Holiday Inn Express San Jose Costa Rica Airport by IHG
10/10 Excellent
"I recently stayed at the Holiday Inn Express by SJO in Costa Rica and had such a wonderful experience. The beds were unbelievably comfortable — truly some of the best I’ve ever slept on. While the rooms are a bit small, they’re spotless and thoughtfully laid out. The pool is absolutely gorgeous and perfect for a refreshing break in the sun.
The true highlight, though, was the breakfast experience — and I say “experience” because it was so much more than just a meal. Raul, the chef, came out to greet each guest with a huge smile and made everyone feel so welcome. The fruit selection included exotic options we weren’t familiar with, and Raul came over to show us how to eat them, turning it into a fun, interactive moment. He even made a banana sculpture that looked like a dolphin — such a sweet and unexpected touch! And the fresh coconut water? What a treat!
This level of hospitality is rare and really elevated our stay. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Costa Rica. It’s clean, comfortable, and filled with heart."
"Hotel Mango – Convenient & Relaxing Stay Near SJO Airport
I stayed at Hotel Mango before an early flight out of SJO, and it was the perfect choice. The location is incredibly convenient for the airport, which made my travel stress-free. The ambiance around the pool and the restaurant was lovely—relaxed, inviting, and a nice little oasis before heading out. I truly enjoyed my stay and would recommend it to anyone looking for comfort and convenience near the airport."
