New luxury hotel towers over Havana as Cuba's economic troubles mount and tourism plummets

Soaring above all other buildings in Havana, a new 42-storey hotel that is due to open in Cuba’s capital is causing a stir. Boasting 542 luxury rooms, the Selection La Habana hotel has yet to be inaugurated but is already being criticized — and not only for its unusual shape. Cubans are questioning the government’s allocation of millions of dollars towards luxury tourism during a severe economic crisis while tourism numbers plummet.
