Top Río Piedras Hotel Reviews

Caribe Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Great location we had a lot of fun"

Hyatt Vacation Club at Hacienda del Mar, Dorado

10/10 Excellent

"The villas that offer a full kitchen are SO nice. It was a resort style vacation with a bit of “home” like comfort because we had the ability to buy and cook our own food. Rooms - nice, modern, and clean. Bathroom - has 2 entrances - 1 from common area and 1 from the bedroom. Toilet is separated from shower, which is nice. Amenities in shower are nice and clean. Pool - amazing. It’s large and spacious with a nice shallow end and a deep end. Food - the poolside bar/restaurant"

Hyatt Regency Grand Reserve Puerto Rico

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were super clean along with everywhere else. You can kayak for free on the beach. The pools were nice and clean and open till 10:00am. On Saturday, there was calypso band playing near the lobby. Nectar is by far the best restaurant and the staff are super nice as well as the main lobby staff for the hotel. The Sand trap restaurant is horrendous, cheap tasting food (fries, burgers, tenders…) and the staff are super rude. Avoid it! I’ve been here multiples times and will continue to stay as it’s an amazing location."
