Mystique Regis Habana by Royalton, the newest Blue Diamond Resorts property in Cuba, in set to open its doors Sept. 1. The 61-room adults-only hotel has been completely renewed while still reflecting the charm of Old Havana in a privileged location, just a few steps away from the Paseo Central park.

Located at the intersection of Paseo del Prado and Calle Colon, in the historic centre of Old Havana (declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO), the property promises to take guests back to the early 1900s era when travellers all around the globe flocked to Havana, at the time one of the most luxurious and modern cities in the world.

“This property is truly a hidden gem restored and rescued from the early 1990s,” says Mohamad Fawzi, Managing Director for Blue Diamond Resorts Cuba. “It shows our commitment to this region, where we continue to grow and take this rich destination to more markets.”

With a decoration where no detail was spared, the authentic and modern boutique hotel, owned by Grupo de Turismo Gaviota, offers two restaurants, a rooftop bar, café, and a lobby bar with authentic Cuban mixology.

Rooms exude classic décor, including bathtubs, coffee pod machines, and minibars contrasting to the elegant classic style that includes hangers for hats and canes, shown in each room. The top floor features rooms with terraces ideal for room service breakfast overlooking the city.

The new property follows the summer opening of the rebranded Royalton Habana, a 250-room hotel located at Paseo del Prado and the Malecón.
