We stayed at the El Convento during Christmas and it was GREAT! The staff is very friendly and helpful, and the property is fantastic! The history of the hotel and the way it has been resotred really made the stay enjoyable. They have a very nice resturant, Coffee every morning on the terrace, wine and cheese in the afternoon! The location makes it easy to get to everywhere in Old San Juan. The Forts, restaurants, shops...all easily walkable and the people of Puerto Rico were so friendly!!! I can't say enough abuut how great it was to be there at Christmas! We cnat wait to go back! I would definitely stay at the El Convento again!

El Convento is charming and very convenient if you want to be in Old San Juan. The staff, while very friendly, are not as professional as would be expected for this property, and several areas were not well maintained. Housekeeping was also somewhat perfunctory. A lovely hotel that can use some extra care.

What a gem! Gorgeous, historic, and elegant hotel. The history is fascinating. The staff is so lovely! Especially Andrea in the restaurant. She was so helpful and fun! The terrace with the pool, hot tub and views…. Fantastic! The location is absolutely perfect. Strolling day or night was fun and relaxing. I would highly recommend and we will definitely be staying here again!!!

Interesting very old building. Located in the heart of Old San Juan. We have stayed here 4 times. Clean facility, comfortable beds. Rooms are small, but, you’re not here to spend time in your room.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The bed and pillows were on the soft side. The water in the shower didn’t have a lot of pressure and it didn’t heat up too much.

Being a former convent converted to a hotel gave it a unique vibe. Loved the daily wine and cheese happy hour, pool/hot tub, and the AC and wifi worked well. Everything was tidy and clean, excellent Old Town location you could walk everywhere. Staff was responsive.

In an attempt to keep the hotel looking old, they don't fix certain things that should be fixed. The employees are very nice and friendly , but my room was never serviced before three pm.

Our stay was exceptional. Even though we were redirected to another hotel the first night, the hotel staff made sure we were probably taking care of. Hotel is super charming, the staff is very helpful, and friendly and the room was clean and comfortable. Overall, a very pleasant stay. A special mention to Antonio at the reception for going above and beyond.
