Good place
Really nice place, rooms are small but you can go reading or discuss in the many places in the hôtel (cozy places) or on the little common terrasse. Clean place. Easy to walk from the hôtel to many places in the center of San José.

The staff is excellent! Great location to the downtown museums and Theater.
The train runs behind the building during the day, but I didn't hear any at night.

The hotel is beautiful. Lovingly restored w beautiful art. The staff was friendly, helpful and very responsive. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful; our room came w an upgrade which was unexpected and much appreciated. The only downside for us was the considerable train noise as the tracks run just behind the hotel; sleeping was difficult for only that reason.

The property is in a good location as it is walking distance to the National Museum, National Park, Plaza De La Cultura and other points of interest in San Jose.
However, the facility is too close to the train track. As a result the noise level is too loud and train runs early in the morning affecting ability to sleep in a bit.

I did like the central Location and the General look. The staff at the recepcion was very nice. I did not like at all that there were many Tourist groups which were very loud also during the Night. I missed roules from the hotel for that issue.

Was a beautiful place old and dated but loved that but our toilet didnt work properly even though we did not put toilet paper down. We were on the third floor and was quite the trek with 2 heavy pieces of luggage as there is no elevator. Staff was friendly but the area is sketchy.

Good stay
The place was clean and nice. Our room did not have AC but had a ceiling fan, and that was enough. Breakfast is small but good.

Beautiful hotel with simple, comfortable rooms.
A beautiful hotel! The rooms aren’t anything fancy, but are comfortable and great for a short stay. There are plenty of communal areas to sit I. The rest of the hotel outside the room, and it is quite lovely out there. Nice breakfast with indoor and outdoor seating. I showed up a day early and they quickly changed the reservation and got us into a room. I would absolutely stay here again.

Lovely property, centrally located, only a few minutes walk from the Plaza de la Cultura.
Tasty breakfast.
Right by the train tracks & the trains started at 5am then frequently thereafter, so be aware of this if you are a light sleeper.

Noisy
This was my second stay at Fleur De Lys, but I don't remember the first time being as noisy as this stay. The daily trains blew their horns every time they passed by the hotel. This made it hard to get a good night's sleep.
Also, our room was next to the stairwell, and we heard constant walking throughout the night. This will be our last stay here, but the on good thing is that it was close to Central Avenue.
