First Leading Hotels property to open in Puerto Rico

VERANÓ Hotels + Resorts, an operator of luxury lifestyle hotels and resorts, will open VERANÓ San Juan, the first Leading Hotels of the World property in Puerto Rico.  The culturally relevant luxury lifestyle hotel is poised to become an instant landmark in the heart of Santurce's business and cultural district, providing convenient access to San Juan's vibrant galleries, acclaimed restaurants and key corporate hubs.

VERANÓ San Juan, transformed from a 1950s office building, has been designed to cater to the city's growing demand for design-forward, upmarket business and leisure accommodations. The hotel will have multiple room choices, including Juliet balcony rooms overlooking Ave. Ponce de Leon, 17 corner suites, and three signature Ó executive suites, all blending Puerto Rico's rich cultural heritage with contemporary design trends.

Each room has spacious layouts, modern sophistication, Colonial Spanish-styled Juliet balconies and expansive views of the Condado, Miramar and Hato Rey skylines. Handcrafted custom furnishings from Puerto Rico, Peru and Spain complement the rich interiors.

Each VERANÓ Hotel and Resort features a private members club, the VERANÓ Clubhouse, designed to embody the distinct personality, culture and flavor of its local neighborhood. The Clubhouse has curated, elevated experiences, including wine and dinner pairings, workshops, and exclusive events that celebrate local culture while providing opportunities for like-minded leaders to connect.

"VERANÓ San Juan is more than a hotel—it's a culturally relevant lifestyle experience that encapsulates the energy and sophistication of San Juan and Puerto Rico," John Sears, managing director of VERANÓ Hotels + Resorts, said in a statement. "Over the past two and a half years, the development team has carefully and creatively planned the adapted reuse 1950s building to pay homage to San Juan's storied past, while offering a modern, luxurious escape in the city's business and cultural heart."

VERANÓ San Juan will open its doors in spring 2025.
