I'd agree with all the assessments that this is not a hotel for everyone. But not everyone loves a charming inn, and not everyone likes cockroaches, which are pretty typical in the islands at any place that's not tightly sealed and ventilated with air-conditioning only instead of fresh air. However, if you appreciate a bit of esoterica and interesting artwork,... more

My boyfriend and i just returned from a 5-night stay here and can't wait to tell all our friends about it. If you appreciate boutique hotels in the Caribbean or the smaller inns in Europe then you will love the Gallery Inn. To address some of the compalints made by other reviewers I would say: Having travelled abroad for more... more

Stayed several nights at the Gallery Inn based on reviews on Tripadvisor and Fodor's. Jan, her husband and staff are wonderful hosts and each room has it's own character. The location is very good in terms of walking to everything in old San Juan. Downside was the room was not that clean and had cock roaches. Price was high and... more

We absolutely loved our stay; we were sad to leave. Actually, we spent three nights at a chain hotel on the beach, and then two nights in Old San Juan at The Gallery Inn. We wished we'd left more time for Old San Juan. We were so charmed by the helpful and gracious staff and owners, their talkative pet cockatoos,... more

The Inn is unique and we liked the location. However, it is not the best place we've stayed nor deserving of much of the criticism it has received. The courtyards, artwork and common areas are certainly eclectic and interesting; the rooms are average. While I agree it seems overpriced, it does seem comparable with other options in Old San Juan.... more

From the moment we arrived we experienced superb service from the staff. We were immediately impressed by the unique ambience, beautiful art and furnishings, courtyards and fountains. We wanted a romantic getaway for our first visit visit to Puerto Rico, and the Gallery Inn was perfect. On our first night, the owners welcomed us to their table for drinks. This... more

We stayed 3 nights, with the first night being at the tail-end of a 4 day religious festival (actually, more of a wall-to-wall drinking in the street/noisemaking festival). Our first night there was loud drum music on the streets right outside the hotel until around 4am. It would have been nice if the hotel staff had warned me about the... more

The Gallery Inn is uniquely decorated, as evidenced by the colorful pictures on its website, but my experience there in January 2009 was far from comfortable. Before sharing my observations and experiences, I want to preface my description with the fact that I have traveled around the world and stayed in a variety of accommodations, so this review is not... more
