Gorgeous Property
Gorgeous hotel, would love to stay there again! The room was very comfortable and well appointed. We ate in the hotel restaurant and the food was delicious! A nice touch was the bottle of wine welcoming us to Puerto Rico. They also had a wine and cheese happy hour.

Jesus, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Unforgettably Wonderful!
When staying in Old San Juan, we always stay at El Convento. It's absolutely centrally-located and easy walking distance to everything. However, also far enough from the main plazas that it is quiet in the evenings. The staff are friendly and go out of their way to accommodate. A BIG thank you to Jesus, our favorite bartender! He was amazing and always with a smile. The front desk was incredibly helpful with local 'must-go' suggestions including best time to visit. And, a smiling thank you to our room steward who stopped by every evening with chocolates! El Convento is wonderful and and an unforgettable experience!

Dan, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.
