Located not far from downtown section of the city, in a quiet green area. Holguin City's squares are many and grand; and are charming, peaceful and buzzing depending on the time, and day of the week. It seems too that hardly a week goes by without some kind of festival or event. Hotel Pernik is a good base to visit Gibara, other charming towns, beaches, lakes, hills, and archaeological sites of Cuban aborigines devoted to farming, with evidence of the earliest Cuban inhabitants.
