We stayed here at El Convento from 6/1-6/7. Staff are amazing, they are friendly and willing to assist. We had a couple of meals at the courtyard restaurant at the hotel. Food was better than other restaurants in town, but the service needed some improvement for the first time we tried. However, the second time we visited, Indira was quite attentive, friendly, and quick! Thank you to all staff at El Convento! What a historic and beautiful place to stay!

El convento provides a convenient base for exploring Old San Juan for a night or two. The common area of this hotel are really lovely. The evening wine and cheese and morning coffee were a real bonus and we enjoyed them greatly. The room and decor did not match the historic and beautiful common spaces and the bathroom was very tight. There were weddings both nights we were there and it could get a little noisy and the restaurant in the courtyard closed early as a result (without prior notice). I wanted to love this a little more, but would still recommend to friends and family.

This hotel is absolutely stunning—with its rich history, beautiful architecture, and lush plant life, it's a visual delight. However, it was the incredible staff who truly made this the best vacation ever. At the restaurant, Edgard stood out with his warm personality and entertaining stories—like the grackles stealing Splenda from tables and the resident cat, Trixie. George went above and beyond simply handling our bags; he gave us good advice and recommendations, including introducing us to Kenneth, who became our trusted driver. Kenneth not only transported us to the beach and airport but also took us on a heartfelt adventure to Barceloneta, where we searched for the farm where my grandmother grew up—though it may no longer exist. This was more than just a hotel stay; it was an experience filled with kindness, charm, and unforgettable memories.
