As with most of Old San Juan, uneven surfaces make it less desirable for people with instability or other mobility issues. But for the more able, this is the perfect place to stay in OSJ. Cool decor, intriguing artwork, fountain in the courtyard, fabulous 2nd floor roof terrace. We commandeered the breakfast room one evening with a takeout dinner, a bottle of rum, pineapple juice, coconut milk, and very high spirits. The delightful staff kept us well supplied with ice. A terrific if slightly hazy memory. read less

We had a small interior room. It's an old hotel but clean and well-maintained. Great location for exploring Old San Juan. We were able to walk with our luggage down to the cruise port (about 3 blocks). Front desk staff was super friendly and helpful. They even offered to store our bags for a few hours after our cruise since we had a late flight. read less

Denny made sure that we were not thirsty with his refreshing guava mimosas and other drinks. Our day started with freshly brewed coffee and a selection of food items which were customized. Our daily visits to the bar and restaurant were very satisfactory ! Denny and his staff, Francisco, Alondra and Christian provided outstanding service and a relaxed atmosphere. When leaving on our cruise we were so happy to have chosen the Casablanca Hotel and would definitely come back to visit ! Thank you guys for a memorable stay ! More read less

The staff was extremely accommodating and welcoming to our large wedding group, especially Cynthia. The rooms are charming but not overly spacious (but nothing is very big in that area). The lobby is beautiful, and ended up being a perfect place to take some gorgeous wedding photos. The rooftop terrace is very convenient to relax and hang out after a long day of exploring. The location is excellent - everything in Old San Juan is within a 10 minute walk - restaurants, shops, and many historic sites. They don't have any parking options, but if you only stay in Old San Juan, you won't want a car anyway. The rooms don't have fridges, but they were happy to let us put something in their fridge overnight. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for extra charm in Old San Juan. read less

My whole family loved it. Not only because of it's absolute elegance but also because of the wonderful service. I'd Like to commend Jorge for going above and beyond in making sure that we were confortable and had a pleasant stay. We arrived at the hotel pretty early and decided to walk around Old San Juan for a couple of hours since check in time is later in the afternoon around 3 pm. Tired and exhausted from walking, we decided to head back to our hotel. It was about an hour early before check in time. Jorge could tell how exhausted we were so he immediately gave us a room available. It may seem like nothing but it meant a lot for us since we badly needed a nap. Also he recommended an awesome restaurant to eat and it didn't disappoint. Thanks Jorge! Keep up the great work! We will stay in CasaBlanca Hotel again in the future. Highly recommended. read less

We booked a family suite for a night after we disembarked from our cruise. The staff was very helpful and fluent in English. They let us stow our bags until our room was ready leaving us free to explore the city for a few hours.

The lobby was charming with three tv’s playing the movie Casa Blanca. There is a quaint little cafe where they do breakfast and dinner service (not included).

It is a very nice space with a door between our room and the kids’ room. We slept on a king while our two boys each had a twin bed to themselves. We had a balcony off the main bedroom that had a small table and two chairs overlooking the street below.

This was a great stay. With the spacious room, great service, and friendly staff we would definitely stay here again. read less

My boyfriend and I had the pleasure of staying three nights here on a recent visit to Old San Juan. We first stayed two nights at the beginning of our trip and decided to stay an extra night at the end of our trip because we loved it so much. There are 8 rooms, each with a mix of contemporary and antique decor, some with high ceilings, exposed wooden beams and old floor tiles. The front desk staff was helpful and the breakfast was excellent. Breakfast is served in the dinning room with a high ceiling and exposed wood beams on a 16+ person table. I loved the eclectic mix of zebra stripped chairs, contemporary paintings and the chandelier above. Breakfast included coffee, tea, juice, cereal, yogurt, fruit and three different types of delicious fresh baked bread. Old San Juan is easily navigated by foot but if you need to park a car there is a lot close by run by El Convento that offers a special rate for guests of Villa Herencia. Other perks to Villa Herencia included the roof deck with shade, a sweet smelling courtyard, an avocado tree, luxurious beds and hearty AC systems in each room.. read less

CasaBlanca Hotel is right in the center of shops, restaurants and historic sites. It is easy walking distance from the forts and a beautiful walk around the sea walls. The rooms were adorable and quaint. There wasn't a lot of storage (no closet, just a rack with three hangers, etc.) But, who comes to Old San Juan for storage? Our room had a cute balcony (shared with the neighboring room) overlooking the cobblestone street. The restaurant was only open for breakfast, but the food smelled good (we aren't breakfast people, so we didn't try it.) Truly, the very best thing about the hotel was the staff. Miguel and Jorge were SO friendly and helped us make plans and navigate the city. At one point we got lost looking for a gas station - so we were low on gas, stuck in traffic and my phone for some reason wouldn't connect to the internet in a foreign country.......so I called the front desk and shared my panic attack with Miguel. I couldn't even see the street names, but I described the buildings around me and he figured out where we were and talked us to a gas station and set us on the path back to the hotel. He will always be a hero to us. We loved our stay there and give it our highest recommendation. read less

Hector was pleasant, courteous and attentive to my food allergies. We ordered two omelettes, a fruit bowl and coffee. I am not a frequent coffee drinker - this was the best coffee I've had.

