San Juan Hotel - Miami Beach

The rooms are simple, baths are renovated and rather big by budget hotel standards. Staff was very nice. Location is perfect: one block from the beach and two blocks from Lincoln Drive with many restaurants and shops. Great option is you don't mind budget hotels. Certainly, my favorite budget hotel thus far in South Beach and I will return.

On the plus side, the hotel is at a great location. It is a block from the beach, on Collins St., across the street from Ritz Carlton. The price was pretty good, considering a lot of the hotels around the area cost a few hundred dollars a night. On the negative side, the hotel itself was so so. The bathroom was newly done and was great. There was no […] thermostat in the room, and even though we closed the vent, it was still a little chilly. The hotel lobby had an odor which bothered me. Our room faced the adjacent hotel, so we had to keep the curtains closed all the time. Overall, I guess it wasn't too bad since we didn't want to spend $300 for Ritz. If you're looking for a low price hotel to sleep in and don't plan on spending too much time at the hotel, I would recommend it. Read more

Bad hotel....because the room is so old

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Room was very basic, bed, 2 end tables, table and two chairs. However, there was a refrigerator and microwave. The in-room safe was at eye-level and convenient to use. The bathroom was newly renovated and very nice! It was as nice as the InterContinental, only much smaller! The staff was friendly and helpful.

looking for a hotel to stay and sleep it was perfect. nothing fancy.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

It is hard to beat the price and location combo of this hotel - few factors might be deal breakers for other travelers (no climate control on the room), but it is apparent that they are trying to make improvements and little aesthetic items don't bother me. The front desk people were very helpful.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

No problems. Room was very spartan.No clock,no phone.Bathroom was completely redone.Pool does exist, but is out back surrounded by cinder block walls.Our night there was very quiet. Parking is around the block, $30.00 a night. There is a liquor store right next store.For the price, I would stay here again, but if you're trying to impress, you may want […] to go elsewhere.Wife at first, didn't want to stay. Read more

Hotel pretty good, convenient rooms, perfect location very close to Ocean Drive and Lincoln mall.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel was going through some remodeling so I didn't expect that I was going to be in tip top shape but it served its purpose. The beds wasn't comfortable, towels were rough, tv was old but the staff was helpful. I didnt expect much since the price was low enough to not mind those little things. Over all it's okay if your not a picky person.

If you want to stay in walking distance of all the action and you're trying to save a few bucks, this place is for you.

Was good for the price and the purpose of the trip.would go back

First and most important, the bathrooms are renovated and they are perfect, clean and with hot water!. Location is amaizing, close to Lincon Rd, La Espanola Way (awsome restaurants) and convetion center. For the hotels near by that are super expensive San Juan Hotel is just right for the price, nothing fancy, just what you need for a few nights.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Let me start by saying that you cannot beat the location of the San Juan.It is literally right in front of the Delano on Collins.Only one block away from Lincoln and its restaurants it is an ideal spot in South Beach. That is where the good things end unfortunately.The building is old and creaky, the elevator is also very old and the hall floors make […] noise as you walk .The rooms are from a one star hotel,sheets and other beddings are about as thin as you can imagine and the floor to floor carpet smelled of mold.My room gave to the back where a huge HVAC system made an annoying noise night and day.The room had a flat screen TV but I lost signal the first day of my stay and never got it back.To summarize;great hotel for students and young people that do not mind camping out in a barely adequate room and for people for which location is the ONLY thing that matters.

People at the desk was really friendly, it was as close as you can be to the beach, it's a safe location. The bad thing is that the pool did't look clean at all, the rest ok.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

It's OK with the price at the location, but the facilities are old.

Genuine Expedia guest review

This hotel isn't worthy of a 2 star rating. The room, carpet, curtains and walls are dingy and dirty. There weren't nightstands or lamps beside the bed. I wouldn't bathe my dog in the swimming pool at San Juan Hotel. I had booked two nights, but checked out after the first night. I want my money back.

I've stayed at this hotel before, so I knew what to expect. It's not a luxury hotel, however staff are very pleasant and attentive. The hotel has been updated in the last few years, however the work was sloppy (window sill not secured to the ledge as an example). Nevertheless, the hotel is bug free, quiet and convenient walking distance to all the hot […] spots. Read more

The rooms were renovated and spacious. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. And the location is perfect, close to the beach and nightlife.

Genuine Expedia guest review

This is a well worn hotel needing much upgrading. My room had a tv that only rarely had english speaking programs, no radio, no tv guide, no clock, no alarm, no way of turning off the a/c, no bedside light, had to turn light off at the door then feel your way to the bed. No coffee making facilities and charged me $25 a day to park my car. The bed was […] clean and towels changed daily. Room was quiet. Carpet need replacing. Read more

The staff was nice. The room was pretty basic. TV only had a few local channels, no cable. Beds weren't luxurious or anything but they were acceptable. The bathroom looked newly remodeled and was very nice. Understand that this is an old building and the bathrooms are going to be small. And there was only a shower, no tub.

Staff was nice. Room was clean. Close to stores and beach

Genuine Expedia guest review

We stayed at the San Juan after our cruise to enjoy our vacation a little longer and had a wonderful time. The staff was curteous and helpful. Our room was clean and quiet. The only improvement would be to have coffee in the room or at least in the lobby. We will definately stay here again.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Everything was clean, nice, friendly and helpful staff. The AC in the room could've been a bit colder but other than that we had a comfortable stay and the location is great. Close to all.

