Old San Juan can be great with the right info. As an insider, I gotta tell that night life in San Juan can seem boring if you don’t know the schedule. Mondays: the only place that get crowd and has a good atmosphere is La Respuesta (the answer) with it Hip Hop night. Is the only place with live on Mondays and is full with cool locals that love to dance and most of them are in the service industry so you have a good chance to meet some nice people. Tuesdays: The first Tuesday of each month is Gallery Night so San Juan is full with crazy youngs that don’t really care about art but wanna have some fun. Gallery Nights take most of the people to San Sebastian Street where you can find a lot of bars. Don’t miss Escenario (knowed as Rumba)with great live music. If not in the mood, stay at Callejon de la Capilla and decide if you want to pay to get in the Nuyorikan Cafe where EVERY Tuesday a salsa band make everybody move. Wednesday is a crappy day to find something to do, so bar-hopping is the must. Thursdays go directly to la plazita, an area with many little and cheap drinks. Ask for fresh coconut water with your whiskey or vodka. Fridays and Saturday are full of options, walk Condado, Old San Juan or Isla Verde and you can be sure youre gonna have fun. Disco: Brava at the lobby of San Juan Hotel y Casino is the best one. Gay Clubs: Eros or Star (these are in Santurce). Sundays are better in Old San Juan with Live music at Nuyorikan Cafe (Salsa) and Escenario (Flamenco Night. Ask local people about partys and festivals and Please, Don’t sleep too much.
