We spent the first and last night of our trip to Costa Rica in San José, but in retrospect, that was one night too many. Due to the traffic chaos, it simply takes too long to get to the hotels in San José, so you lose the desire to really explore the city.Guest review byRobertGermany - 6.0

San Jose is a patchwork of beautiful sites amidst a chaotic mess of traffic-riddled highways. We didn't really stay long enough to give it an accurate review, but our short stay was not encouraging. We spent most of our time in Costa Rica on the Pacific Coast, which was quite pleasant.Guest review byJoshuaUnited States - 8.0

In general the city hasn't much to it - the best part is getting out on tours to see some nature! Traffic is also terrible at peak times, sometimes tripling the time is takes to get somewhere. Overall I had an enjoyable experience, but was reliant on tours, organised activities, extensive research on restaurants and Uber to get around.Guest review byKarenIreland - 4.0

As much as we like the hotel we we're impressed with the city It was dirty, sad and unpleasant city while la fortuna is exact opposite I hope they work in San Jose and improve the city. It really could attack people if this city will clean up with some good parks and development Good luckGuest review byAnonymous - 8.0
There is much to do and see here…very spread out.
There is much to do and see here…very spread out. Might be wise budget-wise if longer stay to rent a car. Otherwise Uber is great here! The Green Arc Foundation, the art museum, walking tours, local food—Soda—, La Chimba, Sunday farmer markets, and refreshing climate are all so enjoyable!Guest review byKimberlieUnited States - 4.0

The most significant disadvantages of San Jose are the traffic--which is truly some of the worst one can imagine--and the overall lack of safe, public commons. The lack of public commons is a common issue to most of the country but seems worse in San Jose as nearly all property is behind bars and razor wire. There are some close by attractions for tourists so it can be a good base for a stay.Guest review byDouglas GilbertUnited States

- From $103.95 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.4Very Good - What previous guests thought, 2,585 reviewsAfter hiking for weeks it was lovely to stay here in comfort. The hotel is good to use with breakfast and free airport shuttle service. The staff are attentive and helpful even the Security guard tried to help me get my shoes dry before my flight. The hotel has a great view of San Jose. The breakfast is delicious with a choice of Costa Rican cuisine and continental.Guest review byPillayCajonMalaysia
- From $114.86 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.3Very Good - What previous guests thought, 763 reviewsCharming 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!Guest review byMatoušCzech Republic
- Scored out of 10, guest rating 8.8Excellent - What previous guests thought, 644 reviewsWe had the best breakfast of our entire Costa Rica tour at this accommodation. The short distance to the airport is also important given the traffic chaos in San José, and we were able to park our car in the hotel's own garage. Compared to other accommodations, the price is relativly low.Guest review byRobertGermany
