Stayed in the hotel for 4 nights and was disappointed at the room condition. Soiled furniture. The room especially the bathroom needs to be totally revamped. The staff was not friendly. They are probably u...sed to hearing these complaints since these issues aren’t one off issues. The bathroom had multiple problems. Shower stall had wood chips falling apart. The floor got flooded every time one took a shower. On the third day the water flooded about 4-5 inches and drained after 30 minutes making the bathroom unusable. The wall next to the bathroom was clearly damaged and looked like a mold issue in the bathroom. Didn’t want to look at it too closely since I wanted to leave at this point. Security latch in the room was broken from day 1 . Reported to front desk twice and they did not fix the lock.
The staff and location make this a MUST place to stay!

Where to begin. From the moment I arrived it felt like I was a VIP, and I wasn't! The level of service I received throughout the hotel would have made a casual observer think I had been there many times be...fore. Kenneth at the front desk did an amazing job making me feel welcome and gave me a room with a fantastic view. Angel, the Bellman, was kind and helpful with all the luggage I brought and I was very thankful for him! Orlando, at the breakfast restaurant, remembered my name when he saw me outside of the restaurant and I will never forget his smile and warmth. The Concierge, Natalia, was informative and helped me with a question about dinner providing timely updates and offering great alternatives. Francisca, at the Front Desk, checked me out and was absolutely delightful. And then there is Gloria, the Room Attendant, on the 8th floor. Gloria took such good care of me and my room - she made me feel like I was part of her family. I came to look forward to seeing her each morning on my way out to breakfast as she started my day with an unforgettable smile! If you are looking for a relaxing getaway at a resort with a great location for peace and quiet, yet close enough to Old San Juan or tourist destination, Fairmont El San Juan Hotel is the place to stay. I loved this hotel, cherished my stay, and look forward to crossing paths with all of these wonderful people in my future stays!
