La Botánica Hotel

This was my first solo trip and I loved my stay at La Botanica. This sits right in the middle of all local amenities. The beach is just 2 minutes walk away, many restaurants in close proximity, local metro transportation right next door, friendly staff, delicious vegan breakfast, a nice positive start to the morning by doing yoga..the list just goes on. The hotel is surrounded with lush greenery and it gives an aesthetic appeal. It felt like home away from home.

Highlight of my trip. Everyone was friendly. Location is 3 minute walk to the beach. Make sure you read through the confirmation details after you book. Rooms are unique with a lot of niche details and very clean. The ambience is peaceful and it smells amazing. There’s so many amenities and it feels like an oasis. I will be back and highly recommend. I miss it already…

Thank you guys for this amazing stay! We had a great time at La Botánica Hotel. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The vegan breakfast was very delicious! We stayed in 2 different rooms and both rooms were comfortable and had everything we needed including beach supplies as well. My favorite room was the one with the bathtub outside 😍. The best part is every room had comfortable beds and a shower outside as well. This hotel is full of green plants and flowers, giving a lot of tropical vibes. The neighborhood is safe and the beach was very close, clean, and empty with no people. It was a wonderful experience and I would want to come back again because I loved staying here!

A lovely hidden Gem a couple streets from the beach and 5 mins walking to the restaurants and bars in santurce. The staff was very friendly and accommodating! The self-checking was very easy! It felt safe! The noise is hit or miss because they do have the Sky Restaurant floating above them. But we didn't have much noise in our room! The only thing about my room was the bathroom was a wet room! If you're used to those you'll be fine! I'm not too used to them so it took a bit of a learning curve. The Yoga was nice and so was the Vegan Breakfast! Having all these plants all around made it into a beautiful atmosphere and they keep fresh flowers and string lights everywhere! Definitely a Bohemian vibe!

A very friendly staff who is so welcoming and creates a wonderful experience for its guest. The food was delicious and unique, the house was full of character and charm. The yoga class was so wonderful and we were minutes away from a great beach entrance. Quite a treat to stay here and will do it again soon!

Absolutely excellent experience. Love the place, so thoughtfully designed. Victor, the chef, is an absolute master, makes you “Michelin Star” level plant based breakfast - all included with the room. If you’re in Condado, and want a mindful space with yoga and healthy breakfast, stay here,.” so much value — Thank you ❤️

I had such a serene, relaxing,welcoming stay at La Botanica! The ambiance, food, and staff are exemplary! Victor, Gabriella, and Gianna were wonderful hosts. I will definitely be back! Thank you for making my first solo trip to PR worthwhile 🫶🏾💆🏾‍♀️🧘🏾‍♀️

We had the BEST stay at La Botanica! The rooms were perfect and the vibe was exactly what we wanted. Solange made us incredible breakfasts every morning and the staff could not have been more welcoming and accommodating! The Santurce neighborhood is walkable with lots of cute restaurants and cafes. Highly recommend checking out La Botanica’s digital guide that they provide you with for things to do. 10/10.

stunning boutique hotel - feels like a little green oasis and steps away from the beach! The hotel staff were so accommodating and the chef/food is incredible. Can't say enough good things - would stay here over and over again!

Just WOW! This phenomenal boutique hotel exceeded our expectations. It was immaculate and every nook and cranny was artfully curated. From the hammock in the room, to the trickling water fountains, and the vintage photographs this place was so unique and special. The 24 hr coffee bar was AMAZING! The 8 am yoga classes were perfect and included. The vegan breakfast starting at 9 am was so memorable! We stayed at 2 other hotels on this trip, and this is the only one we are still talking about. If I were a travel agent I would book every client here. The staff was so professional.

This place is so cool! The service is sweet and generous. Great food and tea also. I took a yoga class one morning and it was exactly what I needed. Found this place thru a friend but more people need to know about how cool it is.

Great boutique hotel. Awesome energy by the staff, the architecture and decor is very pleasing to the soul. 1 block away from the beach, and centrally located near all the nice restaurants. I love this place and La Finca.

