Perfect stay

The staff was excellent, the room was perfect, and the 24 hour bar with complimentary drinks was incredible. Next time I'm in Old San Juan I will definitely be staying at El Colonial.

Great hotel in the middle of old San Juan

This was my second time at El Colonial. As the first time, it was great. Staff are fantastic and so friendly and helpful. I always feel very welcome. Sadly I always just stay one night. But it is definitely worth to make my way here from the airport. Hotel is in the midst of old San Juan and lots of restaurants and bars are just a short walk away. Very nice roof terrace for some drinks or just some peace and quiet. I will certainly stay again.

Brilliant hotel

We absolutely loved this hotel! The staff were incredibly kind and very friendly. The open bar was an added treat which we really enjoyed and made friends at the bar. The building itself is beautiful, with lovely style and decor. The room was more on the basic side but that was fine as we spent more time exploring beautiful San Juan. The location was excellent. We would 100% stay again, thank you

Cute hotel

The staff at this hotel were friendly and helpful. The open bar in the lobby was nice . Check in was smooth and Natalia and Marcos as well as the other front desk staff were there whenever we had a question. The only suggestion is that the showers should have grab bars for safety.

6/10 Good

Its ok

No elevator and they couldnt get us a room on a lower floor. We had a room on the 3rd floor and they did bring our luggage up. My boyfriend has a slight handicap so walking up was an issue. The person who checked us out did not want to bring our luggage down....he eventually did but with disdain. The room is very small. The bathroom did not have a vanity...just sink, toilet and shower...no where to set toiletries. The plus was unlimited free rum drinks and a bottle of wine.

Nice place!

I would absolutely stay here again. It's pretty awesome to be handed your room key and asked if you need a beer. The internet worked fairly well, the rooms were clean, and I could not hear any riff raff outside. Also, it's very well-located in the heart of everything.
MATTHEW, 1-night trip

Centrally located in Old San Juan was a great advantage. Would not hesitate to stay here again
