Da House Hotel in Old San Juan, PR is a Bohemian style hotel with an artistic flair in a colorful Caribbean setting. Its location just above the Nuyorican Café in the center of Old San Juan puts you within walking distances to most sights, restaurants and shopping. Also, if you’d prefer to ride, there’s a convenient and free Trolly system that stops at the sites in Old San Juan. Hop on and hop off at your liesure. An open air Tram is also available if you’d like to ride to visit the forts in Old San Juan.
The guestrooms, named after famous local artist, are tastefully decorated with antique furnishings and local art giving them an old world charm. We have always found the rooms at Da House to be clean and comfortable although the bathrooms can be on the small side. There are no TVs, elevators or restaurant but we think its central location in Old San Juan and reasonable prices make up for anything the hotel may lack.
Da House rooms have air conditioning, phone, high-speed Internet and private bathrooms. Guest can enjoy the rooftop sun deck with a whirlpool. But be warned – on nights when the live salsa band is rocking at the Nuyorican Café below, the rooms overlooking the alley close to the party, as it’s referred to, enjoy the music all night too! We found the interior rooms to be quieter and not a problem.

We enjoyed the rooftop view at Da House Hotel. This is the early morning view of Old San Juan, the Atlantic Ocean and San Cristóbal Fort. Time to have breakfast and spend the day exploring Old San Juan; it looks like it’s going be another beautiful day in the Caribbean sunshine!
