Hotels near Port of San Juan, Puerto Rico?

Question

I´m going to take a cruise that departs from San Juan, Puerto Rico on may. But i want to visit the city, and stay 2 nights before the cruise starts. Is recomendable to stay near the Port, or is better to stay close to the Airport and pay for a cab when is time to go to the cruise?

anyway, can anyone recomend me hotels in San Juan, better is they are good located or near the port? Thanks.

Answer 1

Sheraton Old San Juan Hotel & Casino

Right across from the pier and in walking distance to Old San Juan.

Answer 2

2 nights is a fair amount of time to stay somewhere nice, and the Port isn't the best place. Choose between the Old Town, Beachfront and the Oceanfront, by researching some pictures and the National Tourism site for Puerto Rico.

Taxis are cheap and reliable, especially when ordered by the hotel.

I've listed some links below to help you make some good choices. Good luck on your trip - it's a nice place.
