Probably the BEST customer service I have ever had in a hotel. I will book a room here anytime I travel to PR in the future. The location is great, the room was clean, they have an open bar for guests but what won me over was the incredible, friendly and super caring staff! Thank you for making our stay (and my boyfriend’s first Puerto Rico visit) memorable for all the right reasons.

We enjoyed our stay at El Colonial. Great location. Very clean. The balcony and the street view was definitely worth it!! We could see El Morro from our apartment. If you can get past the 4 flights and no stairs, it’s a lovely hotel. We’ll be coming back!
