Reviews for Hotel El Convento

Beautiful room views!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 days ago

We stayed one night at El Convento for the wedding of our son and now lovely wife. It was perfect for us to get ready before the ceremony at Plazuela La Rogativa and for the reception at El Convento. The room had a beautiful view to the San Juan Bay and was the perfect backdrop for the pictures before the wedding. The hotel is a very special colonial building and the rooms are modern and updated. Many thanks to the Director of Catering Fabiola Cruz for her support during the planning of the wedding reception- since we met during the wedding menu tasting to the day of the wedding ( even helping us -at the last minute- finding a tuxedo bow tie). Fabiola and her team swiftly partnered with the wedding coordinator and other suppliers making the celebration one very special! Thanks to all!

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!

Good Location and Lovely Historic Building

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

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.
