Hotel is delightful. Staff extremely accommodating. We could hear a lot of outside noises from our room. Didn’t bother us at all, but could be a problem for others. The Nespresso machine was very appreciated. Rooftop bar wasn’t open when we were there, but we could still sit up there, and it was pretty and peacefu

Centrally located

The hotel is located in a great area of Old Town. It has a lovely staff and big clean rooms. The only issue is the street noise, especially on the weekend.

We loved staying in Old San Juan! The history is amazing and the whole area feels so unique! Decanter Hotel was an awesome location to explore OSJ and our room was spacious! There is some street noise, but that is to be expected when staying in the city! A very neat old building but everything was functional! We had drinks on the rooftop and enjoyed the beautiful view of the old cathedral. Unfortunately the rooftop bar was not open while we were there but we still got to use the space, which was great!

Great location

Great location of a boutique hotel. Comfortable rooms. A chair to sit in would be appreciated. Also, the desk staff, though friendly, were not very helpful in answering questions.
