Hilton San Jose La Sabana

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms are super spacious, in excellent condition, and the cleanliness is the best I’ve ever seen. The amenities are great. One area for improvement is the restaurant service; some of the staff don’t always seem to be in the best mood. The restaurant is on the smaller side, but the food is delicious. There is free parking available, and the views are stunning."

Delta Hotels by Marriott San Jose Aurola

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was amazing at check in. I arrived very early and they did their best to accommodate me. Also, the bar manager was very personable. All around great stay as it is close to museums and parks."

Rancho Rio Perlas Resort & Spa

8/10 Good

"★★★★☆ A beautiful and relaxing stay with a few disappointments We really enjoyed our stay at Rancho Río Perlas. The property is beautiful, peaceful, and full of charm. The gardens were lovely and well maintained, especially considering the rainy season. The pools were a highlight — particularly the hot pool, which was clean, relaxing, and enjoyable. Our room was excellent: spacious, comfortable, and a lovely place to stay. There were a few areas where our expectations did not match the experience. From the website, we expected a restaurant, pool bars, and more extensive spa facilities. Although these areas exist and look attractive, the restaurant and bars were not operating during our stay, meaning we had to leave the property for lunch, dinner, drinks, and snacks. The spa appeared to be limited mainly to massages booked in advance. The WiFi worked well around the grounds but was unreliable inside our room. Breakfast was somewhat disappointing for a place presented as a spa and wellness destination. The Gallo Pinto was very good, but options such as store-bought muffins and bottled juice did not reflect the healthy image promoted online. The breakfast service could also have felt warmer and more welcoming. Overall, Rancho Río Perlas is a beautiful property with great potential. We enjoyed our visit and would recommend it, but clearer communication about available services and some improvements to the food and hospitality would make it an exceptional experience."
