Cons

This 52-room budget-friendly hotel — a former Howard Johnson — has just enough character to fit in with the Old San Juan’s historic vibe. Rooms (many without windows) have basic wood furnishings, flat-screen TVs, and air-conditioning units. Suites facing the street have charming French doors that open up to cobblestone views. Wi-Fi is free in the lobby and atrium lounge (and will be in rooms soon, too). The hotel does not have a restaurant or bar. There’s a free trolley and taxi stand out front, or ask the hotel about its recommended parking garage — the cheapest in the district. Make sure to experience the 1920s elevator at least once, though stairs are quicker.

Scene

Draws easygoing budget travelers looking for a place to sleep in a central location

The hotel’s attractive pink and white Spanish Colonial building exudes charm on a busy cobblestoned street, where taxi drivers scout for their next fares and traffic inches along. The large arched doorway leads to a slightly more contemporary lobby decorated in mauve and gray hues. Straight against the back wall is the slow, quirky elevator, which dates back to the 1920s; it is more of a novelty than it is useful, and most guests choose to lug their own belongings up the stairs instead.

Next to the front desk are awards and certifications, including one from the former Howard Johnson days. No longer owned by the chain, new owners are working on making this affordable hotel more modern while preserving character. The front desk is usually only operated by one staff member, so depending on the time of day, there might be a wait for service. Early check-ins are not common but guests are welcome to use the main floor until the room is ready. Beyond the lobby, practically hidden from view, is a large, contemporary atrium lounge. There are shelves for self-storage here, and travelers can be found here before they check-in, or between check-out and their flight home. Since luggage is not guarded, guests might feel the need to stay and watch their belongings instead of leaving the premise to explore.

Guests — mostly families and some business travelers — are usually out and about rather than hanging out on-site. Since rooms are mostly windowless, it is safe to say that guests tend to use their rooms (and the hotel) mostly for sleeping and showering.

Scene

Location

A prime spot in Old San Juan complete with cobblestoned streets and slow-moving traffic

The hotel’s name comes from Plaza de Armas, the public, pedestrian-friendly square and fountain just across the street from the entrance. This authentic cobblestoned view is visible from the front-facing suites and balconies, but all other rooms are without windows.

Old San Juan is the 500-year-old historic district within Puerto Rico’s sprawling capital. It is a medieval walled city that is as old as the Spanish conquest, and history buffs will love the numerous sights within walking distance, including Plaza of the Nuns (the city’s second oldest park), San Juan Cathedral, famous fortresses, government buildings, and several restaurants and bars. A walking/running path winds around San Juan bay for photo ops of the walled exterior. Look for the famous Red Gate, where Spanish dignitaries entered the city from their boats in the harbor.

To reach other parts of town, there is a free trolley that stops in front of the hotel, as well as a taxi stand. It only takes 15 minutes to get to the airport, but traffic in San Juan can get bad during rush hour. For those renting a car, parking is challenging on the compact streets. The hotel will recommend the district’s cheapest option but it is off-site. If arriving from a cruise, the port is within walking distance from the hotel.

Location

Rooms

Mostly windowless rooms, and a few suites with romantic views

This rare budget-friendly option in Old San Juan has 52 rooms on four floors that loop around an inner courtyard atrium and skylight. The hotel has interesting touches of history, and yet additions over time from previous owners (like Howard Johnson) have stifled some of the character. Standard rooms are simple — best suited for families and non-romantics — with tiled floors, air-conditioning units, flat-screen TVs, and older wood furnishings like work desks, bed stands, and cupboard style closets with in-room safes. Beds have white linens and beige blankets. Bathrooms have walk-in showers, eco-friendly toiletries, and decent counter space. Some larger units have mini-fridges, microwaves, and brown sofa beds. Room types include a range of bed types like single twin, double twin, queen, king and triple.

There are a few suites facing front, which are unarguably the best of the lot, with tall French doors opening up to balconies overlooking the Plaza de Armas. Though charming, some doors (due to their age) are difficult to open and having them open allows bugs to come in. Improvements are slowly being made to the rooms, however, and management takes suggestions to heart. For instance, in coming months, Wi-Fi will be free in rooms.

Rooms

Features

A spacious atrium lounge and friendly staff (though there might be a wait for service)

The front desk staff is limited (usually just one person) but friendly, and can help with suggestions for the area, like where to park for the cheapest overnight rates. As for dining options, the restaurant around the corner is the self-proclaimed origin of the Pina Colada, called Barrachina — a tourist hot spot especially with daytime cruise ship crowds. It is worth a stop, though, and the Old San Juan institution serves decent Puerto Rican fare in a pretty courtyard.

The large atrium area behind the lobby has several contemporary dining and working areas, as well as lounging sofas for those arriving extra early to check-in. Free Wi-Fi is only offered on the first floor, and there are outlets for charging. This is a good place to get work done, though be mindful — public restrooms are not available on the first floor.

    Amazing staff who went out of their way to help you. The location was perfect-right next to the plaza with live music, living statues and food!

    The location.

    This hotel is terrible. Sealed window, AC is either high, loud and freezing or off and it is then stuffy in the airless room. Bed and bedding were uncomfortable. Things didn’t work without special help: TV, safe. No hot water in sink in bathroom. Don’t stay there, don’t recommend the place.

