E Camino De Hierro

Comfortably nestled on the Plaza de El Gallo (formerly Plaza de la Soledad), hotel Camino de Hierro (meaning Iron Road and referring to the subject railways) enjoys a privileged location in the historic center of Camaguey - declared a UNESCO Cultural Heritage Site in 2008. The two story building with wrap-around balconies and a cute sidewalk terrace hints at the magic hiding behind the colonial facade. An interior, tiled patio - de rigueur in colonial times - welcomes visitors into the hushed elegance that is the Camino de Hierro. Soft yellow walls contrast with the green wooden balconies and balustrades here; the addition of lush plants and orchids give it a tropical feel.
