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 - 10.0

I was there for a seminar so did not have time for sightseeing. I rented a car for easy transport. Enjoyed close by restaurants for dinner in the evenings. I don’t remember the names of the restaurants but they were suggested by the concierge and fellow participants of the seminar I attendedGuest review byMatalonPanama - 6.0

Honestly, most visitors visit Costa Rica for the beaches, surf, and volcano/jungle excursion. We have done that also. But out visits within San Jose is for it's economical and exceptional quality of Dental. We use the best, Flikier Dental Institute in Nunciatura. The staff really care about each customer as an individual. The facility uses the most modern technology and equipment in the world. Dr. Flikier is the best of the best. At less than a quarter of the cost of a US dentist with superior results and customer service.Guest review byPaulUnited States - 6.0
One day in San Jose is enough.
One day in San Jose is enough. The gold museum is heavily overrated, and there are not many spectacular places to see in San Jose. When visitinf Costa Rica best is to minimize the time spent in San Jose, and spend more time in the countryside.Guest review byStephanFrance - 10.0

- From $84.46 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.4Very Good - What previous guests thought, 1,189 reviewsHotel Aranjuez is located in a very nice area, some 15mins (safe) walking distance north of Plaza de Democracia. It has a jungle like garden in the backyard with flying birds and squirrels running around. Breakfast is also served there (the best we had in 3 weeks in Costa Rica) so you can already experience some "wild life" while being in the capital city. Rooms were very clean and quite spacious. Staff was really nice and helpfull.Guest review byKarstenGermany
