Top Ciruelas Hotel Reviews

Hotel Mango

10/10 Excellent

"Traffic getting there is a bit sketchy. It's a tiny boutique hotel, the food was very very good at the restaurant. Room was comfortable and clean. Staff was very friendly and helpful."

AC Hotel San Jose Airport Belen

10/10 Excellent

"First the staff- immensely polite and helpful. Clean, elegant, detail oriented lobby, restaurant (s) and rooms. Very minimalist in design but everything is extremely well thought out and Marriott quality. Rooms were very quiet. Great rooftop bar and pool- minutes from the airport and whatever you do, don’t miss their 5 star breakfast buffet - it’s worth it! Also - close to modern mall to find anything you may have forgotten at home some great food trucks just outside, little market, pharmacy etc . We’ll be back!"