The eggs came with a version of home fries that are better than, but closely related to potato chips. The fruit mix was fresh and had papaya. Recommended for ambiance, good food and nice staff. read less

The staff is friendly and accommodating. The rooms are beautiful and each is unique. My superior suite had a blacony overlooking the main street and i loved sitting out here. The beds and pillows are COMFORTABLE. Had several great nights of sleep. My only suggestion for change is that there be a fridge included inside the rooms. Cold water (without running to the lobby for ice) and the ability to save left over food from the amazing local restaurants would have made things a bit easier for us. I would absolutely stay here again and hope to do so in the future. read less

We have stayed here twice and each time the staff gives great recommendations for local food and entertainment. They have recently renovated and the balcony rooms in the back are beautiful!

Right in the heart of old San Juan, it was a great location to branch out from when looking for food or things to do. Staff were helpful with directions and recommendations. We were upgraded to a suite so we had lots of room. Everything was just right. Unfortunately, due to high winds, the rooftop was closed. Due to renovations the elevators were not working, but staff were readily available to help with bags. We did not eat in the hotel, so I cannot comment on their food options.We were able to store our luggage in the morning after check-out so we didn't have to drag it around when we went looking for breakfast. It is close enough to the Carnival cruise terminal to walk with your luggage, but the cobblestone streets make it a bit of a challenge so if you have a lot of heavy luggage, consider spending a few bucks on a taxi.
Note: most cruise lines board at another location in the harbour, so check first before booking the hotel, or plan on a longer taxi ride (the other cruise pier is not in old San Juan). read less

My room was not very big, but it had everything I needed, and I wouldn’t have needed more space. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and would definitely recommend this hotel to others! read less

We arrived very early and the staff checked us in and put our luggage in a storage area designated just to hold early arrival luggage. This left us free to head into the city and to our favorite restaurants for a great lunch and famous drink. We did have a room with balcony but next time we will not add this feature since it only has a view of the alley behind the hotel. We felt it was by far the best hotel we have visited in San Juan.

Thankfully, with the help of my in-laws, we were able to get a reservation at this adorable boutique hotel. From the moment we entered and waited to check-in at the desk, my husband and I fell in love with this business. The art is funky and eclectic while instilling a "get to know your fellow travelers in the lobby" kind of vibe. The front desk staff we interacted with were both helpful and charming. Due to the impending storm during our stay, most of the local businesses were boarded up and closed our first day there. We were able to find a few restaurants that were open, all of which were slammed with a constant flow of customers but unfortunately were not able to find a supermarket open by afternoon. The man at the front desk was quick to run around (in the rain) to find out which bodegas were still open. We were not expecting this service but were extremely pleased and he was able to point out exactly where they were on the map available at the front desk. The tubs on the roof were lovely, albeit a bit cold after being rained on all day. All in all, we loved their hospitality and have already discussed returning to Old San Juan and staying here on future Caribbean trips. read less

Charming is a basic description. I am in love !!!!
Each room is different and yet the property keeps the same rustic Spanish feel. As the Front reception agent said, " It allows you to feel Old San Juan."

We stayed in the King upgrade with twin daybed in a stepdown room. The same room holds a straight back chair in one corner and an armoire. This is also equipped with a pack n play, umbrella, and iron with board.

The price, locations, and staff make it a "No brainer " read less

Their front desk attendants are the BEST! Miguel is always so kind and helpful with recommendations of local food spots.

Near the hotel you have so many bars and a quick walk takes you to the port where all the cruises dock. Right next to hem you can find a ferry which is only .50 cents per way/per person which takes you to the Bacardi factory (a must do in Puerto Rico)

Also I love the rooms. The beds are very comfortable, cozy and great for a good night sleep. The decoration is jaw dropping... again I can stay here for a little longer. The bathrooms are well equipped and if you need a hair dryer or steamer than you can request one with your personalized room tablet. So convenient! You ale your request and one do the kind front desk guys will come up and bring over to you.

I honestly could have not chosen a better hotel. I was so happy with our stay that I am sad to leave! read less

Miguel was very helpful in answering all my questions prior to arrival. The balconies are shared but no one really spent more than 5 mins out on them so it was nice to have an extra amenity. We felt safe. We had no problems with the elevator. 2 H south side had different decor and big room. 3B was still cozy but older decor. Different rooms different part of hotel. Older vs newer. But older had the balcony from what I understand facing Forteleza. A/C worked great everyday. They helped us with our luggage. Even gave us towels for the beach for the day. Would stay again as there were plenty of shops around and things to see in old san juan. Even if you are going to travel with a car like we did just park in the parking lot down a block and a half. The roof top was great to take in the sights of Puerto Rico. read less
