Andre Visser, an international fashion designer and abstract artist from Amsterdam, and his partner Sandy Solano, a professional dancer and musician from Havana, welcome you to their exclusive and privately-owned A|S Boutique Residency, a magnificent colonial mansion right in the heart of the historical center of Old Havana, Cuba; declared a world heritage site by UNESCO. The small hotel is nestled in the neighbourhood San Isidro, which is on the 2022 list of THE COOLEST NEIGHBOURHOODS OF THE WORLD by TIME OUT.

As refined as it is welcoming, as chic as it is casual, as elegant as it is cool. A sensual place of unconventional luxury and creative living, with a sense of bohemian minimalism and unapologetic beauty. Historical fixtures blend together with European contemporary design. A reflection of nobility and modernity in a singular urban oasis. This is not just another place to stay, this is a passion project, oblivious to the mainstream.
