spirite Posted August 18, 2009 #4 Share Posted August 18, 2009 We stayed here after a repo into San Juan. We took the rainforest tour and the driver dropped us right at the hotel. It was fine - typical HIExpress, booked online from the UK. Breakfast was fine but busy - we ate outside around the small outdoor pool. 2 minute walk to a great beach. 1 minute walk to the grocery store. Easy cheap trip to the airport. Can't recall the cost of the taxi ride into Old San Juan for the evening but it can't have been that expensive, else I would remember! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mar y Sol Posted August 18, 2009 #5 Share Posted August 18, 2009 We stayed there a couple of years ago right before a cruise and it was fine! If you are used to 5 star hotels however this may not be the one for you. The staff was efficient, the rooms were clean, breakfast was fine and restaurants and beaches very nearby.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue L Posted August 18, 2009 #6 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Oh and if you are a dunkin donuts coffee addict like me, go out the front door, make a right and another right and there is one or so down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debde Posted August 18, 2009 #7 Share Posted August 18, 2009 We stayed there when we sailed on AOS and have re-booked for this January Serenade sailing. Typical HIExpress. Close to airport. Free Brkfst. Plenty of places to grab a bite to eat at night-or they have a grill-right by the pool and they have a shuttle that goes to the pier. We like it as it is only a place to sleep the night befor our cruise so we don't require all the bells and whistles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F858MM Posted August 19, 2009 Author #8 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Thanks, for all the info I booked it for Jan. We are sailing on the Serenade. There is no shuttle to the pier, so we will have to a taxi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moakes Posted August 19, 2009 #10 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Stayed there as well and echo all the previous comments. Great for one night but that's about it... Tons of restaurants / shops within a few minutes walk. Also stayed on the post at the Embassy Suites by the airport... nice pool, free cooked to order breakfast and evening cocktail hr...and you have the two room suites.

martinchem Posted August 19, 2009 #11 Share Posted August 19, 2009 We stayed there a couple years ago pre Destiny criuse, The staff were ok at best, the hotel was clean and our room was one of the best we've stayed in. There are restraunt chains like Burger King to Chili's within a 5 minute walk, there are also several local restauntsa very close to. The night life is busy and we always felt comfortable walking around. We would certainly stay there again. It's a little more than half way to the cruise port from the airport.

OceanDreams Posted August 20, 2009 #12 Share Posted August 20, 2009 I called the actual Holiday Inn Express in San Juan and they DON'T have a shuttle service going to the ship. OceanDreams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
