Very friendly staff. Clean and very comfortable rooms. Stayed one night waiting for family to arrive next day, then one night at end of our trip. Very close to airport.

Once again a wonderful experience. We stopped at Holiday Inn San Jose CR on our way home for our children and to Panama for my husband and me.

I just Have to share our experience with our 4 & 2 year old, while we ate breakfast much was way better than expected which included not only cereal and fruit but also eggs waffles pastries and so much more, but they made balloon animals for the kids! Definitely a highlight of our trip. Great place after arriving late in CR.

I needed to stay a night while waiting for the rest of my family to arrive in Costa Rica and this hotel was super convenient. The shuttle was great, although a little unpredictable. This was due mainly to traffic and construction at the airport, so not really their fault. The room was spacious, clean, and perfect for what I needed. They also offer a complimentary breakfast in the morning and it is excellent. Not just a few containers of yogurt, and coffee, but eggs, waffles, cereal, pastries fruit, bacon. It was really great. I would absolutely recommend staying here if you need to be near the airport coming into Costa Rica or leaving early in the morning. A great, convenient spot.

I called ahead to make sure they knew we were going to be checking in late. The person I spoke with assured us there would be a room available. We got there with our two young children late at night and there were no rooms available. We waited almost an hour until a driver took us and a few other people to a different hotel which when I looked was 1/2 the price of the hotel we booked. The whole process took close to 2hrs and at that time it was 1am. I’m grateful we had a place to sleep, but it was a long process which put us further away from the airport for our flight the next morning.

Conveniently located less than 2min from airport and rental car depots within an 1 min walk. 24hr shuttle to and from Airport is provided. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Staff very friendly and hotel very family friendly. Free breakfast was basic but sufficient. Outdoor pool area clean and well maintained. Highly recommend this hotel and would stay again.

Our family has been traveling for 3 weeks and this was by far the best nights sleep I've had during my travels. After 20 hours of flying, 3 flights and 4 airports, we were picked up moments after exiting the airport, which was such a gift to all of us! We were greeted by Jose, who was informative, pleasant and kept check-in brief. Our room was clean, sheets were exceptionally soft, pillows were like clouds, the mattress was perfect and the shower pressure was excellent. Breakfast was delicious, especially for being complimentary. Thank you Holiday Inn San Jose!
