Wyndham El San Juan Hotel & Casino: Swanky Bar Area    Check Rates
  • Tip Rating:
  • Although I did not personally stay in this hotel, we stopped by the Wyndham El San Juan in Isla Verde to wait out a rainstorm before going into Old San Juan.

    The centerpiece of the hotel is the swanky bar area with its huge chandellier - it's there in front of you when you walk through any of the hotel's main entrances. The hotel also has a casino area.

    In off peak periods, you can typically get great deals from the hotel's website or call the hotel directly (not the main reservation number).

  • I'm ashameed to stay that this tip is quite old. Although I have returned many times to the hotel, I have not recently stayed here.

    Update: I will be staying at this hotel March 2008 and will write about it upon my return. Please note that this hotel was recently purchased by the """BlackstoneGroup" of NYC and has been under going some major renovations.

    All of the amenities found in a top hotel.

    Wyndham El San Juan Hotel & Casino: A jewel in San Juan's crown    Check Rates
  • Satisfaction:
  • The Wyndham El San Hotel & Casino is listed as one of the "Leading Hotels In the World" and for good reason. The expansive lobby with its HUGE chandelier is but one of the attractions. Indeed, the lobby is the place to see and be seen on a Saturday night as the locals strut their stuff and socialize with each other, the guests, and often with celebrities. I have seen many professional athletes, actors/actresses and others here. The night club goes all night. There are several top-shelf restaurants to suit any taste. The pools are beautiful, and the hotel sits right on Isla Verde Beach.

    The rooms are nice but maybe not as modern as some, but the hotel is a classic. There are several boutiques, a cigar bar, and of course the casino.

    Numerous other restaurants are within a very short walk.

    I lived next door to this hotel for 5 years and wish I was still there!

    Great pools and beach.
    Excellent restaurants!!!
    Nice boutiques.
    Classic charm.
    And of course the lobby!

    Wyndham El San Juan Hotel & Casino: Renovation is stark and cold    Check Rates
  • Satisfaction:
  • The lobby at the El San Juan is warm and inviting in the Carribean way. However, when you get to the renovated rooms they no longer match. They are all stark, bleak, cold and empty. They call it a minimalist design but it left me feeling codl and thinking the hotel ran out of money. The floors are white wood/plastic and cold to the feet. The shower door is a piece of glass that only covers half the entry way so that water runs out on the floor. The walls are empty without much artwork. The furniture is made of plywood that is painted white, but does not completly cover the plywood pattern. There is a clear plastic chair to sit at the desk/table and a couch covered in pleather that sticks to you. This used to be a comfortable warm room, but it seems the renovation went horribly awry. For my money I will stay elsewhere in the future.

    The El San Juan does have a beatiful lobby, pool area and beach access. They added covered beds around the pool to lay in and drink during the day. Although the renovated rooms are bleak, cold and uncomfortable they do still have some suites that are worth looking into if you can afford it. I got moved to one of these after complaining about the renovations. I hope that if enough people do the same, they will make the hotel more comfortable once again.

    I am going to make the bold statement of saying that the Wyndham El San Juan is the best hotel I have ever stayed at in any city in the world (with a close second being the Beach Hotel in Hermosa Beach, CA). It really has everything you would ever want so, for better or worse, you really never have to leave. In summary this hotel has:

    1. About 7 restuarants including a Palm Steakhouse, two restuarants on the roof with great views and food, a sushi restuarant, etc.

    2. An elegnat casino with blackjack, craps, poker, slots, etc. It is not open 24 hours, but late enough to lose all your money.

    3. A really nice, high scale club (Babylon) whose entrance is in the hotel lobby.

    4. Two huge pool areas, as well as a very large beach front just beyond the pools.

    5. Multiple shops for any kind of necessity.

    6. The service is top notch. The employees of the hotel went out of their way to find us a place to stay when all hotels were booked and we weren't even guests of the Wyndham at the time.

    The bottom line is that this hotel is "Elegant." During the high season the price gets very expensive but you can probably find some very good deals during the low season. If you are willing to spend a little more, there is no better place to stay in San Juan.
