sbfanatic Posted February 11, 2012 #1 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Can anyone recommend a good, clean, safe, reasonably priced hotel in San Juan? Will be staying 2 to 3 nights pre cruise the latter part of January. We usually travel with a group of 20 to 25 friends. Any help would be appreciated.

kingoftheicedragons Posted February 12, 2012 #2 Share Posted February 12, 2012 I liked the Hotel Milano that we stayed in pre-cruise. It was something like $90/night. It was clean and safe. We stayed in a rear room, which only has small windows near the top of the wall near the ceiling, but there wasn't anything to see out the back of the hotel anyway. It's located in the SoFo area (South Fortaleza), and centrally located, so it's within easy walking distance to the tourist attractions, pier, plazas, bars and restaurants.

katyjeka Posted February 14, 2012 #3 Share Posted February 14, 2012 We bid on priceline and got Courtyard Marimar for $70 per night. It was a nice hotel, in very good condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HardyA34 Posted February 14, 2012 #4 Share Posted February 14, 2012 We stayed at Da House in Old San Juan and thought it was both clean and safe. For $80 a night, I don't think you can get a better deal right in the heart of it all. Yes the area around it can be loud to some but we enjoyed it. We only stayed there for one night though so 2-3 nights there might be too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I booked it after doing a review that showed that it was anything but typical. Its time to put a bit of funkiness into my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HardyA34 Posted February 18, 2012 #6 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Funky is a great way to describe Da House. Will be a perfect place to start your vacation. Have fun:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loves_Dogs Posted February 18, 2012 #7 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Hampton Inn & Suites. Hotel was clean, comfortable and included a free continental breakfast that was pretty good. There were tons of restaurants within walking distance for dinner too. http://hamptoninn.hilton.com/en/hp/hotels/index.jhtml?xch=1230961738,D4vMP13PPgGPPd2vPLmjDX1GL5HYYn6yZLH97Mb6YYGLmN9VLgnD!-288386249!1329559407289&ctyhocn=SJUHHHX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhotogalMB Posted February 20, 2012 #11 Share Posted February 20, 2012 We just booked two rooms at Posada San Francisco. In walking distance of everything in OSJ, great reviews. $55/night for king bed (2 twins combined) or there are also doubles. Free Wi-Fi. It's a guest house/Hostel so there are shared bathrooms but for one night in the perfect location at that rate, we grabbed them. There is an elevator, shared kitchen, balconies. I wish we were going now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a liquor store or somewhere to buy wine within walking distance of the Hampton? Sorry but I honestly dont remember. However, according to this below post there is a Pueblo Grocery store nearby with wine & liquor. Maybe someone familiar with the area can help? http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=668348&highlight=hampton+inn+liquor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ibcnusoon Posted February 21, 2012 #15 Share Posted February 21, 2012 We are staying at Chateau Cervantes in Old San Juan 1 night pre-cruise. I needed a room with 2 beds (suites have an extra sofa bed) and they were the only hotel in Old San Juan I could find 2 beds in one room. Does anyone know if they have elevators at Chateau Cervantes? I am going on this cruise with my elderly parents and can't imagine us pulling our luggage up 4 flights of steps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasminelee Posted February 21, 2012 #16 Share Posted February 21, 2012 DH and I are disembarking and staying an extra day post cruise-plane doesn't leave until around 4 the next afternoon. Does anyone think we would be able to see OSJ and El Junque in a day and a half? I thought maybe if we took our own luggage off, we could save some time, also. And would we be better off staying in OSJ or closer to the airport? Our flight out is on a Monday, if this makes a difference in traffic thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