    Great

    I’d read some highly negative reviews a year old about poor cleanliness
    and non-working elevators. I found our room clean, bed was comfortable,
    a/c was fine, and I asked for a first floor room. Tv great, room about
    the size of a Motel six and had no windows–not a problem. It’s location
    was pure gold–downtown Old Town, a across from the Plaza de Armas, a
    block from local restaurants, the Cathedral, a food market, or Wendys/
    Subway, three block from Burger King (don’t recommend it as it was quite
    dirty when we visited on a Sunday). Staff was courteous and helpful at
    check-in, finding local sites and answering transportation questions.
    Everyone spoke English, the tv was Digital Direct TV—good selection.
    Would go back again.

    The bathroom fan was noisy due to bad fan blade assembly, needs
    replacing. I wasn’t aware my room had no window, but not a big deal for
    a short stay—price and location made up for it.

    Location was excellent, the staff were so friendly we stayed here the night before our cruise and the staff helped us a lot and gave great advice.

    There was no window in our room however we were only staying one night so it was not really an issue.

    Nice

    Serves its purpose if u jus need a place to sleep and shower! Room was a little small but clean and modern,it had no window but I really didn’t mind, nice lobby. The hotel was close to the Sheraton casino and a slew of restaurants in walking distance! Also the pier that takes you to the Casa de Bacardi was in walking distance however it is not close to the beach or any clubs (but a cab ride is only $15 to Isla Verda)only little pubs are around so it was a little out of the way! I think Isla verda is a better hot spot location but Hotel de la armas is located in a very historic and beautiful area, with cobble stone side walks it reminds me of Italy, very awesome scenery! There is a street couple blocks over that has a line of restaurants, pubs and people offering to take your picture with you covered in parrots for $10!! I loved the area!! The hotel staff was great particularly Lyan, she was very sweet and answered all our questions professionally and patiently, not to mention that everywhere she suggested was on point! The guy at the front desk I believe his name was Luis was not as friendly, he started off sweet but lost his charm but the end of the first night and he suddenly seemed cold and a little rude! But Lyan made up for what he lacked in the hospitality department!! There was another female but I didn’t catch her name, she was a doll too! All in all I would give this hotel a 7 out of 10!

    The front desk guy and that its not exactly in the heart of the nightlife!

    Overriding negative was the fact that so many of rooms had no window. The desk clerk who checked us in I could only describe as surly. Very noisy courtyard sounded like beer kegs were being dragged across concrete. Restaurant service very slow. High price point for poor quality of facility. Elevator very slow. Many room keys didn’t work. Very poor experience. Couldn’t wait to get out of there. We will stay at hotel Convento next time for very little more expense. I have never written a review like this in all my traveling experience. UGH!!

    Very good

    The location was great. It was clean and the staff was friendly. Good value – way more reasonable than other hotels in the area.

    It is a bit dated and rooms are very basic, but you don’t travel to stay in the hotel all day. We were lucky and found a great parking spot – I am not sure what you would do about parking because in old San Juan parking is a nightmare.

Symbol of friendship 2019 • For two

This wonderful symbol evokes its own special associations for everyone. And for me it is a symbol of friendship between peoples. In the city of Moscow, there is such a Georgian monument in the vicinity of the Belorusskaya Koltsevaya metro station, right behind the Gruzinsky Val. Also a square, and a similar shaggy stele, proudly rushing up into the blue distances. Something like this.

The column is somewhat reminiscent of rostral columns in St. Petersburg. And at the same time a chimney. You won’t stay here for long in the heat – it bakes too much. But to sit on the benches, take pictures and take a break – that’s it.

Walking down the lovely Calle Cristo, you will come to Piazza San José, next to the Church of San José. In the center stands a bronze monument to the Spanish conquistador Juan Ponce de Leon. There are many restaurants and bars around. After a tiring walk around the city, you can relax here.

Plain Square

Nov. 2021 • Solo travel

This square is on the north side of Iglesia de San Juan and is very simple. Its main feature is the statue of Juan Ponce de Leon. It seems to be a popular place to pass or a place to get some rest.

Wonderful part of old San Juan

March 2020

Really nice area to enjoy and get some shade if needed. The Ponce de Leon statue is located here, while the Church of San José and the Plaza de Americas are a very short distance away.

Ponce de Leon

Plaza de San José has a large statue of Ponce de Leon, who was the new Spanish conquistador world and was responsible for finding the fountain of youth! I sipped it on Augustine street.

Cool off in the water for a minute

June 2017 • Family vacation

After Morro we walked to Plaza San Jose to return to the city. There is a nice area of ​​water on which has water spraying from the entrance. It was a good place to start shoes and relax our feet and legs for a few minutes. There are also some nice statues and a tall eviction monument.

      Very good

      Location in the center of the old city center – great, walking distance to many attractions. Just a few meters from the hotel there is a supermarket and several cafes and fast food restaurants, as well as a cafe serving main dishes. The staff were very nice and helpful, the room was ok, maybe a little faded, the bed was comfortable. I had a room with a balcony facing the street and I liked the view however the street was quite noisy. This is not a problem of the hotel itself, but those who need absolutely quiet rooms should take them without a balcony overlooking the street. But I liked it.

      The only negative point was the bad or rather non-existent wifi connection. I could only get wifi in the lobby, not in my room on the second floor. The staff were aware of this so it was not an acute issue or a short term outage, it was a long term issue however the hotel did nothing about it. But in case the description of the hotel says “wifi connection” I expected it to be in the room and the advice to go to the lobby was ridiculous – I paid for the room and want to stay in it and watch the news etc. in your bed, not in the lobby. I don’t think it’s such a big deal to buy another router.
