Gran Hotel Costa Rica, Curio Collection by Hilton

Gran Hotel Costa Rica, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent
"We didn’t spend much time at the hotel, but from our limited experience we think it is a very nice hotel. Our flight was delayed by 8 hours, so we didn’t arrive at the hotel until after 1am in the morning, and our Tour company picked us up at 6am. Even at 1am, we were greeted in the lobby and taken to the check-in desk, where we quickly and efficiently checked in. Afterwards, they walked us to our rooms. The rooms were clean and very nice, and the bed was comfortable."
