Where to Stay Near the Airport in Santurce: 15 Hotels Reviewed

Ciqala Suites Hotel - San Juan sits on Avenida Fernández Juncos, placing it under 640 metres from the Puerto Rico Convention Center and about 1.5 km from Isla Grande Airport - one of the shortest airport-to-hotel distances in the district.

Free parking and a free beach shuttle - with the Atlantic coast beach just 700 metres away - make this especially useful for guests arriving with a rental car or traveling as a group.
