Top Pacayas Hotel Reviews

Hotel Presidente

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly staff, clean room, stylish decor, good location - a great hotel experience."

Hyatt Place San José/Pinares

10/10 Excellent

"Always a good place to stay when in San Jose"

Barceló San José

8/10 Good

"This is an older hotel so don't expect a modern place. It is well kept and has its charm but somethings should be updated such as their computer system and carpets should be changed for hygiene reasons. The check in was extremely slow. There was virtually only one person checking in people, there was 2 people in front of me and it took over 25 minutes and I waited 2 hours for the room."

Hilton San Jose La Sabana

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were clean and the staff was nice to me."

Balmoral Hotel San José CR, Historic District

8/10 Good

"Llegamos en la noche a las 11:00 pm. Avisamos q llegábamos tarde. No sabíamos cómo entrar estuvimos como media hora esperando. Hasta que el chofer comenzó a tocar bocina. Al final apareció una señora y abrió una compuerta. Era la misma q nos atendió en el front desk. La señora estaba, no muy amigable. Parecía molesta. Fue el único incidente que podemos decir desagradable en el hotel."

Gran Hotel Costa Rica, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and comfortable"

Urban Green Hotel & Suites

"Hotel is in the heart of san Jose. The rooms were clean. All amenities worked. We had a pleasant stay. The staff was very courteous and helpful. Breakfast which is included was delicious."

Hotel Grano de Oro

10/10 Excellent

"I have stayed at the Grano del Oro on numerous occasions and it’s always a five stars experience. The hotel, an old Spanish mansion with gorgeous woodwork and appointments, is beautiful. The staff are incredible and helpful also. Marco and the front desk staff are great, and don’t miss Carlos at the beautiful bar. The restaurant is excellent and has added some creative touches to its menu in addition. A must stay in San Jose!"
