El Convento Hotel History in San Juan, Puerto Rico

Celebrate more than 360 years of tradition at our luxury old San Juan hotel in Puerto Rico. As the first Carmelite Convent in the Americas, it housed the nuns for 252 years until closing a few days before Christmas in 1903. Vacant for a decade, the abandoned building served as a retail store, a dance hall, and, for the next 40 years, a flophouse without running water, sanitary facilities, or electricity.

Opened on Jan. 27, 1962 as El Convento Hotel, it offered a tranquil, European-style alternative to the glitzy hotels lining the Condado strip. Since that time, we’ve maintained a high standard of luxury and style – constantly improving our amenities and recreational services. Notable present-day features of our boutique-style Puerto Rico luxury hotel include:

Named the premier “Small Luxury Hotel” in Puerto Rico

Oldest member of Historic Hotels of America

Daily Manager’s reception, serving a variety of wine and a variety of international cheeses on La Veranda terrace

Plunge pool and heated jacuzzi, offering breathtaking views of San Juan Bay