I love La Botanica Hotel and Wellness Center. It's truly a bit of zen in the city. You walk into the courtyard and are greeted by a fountain and lush landscaping. Through the courtyard, you will find the gift shop and check-in. Our check-in hostess, Kimberlina, was so nice and welcoming. We were able to leave our bags and she gave us a tour. There is a complimentary beverage station and yoga mats for the daily yoga class. The coffee is quite good. A daily vegan breakfast is also offered complimentary. We stayed in the treehouse room. It's up a narrow spiral staircase, but so worth it. At the top of the stairs is the outdoor shower and a deck. To the right is the most adorable room ever, complete with a hammock. The vintage decor is great. The bed is comfy. And I love the essential oil diffuser that had been turned on for us. Water is in your room, as is wine for purchase. La Botanica is in a busy neighborhood, so you can still hear neighborhood sounds, which is perfect for a city girl like me. I didn't see any bugs, which was my greatest fear. Just lots of cute little lizards. And you fall asleep to a coqui symphony. La Botanica is so peaceful and tranquil but you are still close to everything. I highly recommend staying here when in San Juan.

I am writing this because I can not get this hotel to call me back after booking my reservation? I have called, left voicemails, emailed, Facebook messaged, everything. Has anyone else had this troubling experience with this hotel? The reviews all seem to be positive so I am unsure why I am having such a difficult time getting ahold of them for over a week now.

I stayed for 3 nights at this hotel, seven months ago, on my first trip to Puerto Rico. To this day, when I am stressed or overwhelmed, I choose to meditate on all those moments spent at La Botanica. That little piece of heaven on earth is a soul-soother, spirit-cleanser, energy-vitalizer...I can go on. Don't think twice, just book a room! Maybe first talk to the hotel receptionist about your personality and vacation goals, so they can set you up with the most appropriate room as it is a boutique hotel. Kimberlina was so sweet to show me around in all the other rooms and take pictures on my last day. The attention to each detail is phenomenal and inspiring. The young chef (whose name I forgot) was so delightful, chatting with me while I waited for her to cook my fresh hot Indian breakfast (reminded of my childhood days). She mentioned her upcoming plans of transferring soon to the other location on Vieques. That is apparently a much bigger, more intense Ayurvedic retreat. I can't wait to stay there when I visit PR next!

In three days; I have an upcoming birthday trip to La Botanica; which I planned months ago. Yesterday, I reached out to schedule my events and received this email: "Please know unfortunately we have taken a temporary pause on our vegan dinners & are not offering them for the time being. We are also no longer offering the cooking & yoga workshop as our chef who host these events are out for the season. We are very sorry for the inconvenience. Nonetheless, we provide complementary yoga everyday at 8 a.m. We lay out mats, blocks & towels for you to use during the class and your stay! It is followed by our complimentary brunch from 9-11." I based my trip on PR because I wanted to experience the events this hotel had and has listed on their website (AFTER THIS REVIEW: I RECEIVED A CREDIT, I WAS TOLD I "MISTERPRETED OUR OFFERING" AND THEIR WEBSITE REMOVED THE SERVICES IN QUESTION.) I found La Botanica on Instagram so I based my travels around this hotel and its events. For example; my birthday is earlier in the week but I delayed my a trip to experience the 4-course vegan dinner on Friday. I was told "If the booking is canceled less than 7 days before arrival, then a charge equal to the full booking amount will be made. We can give you the option to change your dates & have a credit with us for 1 year." I am extremely upset because this was disingenuous: 1. False advertisement. 2. I was not made aware of this change for of events. 3. I was not offered my money nor a discount. 4. Why would they think I would ever want credit for an unscrupulous company? 5. The last email (there is no phone number listed on their website) was never answered Why I was not made aware, why isn't there an attempt to correct this situation, and what other activities are available at their facility? Therefore in 3 days; I need to forfeit my deposit at La Botanica or find another hotel (last minute) or have a penalty with my airline for a location change.

