Despite Sneaky Surcharges, GQ recommends El San Juan Hotel for its Havana 1959 Vibe

Where: 6063 Isla Verde Avenue | Carolina,, San Juan, Puerto Rico, 00979

Everyone's already on the lookout for their winter getaway and winter isn't even here yet. That's how much we either hate winter or just love going to warm-weather locales.

At Men.Style.com, aka GQ's website, they suggest the El San Juan Hotel in San Juan, Puerto Rico if you want to feel like you're in Havana circa 1959 (hasn't everyone always wanted to feel like that?):

Havana 1959: El San Juan Hotel, San Juan. Channel your inner Latin playboy at this grand old modernist masterpiece, which has recently received a pricey makeover that its new owners flag as fifties Cuba-meets-nineties South Beach.

Sounds like a hotspot of cocaine and cigars if you ask us but in truth, staying here does guarantee warm weather, beautiful beaches, a spa and casino.

Rooms are high quality and include luxury linens and WiFi. But forget not, we wrote this place up back in February to alert you to their sneaky surcharges. Two bucks will be added to your bill a day for maid gratuity here. Maybe that's just how it was done in 1950s Cuba?
