11 Best Hotels in San Juan, Puerto Rico | Condé Nast Traveler

"Tucked into the historic center, this polished boutique offers a well-located, historically rich stay in a 19th-century building that once served as a post office, tax office, the US Department of Agriculture and Commerce, and the Puerto Rico Department of State; it's run by the same group behind El Convento. Towering wood-beamed ceilings make the 43 rooms and suites feel airy, while Juliet balconies, checkerboard floors, spacious showers, and small accents of color complement a pleasingly minimalist, modernist décor. The rooftop pool provides a relaxing refuge from the Old City bustle along with a bird’s-eye view of San Juan harbor." - Jessica Chapel

Palacio Provincial — Hotel Review | Condé Nast Traveler

"Why book? 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. Set the scene Guests realize they are stepping into an architectural gem from the minute they enter into the marble-floored lobby with an elaborately tiled, wood-banistered staircase at its center. These are indeed historic digs, lovingly preserved and sparingly modernized. Tall, beamed ceilings beg for “looking up” while arched galleries hint that there’s much more to explore, each corridor leading to lovely niches where one might take tea or read in front of a trickling fountain. A sunny courtyard serves as the centerpiece for dining, drinking and lounging. The backstory 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 rooms 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. Food and drink Brunch at Consular Restaurant and Bar is a highlight, with menu items such as pancake tacos with scrambled eggs, smoked salmon and avocado, and a Mallorca sandwich, a local specialty dressed up with avocado mousse, eggs, tomato, lettuce and fried sweet potato. The cocktail menu does not disappoint either, with creations such as a pink mojito with watermelon, rum, lime and mint. Lunch and dinner focus on crowd-pleasers like pizza, churrasco and roast chicken. The spa No spa. The neighborhood/area Every highlight of the Old City lies within walking distance, from the Cathedral de San Juan to the historic forts of El Morro and San Cristobal along with an abundance of shops, bars, and restaurants.

The service Friendly, helpful, eager, casual and knowledgeable with a cache of recommendations at the ready. For families 18 and over only Accessibility The entrance, elevator and common areas of the hotel are ADA accessible. One room is ADA compliant. Anything left to mention?
