The 20 Best Hotels in Puerto Rico

"Hotel El Convento's bright yellow Spanish Colonial structure is a true landmark in Old San Juan, right up there with the 16th-century cathedral that faces it and the forts and battlements that first established the city. El Convento's 81 recently-refurbished rooms and suites either have views of the Old City or the San Juan Bay; those overlooking the San Juan Cathedral, among the oldest in the Western hemisphere, are especially transportive. Andalusian tile floors, modern marble bathrooms, and Juliet balconies or private terraces grace each room; mahogany furniture, louvered doors, beams, and ceiling fans nod to the hotel’s history. It's blessed reminder that there's much more to San Juan than piña coladas on the beach. There's nowhere else in the United States where one can stay in a nearly 400-year-old building in a 500 year-old city. El Convento is perfect for those who crave an alternative to the island's resorts." - Kathleen Squires
