The Iberostar Grand Packard owns one of Havana’s defining corners: where the leafy Paseo del Prado meets the Malecón and the open sea. The name salutes a 1911 classic; the hotel itself is emphatically contemporary — a grand-class flagship whose party trick is an infinity pool that appears to spill straight onto the seafront boulevard below. One length at golden hour, with the waves breaking across the road, justifies the trip by itself.
This is Iberostar’s top “Grand” tier, and it shows: adults-focused polish, butler-style attention in the upper categories, a spa and gym that earn their floor space, and a breakfast spread that requires strategy. Rooms are sleek and generously sized, the best of them staring down the Prado’s bronze lions or out over the Straits of Florida; corner suites capture both.
Position-wise it’s the best of Havana’s two worlds. Old Havana’s plazas begin across the Prado; the Malecón’s sunset promenade starts at the curb; Vedado’s music and paladares are a short classic-car hop along the water. You can walk to the Museo de la Revolución between breakfast and lunch, and be back for the pool’s blue hour.
The Packard suits travellers who want scale, view and service in one address — honeymooners, style-driven couples, and anyone for whom the pool photo matters almost as much as the pool. Rooftop tables and sea-view categories go first; tell our desk your dates and we’ll hold the right ones.
Booking Iberostar Grand Packard with Cuba Luxury Rent
Every booking here is request-based and personal. Tell us your dates, your room preferences and who’s travelling, and our Havana desk confirms availability very soon — usually within four hours, Havana time. You pay at the hotel; there is no online prepayment. Rates are on request, and because we ask people rather than algorithms, the rate we return is often better than what the portals show. Add airport transfers in a restored classic car, a yacht day from Marina Hemingway, restaurant reservations or a private guide — one concierge contact arranges your whole stay, from the first message to your flight home.
