The customer service is superb! The frontline staff is knowledgeable and welcoming! When you stay at The Colonial, you feel at home. Cristian made our stay enjoyable, he explained every aspect of the hotel and provided many local recommendation's. The rooms are comfortable, they do not provide parking, but you get a daily discount in parking lot near by. All the drinks are included in your stay. We also received an room upgrade. Definitely staying at The Colonial next time.

The El Colonial was perfect from beginning to end! They have a 24 hour bar. All the gentlemen that work there were right there to serve drinks and be social. It's an old building, but well kept and clean! The best part is the tile is original. If you want modern then this is not the place for you. The vibe is colonial and the rooms are basic, but amazing with high ceilings and comfortable beds. Luis upgraded us to a room with doors so we could enjoy. We stayed 7 days and every day the water was cool. Not a deal breaker for us because it's so hot outside. The air conditioner was amazing, which is hard to find at some places in Puerto Rico. We loved it so much that my daughter and fiancée will spend there honeymoon at the El Colonial. A giant shout out to all the wonderful people that work there. Luis was amazing and so full of energy. I never seen him without a smile. Also, Gerardo, Marcos, Christian, Angel, Eduardo, and Jesus were amazing!!! Thank you for making our 31st anniversary an experience that we will never forget! (I hope I mentioned all their names.)

Everyone was so welcoming! I was only here for a night but would have loved to have stayed longer. Great place to stay while you’re visiting Puerto Rico as it’s in a great location to see the city, close to the airport, and a nice starting point to see the rest of the island.

This was a great find. The staff was great and very responsive with any inquiries. Very safe with a code needed to enter the property. They do not have an elevator though so if stairs are an issue you may want to see if they have a ground level room. They have a great roof top deck area with great views. I highly recommend this adult only hotel.
