“Nice little hotel but check room first”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 24, 2013

I would give this 5 stars as a nicely located, reasonably priced and we'll equipped hotel with one exception: our first night, in Room 10, was pretty bad because of a hard and lumpy mattress. We complained the following morning, and were first offered a room with windows facing a major street which would obviously be noisy. We were then switched to another room on the 2nd floor which was very nice indeed. Through it all the staff could not have been more helpful. In sum, I highly recommend this hotel but suggest checking the room beforehand.

Room Tip: Check for mattress quality and noise

“Nice hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 23, 2013

We stayed here for 4 nights and were very pleased with our experience. The hotel is nothing fancy but definitely a nice place. We stayed in the economy room and I will say that it was VERY small but that wasn't a big deal to us because it was clean. The hotel was in a nice location with easy walking access to the beach and lots of restaurants in Condado. Also, there is a Walgreens right around the corner which was very handy when we got nasty sunburns - it was also convenient because we could grab snacks or bottles of water there for pretty cheap. The hotel staff was helpful and nice. They also have free juice/coffee bar available 24 hours/day and several areas to sit and relax. There is a free breakfast every morning which was basic but it was all we needed - they had toast, pastries, yogurt, cereal, fruit, deli meat, hard-boiled eggs, etc. One negative was that the pool area is very small so if that's important to you that might be an issue.

“Nice place to stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 18, 2013

We stayed here for three nights and our room was on the first floor. We were right next to the pool so there was some noise but most the time, it was quiet. The pool and pool area was quite small but people did use it. The hotel could invest in new pool chairs. Our room was pretty small and the bed was not very comfortable, but we did get the least expensive room, so you get what you pay for. The A/C worked well. There is no TV guide, so I will tell you right now, you can find the channel guide on 899. You can get $1 cokes or water from their mini-bar, a good deal. The soaps/lotions and tub were nice. The courtyard area was wonderful, with plants and birds tweeting all around. Breakfast was mostly pastries and cereal. We enjoyed the coffee machine. In the evening when you go out, you have to rely on the front desk to buzz you back in--and a couple of times it took a while before anyone buzzed us in. But, having said that, the staff was very nice and helpful. The third floor was a great respite after going out and we enjoyed sitting out there in the evening. What's also great about the Coral Princess is its location. Very close to an excellent beach, some great restaurants, the drug store (Walgreens), and the bus to Old San Juan. (Based on what I had read, we decided not to rent a car and found that to be a smart decision. Driving there would be very non-relaxing.) Overall, a good stay.

“Good hotel, Great location & staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 12, 2013 via mobile

Very nice hotel in overall!

Good about this hotel:

•Clean room
•Great staff, helpful, friendly & professional especially Juan!
•Great location in the heart of Condado •Good area for restaurant and beaches
•Free dispenser of juices, coffee, tea
•Many small rooms to have a time break and relax
•Clean and good small swimming pool

No so good

•I had a room just next to the breakfast area and very nose in the morning. To to avoid this one
•Tv: impossible to watch, but to be honest I didn't ask help!
•Parking, only 4 places available. But better than nothing.
•Water in the shower take a wile to be warm/hot

Prices are correct for this area. But in general I was surprise from the high prices level of hotel in San Juan

“Nice hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed February 8, 2013

This hotel was decent. Very pretty and in a great area. Easy to walk to a lot of different restaurants and places. We got upgraded when we arrived and had a nicely decorated room with a big jacuzzi tub. I was a little frustrated because there was no parking and we had to park down the street and pay $13 for overnight. The breakfast was okay, mainly yogurt and boiled eggs and a coffee/juice machine. Overall a decent stay.
