We logeerden met het gezin 1 nacht in dit hotel, na aankomst in Costa Rica en alvorens aan onze rondreis te beginnen. De receptie/lobby is erg gezellig, en het sfeervol verlichte zwembad geeft een mooie eerste indruk van het hotel. De kamers waarin wij logeerden waren proper en netjes, de bedden comfortabel. Ze deden alleen een beetje kil aan qua sfeer. Ook de geluidsisolatie naar buiten toe was niet top. Ondanks het feit dat de ramen gesloten waren, leek het alsof deze open stonden. Het personeel in dit hotel was erg vriendelijk. De ontvangst was vlot en aangenaam, en aangezien we erg vroeg moesten vertrekken kregen we spontaan een take-away ontbijt aangeboden. Conclusie: voor ons was dit een goed hotel om een nachtje door te brengen op doorreis.

Erg vriendelijke medewerkers. Goed restaurant met heerlijk eten. Ook fijn dat er een zwembad bij is. Cesar heeft ons uitstekend bediend en is erg servicegericht. Net als de dame die voor een heerlijk ontbijt zorgde. Kortom wij zijn erg tevreden en bevelen dit hotel zeker aan. Groeten van de amigo’s the Netherlands

This was a fantastic hotel for a large group! The hotel allowed us to arrange room assignments for our own students as requested, dinner was easy to coordinate (with dietary restrictions always being taken seriously), and they put us all in the same hall so it was easy to keep track of our students. When requested, they gave us a meeting room. We did have an incident where one of the employees assumed that two of our students who were using large swim shirts were not wearing swimsuits and swimming in the pool with regular clothing. Though attempting to do their job diligently, they jumped to a conclusion without properly gathering information. Later on, this situation was addressed appropriately by hotel staff and they honored the swimwear choices of our students who did not feel comfortable wearing “traditional” swimwear in the pool. Overall, fantastic hotel experience!

El lugar es tranquilo, cerca de san José y excelente servicio al cliente. Además el restaurante es delicioso recomiendo el Tiramisu un postre espectacular, además de que la atención es única muy especial. Lo único negativo fue la cama que parecía 2 individuales juntas, sin embargo eran muy cómodas

At this hotel you will find basic, rustic rooms that are very clean. Don't expect bathroom amenities or kleenex. You will find clean percale sheets, comfy mattress, tv with CNN in English, poor lighting and 2 bottles of tap water. YOU CAN DRINK THE WATER IN COSTA RICA. Breakfast is decent buffet. See separate review of Mastico Restaurant in hotel. Also, hot water and excellent water pressure in shower.

Very comfortable hotel located within walking distance to the stadium and the park. The rooms are small, but very comfortable. The staff is quite helpful. There's a buffet breakfast in the morning and restaurant service throughout the day.

This was a great hotel with super friendly and helpful staff, great food and spacious rooms/suites. Both adults and both teenagers enjoyed our time at Hotel Autentico. We especially liked the happy hour (adults) and breakfast buffet (teenagers)!
