Truly First Rate Hospitality

After staying in hundreds of hotels in the past few years traveling with my job, I can say that this was one of my best experiences if not the best. I facilitate retreats and training for Army Recruiters in addition to other travels, and we were extremely well taken care of by the front desk, the group coordinator, and the hospitality team, especially Mr. Isaac Varon, and his team Harvey and Felix, as well as Jaders and Pedro poolside. Royal Sonesta has upgraded this hotel from good to great, and it is apparent that they are aiming at excellence in all they do. Each staff member we interacted with had a guest-focus and sincere empathy if anything needed to be resolved. Remarkable people in a great hotel in a lovely beachfront setting. I have every intention of returning with my family on a personal retreat someday soon.

Welcome to Isla Verde

Let’s talk about the Embassy Suites by Hilton San Juan Great prices for either a planned or last minute trip as was in my case to Puerto Rico. It’s definitely a family friendly hotel but still a great place with no family in tote. Location: It’s not beach front property however the beach is within walking distance. The Playa Isla Verde is approx 1.5 blocks from the hotel. You’ll receive wristbands at check-in that will give you access to the pool, beach and breakfast. You’ll also receive your evening cocktail Atrium: Coquí, Coquí (you hear the sounds of the native frog welcomes) Food: The little restaurant El Patio stays popping. The food & drinks are great! I had the chicken chicharrones which comes with tostones. The cocktails give that tropical vibes… Daily breakfast includes made to order omelets, fruit, waffles, farina and a daily rotation of meats (sausage, diced ham , corned beef hash, etc.) Rooms: The rooms are older and could probably use some updating. With that being said, it’s super spacious. If you’re able to get a higher floor room with a pool view. Do it! Great views of the pool, the tool bridge with the Puerto Rican flags and parts of the airport are all with in view. All in All, the value of the hotel is worth the stay!

HAMPTON INN & SUITES SAN JUAN IS SIMPLE AND CLEAN

Reviewed By nnjprman

My partner and I spent a week at the Hampton Inn & Suites from 5/19-5/26 and we were very satisfied with our stay. The room was very simple and clean. It was not a luxurious place. It was a standard Hampton Inn & Suites. When we arrived we upgraded to a King Suite and it suited our needs. We normally stay at the Embassy Suites down the street but decided to go to the Hampton due to the price. We did not regret our decision. You get the same or better at the Hampton for less price. They gave us some beach chairs we could borrow at the beach, no umbrella. First come, first serve. We lucked out and found some shade underneath some palm trees at the beach. The continental breakfast was simple but very good for us. It was well organized and plentiful. Although we had planned to go out for breakfast at our favorite spot near the hotel, we ended up not going and had the breakfast at the hotel. The beach was a two-three block walk, no big deal for us. Our room was cleaned almost everyday we were there. The staff were friendly and helpful. The pool area was simple with a fairly small pool but it was fine, nothing fancy. We only swam in it once since we are more beach people. Since this hotel is so close to the airport, you can hear the planes take off and land. This is epecially noticable at the pool. We could also hear it in our room but not too much. It really didn't bother us since we knew this before booking this hotel. We were ok with it. In general the hotels in Puerto Rico are extremely expensive and offer very little but we found the Hampton to be reasonably priced in comparison. I would definitely stay there again.
