This hotel was very close to the airport. It was very easy to jump on the shuttle and we were at the hotel in minutes. After a long travel day it was perfect!

Our incoming flight from Dallas was canceled and we ended up in Guatemala City. We arrived at the San Jose Hampton just as breakfast was ending. They let us eat and gave us toothbrushes, as our luggage had not made it there, which was very much appreciated. Nice people.

Okay stay, staff excellent but room lacking
Second stay in 4 years. Shower didn’t work at all. Room service food was awful. Customer service excellent & the offer a 24/7 shuttle that runs every 15 min. If you’re renting a car consider a drop off being one of these across the street!

Great hotel
We stayed at this property twice on our trip. First time was when we arrived into Costa Rica and the second time was the day before we flew out. Both times were very nice. The rooms had enough space for pot family of 4. Beds were comfortable. The free breakfast had a good variety. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We would recommend this property.
