Ritz-Carlton San Juan
The Ritz-Carlton experience is always similar around the world. I chose the hotel because their beds are always a pleasure to sleep in with all the pillows and linens. Of course, service is always a draw, as well as the fine dining that is offered. Overall, the Ritz-Carlton experience is always very enjoyable.

nice hotel
the hotel is in a good location, the beach was nice but you could pay less at another hotel and just go to the beach, drinks are so expensive at the hotel, your best bet is to buy a small cooler and by drinks form the grocery store, you pay a lot of money for these rooms and they dont offer free breakfast or a free drink which i thought that is the least they could do, i have stayed at cheaper hotels which have offered much more than the ritz carlton offered

Short drive from hotel
if you want to go and see the sites bring your GPS because most tours that are offered are ranging 150 dollars, when you can rent a car and go to all the places you want to go and you can take your time enjoying the sites

More than happy!
Loved the hotel, the staff completely. Staff was extremely pleasant and friendly beyond words! The only slight disappointment was that I did not get the king bed I requested (full knowing there was a chance on a busy holiday weekend). I got a dbl bedded room, however, I was well compensated by the perfect view of the pool and full front ocean.

Short walk from hotel
Being a Ritz hotel, it is in line with the elegance of the chain, therefore if you want more "party" but the quiet in the evening, just head down the road to the El San Juan. The hotel there is the equivalent of Las Vegas ala Puerto Rico! So go Salsa or go to the club and then you can leave the party there and go to a quiet hotel...

Service at it's best!
We laid at the pool and played at the casino. The food and service was good, but a little expensive. The beach was flawless.

IT WOULD'VE BEEN OUTSTANDING
Well it is a great misfortune that I had to suffer because of the miscommunication on the part of the hotel company and orbitz. I was a victim because orbitz failed to communicate to me that there was a hotel policy that required that a certain dollar amount had to be deposited per day during the duration in which I booked it for. Since ORBITZ did not know because the hotel did not communicate this valuable peace of information I had to suffer as a distraught victim of failure to communicate between these to companies. I showed up to the hotel expecting to get checked in and retire for the night after experiencing a 5 hour delay from my airline and what I got stuck with was an option to pay the deposit or find another hotel. So I am like I was never alerted of this alleged deposit during my booking and if I give the deposit then I will have no money to sustain myself while in PUERTO RICO. So I would not be able to eat or go on any of the excursions that was planned. So my choice was abruptly reduced to getting another hotel at 2200 hours. It took the orbitz representative close to three hours to find me another hotel with my standards as the RITZ-CARLTON as I so chose from the other hotels before picking the RITZ-CARLTON during my selection process for booking. The hotels that I chose were unaccommadating that were at my standards so I was further reduced to a hotel that was grossly substandard. So needless to say that my stay at the selected hotel was very very painstaking while I was in the beautiful ISLAND OF PUERTO RICO. I felt violated that I had to stay at such a hotel that I did because of miscommunication amongst these two companies. So this has left my trip a waste of time and an unhappy and unforgettable moment. I will no longer use ORBITZ in booking anything else or let my friends book anything through this company. No one should have to suffer in the manner in which I did because of failure to commnicate.

don't go to eat
Everything was lovely except there must be mold in the ice lines , I could not order a drink with ice in it because it tasted like mold. The food in every restaurant was horrible,almost inedible. I have never experienced bad food at a RC in any city.