Had a stay in there Greenhouse Suite really enjoyed our stay there! Starting with the hospitality very caring making sure all yours needs are taken care of! Very friendly and amazing communication! Checking in and checking out was very easy! The room was just as the pictures very nice and calming. Theres a ductless ac system in the room so it can get a lil hot during sun peak hours however there's a fan in the ceiling and a fan you can plug in that helps a little bit with the heat. Coffee,tea, and water was provided as well! The hotel is very beautiful! Amazing plants and flowers throughout the space! There's tables in the patio you can hang out in which is a nice touch. If renting a car parking near by is limited and you have to be very careful where you park or you can get ticketed! Will be coming back! Definitely recommend checking them out and checking out the Greenhouse room as well as there other rooms!

Prior to booking our stay, I was intent on a mini wellness retreat, solo, to start off the new year. I recently completed a 5 day Ayurveda workshop so was inspired to try La Botanica. Once I booked my partner asked to join. I was elated. We chose PR for an easy non stop short flight from Boston. Booking was easy and Claudia and Kimberlina answered all questioned and secured our booking for Urban Treehouse. When we arrived, we entered through a wooden gate and found ourselves in the most splendid garden. The fresh tropical flowers and lush foliage created a warm and welcoming environment. We were greeted by a lovely woman and given a tour. We tucked away our luggage and headed to the beach. The walk is 5 minutes. When we checked in, we navigated a spiral staircase to our romantic oasis. The furnishings were so comfy and the outdoor shower, heaven. We heard the coqui's at night as we sat in our stools and sipped fresh filtered water and discussed our day. Gio and Adriana made lovely Ayurvedic breakfasts which we enjoyed once in house and once to go. The flavors were delicious and plating, artful. There is a water tea and coffee bar and if you wish, wine to purchase. The gift shop features lovely local artisan crafts and jewelry. They sell books from my two favorite authors, Yung Pueblo and my friends, The Ruiz Brothers. I enjoyed daily meditation by the fountain. I took one yoga class which was lovely. Nights were comfortable for sleep with no disturbances. Our stay was a slice of heaven. A side note, Gio, Claudia and Adriana went the extra mile during our stay to curate day trips and dining options. Everything they suggested was spot on. During check out, Kimberlina took time to inquire of my experience and to ensure check out was seamless. I cannot wait to return and will bring a group for retreat.

Dissapointed. The staff are amiable. The negative goes towards the management woman at the location. We had not a pleasent experience. The female boss was extremely rude plus condecending. definitely would not recommend this location or there services including lunch, especially the spa. Think twice before reserving. We suggest you search for better options elsewhere. Good luck.

I went here with my spouse for a stay-cation and couldn't be happier. The breakfast in the morning was high quality and delicious - I loved that it was vegan so I didn't have to ask what ingredients were in the meal and could just trust the chef. The bed in the room was so comfortable, I didn't want to get out of it in the morning. The outdoor shower was probably my favorite part and the only thing that could've made it better is if there was an outdoor bathtub as well. Overall, for the price and the amenities, I couldn't be happier and will certainly be back.

My husband and I stayed here for our baby moon and it was perfect! Beautiful location, lovely amenities, excellent customer service and food - such. cool experience!!! The outdoor showers were amazing - especially when it rained. Definitely a new core memory!

La Botanica is an absolute dream! I've stayed at their sister hotel in Vieques and loved it so much, so I knew this spot would be great! The property itself is absolutely gorgeous, and so was our room! We stayed in the glass cottage which has a beautiful outdoor tub & shower. We enjoyed the very delicious vegetarian breakfast that was included with our stay. What we loved most of all, was the kindness of the staff. We will most definitely be back!

I was fortunate enough to spend eight nights in this beautiful space in March 2023. I stayed in Sylvia's room which is very large and very comfortable. It was exactly what I needed for a vacation, somewhere where I could meditate and sit in the courtyard, read and drink good coffee . It's close to the beach and to many really good coffee shops and eateries , try la coffeetera , Dulce Salado and of course Pinky's .It's walking distance to the PR Museum of Art and to an outside free library . All of the staff are extremely kind. I will definitely be back in 2024
