Reviews for The Royal Sonesta San Juan

Great time at Sonesta. Friendly staff, comfortable room, very clean and the experience has been nothing but excellent.

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 day ago

We came to celebrate my husband’s birthday and picked this place due to the reviews and I’m so happy we did. It has been amazing. It’s been a great experience. Everyone from the reception to the cleaning crew have been nothing but amazing. They make you feel like it’s your home away from home. Pool is immaculate beach is to die for! Happy hour is so refreshing and fun. Love every minute. I will be coming back for sure. Adrianna and Emmanuel were so attentive during breakfast. You should make sure to ask for them.

Refused Hurricane Accommodation Despite Safety Concerns

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 days ago

Had reservations August 16-19, 2025 during Category 4-5 Hurricane Erin with National Weather Service warnings for San Juan. As a parent traveling with a special needs son, I couldn't risk our safety in hurricane conditions. Hotel staff dismissed this as "just going to be some rain" when I called the morning of August 16th. Manager never returned calls despite multiple requests. No accommodation offered. Discovered Sonesta's Sint Maarten properties waive hurricane cancellation fees for Category 1+ storms, yet Puerto Rico gets no such protection for the same threats. Why do some Sonesta Caribbean guests receive hurricane accommodation while others don't? Staff blamed "third-party booking" as excuse. Guest safety should be universal regardless of booking method. Poor crisis management and inconsistent policies across Sonesta brand. Choose hotels with consistent hurricane protection policies, especially if traveling with family members who have special needs.

Birthday Vacation

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 days ago

Great stay , hotel room was nice , I’ve stayed prior and love the grounds , the pros: hotel room , pool, staff, beach area, valet parking Cons: Atmosphere, no casino, no night life , but everything is within walking distance , Best of all : William at front doors he is a Puerto Rican Icon, have seen him for over 20 years there and make you feel like family ,

Worst resort experience

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 4 days ago

I don’t know where to begin. Overall over priced everywhere you go inside the resort. Room needed maintenance every night. Breakfast 50$ a plate. Pool closes at 9pm, I mean absolutely no entertainment. I mean when you pay 500+ a night. You’d think there would be things to do or a meal or snacks available.

Perfection!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 5 days ago

August 2025 The Royal Sonesta is the only place I will stay in Puerto Rico. The location is prime, the hotel is beautiful and the staff, namely Wanda ,our waitress,from Aleli Restaurant at our daily breakfast and Luis Ramirez from the front desk , were two of the most beautiful, warm and friendly people we have the pleasure of meeting. I highly recommend you ask for both of them. All of the staff is superb but they both were exceptional. Thank you Royal Sonesta! Read less

Overall great vacation. Cant wait to start planning the next with Luxury Link. Please note this is a great hotel but showing a lot of wear. Here are some specifics:

Location - Great
Pool - Great
Akua Pool bar and staff - Great
Beach bar and staff - Great
Aleli cafe breakfast and staff - Great

I didn't know that there was a gift shop or an Italian restaurant until my second day there (not listed on hotel website).

Hotel "club" room - Good, clean, comfortable

Would have been Great if the sliding door from the room to the pool area wasn't so hard to use. My wife gave up after day one and walked around to get to pool. This was a BIG PROBLEM for us as it kind of defeats the purpose.

Poor water pressure.

The club room comes with buffet brekfast so the Luxury Link perk was kind of redundant.

Karaya bar - very good, usually busy, so service was a bit slow but food was good.
