La Guarida

La Guarida

This mansion was built in 1913, and although it needs a restoration it has the charm of those buildings from the beginning of the last century.

Located in Havana Center, when you reach it, you will be able to feel the Cuban daily life, and enter into the Cuban way of life, the voices of the neighbors or the tenders of clothes put to dry.

It was one of the main stages of the movie «Strawberry and Chocolate» before opening this restaurant.

Among its decoration you can see objects from the film, portraits of the Cuban revolutionary Jose Marti or symbols of the Cuban religion.
