The conservation of Cuban World Heritage cities is based on public initiatives geared towards the restoration of properties with recognized architectural value, while many other buildings maintain their original characteristics thanks to the investment of smaller touristic entrepreneurs. The aim of this article, following rigorous fieldwork, is the analysis of such interventions in Cienfuegos. To that end, the location and characteristics of these hostels have been contextualized according to stages of urban development and pre-revolutionary architectural typologies, all of which signals the unquestionable heritage value of the so-called Pearl of the South.
