Room was fantastic. We stayed here when we arrived and before we left Costa Rica for 1 night because of it location near the airport. Breakfast was amazing and the steakhouse restaurant evening meal was exceptional. Ideal as an airport stop over hotel but it was such a nice place, I wish I had stayed longer.

I’ve visited San Jose Costa Rica many times since the 1970s.
I’ve visited San Jose Costa Rica many times since the 1970s. It’s gotten completely jammed with traffic, but it is a beautiful city with lots to see and admire. My favorite is the old concert hall, which I’m blanking on the name, but it is the only concert hall I believe in the city. Being a city it’s always important to watch your pockets, and this is become a problem, the last couple decades. The people in general are very charming and it is definitely worth a visit.

I didn’t really like anything.
I didn’t really like anything. The front desk made me carry my bag up 4 flights of stairs. The room was so hot when I got inside. There was no coffee in the rooms at all and I asked multiple time for it. The shower was also clogged.

San Jose as city is not too much to believe as other cities and is a crowded city We stayed at the outside skirts of San Jose where you have more nature, mountains/scenery and less city life and visited the city several times.

If you like a big city, San Jose is great.
If you like a big city, San Jose is great. We live in southern Costa Rica and only go to San Jose for doctor visits and shopping. It's best to take a taxi or Uber in San Jose. The traffic is crazy. Be sure to use the WAZE app instead of Google for driving around. It stays more up to date.

I did a tour for the first two weeks of the volcano area, rain forest, Caribbean, and then the Pacific side of the island. During the tour, we also ziplined, rode horseback, white water rafting, soaked in hot springs, and hiked the rain forest and volcano areas.
When the tour ended I stayed for another 10 days in downtown San Jose and did day trips out of the apartment.
People are family-oriented, friendly, and supportive. You can drink the water and use US electric devices. Go, you will love it.
Probably one of the most wonderful hotel experiences I have ever had. Beautiful architecture and decor, mountain views, and excellent service from the staff.
Everything was over the top. They offer an incredible breakfast spread (with many, many juices). Pool/bar area is very luxurious. Adjacent to several shops, a spa, grocery, food truck court (very nice, with a large, collaborative patio area, and restaurants. Also very close to the San Jose airport.
We will return to this magnificent hotel again!
The property was nice and was very clean and comfortable. The hotel is very far from the center of San Jose. A lot of tour companies use this hotel as the starting point to their tours of Costa Rica. If you want to be in San Jose which is very nice to visit do not stay here. It is far from the airport and anything that San Jose has to offer. It will cost you an expensive taxi or Uber ride to get to San Jose and back to the hotel.
The food was so so and expensive. It is better to go out of the hotel to eat.
This is by far the most luxurious and best hotel I stayed in during the 4 week holiday in Costa Rica. Even compared to other top hotels I've been in around the world it is up to par. The rooms are freshly and tastefully renovated, all amenities work in top quality, the common areas are spacious and inviting to spend time there. The breakfast offers great variety and great quality. The bar also is very good and enjoying your drinks overlooking the Plaza de la Cultura is really nice.
The night was confortable as well as the uncomplicated check in. For all sorts of questions about San Jose and travaling around Central America
we could talk to the very friendly English speaking host of the In The Wind Hostel and also to other travalers and guests in the lovely atrium garden while enjoying the amazing pancake breakfast. In all it´s an ideal and safe place to start your jurny in San Jose or even in Costa Rica, if your not looking for some luxary hotel.
This is a lovely authentic old colonial family house converted to a hotel..It's excellent value for money. The staff & owner are very friendly & go out of their way for their clients.The breakfast is light & very nice. The hotel is very close to lots of lovely outdoor restaurants & coffee shops in Escalante, one of the best areas in downtown San Jose, so it's worth checking out. All in all, this hotel is excellent value & we will certainly book it again upon our return.
Best hostel in Costa Rica hands down. 4 weeks spent here overall..Wonderful family, I wish I had their love /hoapitality back home. Its quiet, lovely communal area, wonderful breakfast. Great shower, lovely guests. Its awesome. I love it, booked an extra 3 nights. I'm easily pleased but this is the de-facto place to stay I'm San Jose should you be looking for a dorm bed. David is just the best, lovely wife and children. I'll miss it terribly. Thank you David and co.
The property was absolutely beautiful with amazing views of the skyline. There are many outdoor areas with lots of seating. Very peaceful. The staff was incredibly accommodating and understanding. I had a delayed flight and they waited well after hours for me to arrive. They also helped with the car the next day. Very friendly and professional. I have found my San Jose hotel! Already about to make another reservation. I highly recommend this property!
Rooms were plenty spacious and you could not ask for a more central location. We were only in San Jose for a day but we were able to walk to see everything. Also the breakfast was UNREAL - so good and so many options. We also had a drink at their bar after are long flight. The staff was very welcoming and nice. It’s was a great start to our Costa Rica trip and even though we were there for only one night, the hotel left a really welcoming impression.
A good four star hotel with everything you expect. We stayed here before and the standard rooms are spacious and well appointed. This time, we were bumped to a suite which was very comfortable. The lounge area is big and comfortable. The bar is good with meals at reasonable prices. The garden and pool area is very pretty. It's a little way out of the centre of San Jose, but very convenient for the airport, with a free bookable shuttle.
Spent one night in San Jose as my flight arrived in the evening. The hotel is located downtown and was a short walk from the bus station upon arrival and back to get a bus to my destination in the morning. The room reasonably priced, clean and the street noise wasn't too bad (no issues sleeping) given that it is located in the centre of a major city. I'll stay again if I ever need to spend a night in San Jose.
Excellent location in one of the most lively areas in San Jose with many restaurants and services at a walking distance. Excellent for 1 or 2 nights in San Jose. We booked a private room and it exceeded our expectations, great value for money compared to all the places we have been in Costa Rica. I would recommend to anyone spending few days in San Jose. Nice vibes and decoration.
The location for visiting the museums in San Jose is excellent. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The hotel is modern and clean, and our room was furnished very nicely. The bed was comfortable and the linens were of very good quality. Some reviewers complained of noise from other rooms, but we could not hear our neighbors. The rooftop sitting area is beautiful.
Charming place in the very centre of San José. Nice, refreshing pool and warm jacuzzi. The breakfast is served a la carte (you have three options to choose from). All of them come with good coffee and fresh fruits. The hotel provides a very good base to explore the capital and prepare for the rest of your journey in Costa Rica.
Very nice owners!
It's in downtown San Jose so it's close to great food and transportation. The staff went over and beyond to help me so much I booked 2 more nights. Across the street from the jade museum, this oasis always had a soft breeze blowing in with beautiful plants hanging around. Comfortable beds with hot water!!
Great location near the airport and near San Jose downtown, but not in the center which is nice to have a nice and quite rest. The staff is really accommodating and available 24/7. The breakfast is done on the spot and fresh. Which is a nice touch.
Location for this hotel is great. It's in the heart of Barrio Escalante which is the best area in San Jose. it's got many great restaurants and shops and easy, safe walking areas. It's a very basic hotel, but the price reflects that.
It was on Central Avenue, which is as Downtown San Jose as it gets...The restaurant downstairs had a nice glass open windows , wonderful for people watching, also the breakfast was tasty.
Hotel location is excellent. Beautiful park opposite and walkable to Downtown San Jose. Buffet breakfast with good variety to suit everyone. Two large comfortable beds.
Old San José property but super quaint. Old open floor plan… outdoor courtyard… rooms a comfortable size… absolute great location for downtown… unbeatable price.
