We had an amazing experience at the Decanter hotel. From the moment of our arrival we noticed the welcoming attitude of the reception staff. They were very informative and answered all our questions as far as places to go. The room was clean and very spacious with many amenities including microwave and wine glasses. The A/C was fantastic! The coffee machine in the atrium was one of our favorite perks. The bar at the restaurant was will stocked and the appetizers were amazing. Roberto took care of us at the bar and he was great. We went to the roof top and that was our favorite place. The drinks, the staff and the service were top notch. Katia's customer service and friendliness should be the standard for all in the industry! We enjoyed the roof top so much that we visited three times and look forward to visiting them in the future. Thank you Decanter for the great experience!

The location of the hotel is in the heart of San Juan. Although we couldn’t enjoy the rooftop due to rain many ppl say the rooftop is great! The staff is amazing and very helpful! Very clean and quiet.

Not what I expected

Elevator was Inop, rooftop was unavailable due to rain and if the rooftop was closed so was the restaurant, also don't expect to do early check in or a late check out. The location was rest so if all you want is that then you'll be fine.

Very close to everything in Old San Juan. Only downside is parking access is challenging as the church parking was not available due to Easter weekend activities so we ended up having to return our rental.

This hotel is smack dab in the middle of the busiest area of Old San Juan. If you're a night owl, this is a good spot. If you are looking for quiet nights, this is NOT a good spot. Beautiful building on the outside. Needs a little update inside.
