Hampton By Hilton San Jose Airport Costa Rica, hotel in Alajuela City

Hampton Inn provides modern accommodation just 1,5 km from San Jose International Airport. It features a large pool and a gym, as well as free Wi-Fi and free airport transfers.

We had a clean room with comfy bed and blackout blinds. It is just a few minutes to the airport. Shuttle service is good and we took it the next day to the airport. it would have been great to learn that they do go to the domestic wing of the airport on a schedule. We took a cab to the hotel from the domestic wing the day before and the cab driver ripped us off.

Berlor Airport Inn, hotel in Alajuela City

Airport Hotel Berlor is located just 2 km east of Juan Santamaría International Airport. It features an outdoor pool, free breakfast and colourful rooms with free Wi-Fi.

I was skeptical when I pulled up to the gate, but the Berlor was a little oasis! The staff was extremely helpful and the room looked like it had just been redone! It was small, but very well appropriated. The bed was very comfortable. And very clean. It had everything you needed.

Hotel Aeropuerto, hotel in Alajuela City

Surrounded by native trees and gardens, this hotel is next to Pan American Highway, 4 km from Juan Santamaría International Airport. It offers a pool and free airport shuttle.

Love this place! It's got a post-colonial/Graham Greene/Early Bond vibe going on. The kind of place where the CIA would meet shady local informants to do deals but in very cool surroundings. It's totally incongruous as well, off what is essentially a loud, busy ring road there's this oasis of calm and cool. Think wood paneling, low lighting with a scattering of objects d'art around and maybe a martini or two and you've got the vibe. Awesome place and would 100% recommend.

    Alajuela is a nice area to spend a night or two.

    Alajuela is a nice area to spend a night or two. There are plenty of restaurants and stores around the area. The prices are fairly reasonable and that is a good thing since Costa Rica is more on the expensive side. The are also seems pretty safe.

    This is very close to SJO Airport. Great for before or after flights for that reason (I stayed after and before flights). Alajuela street layout is easy to navigate. Tons of restaurants and shops in the vicinity.

    I think most travelers would not spend more than two nights in Alajuela- 1 inbound and 1 outbound. I spent 5+2 nights in Alajuela while I was getting ready for my family members' visits spread over a few days. Our "suburban" enclave was up-to-date with modern facilities, and close to Alajuela near the Freeway 1. The location where we stayed was "authentic" with a tiny super, a cute bakery, a soda, and the most delightful neighbors. I could almost stay to learn the language. :0

    I stayed pretty close to a large shopping mall--just a few blocks away--so the restaurant options were great. I ate at "Mahalo"--great poke! The house is within a few miles of the airport, so getting there only cost 3 colones, and I took a Tuasa bus (for about two dollars) to get to Alajuela from downtown San Jose. The only "negative" is that there were traffic sounds, but they settled down when it got later. I would definitely stay in Alajuela again. I felt completely safe walking back alone at night after dinner.

    The area is fun and easy to get around. There are many small stores, but no good supermarkets. TONS of cafes and fast food places, so getting something to eat is easy. I'd go there again, but there's not a ton to do unless you enjoy sitting in parks, which I do.

    We chose a location close to the airport, good price, no luxury. We got what we paid for: in the vibrant and authentic old town of Alajuela (what is much more attractive than the huge city area of San Jose), a familiar bed and breakfast, with a nice little room for a fair price. The staff is very friendly and they serve a well organized breakfast in the pretty patio. They organized us a taxi that appeared exactly at 4 pm and the very important sense of staying there was done perfectly. Thanks for this great stay!

    I chose Park View hotel because of its location and good price. I wasn't disappointed - it's a short taxi ride from the airport and was relatively cheap compared to many San Jose hotels. Although the staff didn't speak much English, we managed to understand each other. Breakfast was good and the staff were helpful.
