Hotels With Wi-Fi in San Jose, Costa Rica

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.

The city view was the best part, we got picked up from the hotel for a day tour. Tour guide said we’re in the new buildings area but it’s still unsafe at night so don’t go walking around, but the hotel itself was five to ten minutes from everything else, in the day we did walk around and felt safe, the park is right next to it which was nice to see and of course the stadium, cleanliness and guest services were great accommodating, we had our anniversary dinner at their restaurant and it had great views but service was slow and food was only okay, could’ve/should’ve eaten somewhere else, the best part was the pool on the highest floor, the top four floors were apartments, but the pool is on the highest of their floor, the jacuzzi wasn’t warmed and they warmed us that it wasn’t, but the pool itself was nice to swim in, stayed there for a little over an hour before going to dinner, would definitely go book again

Thanks to Trip.com staff for coordinating the check-in time and adjusting the quiet room in time. The front desk staff of the hotel has a young lady's professionalism and is better to find the staff to connect to Wi-Fi in time.

Place is about half an hour taxi ride from the airport. We originally booked it since the listing here said check in was 1400, but were later emailed that check-in was actually 1500 and when we arrived at 1500, the host said they aren't finished cleaning it and we had to wait in the lobby. The room was nice, although we didn't find the bathroom to be entirely clean. Included breakfast only consisted of coffee, fruit bowl and toast with jams.

We felt that for an upscale hostel, this place was on a whole, a great experience. My only suggestion is that the rooms need more ventilation. Our 4 person dorm room had a tiny window blocked by the beds. Putting a vent fan in the window would solve this issue. Otherwise, for what it is we loved our 2-night stay here. This was at the end of our 3 week trip and had been to many towns and places across the country, I'd say we met the most friends here and had the best time. The cafe could use more larger/common tables but we were able to meet people easily regardless. They have activities and events to encourage interaction as well as a bar and pizza oven. While these amenities are overpriced, they were convenient and similar to other hotel restaurants/cafes. We didn't feel the staff was pushy at all and if we just wanted to hang out in the cafe we weren't bothered and didn't feel forced to buy something. (and probably because of this, we usually did buy food or drinks) The location was good enough - we could walk to the central market / pedestrian mall in 10 minutes. It's walkable (during daytime) from the 7-10 bus station and the Tuasa bus to the airport. The co-working space we felt was a good value, and fantastic. High powered wifi can support video meetings and it's just across the street. Also somewhat social and a good environment to work. The staff and regular patrons were amazing and we felt that we had new friends as soon as we arrived. The place had a warm feeling that I can't quite describe, created by both the staff and the guests. We didn't want to leave.

I’ve stayed in some pretty low end places and this is one of the worst. Our room had no windows. I’ve never heard of such a thing for a hotel. One of the elevators was broken, we were given half a roll of toilet paper, the carpet was dirty, and there was zero hot water. Yes, this place is conveniently located and sure, it was quiet, but it’s a total rip off. Coffee downstairs in the morning was $9 USD. Our key stopped working and we had to get it reprogrammed. I’ve stayed in better hostels.

The landlord’s wife was very kind and helpful, she helped me arrange my trip to Costa Rica, and I thank her very much. My trip in Costa Rica was very enjoyable. There is a local restaurant next to this hotel. It is very delicious. After I return to China, I will try to make those three dishes. One is red bean rice, one is yak beef, and the other is pepper side dishes. They are all very delicious. Especially suitable for fat reduction fitness meal

Big hotel near the main historic downtown area, just a few minutes walk from several major public museums and art galleries, and many options nearby for casual and upscale bars and restaurants. Our king-bed studio was on the 12th floor, with a great view of the city and the mountains beyond. Breakfast was a typical hotel buffet, and plentiful with something for everyone. Check-in was very smooth. We looked in on the 3rd floor pool but didn’t take time to try it out. One thing missing was an in-room guide to hotel amenities and services, so we had to keep calling or dropping by the front desk. They were helpful, but it would save everyone time if there was an in-room booklet.

This hotel has potential, and location is good if this is the area you need to be. Lots of restaurants nearby, and beside the main road. However, staff needs some training on Customer Service. Some staff are wonderful to be clear, but some have basic training issue. The front desk requires service training on handling guests. Examples: talking to another guest for 5-8 mins only to revert back to me and telling me no receipt because system is down; you could have told me immediately instead of letting me wait. I called up for my laundry, was advised they will check and return my call- after 20 mins, no call, and I have to call again only to be told that I need to go down to pick it up since I have to pay first at the reception (my bill was paid already in advance by my colleague), but hey, am not escaping, you have a copy of my credit card, and my check out is still the ff day. I can follow process, but the reception could have said it in a nicer way- am a paying guest in a Hilton brand, not some hostel paying 20$ a night.

The hotel is beautiful, the staff is very friendly and gentle. It is located 20 minutes from the airport and precise for what I needed. The breakfast is delicious, and the price is good since in Costa Rica everything is very expensive.

I’ve stayed in a ton of low-budget hotels and hostels, but this is the first time I’ve ever just swallowed the money that I pre-paid for a place and left for a different hotel. I know you get what you pay for - in this case a really basic room with one tiny bedside lamp in a seedy part of town, and we were ok with that, but the room just reeked. After opening the windows and it not getting any better, I went back downstairs and quietly asked if we could see another room if one was available. The desk guy had a long conversation with the manager in the office behind, took another key and followed me back to the room to check. “It could just be the cleaning product we use in all the bathrooms” he said. “I’m pretty sure it’s more than that - it’s really bad” I said. “You can feel it burning in your throat”. “I’m sorry, the manager told me you could not see another room”, he replied, and left still holding the key to a different room in his hand. My friend then went to check out the shared bathrooms on the floor. “They smell fine” he said. So I booked a room in another place nearby (Fleur de Lys - a bit more expensive but clean, comfortable, with a super friendly front desk). As we were waiting with our bags back down to the lobby, the desk guy eventually appears again, with a reluctant “You don’t have to go, I will show you the other room.” Ugh. Finally, you have to be both buzzed into the place and buzzed out, and if the front desk guy is off doing something else, be prepared to wait. And wait... Pretty sad place.

The room was big, clean, quiet, and the breakfast was great!

The hotel was clean and comfortable with great food and good service. We were there for 3 nights at the beginning of our trip and 1 night at the end. The staff accommodated our early check in on our last stay, which we very much appreciated. We also had relatives visit us in the lobby and they were very accommodating with moving the furniture around for us to be comfortable. There was a lot of variety for breakfast! We would definitely stay again, if in Costa Rica.

Everything was great. Breakfast was a different dish each day, with fantastic outdoor seating. Additionally, the pool was very nice and housekeeping was frequent. Overall it was a great experience and the staff are fantastic. I will definitely use this hotel again in the future.
