About the Hotel

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.

Reviews for Condado Vanderbilt Hotel

Perfect stay — for adults!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 day ago

The Condado Vanderbilt is a luxury hotel with Spanish charm and impeccable service. The food is excellent and the amenities and location spot on. Gorgeous clean pools and gym, with a beautiful ocean view. Rooms are large and well appointed. Comfy beds. The experience depends on the nature of your trip. Adults and couples will love the stress free vibe. However, this place is not the best for kids. The only pool open to kids is the main one, the others are small plunge pools marked for adults only. The nearby public beach has heavy, heavy surf. While we were there, there was a strong undertow; there are no lifeguards and it is posted as “dangerous for swimming.” We waded, but I would not let my teens swim. There is no game room with foosball or billiards, which would be nice for the younger crew. No volleyball net in the pool. It is just not that kind of place. Which is fine, but know before you go. For me it felt slightly too formal to really unwind, but through no fault of the staff who were so nice and accommodating all the time I started to feel sorry for them!

First class hotel

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 5 days ago

Excellent hotel. Restaurants were really good, especially 1919. Pool area was good. Staff were excellent, especially Amanda, Aneilly and Carl who added to our stay. Some minor complaints- check in was poor, but the hotel understood and gave us a refund. We had 4 rooms and one had a broken thermostat in the air conditioning unit for 3 days and the room stayed at 60 degrees. Some other minor housekeeping issues. The beach was poor. These issues did not take away from the fact that this is a very good hotel

An exquisite gem! Hotel was stunning. Start to finish our experience was magnificent. Staff wonderful. Room was a dream; ocean view, comfy beds, gorgeous bathroom. Beach staff was great - umbrella, chairs, towels provided. Multiple pools w/adult area. HIGHLY recommend this hotel.

The hotel facility was impeccable. The decor was eye catching and classy. The hotel staff was beyond phenomenal. Every single person was knowledgeable about the property and the city. Everyone's advice for places to eat and things to do were wonderful.

Excellent San Juan option

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 4 weeks ago

Stayed there recently for a quick business trip and was pleasantly surprised. I was offered champagne at check in, which was a nice touch. The rooms were very big for a city hotel. The pool area was stunning and I found the service to be very attentive across the property. There are many food and beverage options and a lovely bar. I’d not hesitate to return to this property.
