3. City Express by Marriott San Jose Costa Rica

Ulloa

"Solid, well-located hotel that did exactly what we needed. We used it as a base for four nights while doing trips out of the GAM, and the location next to Real Cariari made everything easy, including a 2am tour pickup and quick access to the airport. Rooms were clean and comfortable, staff were helpful at every hour, and check in and check out were straightforward. Good value if you want something practical and well connected rather than a resort. Would stay again."

Carmen

"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 San Josecito Hotel Reviews

Barceló San José

10/10 Excellent

"Our room was perfectly clean & this hotel is gorgeous! Best pool in a superb, well-established garden! We would love to come back & stay longer."

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

10/10 Excellent

"El personal muy diligente, el País no me estaba gustando y buscaron alternativas para que pudiera gozar de ello. Eso si, deberían tener la noche del turista y realizar una fiesta en la piscina."

Radisson San Jose-Costa Rica

8/10 Good

"Incredibly clean property. Our room was spotless! Loved the spacious room, especially the walk-in shower. Good variety of food at buffet breakfast. Unfortunately, due to work being performed, the electricity was cut off for hours 2 days in a row This affected hot water, including the pool, which we couldn't relax in after a day of sight-seeing. In all fairness, we were guests during the rainy season, not high season."

Fairfield by Marriott San Jose Airport Alajuela

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was nice and clean and super convenient to the airport. The whole staff was very friendly, but we especially enjoyed conversing with Fernando. My wife and I had a wonderful dinner in the restaurant, and Fernando was our waiter. He was very friendly and made us feel right at home (like we have been friends for years even though we just met). Thank you."
