This was a great hotel for the price located in the center of town and convenient to all. The hotel was quaint and charming, the rooms were very comfortable and clean, staff very helpful and courteous, convenient parking and included a very nice continental breakfast. I only stayed 1 night so I couldn't enjoy the pool or relaxing atmosphere, but... More

Last weekend I spent two nights at this hotel. It has an enviable location just steps from Plaza Las Delicias but in an quiet part of Cristina Street. My room was comparable to those on South Beach hotels I've been to. The only downside was that it did not have a personal safe box, which is provided at the front... More

The Hotel Melia is located right in the center of Ponce, across the street from the main plaza where the Parque de Bombas and Cathedral are. It has parking for a minimal charge of $3 per night just up the block. The old hotel that I remember from my childhood in the 1960s has been remodeled and added on to... More

This old hotel has been well-restored. It is located 1/2 block from the central square in old Ponce. The area has been well kept as well and offer excellent opportunites for night time dining and day time snacks. Several of the restaurants have outstanding cuisine. The staff of the hotel were more than accomodating. We arrived just before the high... More

I thought this place was nice. On this particular trip, I was travelling alone and not looking for luxury. I just wanted a simple affordable place to stay while checking out Ponce. Melia was the perfect choice. Upon checking in, the front desk clerk offered me a couple free upgrade options as they were not very full that night. She... More

We had a lovely experience at this hotel. It is located right on the central plaza in Ponce, a beautiful old town. The hotel has colonial architecture, and has been around for over 100 years. They have done a great job updating it, with a beautiful pool, gorgeous roof deck w/ fantastic views over the city, updated rooms w/ all... More

Melia is the best location in Ponce for the value. Located in the center of this southern city in Puerto Rico, the Hotel Melia is comfortable, nice swimming pool! Don't expect a five star hotel but the value can not be matched. Accessible to the best places in Ponce. On every small trip I make to the south, I always... More
