closest / other hotel recommendations for RCL cruise

[Docbizarro]

Leaving on a royal carribean cruise out of San Juan end of June this year.

 

1) what are the closest hotels to the port that royal carribean leaves out of? are there any that you can walk to the port from?

2) If there are no hotels that are that close to the port, and you have to take a taxi shuttle either way, what are some recommendations people have? preferably nothing too pricey (around $200 or less per night for 2 adults in 1 room)

Yes there are hotels in Old San Juan that are within walking distance (assuming you don't have a lot of luggage) or short taxi ride.

 

Couple of reasonable places mentioned in this thread

Your answer is incorrect regarding hotels within walking distance . OP is on Royal Caribbean.  Royal Caribbean departs from the Pan American cruise terminal, not Old San Juan, so there are no hotels within walking distance of the cruise pier. A short taxi ride will be necessary from any hotel .

Oops.   Thanks for the correction.

Take a look at the Hyatt Place/City Center.  Less than $200 (taxes and fees included) may be a bit optimistic but I think you can get a ‘competitive’ rate.
