Top San José Hotel Reviews

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, San Jose Aeropuerto, Costa Rica

10/10 Excellent

"Great property. Staff was friendly and quite helpful. I was in awe with my accommodations. Lovely place"

Barceló San José

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel! Lots of food options, clean and comfortable rooms, friendly staff and a good value. Feels more international and Costa Rican than other big brands. We enjoyed Barcelo very much. Nice pool with poolside restaurant and bar. Beautiful setting. My wife and I stayed on both the front end and back end of our trip to Costa Rica. We will stay again on our next trip to San Jose."

Courtyard by Marriott San Jose Airport Alajuela

10/10 Excellent

"We needed a pre-flight stay near the airport and chose the Courtyard by Marriott for its proximity to the airport. We had an excellent dinner in the restaurant before heading back to our room for an early bedtime. The beds were so comfortable, and we were able to block out the lights and noise from the airport and highway outside. Our flight was at 6AM so we took advantage of the free shuttle to the airport. Shuttle starts at 4AM, it was on time and gave us plenty of time to check in and wait for our flight."

Fairfield by Marriott San Jose Airport Alajuela

10/10 Excellent

"The staff at this hotel are absolute stars. When I had an issue with my reservatio that it was my mistakes, they resolved it quickly and efficiently.They were professional, kind, and went out of their way to make sure my stay was comfortable. I especially appreciated how safe and welcome they made me feel during my time here. Thank you to the whole team for turning my stay around!"
