Gayot "Just three miles from the international airport, InterContinental San Juan Resort & Casino's location makes it easy to switch from on-the-clock to on-the-town."
Lonely Planet "The InterContinental is... opulent with all of the usual gadgets and marketing ploys you’d expect in a well-appointed four-star place." Full review

Fodor's "Although it's somewhat dowdy on the outside, the Royal Sonesta's remodeled guest rooms are spacious and contemporary, done in soothing shades of white, cream, and brown." Full review
Frommer's "This hotel's best features are its wonderful pool and the surrounding pool area (with waterfalls and swim-up bars), its pristine beach and oceanside dining, which rambles across a beachfront boardwalk" Full review

Make sure to experience the 1920s elevator at least once, though stairs are quicker.
Frommer's "We recommend this somewhat dowdy property because it offers a clean, comfortable good night's sleep in the heart of the historic zone at an economic rate, not an easy find these days" Full review
