For all guests, we strongly recommend that you stay in the "Walled” or "Old" City which is a 10-15 minute Uber or taxi ride from the airport. Specifically we have a Room Block reserved at the Sofitel Legend Santa Clara. There are hotel options for every budget including larger hotels, small boutique hotels and Airbnbs. Some of our suggested hotels are listed below, but feel free to contact Talia or Federico if you have specific questions about a stay or location. We suggest booking early since there are multiple events and weddings in the Old City on any given weekend!