It was great but the ac was too low, freezing temperature. I couldn't find the controls in the room. I could call for assistance but fall asleep... other than that it was ok

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Rooms are pretty shabby. No TV reception. Kitchenette and closet were one in the same, at least in my room anyway. Best part was the bathroom...very up-to-date. Unfortunately on the last night, friends staying in an adjacent room found a bed bug on the bed sheet. Luckily our group had two other rooms for them to crash (hotel was booked, according to […] front desk). At check out, after seeing evidence of bed bug, manager comped friends for the last night.

Not the most fancy of the hotels but given the low price and great location I must say it is well worth it. Dress up and cross the street to Delano and you will forget the no bar and rent by the hour impression from San Juan...

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel staff was very helpful and friendly and it's in the best location. The beach was literally a two min walk and all the hottest night clubs was around the corner.

Genuine Expedia guest review

My stay was terrible, the hotel RIGHT OUTSIDE our window was being remodeled and construction started right at 6 a.m. The noise never stopped. San Juan may have not been able to help that, but central air in a hotel!? i have never heard of such thing. Most hotels have their own a/c unit in each room, thins is not the case at San Juan. A hot hotel room […] on Miami Beach is the last place you want to be after spending the day in the hot sun. I give San Juan 2 BIG THUMBS DOWN! BOOOOOO! Read more

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Not so expensive especially for that location which is great!! And swimming pool is quite nice

Genuine Expedia guest review

For this budget hotel we weren't expecting a lot, but were actually pleasantly surprised. It was clean and comfortable, we felt quite safe and the price was very good for the location. It's a 5 minute walk to the beach, 7 minutes to Ocean Drive and 2 minutes to Lincoln Ave Mall. It had good amenities, including a fridge, microwave and air-condition. […] The room itself looked a little aged, but the bathroom was renovated and nice. And as a bonus, there was more than just soap (deodorant, toothpaste, etc.) In addition to our prepaid reservation, we were asked for a 30 USD collateral for incidentals, but this was returned afterwards.

Very clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I love having a refrig and microwave in the room. It would be nice to have a coffee maker. The pool area is small, but nice. The hotels location is excellent, near the beach and around the corner from Lincoln Rd. dining.

I come to Miami annually and have stayed at many hotels on South Beach and this was one of my favorites. The staff was great. Everyone in the hotel was helpful and very polite. the bathroom was very clean and beds were clean. The location of the hotel was great for dining, beach and night life. I never come to Miami to stay in the room so if that's […] your plan this is the wrong place for you. This hotel is small quiet and nice place for single males and females. I had a great time at the San Juan.This place made my vacation painless. Read more

I have stayed in the hotel once before, a year ago. Perfect location if you are going to South Beach for the clubs and beach experience. Hotel is old and in decent shape over all. Perfect cheap hotel if your not planning on spending your vacation trapped in a hotel room. Hotel rooms have recent renovations. Bathrooms, carpets, doors, and paint.

DETAILED REVIEW HERE!!!! Great Hotel, Staff, Price, Location, and Overall Value! I'm 22 and I stayed there from Thursday-Mon. The staff was super helpful and everyone was so nice, they let me check in early, let me put my bags in storage while I waited for my shuttle bus and even had beach towels for Fun in The Sun. My room was on the 3rd floor, Queen […] super spacious room w/all the perks. Full size mirror, fridge, microwave, etc. My friends were jealous they paid more. for less:-# T.V. had enough channels and the bathroom was beautiful. I really didn't notice the renovations next door unless I walked outside. Great location and view.The only bad thing is that the elevator was down for a couple hours ( but c'mon it only has three floors.lol), there was a plastered spot on the wall beside the microwave & the trim at the window seal could use a little tending too. However, considering the price...AWESOME! Besides who has time to sleep when you're in Miami? Haha Unless you're super picky, uppity I don't see why this hotel wouldn't be great for you. Thanks San Juan & Expedia!!! Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

For the last 5 years, I have visited Miami at least once a year. In the past 10 years, I have stayed at San Juan Hotel at least 5 times. Each time, it's gotten better. I stayed there for Labor Day weekend (Sep 2012) at a pretty reasonable rate. I usually don't ask a lot in 2.5 star hotels, but during this particular weekend, they exceeded my expectation. […] The double room was clean and had 4 large towels plus wash cloths. The bathroom was bright and nicely updated. Maid service was consistent. I didn't smell the standard mildew that tends to plague most hotels on South Beach. They even had someone at the entrance to open the door to welcome you to the hotel. I am not sure if that’s a regular thing though, so don’t expect that if you decide to stay there. The staff (day and night) was extremely courteous and helpful. The room had a safe, small refrigerator, microwave and iron with ironing board. The centrally controlled air conditioner worked perfectly. I’m glad that they had blankets though, because I really needed it one night. You can't beat the location. Not in the middle of the mayhem but close enough to everything you need: 1 block to Lincoln Mall; 1 block to the beach; a few blocks to the center on nightlife on Ocean drive; 2 blocks from CVS/Walgreen; across the street from the bus stop for the Express Airport Flyer. I would definitely stay there again if there's a good rate. Read more

Do not stay here!! This hotel is run down, the rooms are out dated, and the service is the worst. The bathroom had a disgusting moldy plastic shower curtain and a shower chair that looks like it has been there for years. The bedspread looked like it has never been washed, there were several strands of human hair on it (completely gross). The iron didn't […] work at all. There were holes and stains on the walls. Overall it was a horrible experience staying at this hotel. Never again Read more
