When railroad tycoon Frederick William Vanderbilt built the Condado Vanderbilt Hotel, part of the Legend collection of Preferred Hotels & Resorts, in 1919 it was Puerto Rico's only luxury hotel – President and Eleanor Roosevelt stayed here, part of a long list of notable guests. If the architecture looks familiar, it might be because the design firm also drew up the plans for New York's Grand Central Terminal. Graceful archways and sweeping staircases remain intact in this fully restored landmark, which presides over the Atlantic Ocean with two guestroom towers that are sumptuously modern.

I had the best experience at this hotel. I visited in September with three of my girlfriends for the Bad Bunny concert, and from the moment we arrived until the moment we left, everything was amazing. The hotel itself is beautiful, but the employees made it extra special. George and Bridget were so welcoming and friendly. Thank you so much, Condado Vanderbilt! I highly recommend this hotel and will definitely come back when I visit Puerto Rico again with my family.

I have stayed already 2 times at this property, but not during my most recent visit to Puerto Rico. We did return to The Vanderbilt, because of Christian! We had a spectacular time and my partner also celebrated her birthday month! We have received the best hospitality and service from Christian at the VC Lounge, no surprise there. He is by far one of the best people I have come across and he takes pride and joy in what he brings to the table, no pun intended. The tapas and drinks were by far the best we have had, kudos to the chef. Also Miguel at the VC Lounge did not disappoint either. Gracias Miguel! Keep it up and hope the Vanderbilt reocfnthe best workers in the realm. Thank you!

We went to visit our new found friend from our previous stays at the Condado Vanderbilt. Although we did not stay this time at the hotel, we revisited the lounge for tapas and drinks during our last days in Puerto Rico. Christian does not disappoint and his colleague Miguel also did a great job! Their service and welcoming is by far one of the best I have received, and I have traveled and dined and have had really great dining experiences. The tapas were great and we were content with the drinks! The mojito and Negroni, really, really nice. Thank you Christian and Miguel! I will miss Puerto Rico!

Although the hotel is a bit “tired” looking the staff is very polite and aim to please. A special shout out to Kevin at the beach. He went above and beyond. Every morning he had 4 lounge chairs and umbrellas ready and waiting for us. His friendly, polite and attentive service was very much appreciated.

I needed a room with walk in shower. The front desk staff were helpful and friendly. They handled my request perfectly. They asked me to wait as the room requested was not ready yet. I only waited a short time. The room was spacious and the bathroom exactly what I requested. The hotel is beautiful and all the staff went out of their way to make me feel welcome. The location is perfect with beautiful views on the ocean.
