Didn’t really hear many good things about the city but gave it a try. Nice parks and interesting history. I took a free walking tour and learned some things about San José I really enjoyed. Really nice and helpful people. There are quite a few homeless people and beggars.
Taxi drivers are scam artists. Stay within areas of the city with lots of police presence. Get a bus from the airport directly to Jaco or Manual Antonio. These are very nice towns. Spend as little time as possible in San Jose.
I enjoyed renting a car and driving trough the cities. I wanted to visit this Costa Rica for peace. The main saying Pura Vida means pure life. The people here live by that standard. It's amazing! The waterfalls near La Clandestina (restaurant) Paquera & hot springs in Orosi such beauties!!
San Jose was last 1.5 day stay in our 8 night trip in Costa Rica. So we just relaxed after volcanoes, waterfalls & beaches. San Jose is not a place for diving if you do not like spending hours in traffic.
San Jose is cool for a day or two but truly, I wish I would have stayed in Uvita or Dominical. There is just so much more natural beauty there and things to do. So while the people in San Jose are fantastic, the vacation spot is definitely the more beachy, touristy areas.
The people were very pleasant. They weren’t begging for tips. Just be mindful that the beach is about a 2 hour drive from San Jose. I’d recommend staying beachside for a night and booking a hotel best to the airport for the remainder of
I did not know that this was a hostel when I booked it for my family. We were worried but we couldn’t have been happier. This is a beautifully decorated and comfortable home! They even had a PlayStation which my kids went crazy for. There is a garage where we were able to park our car. It’s in a foodie neighborhood with tons of hip restaurants but you can take a long walk to downtown San Jose and the Mercado. We were told San Jose was a dump but we were pleasantly surprised with the art and culture.
Well located in the middle of what appeared to be the main busy street in San José. Decent sized rooms which despite being dated were also very clean. Beds were comfortable too. Breakfast was good, we had gallo pinto (eggs, rice and beans, plantain) everywhere in Costa Rica and this was one of the tastiest. If that doesn't excite you they had other items on offer too for an extra cost. The breakfast staff were very helpful in dealing with our dietary requirements!
The staff were amazing and the most helpful I have had helping me plan multiple day trips from San Jose. They even packaged me a breakfast to go on the days I was leaving early. The price for what you get is a bargain especially comparing to other places I have stayed in Costa Rica. The breakfast was lovely and substantial and there is plenty of social space. The first properly hot showers I have been to which was a luxury before I headed back from my month long trip.
Beautiful facility with interesting modern art. Room was well-appointed, modern, and comfortable! A great value...was half the price of other hotels! Manager allowed us to leave our car in secure lot after checkout so we could explore downtown museums on foot. Pura vida y muchas gracias! Breakfast was delicious and varied with something for everyone.
Both restaurants make great food. The place has a pool, jacuzzi and a small cardio gym area. The staff is amazing. Rooms are clean. If you leave the hotel and make a left and then another left at the intersection and walk straight you will be inside San Jose downtown in less than 10 min walk. Greet place. I loved my stuff and will be back soon
The Barceló es a wonderful surprise. It is close to downtown San Jose and to our dentist's office while the grounds seem to be in the middle of the rainforest. The room was clean, comfortable and roomy. The food was very good with an amazing choice of breakfast food. And the airport shuttle was efficient. We couldn't ask for more.
This hotel was perfect for us after landing in San Jose, leaving 3 days later to Tamarindo. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful and the breakfast was amazing! Rooms are exceptionally clean with a handy fridge for your water. The pool area is the highlight of the hotel with great views. We couldn't have asked for more!
Reasonably close to bus stations, 24 hour reception and staff who speak English. I have stayed here a few times now and it the perfect place to stay if you are just in San Jose to catch buses to other Costa Rican destinations. Secure lockers, a power socket for each bed and modern bathrooms.
Perfect when arriving to or departing from Costa Rica. Near airport and car rentals. They offer shuttle service from/to the airport for 20 usd for a group of 4 people. 20 min. by local bus to downtown. Very friendly staff, clean rooms and delicious breakfast
Great hostel. Very close to la Fortuna bus stop and also to the downtown. Very knowledgeable staff helps you planning your travels in Costa Rica. Clean and useful amenities, simple breakfast included. Great for a night in San Jose before moving your destination.
Adorable facilities with great staff who made great recommendations about the area. The breakfast was delicious and the breakfast area had trees and plants and felt like a taste of Costa Rica jungle despite being only a 10 minute walk from downtown San José.
Great location for exploring San Jose. The dorms are clean and comfortable, although the room doors can't be locked (they sell locks for use of lockers). Staff were very helpful in providing directions to supermarkets and the downtown area.
The hotel was a gem in the centre of San Jose. It is a boutique hotel and it’s very arty and interesting. The staff are friendly and the property is clean. There is a lovely outside area on floor 4, with great views of the city.
Beautiful boutique style hotel on edge of bustling downtown San Jose. Complimentary shuttle pick up at 9pm, and greeted by friendly and sweet staff at hotel. Rooms exceptionally clean and comfortable, yet simple.
Stay here regularly while in san jose. Staff are pleasant and knowledgeable. Chilean restaurant close by is very good. Is a quiet area on the weekends and a 10 minute walk to downtown center
Very lovely hotel, not too far away from the pedestrian areas. Very charming with its inner courtyard full of plants and flowers. Very friendly staff, all in all: perfect choice for San Jose.
Perfect location for downtown San Jose. Nice staff, good breakfast, fast Wi-Fi and hot water showers. Lots of good places to eat nearby. Entire place kept very clean.
The location as very central to the Sabana park and very safe. It seemed upscale and the downtown area is not too far from the hotel. Food was pretty good.
Well equiped rooms and a very fair price for this location! Also one of the best cleaned rooms we had in Costa Rica. Price-Quality a topper in San José.
Great location in downtown San Jose
