We did not stay a single night. When we arrived we were told our room was not ready. We went to the pool area to have a cocktail. The pool furniture was is modest shape at best, paint was peeling from the foundation walls and generally the place did not look fresh or clean. After a couple of hours we were told that there were no king rooms even though we had a reservation for one and had actually upgraded. We were told that they had a queen room. When we got to the room the balacony overlooked a roof and hvac equipment. The room smelled of mold. When my wife stepped out of her shoes her foot was soaked by the rug. It was disgusting. I am a long time ACCOR member and have written to your CEO. We recently stayed at the Fairmoont in Seattle - a wonderful experience. Fairmont San Jaun was not that. The staff was also like deer in the headlights - clearly not trained in handling an awkward situation. This property needs new management and new investment.

Dear Don E., Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding your recent experience at Fairmont El San Juan Hotel. I sincerely apologize for the inconveniences you encountered during your visit. It is disheartening to learn that your room was not ready upon arrival and that the accommodations did not meet your expectations. We strive to maintain high standards of cleanliness and comfort, and it is clear that we fell short in this instance. The condition of the pool area and furniture is also noted, and I appreciate your observations as they are vital for our ongoing improvements. I regret that our team did not handle the situation with the professionalism you deserved. Your feedback regarding the staff's preparedness will be communicated to our management for further review. We value your loyalty to the Fairmont brand and understand your disappointment, especially in comparison to your previous stay in Seattle. We would like to invite you back to a 3day/2night complimentary stay to showcase who we truly are; if this interests you, please feel free to reach out to me directly (yv…) Thank you for bringing these matters to our attention. Best regards, Yvonne Ramos Director of VIP Services

I stayed at the Fairmont with my partner for the weekend. When we arrived our initial room was not ready at 5:30pm so we were moved to a room on the 9th floor. Initially the room seemed fine. However, we quickly noticed that there was no hot water. Only lukewarm water at best. We reported this to the front desk 3 times during our stay and nothing was done. Moreover, we had to ask for room service twice since the room was not cleaned by 5pm on 2 of the days of our stay. When I asked to switch rooms after the hot water was not resolved the first day, I was told it was impossible as they were full. When I checked out and ask for a rate reduction because we did not have hot water I was told to "send an email."

Dear Sara O., Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your recent stay at Fairmont El San Juan Hotel. I sincerely apologize for the inconveniences you experienced, particularly with the hot water and room service. We strive to provide our guests with the highest level of service and comfort, and it is disappointing to learn that we fell short during your visit. Your concerns regarding the hot water and the cleanliness of your room have been noted. While we always aim to accommodate our guests' requests, there are times when full occupancy limits our options. I understand how frustrating this can be, and I appreciate your patience as we work to enhance our services. Regarding the checkout experience, I regret that the resolution process was not satisfactory. We will review our communication protocols to ensure our guests’ concerns are addressed more effectively in the future. Thank you again for your valuable feedback, and I hope you will consider staying with us again. Sincerely, Fairmont El San Juan Hotel

Nicholas R. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

We stayed at the Fairmont for 4 nights and had a great time. The pool and beach area were excellent. There was a dj playing great music and the atmosphere was fun. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Fun entertainment at night in the lobby. The rooms were clean. The only 2 negatives are 1- we payed a lot of money per night for an ocean view room and instead got a pretty terrible view of building rooftops with a tiny glimpse of the ocean. It is actually absurd that those rooms were considered ocean view. 2-the food and drinks were ridiculously expensive.

Dear Nicholas R., Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at Fairmont El San Juan Hotel. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed a comfortable stay and appreciated the vibrant atmosphere, friendly staff, and entertainment options. We sincerely regret that your ocean view room did not meet your expectations. We strive to provide our guests with the best accommodations possible, and we understand how important the view can be during your stay. Additionally, we acknowledge your concerns regarding the pricing of our food and beverage offerings. Our aim is to provide quality services that reflect the unique experience we offer. We appreciate your feedback, which helps us enhance our guests’ experiences. We hope to welcome you back in the future for an even better stay. Best regards, Fairmont El San Juan Hotel
