Located in the heart of Old San Juan, El Convento, a member of Historic Hotels of America, has set new standards of luxury, comfort and service while preserving the unique character and mystique of the hotel.
A former Carmelite convent built three and a half centuries ago, El Convento has gone through many incarnations before a complete refurbishment carefully restored this historic hotel with special attention paid to the preservation of the original structure. No expense or imagination has been spared in giving El Convento a fine blend of originality and classic quality.
