About Hotel Iberostar Grand Trinidad
The Grand Trinidad Hotel could well be Cuba's finest provincial hotel. Offering a much-needed deluxe option for visitors to this most popular of Cuban colonial cities. The hotel is located in the centre of Trinidad, a jewel of colonial architecture founded in the 16th century and declared World Heritage by UNESCO in 1988.
The Iberostar opened in 2006 and has justifiably earned plaudits as a true five-star hotel. The hotel is a conversion of an unassuming, two-story, mint-green 19th-century mansion on the north side of Parque Céspedes. Beyond the front doors, however, and... wow! The lobby, supported by columns, gleams with marble, travertine, and polished hardwoods. Halogens inset in the ceiling bespeak a contemporary styling reflected in the sumptuous furnishings of the atrium lobby lounge graced by wrought-iron railings and a Moorish-style fountain. Guest rooms recreate the gracious ambiance of yesteryear with their mahogany colonial reproduction furnishings, including four-poster beds and gold, red, and cream color schemes. And the quality mattresses here guarantee a good night's sleep. Bathrooms are clad in gray local marble and have bidets, large walk-in showers and separate marble-topped tubs, marble countertops, and embossed fluffy towels. Even if you don't stay here, the ritzy restaurant is worth a splurge. The half-moon bar with high stools would do New York proud. There's a games room with large pool table, and the wood-paneled cigar lounge-bar has tempting deep-cushioned seating from which it is hard to escape. And the fancy jewelry store speaks to the kind of clientele who can afford the hotel's stiff pricing. No children are allowed to sully the calm of this genteel place. If you're going to splurge at one place in Cuba, let it be here. © 2009 Nigel Hunt

Guide to Trinidad
The best-preserved colonial city in Cuba, in the shadow of the Escambray mountains, Trinidad was not even linked by road to the rest of the country until the 1950s.
Declared a national monument by the Cuban government this city is very much as it was four centuries ago, the beauty of its baroque architecture and cobblestones squares harking back to a bygone era when Trinidad was a key player in the Caribbean slave trade.
There are many interesting things to see (e.g Guamuhaya Archaeological Museum, Plaza Mayor, Church of Santa Ana, Calle Simon Bolivar....) but the most impressive of all Trinidad's many museums is Trinidad Municipal Museum and a visit to the Taller Alfarero, a large ceramics workshop where traditional techniques are still used is also worthwhile.
