Gran Hotel Manzana Opens in Havana, Cuba.
Cuba’s newest and most luxurious five-star hotel has opened in the heart of Havana, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

There are plenty of bars and restaurants to chose from, including the stunning El Surtidor Pool Terrace & Bar, with stunning panoramic views and a great range of cocktails and tapas made using local ingredients.
