Atlantic Beach Hotel - San Juan, Puerto Rico

Atlantic Beach Hotel, San Juan hotel review Visited: May 2010

Posted by shizumina

Never leave anything important in your room. The $100 in my bag pocket and $200 in my wallet was totally gone! I went to complain at the receptionist, but they totally insisted that it was impossible for someone to get in.

I suggest you watch out if you ever decide to stay at this place!

This place was like refrigerator! I can't believe people can actually stay here!
It's central AC, so the receptionist can't really do anything. If you are afraid of being cold, I don't recommend you stay here.

The location is great, with a great beach. They were in the middle of renovations on some of the floors, but what was done was done nicely.

Our room was small, but clean and up to date. The lobby really needs to be spruced up more, and attention to detail is what will help pull up the ratings of this hotel.

Ten minutes and $15 from the airport, this hotel is ideally located from anything one could possibly want in a Caribbean getaway. There is no need to rent a car as everything is nearby.

This affordable, unpretentious little place is undergoing some renovations, so if a little dust in the hallway is a problem to you, spend three times more next door at the huge Marriott.

It is right on a beautiful beach with lounge chairs and umbrellas. You can mix with other guests or locals in the hotel club, or at the daily beach party, or keep to yourself.

Vendig is off Ashford Street, and has every type of store, restaurant, and American amenity you can think of (Walgreens, Starbucks, Cartier, Gucci, Ferragamo, and Louis Vuitton). Deco architecture and local art are everywhere, and Old San Juan is a few miles away. It's a safe walk if you want some exercise, and you will pass other beaches as well as find many health conscious Puerto Ricans jogging at all times of day and evening.

If you're a family or want a walled, locked-in-fortresses with no connection to the local atmosphere, culture, or vernacular, then this is not the place for you.

If you're a single or "young" open minded couple who like easy-going places with real flavor, interaction with the locals, and proximity to just about everything, I would suggest the Atlantic Beach Hotel.
