Old San Juan hotel question

[SugarNSpice8104]

Will be sailing from san jaun next year and was wondering about the hotels in or around old san juan. I would like to do some shopping that would be walking distance from the hotel. Hotel Milano has a minimum of 2 nights, so thats out, and the Sheraton is to expensive so thats out. Is there anything else around that area that is moderatly priced?

We are also going next year. We bit the bullet and booked the Milano for 2 nites. With an AARP discount it is cheaper than one nite at the Sheraton:) It is a great location-walking to shops, restaurants, etc........

Do consider Hotwire - just got the Sheraton Old San Juan for $109 on Hotwire. Our date is 11/2 - one night. It is rated as 3-1/2 stars with the following icons - pool, restaurant, casino, high speed internet, business center, gym and tennis nearby. That tennis thing is the clincher and how I knew! Actually, go to betterbidding.com and check out the pinned Hotwire hotels and they spell out all the amenities. BTW - we had already booked this hotel with a cancellable ressie for $199 per night - total savings with all the taxes was $110 per night! We have booked using Hotwire many times and have never been burned.

Does hotel Milano have a pool, and is the breakfast resaraunt free?

[mortypro]

hotel milan as far as i remember no pool but free breakfast

it is a small hotel with small rooms but right in the middle of old san juan

it was perfect for us as we didn't care about the beach or pool

we knew we would be out most of the day

next time we are going to stay there also as we are going to do the rainforest

one day and get on the ship early the next day

it was i think 150 per night in feb, 2008

My wife and I stayed at Howard Johnsons at the Plaza de Armes . . . it's in an old building so the rooms are on the small size and the room we had was window-less . . . but quite frankly it was very quiet and we were just staying the one night and after a day full of flying we appreciated the peace and quiet . . . plus it was close to Pier 4 (we were able to tow our rollable duffles down to the pier with no issues) and the hotel allowed us to store our luggage there until the afternoon with no additional charges. If I left from San Juan again I would definitely consider staying there again.
