Normandie Hotel San Juan

This was a great boutique hotel. It was very clean. The rooms were trendy and chic and the lobby was the same. There was also an art gallery show in the hotel while we are there, they apparently have lots of those types of events there. The only bad thing was that there was no real beach area, but the hotel is right next to the Caribe Hilton so we used their facilities. You have to be a guest at the Hilton to use it, but we went to have lunch at the restaurant and then just stayed in the outdoor beach area.

I loved this hotel !! It was very reasonable. The rooms were very cool, the lobby is so nice, great place to relax with a cup of coffee. The hotel was in the perfect spot, a short cab ride to Old San Juan in one direction and Isla Verde in th eother ( I personally like Old San Juan much better for restaurants and night life but there was one good place in Isla Verde on a rooftop overlooking the beach in the Water Club hotel)

The concierge was very helpful, and all of the staff nice. The pool is not so big, perfect size. There is no beach really in front of the hotel, but right next store, literally 100 feet is the Hilton and you can just walk through the open air lobby and use their beach which is what we did. That was nice as it is a bay and the water was so calm and clear, they even have hammocks on the beach !
