Hosteria del Mar

The room and the big bathroom are great and the location is exceptional

The restaurant is not well stocked or staffed at times.

Buena ubicacion

No tiene wifi en las habitaciones, estuvimos 4 días y 2 de ellos no hicieron la habitación, el restaurante es caro y no sirven buenas porciones.

The location right on the beach and the views from the balcony. The bartender was super nice. Beds were comfortable. The price was way too high for this place.

Big quantities of rust, wet floors due to rainstorms and no good drainage. There was mold on the ceiling of our room , check in was long. Not efficient. Came to check out yesterday at 10:00 am, desk empty, lights off. I think for more than $300 a night, there are other cleaner guest houses and hotels. The place really needs renovation

The vibe in this place is lovely! I loved the beach bar and how the hotel is literally on the beach. The people are very kind.

My room was very basic. But it was fine.

Para entrar tienes que entrar por unas puertas, que estaban cerradas, porque es una urbanización privada y no te avisan de ello. Solo había wifi en el restaurante, y no llegaba nada a la habitación, La habitación muy vieja, tenía una puerta que conectaba con otra habitación y se escuchaba todo. La ducha no salió agua caliente

It was on the beach

Very basic facilities, restaurant was closed, they didn’t even have coffee in the lobby for customers, the front desk young man was friendly, but the older woman was not. This place is not worth the remoteness trouble to get to

Excellent location, great staff, and nice room.

Room windows looked directly out onto a very public restaurant/bar area but does not have good privacy blinds and the windows do not block much noise.

The hotel is on the beach in a nice neighborhood

No curtains or blinds on windows, just a see thru straw cover

The hotel was nice. The location was beautiful. The employees were nice. Our room was comfortable

Beach front location was amazing

Stairs no elevator

La mánager fue muy atenta, la habitación y el baño eran más grandes de lo esperado y tenía ventanas a diferencia de lo que se ve en las fotos cosa que me alegró.

Cuando fui a hacker el check-in la recepcionista intentó estafarme pidiendome el IBAN y el código de seguridad de la tarjeta de crédito. Por suerte no nací ayer y no lo permití y entonces fue que sacó el datáfono.

La ubicación

Esta muy viejo, mucho ruido, la atención no fue muy buena no hay desayuno hasta las 10:30h y eso si llegan los meseros.

This hotel was perfect! We flew to Puerto Rico for the Bad Bunny concert. The hotel was cute, it had a Moroccan vibe to it! Comfy bed, good water pressure in the shower. We liked the small kitchenette… perfect!!! Marlene was sweet and helpful. Great location with lots of eating options. Ocean park beach within walking distance.

The people and beach

This may be true for the entire Island, but the staff were amazing- Sweet, accomodating, and ready with recommendations. The hotel doesn't have much in terms of amenities but if you are ok with a "beach-bum" vibe; this place is amazing. It is literally on the beach!

This is not for resort-driven folks. It’s is by the ocean and you can practically reach down and dip your toes in at high tide. With that comes the sea spray wear. That said there seems to be wear… but that is what happens under these conditions. Once you get your bearings about that, the beds are comfortable, the rooms are a good size, the staff is A++ and the restaurant food and service is great. If you like an Old Dan Juan by the sea feel, this has it with a smile.

AVOID THIS PLACE!- only giving a one star to be able to write a review. This place would get 0 stars Our experience here was incredibly disappointing. The room had mold on the ceiling, rusty metal on the bed frame, and the sheets and towels were dirty. Be aware that there’s no elevator, so you’ll have to carry all your luggage up the stairs. We only stayed for about 30 minutes to check out the facility, and it looked nothing like the beautiful images on their booking site. We immediately requested a refund, but the front desk staff denied our request and he refused to answer calls from Expedia when we were standing right there while the phone was running, despite knowing they were trying to reach him. To make matters worse, we saw the cook handling food with her bare hands. I found this experience very unprofessional and felt it could have been handled much differently. This experience completely ruined our family trip as we had to scramble to find another place to stay.

Good service

Great low key, laid back spot right by the beach. Location is in a secure gated community, all who enter required to buzz security at the gate for entry. Close to nearby tourist spots and perfect place to have brunch/lunch with a ocean front view. Would recommend and come back for a visit.

Hosteria del Mar has something unique about it: its location. It's located right on the ocean with a very relaxing view. It's not a luxurious hotel, but it depends on your purpose of travel. The service from the staff was excellent, especially that of Mr. Anibal, who welcomed us with his charismatic charm. Overall, if you're looking for a luxurious hotel, this isn't the Hosteria del Mar. However, if you're looking for a relaxing, family-friendly atmosphere with great food and a wonderful breeze, and a place to spend the night, I highly recommend it.

Room was filthy. Bodily fluids on the sheets. Furniture was stained and filthy. Pubic hair in the toilet. No screens in the rooms so was very bright and loud at night time. Stayed one night and left to another resort because it was so bad. Will never ever recommended it to anyone. Disgusting

Gated community very hard time getting in or out Absolutely no amenities no coffee no fridge no elevator only thing i think this hotel has got going for it is the view

The view is everything.

