Price: $50-60CUC

alojamiento@dolores.co.cu Popular with tour groups, this 40-room hotel's 26 modern cabins might lack character but are well equipped, with TVs, fridges and kitchenettes. Located 3km out of town on the scenic banks of the moss-green Guaurabo River, boat trips are available downstream to the river's mouth at La Boca. Other activities include horse riding and Cuban country-music evenings, and there's a swimming pool, a restaurant and a bar as well. Price: $60-80CUC

recepcion@iberostar.trinidad.co.cu This fabulously plush hotel on Parque Céspedes is full of understated luxury, with just one or two ostentatious touches.
