DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Cariari San Jose - Costa Rica
4.1/5111 Reviews
This hotel rocks! We stayed here the first night of our trip, and were welcomed by the kind staff and some of the FRESHEST and WARMEST TASTIEST free cookies upon check in. By the end of our stay one of our relatives literally hoarded the cookies, asking for 4-5 per day. The pool was very pretty, and the breakfast was so fancy, aesthetic and tasty! The rooms were nice and cool, very clean, and had a great selection of TV channels. On the last night of our trip, we had initially pre-planned to stay at this one hotel in the forrest, but our party decided to leave because of a number of concerning observations. We were all exhausted as it was the end of our trip, and needed somewhere to stay. Immediately everyone started chanting that they wanted to go back to the DoubleTree. We arrived and everyone sighed a relief, and we went to our warm beds with our cookies!
Radisson San Jose Costa Rica
4.3/544 Reviews
We stayed for one night after arriving in San Jose. We got a taxi from the airport, which took about half an hour to get to the hotel. The hotel is really big and spacious, the rooms were comfortable, and we particularly enjoyed the lovely pool area outside where we could relax with drinks from the bar.
Irazú Hotel & Studios
3.9/5104 Reviews
this hotel is very confusing to locate. there is no sign except for a banner on a fence. this hotel is attached to a Holiday inn which makes it more confusing. they literally share a courtyard and the buildings are attached. when you pull in there is nothing directing you to a lobby, no signs, luckily an employee was standing outside and they explained where to go. we have a large group of 22 and a total of 6 rooms reserved. originally we are told the 6 people checking in for each room need their passports, then he changes his mind and decides everyone needs to show their passports which i have never done before in any hotel in Costa Rica out of all the trips and hotels we stayed at. they take all our passports and write down all the names and passport numbers for all 22 guests which i was very uncomfortable with. we were flying out very early in the morning so we had no choice. There were 3 people working the front desk at some point a 4th guy showed up, 2 of the clerks were friendly but the main guy was condescending and rude! we finally get our keys, only 1 room was given the complimentary bottle of wine. the rooms were dirty, dark, and smelled awful, a mix of paint, mold, and chemicals. the rooms look nothing like the pictures advertised, im sure many years ago they did but now theyre dirty and outdated. our balcony door did not close, it was held open by the chain lock but the door knob would not latch so the door remained slightly open. bugs were flying in so my husband rigged the door to keep it closed, not locked just closed enough to keep bugs out. we went downstairs to pick up some dinner leaving our 17 year old taking a shower. we had requested towels since there was only 2 and 4 of us, i guess they decided to let themselves in while we were out, my son heard the door and assumed it was us returning until several minutes later someone knocked on the bathroom door! they started speaking to my son in spanish which he does not speak, he was totally freaked out! why would you stay in the room if you heard the shower on?! then he doesnt even leave! my son said it was several minutes later that he finally left the room!! what the hell was he doing in our room for so long?!!! My sister was given someone else's room and when she went down to let them know the room was locked they insisted she wasnt using the key card correctly so they walked her back up, tried the card but the door was locked with the safety pin so it only opened slightly, the guy then tried pushing the door open with his body when a gentleman appears inside startled from being woken up to someone trying to break into his room! my sister was embarrassed, explained what happened and apologized. HOW DOES A FRONT DESK NOT KNOW WHAT ROOMS THEY HAVE ALREADY FILLED?!?! completely unacceptable! DO NOT STAY HERE!!! there are so many options nearby find anywhere else to stay.

Hotel Residence Inn Suites Cristina
4.3/5102 Reviews
Our family had a 2 bed 1 bath apartment style unit, and it was a great amount of space. We were there for about a week and felt very homey. The breakfast every morning was absolutely fantastic, and the freshly made omelettes were delicious. Its location is fantastic as a lot of tour companies can pick up from there and a lot of fast food options nearby. The park nearby is very active, and the National soccer stadium is very close by, too. The staff is absolutely wonderful as well Sergio was amazing, as I had left something very dear to me behind on my last day, and he assured me that it would be reached back home to me and followed through with his promise. Tamara was an amazing help as well. She helped me book a couple of tours and recommended gorgeous sites to see! Overall 100/10 experience at Suites Cristina and I will definitely be staying there next time.
