Hilton (NYSE: HLT) today announced the signing of an agreement to welcome Palacio Provincial to Curio Collection by Hilton.
Owned by Hostal El Convento and managed by International Hospitality Enterprises (IHE), the esteemed Palacio Provincial Hotel in Old San Juan will join a global portfolio of more than 160 distinct, upper-upscale hotels and resorts under the Curio Collection by Hilton brand and will represent Hilton’s debut in the historic city.
Located within the Old San Juan Historic District, the oldest European settlement in Puerto Rico and the United States, the 43-room boutique hotel is incomparably situated in the heart of the city inside an early 19th century building full of rich diplomatic history dating back to 1838.
In 2021, Palacio Provincial opened its doors following a meticulous restoration to usher in a new era for this historic gem, combining timeless elegance with modern luxury.
"We are thrilled to announce the signing and upcoming conversion of Palacio Provincial, Curio Collection by Hilton and expanding Hilton’s Puerto Rico portfolio to such a sought-after destination with a remarkable hotel that preserves the cultural legacy of Old San Juan and meets our guests in the destinations they want to travel,” said Pablo Maturana, vice president, development, Caribbean and Latin America, Hilton.
“The signing reflects our commitment to expand our robust pipeline in the region and nearly double our presence in Puerto Rico.”
Nestled in an architecturally significant building, the hotel’s interior design boasts a chic and inviting atmosphere that combines urban sophistication with laid-back charm, featuring stylish furnishings, ambient lighting, and a vibrant energy that sets the stage for unforgettable moments.
Guest rooms feature thoughtfully designed rooms and suites showcasing 12-foot wooden window doors leading out to Juliet balconies offering captivating views of Old San Juan.
Furnishings include plush beds, large smart TVs, work desks, custom wall cabinets and accents of history, art, culture and bright colored decor.
Palacio Provincial’s culinary offerings include an oasis-like courtyard restaurant, Consular Restaurant & Bar, and the Atelier Rooftop Terrace, one of the newest venues in Old San Juan providing remarkable views of San Juan Bay and the Colonial city.
For events of all scales, from intimate gatherings to grand celebrations, the property boasts versatile and stylish spaces that offer natural light and iconic history.
Hilton currently welcomes guests across a portfolio of nine hotels spanning six of Hilton’s industry-leading brands in Puerto Rico, and more than 30 hotels across the broader Caribbean region.
Palacio Provincial will offer guests the benefits of Hilton Honors, the award-winning guest-loyalty program for Hilton's distinct hotel brands.
