Featuring local artwork and a relaxing terrace, this Old San Juan hotel is less than 3 km from the Castillo de San Cristobal. An honor bar is located inside the hotel.

Tiled floors and a private patio are found in each exotic room of the Villa Herencia Hotel. A flat-screen TV and private bath with amenities are also included.

From the moment I walked in, I fell in love with this hotel. From the romantic canopy bed and gorgeous rooftop with string lights, a hot tub, and friendly neighborhood cats to the water fountains and live orchids and bromeliads everywhere you look. The aesthetic of Ville Herencia is a sublime blend of historic and modern from its architecture to the artwork covering every wall. The rooms had air conditioning but also the option of windows or opening the doors to the patio. The bed was extremely comfortable. The property felt very secure and was in an amazing location for sightseeing or dinning and dancing. Check in was effortless and the staff let us leave our bags while we explored the city after check out. The hardest part was leaving.

A block from the beach, Best Western Plus Condado Palm Inn & Suites, offers the best location, a sun terrace with a heated swimming pool, free Wi-Fi and excellent service. This hotel is located in the heart of Condado, and 1.2 miles from Old San Juan City.

Location to the Beach and proximity to great restaurants and the casinos for an easy night out. CVS and Walgreens are close and a definite plus. Taxi's into Old San Juan were $15 or $20 USD (depending on vehicle size) and waited at the front of the hotel - very reasonable. If booking an excursion, the Marriott across the street was on the excursion listing for pick up hotels - very convenient as well. The rooms are basic and cleaned daily - the beds were comfortable. The courtyard is comfy with the pool and large hot tub and kept clean. Staff are very friendly and accommodating.
