Liked: Staff & service
Alicia was very nice and accommodating at our arrival and check out. She wasn't hesitant in refunding the drink credit that was promised after a hiccup by the other staff members. The artsy aesthetic was very nice, but it could use some updating as the elevator is very slow. I bought my own washcloths and towels at Walmart because they were very dingy and nowhere close to white. The pillows were yellow and old under the pillowcase. I requested for flowers to be delivered to my fiancé for her birthday and confirmed several times with the staff and was told that it would be there at the 9 am requested time. After giving a grace period, I contacted the front desk to inquire about the flowers and was told they'd be up shortly. As I'm leaving to go to Pueblo I see the manager leaving at the same time to go make the arrangement and I told her I can buy my own flowers. She did apologize and brought us a complimentary bottle, told us that we had a $50 credit for the bar until we leave, and did still go get the flowers. I think this could have been avoided if communication between shifts was better. Overall I have no complaints about my stay.

Stayed at this property for 3 nights and we had fantastic experience. Don Rafa’s Boutique Hotel exceeded my expectations. From the friendly staff to the hotel’s cleanliness, everything was phenomenal. This hotel is beautiful, the decor and the ambience is very cozy. We had a junior suite and the room was very spacious for the 2 of us. The room had a decent-sized fridge that came in handy to store leftovers from the restaurants we explored, as well as to keep our water bottles nice and cool. The location was perfect. We went for the Bad Bunny concert and this hotel was literally a 10 minute drive from el Coliseo José Miguel Agrelot. It is also located 10 minutes away from Old San Juan and like 6-7 minutes away from Distrito T-Mobile. All in all I highly recommend this hotel for anybody looking for well-located, cozy and private hotel that won’t put a hole in your pocket. We will definitely be back!

Luxury Redefined

*5/5 stars* We recently had the pleasure of staying at the Rafa Hotel in Miramar, PR, and I must say, it exceeded my expectations in every way. The rooftop pool was the highlight of my stay, offering breathtaking views of the city and a tranquil atmosphere that made it easy to unwind. The food at the hotel's restaurant was exceptional, with a wide range of delicious options to choose from. Everything was mouth-watering, with rich and savory flavors that left me wanting more. But it wasn't just the empanadas - every dish I tried was expertly prepared and presented, with a focus on fresh, high-quality ingredients. The service was friendly and attentive, and the ambiance was warm and welcoming. I would definitely recommend Rafa Hotel to anyone looking for a great dining experience and a relaxing stay in Miramar.
