The staff were super helpful! Our flight was delayed and already a late evening flight. I got in contact and they provided us a ride service (for a fee, worth it), and we were able to get to the hotel safe and sound. Great staff, great service, and a great breakfast!

10/10

First and foremost: it’s centrally located : museums and other sites, shops, restaurants are walking distance. Second: rooms are elegant and accommodating. Third: staff is professional, friendly and very accommodating: they kept my luggage so I could travel light on small plane from San Jose to Limon for a few days, so I didn’t have to rent a storage locker. Lastly, breakfast is served fresh, hot and delicious: Five out of five stars!!!!!

8/10

Amazing location. Everything seemed walkable. Beds were cozy. The only real drawback was there was no real windows to look out and in the early morning there was this noise that sounded like pressurized steam blowing off intermittently from 7-9. Tolerable, just a bit annoying.

I usually stay at Cutura Plaza when in San Jose. I like the downtown location, choice of restaurants and shopping all walking distance from hotel. Friendly staff.
4-night trip

8/10

This hotel is in a convenient location, close to museums, central market, grocery stores and more. Included breakfast in restaurant in hotel was very good. For us, the only significant downside was our room was very small for two people with two pieces of luggage, backpacks, etc. and there was no window.
