Top Plaza de Armas Hotel Reviews

Hotel Milano

8/10 Good

"Great place to stay if planning on cruising from Port near by. Some in walking distance if you want to log luggage on the streets or you can take a taxi or Uber. Hotel was under renovation at the time. Stagg very, very helpful and welcomed any questions and willing to give guidance as to what is around. Great place to explore! I only request for hangers and places to hang clothing. Steamer in room is great! Places to eat are close by, walk and explore the place."

"Excelente localización en el viejo San Juan cerca de todo ambiente y decoración muy buena. Pero el aire hace mucho ruido."

La Terraza de San Juan

8/10 Good

"The staff was very nice. Our room was large. The water in the shower never got warm the entire 4 days we were there. I will add , we chose not to complain about it since there was an ongoing water shortage on the island and we didn’t want to seem ungrateful… lol The bar on site was closed the entire 4 days we stayed ( Aug 21st-24th) a tad disappointed with that. Breakfast wasn’t available the 1st morning but was the next three mornings and it was very good. The location of the hotel was wonderful. We walked a lot but everything felt close ."

Casa Las Ruinas Boutique Hotel

8/10 Good

"La estancia fue agradable y el hotel estuvo bien en general. Cumplió con lo esperado y no tuvimos inconvenientes."
