Stayed three nights in a room facing the street and ocean. The room was large and cozy enough with a small balcony. Air conditioning is a problem and cannot be controlled. The bathroom had holes in the window leading to the court which made it very humid. There is no frig and ice does not keep due to humidity. Positives:... More

Loved this hotel. It was not easy to find a parking but once we did it is all walking distance from here. The Forts, San Sebastian St, Paseo La Princesa all within walking distance. For a 300 plus year old colonial mansion it was in good condition. Their waterfront property The Beach House with beautiful views of El Morro and... More

My husband and I only stayed here one night prior to heading to Rincon for the week, but I was so glad we had the opportunity to do so and would do it again despite its imperfections. It's the most unique hotel I have ever been too, and the owners are as interesting as the hotel. If you want a... More

I read mixed reviews on this place and decided to book it anyways, mainly because it was a last minute trip and other places in old San Juan were booked. After our stay, I really don't understand the positive reviews. I enjoy places with character, but i didn't find this place charming. For me it just seemed full of old... More

Staying for 9 nights at the Gallery was an enjoyable, interesting time for us. We were living in an art Gallery with living artists painting and working around us. We spent quite a bit of time enjoying our surroundings without even needing to venture out. The inn was built in the 17th century and some of the walls are pealing... More

My wife and I stayed at the Gallery Inn for 5 nights during our recent stay in PR. It is one of the more unique experiences we have had despite traveling expensively throughout Latin America, Europe, Asia and the United States. Jan is an outstanding host, and has a terrific staff that is able and willing to meet your every... More

I recently stayed at the Gallery Inn for a second time. To me it is San Juan. It is like walking into a living work of art. The hotel is an open air garden experience. I loved sleeping with my window open feeling the warm sea breeze. It overlooks the Atlantic between two ancient forts inside the old city walls.... More

I am still shaking my head at my recent experience at The Gallery Inn. I doubt I can improve upon some of the other guests' narratives, but I feel compelled to add my own. I booked four nights' stay toward the end of March, 2013, a first-ever mother-daughter vacation with my eldest. As we arrived late, we spent our first... More

Dear Guest, First of all, I would like to THANK YOU, for giving us the opportunity to host you and your family while you visited San Juan. We don't receive many families at the Gallery, and your sincere and objective comments have shed light on things we could do to improve the general ambiance and feeling of a suite we... More

We recently traveled to Old San Juan in Puerto Rico, which for the record is a wonderful town to visit, and stayed at the Gallery Inn, right off Calle Norzagaray. I have mixed feelings about our experience, because the Gallery Inn is just the sort of place we like to stay at because it is totally unique and dare I... More

We LOVE to stay here. It is not your typical hotel. There are parrots in the courtyard and art work everywhere. We met the owners and you don't feel like a "number" here. Easy to walk anywhere in Old San Juan from here and we rented a car and drove to the rainforest one day!
