Hilton Garden Inn San Jose Airport City Mall

"We love our stay, every person who I spoke with, did the extra mile The kindness was extraordinary amazing like everyone in the country and the hotel also I absolutely come back in my next trip to Costa Rica My family is from 3 hours away and we always want to be near to the airport the flight day and we definitely we will be back"

Gardens House, Airport Juan Santamaría, Alajuela, San Jose

10/10 Excellent

"I got a single at Garden House and paid for the pick-up service from the airport. As a solo female traveler, I was nervous about staying here by myself, but everything was great! Gerardo picked me up right on time, safely drove me to the property, and showed me around the house. The managers kindly shared go-to spots around San Jose and nearby areas. The room was clean and tidy (and had AC). There are beautiful plants everywhere and an adorable little dog named Holly. Lastly, the breakfast was delicious! I would definitely come back and recommend this place to my friends/family."

Nina´s - Juan Santamaria

10/10 Excellent

"Accidentally booked my flight too early and needed somewhere to stay. They picked me up from the airport (you have to message them) and dropped me off at the place. It’s not a boujie hotel but it’s perfect for a nights rest. The room was clean and there was AC. The mall, Walmart, and some food places are close by. "

"Hard too locate. Luckily I got message from hotel with Whatsapp phone so my Uber driver could contact mgmt to get points of reference such as "across of Pali". The location was great very close (70 meters) from Puente Villa Bonita to catch bus to Cobano, Puntarenas via "Transportes Cobano"."
