Hotels Near Parque de Santurce Teófilo Cruz in San Juan

There are not many Puerto Rico hotels to choose from on Ctrip, and the reviews are limited. Most of them are reproduced on booking. This hotel was chosen at random based on price and location. The hotel is quite old, the rooms are not big and clean, ten minutes drive from the old town, and there are some seaside highway scenery along the way. The hotel has two small swimming pools, which are mainly used to bring baby water. The beach in the hotel is very close, and a nice evening walk. Nearby restaurants, supermarkets, and Star Dad are available. There is a Chinese restaurant opened by Cantonese. The dishes are generally large but expensive, and three people eat ninety dollars quickly. Not recommended if there is no obsession with Chinese food. Breakfast at the hotel is not bad. If the requirements are not high, it is okay to eat enough. After all, the old breakfast is simple. After staying for two days, I got up to prepare for a bath the next day and found that there was no hot water. The parking lot is huge, $ 17 a night.

I will start with the most important reason for the low rating. The hotel is not clean. We had to wear shoes in our room because it had not been swept. The building next door is under construction and work starts at 7am sharp - no sleeping in if your balcony faces that side. Speaking of the balcony, when it rained, water came in from under the door. To help lessen the strong musty smell we had to keep the A/C super cold. There were mosquitos in the room both alive and smeared on the walls - see photos. The bed skirts have not been laundered in a long time. The hallways made me think of a mid-century sanitarium. I told the front desk there was a water leak going down the hall, so they put up a wet floor sign. As the the water continued to flow, the decided to toss a pile of towels on it. The breakfast area was treated by the exterminator during meal time...nope, not ok. Also the breakfast selections were sub-par, nothing fresh. Also they didn't turn on the A/C during the week. The lobby area is a hot mosquito playground. The side door to the courtyard is left open with a mosquito lamp inside the lobby, thus inviting them inside. Make sure stock up on what you may need. While the hotel had water and soda, the vending machines are out of order and appear to be so for quite some time. And they did not have laundry detergent as posted in the laundry area. I did a medium size load that took 2 cycles in the dryer totaling $6. Taking the elevator is a scary experience. If it comes when you push the button. It doesn't always stop evenly with the floor. So be prepared to step up or down when the door opens. And it stops with such a jolt that it actually loosened my hair clip. As stated, on their website, the pool pictured is not at the hotel. And the ”beach club” is about 2 blocks away and is on the water, but the water is not accessible. It is for sunbathing only. The photo of the beach on their website, is not related to the beach club they offer. When we decided to take the long walk to the beach, they didn't have any beach towels available. I would not recommend this hotel, regardless of price.

Location location location! Friendly staff and impeccably clean. Valet was excellent as well. They have a nice restaurant too! La Hacienda (a nice grocery store) is right in front. The perfect place to stay, and will be back for my next trip.

I have had terrible service since checking in. I am a very patient and friendly person who has worked in the service industry and understands how important it is to be nice to hard-working people. At breakfast, I watched three tables come in after me, get serviced, and receive their food before I even got a cup of coffee brought to me and had my order taken. I finally had to go to the waiter stand and ask for my bill so I could pay in leave. Our room never got serviced for cleaning for an entire day even though we were out of the room from early morning till 4 o’clock. I just went to the bar and sat and was ignored by a waiter who helped people on either side of me. I finally got up and left after 30 minutes of saying hello, making eye contact and basically got ignored. I am checking out early and heading to another hotel. I had booked a full week here at the Ocean club. They seem to cater to everyone else around. Perhaps they do not want to encourage white middle age guys staying here. They may want to cater to the younger European crowd.

This was our first stay in this newly renovated “sister”hotel to the Condado Plaza Hotel across the street. I can easily say that this was the best Hilton Garden Inn I have stayed in. The location is just as you cross into the Condado section of San Juan heading east from the cruise ship terminals or at the end if heading from the airport (a $24 taxi ride). It’s a bit quieter than the heart of the Condado. The entire hotel is gleaming— a beautiful airy lobby that opens into the pool area, a breakfast restaurant, and a bar area. We lucked out on an upgrade to a high corner room with panoramic views of the ocean (picture attached) with a wrap around balcony. The room was nicely appointed and definitely upgraded from the previous property. This will be our new favorite when passing through San Juan on the way to adventures beyond. The only negative is the street noise on the side of the hotel but it was balanced by the view in my humble opinion— the view from the other side is of the lagoon also very nice.

The hotel room was very comfortable. The swimming pool brought many people during the day and afternoon, and there was a smell of urine by the pool. The location is also good. A taxi to the old town will cost around 10 knives and will not spend too much on traffic. Breakfast was good too!

We loved our 1 night stay here. Our room was quite large and perfect for our family of 4. The location was central allowing us to easily walk around the area. The decor through out was fun, colorful and had some intresting details. There is lots of roof top seating and great views of the surrounding area. The staff here is great and our check in was a breeze. When we were a little lost trying to find our room a gentleman came to our rescue and escorted us to our room even helping us with our luggage! Unfortunately for me I woke up the next morning with an issue with my eye. I needed to get medical help immediately. The woman at the front desk was a huge help locating the right doctor for me to go to and spoke directly with the office to explain my situation. Sadly I did not get her name but she saved the day!

The staff were more than helpful, from the second we walked in Lewis immediately greeted us with drinks (free open bar) and gave us great tips on how to start our vacation. Also the communication between staff was top notch! I will most definitely be staying here again when I visit back.
