Villa Herencia is ideally located in old San Juan, and the hotel building has a long history, apart from being one of the most beautiful hotels we’ve ever visited.
It is a boutique hotel in its purest form, perfect for people who want that little extra, the authentic old San Juan experience. It’s probably less for families with small children and more for couples looking for a luxurious getaway, and golly, it’s perfect for the latter!
We stayed in room H8, one of the sundeck suites, and we just loved it! This is definitively the room you want to stay in since it’s both located on the sundeck level and has its own ”private” patio just outside. Perfect for those evening drinks after sunset.
The room itself is a piece of art and history, as is the hotel itself. Not the biggest suite, but the patio makes up for it. Absolutely clean and fresh, very nice bathroom, fridge, safety deposit box, AC, WiFi, TV etc. Everything you need.
The sundeck is really nice with bathtubs instead of a pool, daybed, lots of lounge furniture etc.
Breakfast is included, and what a nice room to have it in! Definitively nice to meet other guests and share experiences before taking on a new day of adventure in old San Juan!
Really, everything’s so nice with this hotel, the staff is so friendly and helpful, and some are also really skilled in telling about the history of the hotel building and indeed old San Juan as well.
We would totally recommend this hotel!
