1. Sleep Inn Hotel Paseo Las Damas

1.9 km from El Ciprés

"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."

Top El Ciprés Hotel Reviews

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, San Jose Aeropuerto, Costa Rica

8/10 Good

"El pasado Viernes 9 después del terremoto en Panama, mi vuelo fue cancelado, era tarde en la noche y logre conseguir una habitación en el Country Innsuites by Radison, la joven Katherine de Recepción, fue super amable y asertiva al brindarme apoyo, para que me trasladaran del aeropuerto al hotel, siempre estuvo pendiente de mi. Gracias..."

AC Hotel San Jose Airport Belen

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic choice for your first night in Costa Rica, or the final night before a flight home. Two recommendations, book the breakfast, you won’t be disappointed, and book the shuttle from the airport to the hotel and avoid having to pay a ridiculously high price for a taxi. Third time staying at AC Belan, and I will stay again."

Gran Hotel Costa Rica, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful room with friendly and wonderful staff. The restaurant in the hotel was pricey but the food was amazing. Location is in a busy area but there’s lots to do all in walking distance. Also There’s nowhere to park, you can only do valet which is just a one-time payment of $28 for your whole stay."