Beach is directly outside your door! 10 minute uber to everything. Very clean.

Old hotel, but clean. No free water, had to pay for water. The older gentleman and woman at the front desk were very friendly. Jon at the front desk was very rude. Restaurant and bar opened a little bit after scheduled operating hours but the restaurant and bar staff were very friendly and provided excellent service. The bartender John was very nice and friendly.

I love that you can get up and have amazing food right there while looking at the ocean. Be on a breath taking beach all day and a great dinner without having to get in a car. We had just spent 3 nights at a breathtaking resort on the island for a conference, but it was a welcome change. It's kinda like walking into a yoga studio. You just start feeling at peace.

This was a lovely oceanfront property. Steps away from the ocean with a good sized beach and property owned lounge chairs. Great spot to watch kite surfers! The water was blue and warm, but the surf was rough when we were there (beg. of April). Our king sized bed was soft and the bedding was very soft as well. Our room was cleaned daily. We had a small balcony that was a perfect size. We had a delicious meal at the restaurant on site. We found seaglass walking in either direction on the shore in rocky areas. Wifi was available in the lobby and restaurant, and usually reached to the beach nearby. Easy walk to local restaurants and stores. This is in a gated community, you can walk in and out of the gate from 6a-6p or otherwise need to walk a few blocks to the main entrance after hours. Uber was around $10 to and from the airport.

Excellent location in a posh neighborhood. Has direct beach access. Plenty of bars and restaurants nearby. Bus to Old San Juan and to airport pass nearby.

Very old furniture and little equipment in the rooms: this hotel deserves a total renovation. Front desk and bar staff quite unconcerned. All in all, it's too pricey for what you get.

Hgh

C’est vieux, non rénové mais propre, pour mon appartement 3. Cependant c’est chill! Super séjour.

I liked my ocean front balcony view of the beach and the staff was wonderful, I did not like that they had no bottle water, the room offered a coffee maker but no coffee filters, cups or coffee to brew and that there is NO parking on premises, you have to be lucky to find a nearby parking spot on the side of the road. The Dining area is serene with a beautiful view of the beach, the food was ok.

4.5, and 5.0 great staff

The place has a beach-life vibe, laid back. Rooms couldn’t be closer to the beach. Food was fresh made and good. Walking distance to shops and a great bakery, so yo don’t need a car.Ten minutes from the airport…

What an amazing place! Already looking for an opportunity to go back

Stayed there before and brought back good memories.staff were all very kind and helpful

Beautiful View

We loved the restaurant! Excellent service.

We didn’t loved the surroundings.

Right on the beach and walkable to many eating options. Staff is friendly and welcoming. The premises needs a bit of updating, but the price is very right

Everything was great but I wish that we had WiFi in our room instead of just the lobby. But the people was very nice the place was clean and had the most beautiful views.

Location was perfect , safe location . Only dislike is I checked out 2 days ago they still have not released my $100 deposit hold . Hotel could use some updating . However for the price and location il take it .

Right on the beach at a very affordable price. Large rooms and enormous bathrooms. A cafe on the premises.

The staff was very helpful and friendly

It is a small, local, hotel right on the beach. It's perfect for someone who doesn't want the resort feel but still wants to be on the beach. I also loved the neighborhood. There are so many great restaurants that are a short 15 minute walk.

I'd explore other restaurants nearby, the one on the property isn't the best.

It’s all about location. Right on the beach Great beach bar Nothing fancy, if you don’t like hearing the ocean this place is not for you. We loved hearing the waves crash.

Location

Lovely staff Great location Fun little bar area with good food facing the beach

The desk was very welcoming.

Great place. Literally right on the beach. Simple with much character. Close to good food and fun stuff

I love the location of the hotel.

There were a lot of places that were stained, rusty and that needed updating.

The hotel lacked electricity, and there was no one at the front desk. When we finally reached someone, they informed us there was nothing they could do. The entire place was very dark and scary, making us feel unsafe. Now, I have to deal with getting a refund. Horrible experience!

Good

Beach front is beautiful and the property is in a nice residential neighborhood

The rooms are a little bare but for the price it’s a great value

Great location nice comfortable rooms and great staff

Like this place

It’s amazing

The rooms are not insulated against noise, and any person walking through the halls makes a lot of notice. One guest heard loud music until 3 am, and every time he opened the door, we woke up with hearts wanting to leave our bodies with the strenuous noise of heavy metal rock.

Spectacular location right on the beach! Beautiful view from our room. Pleasant restaurant with nice sea breezes as you ate looking over the ocean.

We enjoyed our stay at Hosteria Del Mar with it's eclectic charm and vintage feel, and the clerk and bartender were very nice and provided good service. The room was clean and comfortable. The beach was really nice and hotel guests were offered beach chairs.

Right on the Beach! Beautiful view. The staff at the bar was amazing! So nice and helpful!

Walls were very thin. We were up at dawn every morning because we could hear hotel staff through the walls On the first floor. The front desk staff was very rude to us. We were told for $50 we could have a late check out of 5:30. We paid that and the next day were told it was 1:00. No refund was issued. Also we had trouble getting towels. And our toilet broke durning our stay and ran water out in our room.

