Very good Restaurant, the room was ok, the location of the hotel was not safe at night and I did not received an upgrade or a bottle of wine as it was stated in my reservation for a VIP expedia customer.
Stunning property with incredible rooms and an amazing restaurant. Staff is very friendly and accommodating too. By far the best place to stay in San Jose!
This was a very nice hotel that is in an OK part of town. The hotel itself is amazing, the restaurant is very good. I stayed for a couple of nights because it was close to the airport. I would stay here again.
We had a 2 night trip in San Jose after “roughing it” for 2 weeks all over Costa Rica. We splurged on this place so we could get some good rest and we did! Also really liked the hot tub. We did not eat in the restaurant (very pricy) but found a wonderful cafe around the corner for breakfast. Would go back.
The food at the hotel was excellent. The service level was very good, attentive, efficient and professional. The front desk took every opportunity to make us feel welcome.
