This is a beautiful hotel in the heart of Old San Juan, walking distance to all historic sights. There is a variety of restaurants and shops nearby along with access to Taxi and Uber on the main circle (Colombus Circle) one minute walking away. The staff is very helpful and pleasant, check in and check out was very simple. The bar in the lobby is AMAZING! very convenient to have access to hot and cold drinks at any time without having to worry about hauling drinks/water bottles to the room. The rooftop terrace is lovely with breathtaking views of the city. We truly enjoyed our stay and will consider staying at El Colonial if back in SJ.