This property was close at 11:20 pm when we arrived after a wedding party . Nobody answer the phone at the lobby and had to go to a friends house because we didn’t have a place to stay. This is the worse experience in my live with Expedia and a reservation. I will not recommend this place never.

The lady that helped us. There was very helpful and very kind. But the guy that got us to that lady, he was very creepy. He said that he wanted to kill me and take my other half all kinds of things the place was not very safe but it was very good to stay at because of the beach right on the ocean. Other than that, the place was not very clean? The place is very secure, but that guy needs to go. He is a creep apartment eight

It is a fantastic location right next to the beach. The rooms are comfortable and sevice was friendly. They say the water heater is solar, but the water never got hot during our showers.

This local hotel is amazing! The pictures they post do not do it justice. This is not a typical hotel--it is small, and the rooms are scattered among beautiful, plant-filled courtyards. The place is literally 30 feet from the bright blue ocean. You are practically at the water in the open-air restaurant and bar. The fish tacos (local mahi mahi) were the best thing I ate all week in the city. The beach is great, but you can also walk a short distance to the local public beach for more views. I will absolutely be back!

It was right on the beach and conveniently located to additional restaurants other than the restaurant in the Hotel. They provided lounge chairs and beach towels. I did enjoy lounging in the restaurant to enjoy the beach and breeze without getting to toasty.

I didn't like that they didn't have mini refrigerators and that the service at the hotel was so slow. I wish they provided umbrellas for the chairs.

Easy to get to the beach.

Location is very nice, close to everything. Is really beachfront, the view to the beach from the restaurant and bar is lovely. The property is really old, and the bedroom is no a luxury or modern stay, but is clean and good for the price.

Very basic amenities. Fair warning there is no hot water for showers. Ice cold. Everything else is very basic but for the price fair.

The location is in a beautiful neighborhood on the beach. The room was clean and neat.

Nice place right on the beach! Had a great time!

The facilities are very poor and lonely, only one employee very rude to give directions, rooms very small and the furniture are no in the good condition for a comfortable stay or get relax on vacation so sad

The hotel is great! , The staff is super nice, kind and friendly, the room is comfortable and clean. The only thing I dont give the 5 stars is because the WiFi service is very bad and have limited service from my carrier in my room.

Good people just old technology.

I wanted to stay here to see the sunset while dining. The weather turned really bad and the whole area was flooded and no electricity. Thankfully they have generator and even though the kitchen was closed they accommodated us with salad and shrimps. We were sooo great full!!! The employees there are great!

Siempre es un placer hospedarme en este lugar tan maravilloso con un excelente servicio de parte de todos sus empleados.

The location is incredible, literally on the beach. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly.

The only thing I didn't like was the GPS route to get there. The streets are narrow and the parking is tight.

The lady at check in was great and so was the lady at the bar . The older gentlemen at front desk was not friendly at all i said ho to him twice just looked at me and didn’t say anything I asked him for soap and he said housekeeping would take it to the room I waited about an hour and I came back to ask him he had it the whole time. He could have taken it to the room himself literally like 10 ft away from the room . The night before I left I asked one of the young gentlemen there if they had laundry service and he said yes so the next morning I asked the older gentleman if I can get laundry service and he said they didn’t have it. So overall the made it uncomfortable walking by front desk and jist was not friendly hospitable or professional. I hope they dotn keep my deposit which the lady said they would give back and when I asked him he said it was just a hold so I how they don’t charge it.

Ame el sitio en si

Falsely presented. The pictures look like it’s on a beach but the beach is non existent. No sand visible like in pictures. Restaurant was nothing like what the pictures presented. Pictures have not been updated since Maria

Clogged shower drain flooded 1/3 of room. Staff was indifferent about situation. When I asked for a later check out, as a result of flooded room and waiting on housekeeping for 45min, I was told it was still early and I had plenty of time before regular check out time to enjoy my stay. I checked out at regular time and issue was still unresolved.

Everything was fine!

Friendly and comfortable environment scenery was exceptional accommodating and helpful. Food was very nicely prepared at the hotel surrounding areas, safe and accessible to other parts of the town.

Necesita remodelación en todas sus areas. Nuestras expectativas eran mucho más altas por el precio que pagamos. Estuvimos solo una noche para tomar un vuelo. La habitación necesita upgrade. Hay que subir escaleras para llegar a la mayoría de las habitaciones; esto no fue un problema para nosotros pero lo comento para quien le sea util. Al hacer el check in la persona demoró muchísimo, atendió el teléfono y en vez de pedir a la persona del teléfono que esperara un momento en linea, nosotros tuvimos que esperar a que se tomara el tiempo de atender la llamada. Salimos tarde en la noche y la llave del lobby no nos funcionó, tuvimos q llamar para que nos abrieran la puerta. Entendemos que la estructura es antigua pero estaría bien si la modernizara y actualizara. Los alrededores son seguros y accesibles, frente a la playa. No estuvo horrible pero no creo q regresemos. Muy costoso para las facilidades.
