    We decided to stay our last night in San Jose before heading home to avoid traveling through the county on our last day. When we checked in, we found... out they gave us an upgrade, which was nice. Their service was impeccable, and the private garden was a nice touch. This place is excellent and was a nice finishing touch to a nice Costa Rica trip. They even supplied us with aspirin and salt to use as a successful experiment to rub as a paste on our severely itchy bug bites. by Greg  from USA on 06/06/13

    A short guide to San Jose

    Situated in the heart of the Central Valley, San Jose is Costa Rica’s capital city and home to one-third of the country’s inhabitants. Although much of the city’s architecture has given way to urban sprawl, there are still many attractions to see, including the world-famous Jade Museum and the National Theater. San Jose also has a bustling central market, and numerous nightclubs and casinos.

The staff exceeded our expectations and went well over and above to assist us. The Restaurant is five star with excellent choices. We liked it so well, when we passed back through San Jose we stopped again to eat. We […] highly recommend this hotel over and above others!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Read more

    This is a very nice small boutique hotel that's a renovated plantation house. The hotel has been upgraded and while the room are small they are well appointed and maintained. Our room has an attached patio atrium with water feature and tropical plants. That feature brought a lot of natural light into our room and provided us a nice place to take morning […] coffee. I would recommend this hotel to friends. Read more

    This was a completely unexpected pleasure to end a week long stay in the jungle near uvita. The restaurant was as good as anything in New York or New Orleans, and our entire group was extremely happy. Beautiful room, clever idea for a hotel, great service, and still laid back- pura vida!!!

    This place is beautiful and the staff was amazing. We had room 1 and it was quaint and sweet and lovely and clean and comfortable and refreshing. The restaurant was gorgeous and the service and food was devine. We brought our own bottle and there was not corkage becuase we were staying at the hotel. Buy wine at duty free, check in to your great room […] and enjoy a nice meal with your wine. I wish this hotel was closer so I could just go occasionally to enjoy it. Read more

    Nice stay - the hotel was quiet & not too many guests, as we were just inside the rainy season I guess. We had a courtyard view which was really serene & there was a beautiful choir singing in a bldg. adjacent that we could not see but hear. It wasn't loud but so beautiful it made us want to go find them and listen. Hotel staff was quite accomodating! […] Restaurant prices very high here & throughout our CR vacation, but food here was pretty good overall. Read more
