San Jose Hotel Guide. Hotels in Alajuela, San Jose, Costa Rica

This hotel was far beyond our expectations! The grounds are beautiful with a citrus orchard, pool, beautiful architecture. Our room had lovely french doors that led to a balcony. The food at the restaurant was delicious. The hotel staff was kind, knowledgeable, helpful. I can say enough about this place. The rooms are basic and clean. I ended up with a few bug bites when I woke up, but hey it's Costa Rica. FYI for future travels, we did get scammed on a taxi ride from the Alamo office, where we dropped our rental car, to the hotel. The hotel staff later informed us this should cost $5. It was our mistake for trusting the taxi driver. Our taxi to the airport the next day was the right price ($5)- lesson learned.

Stayed only one night before flying back to Denver very early next morning.,after 9 nites traveling c.r. Free shuttle to sjo,5 min. New hotel ,very well maintained,excellent staff. Had beer and food at bar,quite good. Would recommend.

Great views, beautiful gardens, comfortable villa for family of five.

Hotel is close to airport and convenient. The breakfast was very good.

It's a great place to stay on your arrival and departure days.

Very close to the airport, free shuttle service which was right on time. Very nice restaurant with a great staff. Rooms a little outdated but the price was excellent as we're the grounds.

Excellent hotel close to the airport. Extremely friendly staff, make you feel at home, really willing to go the extra mile. Terrific insight and a nice quaint facility with everything you could need.

It's funny to escape into a mediterranean-themed oasis in the middle of one of Costa Rica's town centers, but alas, Asclepios is a beautiful little oasis in the midst of Alujuela's bustling activity. This hotel is a true gem. The grounds are exquisitely designed and the staff is friendly. My partner and I stayed here after a few days of "roughing it" on cloud forest hikes, canopy excursions, and other outdoor adventures. Asclepios provided a much-needed respite.

We only stayed one night but were very pleasantly surprised at how well maintained facilities are and how friendly the people working there were. We had dinner there and loved it - steak was great (though not your American thick steak it was well seasoned and flavorful). Breakfast was superb - juice, coffee, bread, fruit, egges to your order, pancakes, ham and cheese. Our flight was in the afternoon and we wanted to do some tour in the morning. We talked about it to the service desk guy he arranged for their shuttle driver to take us to the Zoo Ave (which is only 10 min away). Driver waited there for us to visit the zoo, let me stop by the local grocery store to buy coffee, and then took us to the airport. Awesome service.
