The 20 Best Hotels in Puerto Rico

"Travelers who want to be immersed into the historic center of San Juan find this new boutique a polished, well-located option. Business travelers courting the cryptorati like its proximity to headquarters of players in bitcoin, NFTs etc.  It’s no surprise that this new opening comes from the same hotel group that runs the historic El Convento around the corner, with an adroit blending of old and new world design. The building dates to the 19th century, and has spent much of its history as a place where things get done, serving as a post office, a tax collector, the US Department of Agriculture and Commerce and the Puerto Rico Department of State. Towering, wood-beamed ceilings make the 43 rooms and suites feel particularly spacious and airy. Juliet balconies, checkerboard floors, spacious showers and small accents of color complement a pleasingly minimalist and modernist décor. The rooftop pool offers a relaxing refuge from the Old City bustle along with a bird’s eye view of San Juan harbor." - Kathleen Squires
