Hostal D'Cordero

Hostal D 'Cordero is a house located in the center of the city, very close to Leoncio Vidal Park, in the historical center of Santa Clara. Built in 1930 with eclectic style for residence of Dr. Elio Fileno de Cárdenas, who was Senator of the Republic for the province of Las Villas from 1940 to 1948. The property has 5 comfortable private rooms, high strut, with natural ventilation and air conditioning. The first of the rooms is decorated in Venetian style, followed by another one that has an elegant Louis XVI furniture, both with old baths with marine motifs. Also, room number 3 responds to the taste of the decade of the 50 with all its restored pieces and an extensive bathroom that also responds to the way of the time. As a special detail this piece holds a large-scale painting by local artist Juan Ramón Valdés Gómez (Yiki). The last of the rooms stands out for its Louis XV decoration, a large window with beautiful stained glass windows and a living room with wicker furniture in the Diana style, as well as an abundant collection of Cuban and foreign paintings, old and contemporary. The rest of the house also remains decorated with several collections of paintings, porcelains, crystals, bronzes and lamps, among other elegant objects. The living room and the parquet show beautiful mosaics imported from Italy and furniture that belonged to the Cuban poet Dulce María Loynaz, National Literature Prize in 1987 and Miguel de Cervantes Prize in 1992. It also has a large central courtyard surrounded by a corridor with graceful columns, ornamental plants and a pergola that invites to rest and inspires tranquility, as well as an old fountain that represents the logo of the house.
