Carmen

"My preferred place to stay in San Jose (have probably stayed here at least 20 times, and I have stayed at many places in town so I have a fair idea of what's "normal" here even for the high-end hotels). Large and clean rooms, great location and staff. Only downside is there is no restaurant/bar in the hotel, rather in the separate casino which is a bit sleazy for my tastes. But there are decent restaurants within a short walk."

Recent Reviews in Cinco Esquinas

Fairfield by Marriott San Jose Airport Alajuela

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed one night to be close to the airport. The room was very clean with all the amenities we needed. Coffee maker and mini fridge in the room. Great air conditioning. Nice big bathroom with really thick towels and shampoo, conditioner and shower gel provided. The morning breakfast and coffee was really good. Had fresh pineapple and watermelon, good coffee, mini pancakes, beef birria. Free transportation to the airport. Staff all very friendly."

Gran Hotel Costa Rica, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at Hilton Curio in Costa Rica! The staff made us feel welcome and went out of their way to be helpful. A special thank-you to Daniel and Luis, the restaurant team, our bartender, and the front desk staff for their kindness and attentive service. Their hospitality made our visit even more enjoyable, and we’d be happy to stay here again."

Barceló San José

8/10 Good

"The resort/hotel is well kept. The staff are so helpful and accommodating. One thing that was a plus to myself and my husband was the rental property they have on the premises."

Costa Rica Marriott Hotel Hacienda Belen

10/10 Excellent

"The Property is in a fantastic location in the great community Belen. It is close to the city but still far enough away to feel like the country. The People are the most amazing part of this property. Love the kindness and generous nature to help. Great Job Marriot Hacienda!"

Holiday Inn Express San Jose Costa Rica Airport by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room and comfortable beds. Wifi was a little spotty. Pool was relaxing. Breakfast had a lot of options and the gentleman who ran the kitchen made my friend a really cool banana Dolphin with strawberries and fresh honey. So cool! Convenient location to the car return but not much else in an easily walkable area other than the casino next door. The shuttle for dining options was nice though. Quick shuttle to the airport was fantastic as well."

Hampton by Hilton San Jose Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Only challenge was few restaurants nearby."
