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.

We stayed here on our last night but wished we hadn't.
We stayed here on our last night but wished we hadn't. The hotel was good but there was nothing special about the city and we would have preferred to be back in Alajuela where we stayed on the first night. There was much less traffic there and lots of different birds in the trees. The park in San Jose only had grackles.

There is plenty to do in San Jose and the surrounding area.
There is plenty to do in San Jose and the surrounding area. Three places to recommend: the Jade Museum, the Post Office Museum and Lankester Botanical Garden on the road to Paraiso. The Jade Museum is a revelation - it is in a new building and has a wonderful exhibition about the Pre-Colombian inhabitants of Central America. Don't be put off by its title - it is not a museum of dusty cabinets full of jade objects. Just to the right of the entrance to the Central Post Office is a museum with displays of various themes - space, calypso, biodiversity - illustrated with stamps from all over the world. The Lankester Gardens is a gem. It's a centre for the study of orchids so visit at the right time of year, e.g. March, when many are in flower. The gardens are beautifully laid out and very well cared for.
The hotel is convenient located 10 minutes away from the airport and offers pick up and drop off shuttle for free which is great for someone that needs to stay only a couple of nights in San Jose.
The room is very spacious and the bed is comfortable. The amenities offered in the bathroom are also great and internet speed works just fine. The pool area is beautiful and the gym has the necessary equipments to work out.
The staff is very friendly and ready to help with any tip that we needed about the city/transportation.
Cozy hotel, close to University of Costa Rica at San José, located in San Pedro. Walkable to the nearest mall (Mall San Pedro - around 15 minutes walking from the hotel), by car it is at 10-15 minutes far away from San José down town. My arriving flight was very early, and they provided me an available room despite I arrived very early morning. Nice breakfast (the common breakfast included gallo pinto -beans and rice-, eggs and fruits, but they offered me several options for breakfast). Lovely staff.
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.
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.
The staff was very polite and courteous. Hotel clean and smells very fresh. Relaxed and quiet atmosphere. The breakfast is outstanding. Clean towels, bedding very clean and neat. I love so much making a third week to stay again. I would highly recommend this hotel if you’re ever in San Jose Rohrmoser. Very professional staff. A very quiet area. Even the taxi driver Herman is an outstanding help. They tended to me with utmost respect.
The location was great, in a neat area of San Jose. The hotel seemed nice, we enjoyed all the wall decor although our kids found some nude portraits quite funny. Breakfast was good and it was our first encounter with the traditional food. We did try the local restaurant for dinner but the pizza was not the best. Beds were ok, pillows could have been better and bathroom amenities could be improved too.
The staff, hotel and location are fantastic! just a short 10-15 minutes to the airport without traffic. The morning buffet breakfast was one of the best I’ve had and i typically stay at 5star resorts worldwide. The pool and grounds are wonderful and beautifully maintained. I’ve stayed here 4 times in the last year and I will stay here every time I visit San Jose, Costa Rica. Superb!!!
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.
Some of the comfiest beds I've stayed in during my travels have been at Selina including in dorms too. There was also secure storage both by the bed and in a separate locker in the room. The shower had excellent pressure and was refreshingly hot. The Selina San Jose is within easy walking distance of downtown attractions. Staff answered questions and was helpful.
This is my 2nd time staying at Oasis. I love it's proximity to the Tracopa Station and Downtown.
If you are traveling in Costa Rica and use the best bus (with air conditioning), then there is no reason to stay anywhere else.
I cannot than you enough Mari for providing me a wonderful space in which to relax on a rooftop in San Jose. 🤙🏽
This hotel was our first stop in Costa Rica. It's a little gem on the outskirts on San Jose, perfect to start your Costa Rican trip. The rooms are spacious and clean, breakfast is served by the cutest lady. We didn't use the pool but that's were breakfast is served and they view was great!
Great hotel in a really central location in the middle of San Jose. We stayed here for x2 nights before moving on to other places in Costa Rica. The hotel is incredibly well kept, decor is modern and breakfast was fab! With it's central location it was super easy to explore San Jose.
Nice location in one of the prettiest neighborhoods in San Jose, within easy walking distance of the downtown area, the Teatro Nacional and the other sites to see. The rooms were clean enough and the breakfast area was pretty neat, with lots of plants growing indoors.
I stayed here several times when traveling in Costa Rica. The staff is friendly and helpful, the place is clean and has nice common areas. It is close to restaurants/cafes/supermarket.
I recommend it when being in San Jose.
Good location for proximity to both downtown San Jose and the airport. Good breakdfast with several options. The pool and the pool area a nice escape from the city.
