- Area description
- Miramar is, for the most part, a quiet, unassuming neighborhood across the water from Condado. It's a mix of residential community, business sector, and some admittedly shady areas. But Miramar's fortune changed with the arrival of the Puerto Rico Convention Center. An architectural wonder, the center is still putting it's stamp on the neighborhood, but it has already transformed the landscape.

PERFECT SERVICE FROM STAFF!
THE HOTEL STAFF, FROM RECEPTION TO MAID SERVICE WAS THE BEST. VERY CONGENIAL, COURTEOUS AND ACCOMODATING. SECOND NIGHT WE WERE THERE THE BATH TUB DRAIN CLOGGED. WALTER, THE CONCIERGE IMMEDIATELY UP-GRADE US TO A BIGGER ROOM AND GAVE US COMPLEMENTARY BREAKFAST VOUCHERS AT THE HOTEL BISTRO. AFTETR A 5 NIGHT STAY, IT FELT LIKE FAMILY. THE ROOF TOP TERRACE GIVES YOU A VIEW OF OLD SAN JUAN, THE CIVIC AREA, AND THE OCEAN. BEAUTIFUL, AND AFFORDS YOU GREAT PHOTOS. HOTEL IS LOCATED CONIENANTLY CLOSE TO THE EXPRESSWAY, MAKING DRIVING TO DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE ISLAND VERY CONVIENENT, AND TEN MINUTES FROM THE AIRPORT. MY KUDOS TO THE EXCELLENT STAFF.

Great location, great staff, great rooms
Hotel Miramar staff was friendly, helpful and so accommodating! When I got there, my room wasn't ready (I was early), so they held my bags and suggested a local place I could go to get some lunch. When I got back and the room wasn't ready still, they opened the bar for me and sat and chatted giving me some tips for getting around and things to do. The complimentary continental breakfast was cereal, oatmeal, fruit, toast and pastries, as well as coffee, juice, milk, tea... plenty enough to get you started for the day! They also had a menu for other items you could order. Mirarmar is a short walk from Condado Lagoon and just a little further from Condado beach. It was an easy walk of about 10-15 minutes to Condado. It's about a 35 minute walk into Old San Juan, or a very quick bus trip for 75 cents (bus stop is right in front of the hotel). If you do the walk... you can walk along the coast and it is gorgeous! The hotel rooms have fridges and microwaves, the hotel is right near a Walgreens and grocery, so I was able to buy a few things for the room when I wanted them. There are no coffee makers in the room, which is the only downer, but there is a coffee place just next door, or in the restaurant. Definitely recommend this hotel. They are very friendly--calling you a taxi when you want one, or helping with directions and recommendations for everything from where to eat from best tour places.

If you want to bring rum back (and I did--Don Q is my new favorite), don't buy it at Bacardi or DonQ... you can buy it after security in the airport at the Duty Free shop for a little less and you don't have to worry about packing it in your checked luggage and wondering if it will survive the trip. Mine did, but I also got a couple bottles at Duty Free.

Excellent for the price!
The staff was wonderful and courteous. definitely not a "cheap motel" it had all the characteristics of a small, very personal, quiet hotel… and the price was definitely a saver's dream. Every staff member we encountered knew English, and were eager to help plan your day! They had a complementary breakfast which included puerto rican coffee. Rooms include microwave, fridge, iron and board and hair blower. The hotel is not in the center of town, obviously, but it is about 15 minutes walking distance from a cute little beach.

The staff made this stay great.
We arrived at 11pm. Our room was ready and we had a quick checkin. The initial impression was a musty smelling entry and a concern that this smell was going to be a part of our stay. When we stepped into our room, the room was chilled and the smell was gone. The rest of the stay was uphill. From [...] at the front desk, [...] in the main rooms and [...] in the kitchen, everyone was helpful and genuine in making our stay enjoyable. [...] is a hands-on owner and reponsive to our requests. Food in the bar was great, the Puerto Rican people were great and the driving, once you get use to it, was an adventure one has to experience.

wonderful people
The staff was extremely helpful, friendly and welcoming. This is a family run place, so we saw the same people everyday and enjoyed talking to them. It had everything we needed, but is not fancy. Yes, we would have loved to have been on the beach and away from the city noises, but the Hotel Miramar was right by the bus stop, they made arrangements for tours & transportation for us and we had no trouble getting to and from where we needed to go. The flavor and fun with the people there made our stay very pleasant and out of the ordinary for hotels these days. We would definitely go back.

Rocaliza Rain forest Adventure was outstanding and pushed us to our limits physically, but it was so worth it! We are 51 and 60 and were unsure we could handle it, but we did! Also we were so glad we did not try to drive there. It is insane how Puerto Ricans drive!

Never Use Orbitz Again
Hotel was very accomodating, even more so after Orbitz gave the hotel manager a call to try and intimidate them into taking the blame for what was very much the fault of Orbitz.
