It’s a beautiful and accommodating experience. It is close to everything in Old San Juan. The staff was very friendly and the hotel was peaceful. We really enjoyed our stay.
We love the history and charm of this place. Have been here before. Location is central but off the beaten trail. Given howw close to Fortaleza we feel very safe. We can walk everywhere in OSJ in an easy effort. OSJ is one of our favorite destinations.
Villa Herencia Hotel was absolutely perfect! The location couldn’t be better—tucked away on a charming cobblestone street just steps from Old San Juan’s most iconic spots, restaurants, and historic sights. The atmosphere is magical, full of character and charm, with beautiful architecture and cozy, elegant touches throughout the property.
Check-in was seamless and easy, and the staff was incredibly welcoming. I secretly planned a proposal during our stay, and the setting couldn’t have been more romantic. The rooftop and interior courtyards made for unforgettable moments—and the photos turned out stunning!
This place truly made our trip unforgettable. Highly recommended for couples, special occasions, or anyone looking to experience the best of San Juan with style and comfort. We will definitely be coming back!
We were charmed by the history, artwork, and the atmosphere of Villa Herencia. It was a fun bonus to soak in the rooftop claw foot bath tubs on the lovely roof top deck in the evening! If you are looking for a small historic boutique hotel in the heart of Old San Juan, look no more! We also recommend taking the elevator to the 6th floor of the sister hotel, Casa Blanca, to take in the views.
Really nicely located and beautifully designed. It’s got such great charm and is pretty central in Old San Juan, it was easy for us to walk around to all the things we had planned in the area. Honestly loved everything about the place and wish we had more time there, the staff was very friendly. There was a small, occasional leak above the bathroom doorway but it wasn’t bad and didn’t lessen anything about our stay. It’s an older building so some small things like that are to be expected, but it’s beautifully kept up, so no complaints from me.
Exactly as advertised: Very Historic and Authentic small hotel in Old Town San Juan.Perfect location walking distance to all.We enjoyed our stay and will recommend it to our friends!!
I loved that the hotel was smack dab in the middle of Old San Juan. The architecture and cultural vibe of the hotel was very authentic.
The hotel had everything I needed. As a solo traveler I was safe and secure. My room, the classic queen, was small, perfect for one, would’ve been a bit tight with two. Outlets were sparse (as expected in a building several hundred years old) and the Flat screen TV didn’t work great. Staff was friendly and welcoming *****.

The property is quiet and out of the busy areas when the cruise ships are in port. It is safe and has a locked front door with a code used by the guests. Lovely and very Old World San Juan. Only thing is that the upstairs room to the left could use a new mattress. Other than that, it’s a great walkable hotel close to many attractions and restaurants.
Charming with old world charm. Unique decor and comfy bed. Nice rooftop area.
Great location for walking around the heart of old San Juan. A little hard to locate the entrance.
