Life House Little Havana (CLOSED)

This charming boutique hotel in Little Havana boasts high-end amenities for guests (like Le toiletries, Diptyque candles and Egyptian cotton linens by Revival), a lush courtyard where locals are invited to hang, a veggie-centric restaurant called Parcela that opens in March and a forthcoming rooftop bar—the first in the neighborhood. Once you’ve slathered yourself in santal-scented lotion and binged-watched shows on your room’s flatscreen TV, head downstairs for a night out on the town: Life House is a short walk from Little Havana hot spots like Café La Trova and Ball & Chain.
