San Jose Hotels with Swimming Pools

This hotel rocks! We stayed here the first night of our trip, and were welcomed by the kind staff and some of the FRESHEST and WARMEST TASTIEST free cookies upon check in. By the end of our stay one of our relatives literally hoarded the cookies, asking for 4-5 per day. The pool was very pretty, and the breakfast was so fancy, aesthetic and tasty! The rooms were nice and cool, very clean, and had a great selection of TV channels. On the last night of our trip, we had initially pre-planned to stay at this one hotel in the forrest, but our party decided to leave because of a number of concerning observations. We were all exhausted as it was the end of our trip, and needed somewhere to stay. Immediately everyone started chanting that they wanted to go back to the DoubleTree. We arrived and everyone sighed a relief, and we went to our warm beds with our cookies!

We stayed for one night after arriving in San Jose. We got a taxi from the airport, which took about half an hour to get to the hotel. The hotel is really big and spacious, the rooms were comfortable, and we particularly enjoyed the lovely pool area outside where we could relax with drinks from the bar.

The hotel is beautiful, the staff is very friendly and gentle. It is located 20 minutes from the airport and precise for what I needed. The breakfast is delicious, and the price is good since in Costa Rica everything is very expensive.

I had a 5 star experience here for 8 nights and enjoyed a beautiful room overlooking the golf course and mountains. The room service was exceptional particularly the quesadilla and the pasta dishes. The pools were sensational and even tho it was packed there was plenty of room for everyone. The spa was well worth it (ask for Laura) she is the best! I had great housekeeping from Maria on the fifth floor and my favorite bellman was a gentleman named Carlos. Everyone was very friendly and when there were any issues at checkout or checkin they were resolved quickly by the excellent customer support team of Caleb, Jackeline & Gianina all of whom provided impeccable service.

I just came back from a week long trip to Costa Rica and stayed at the Studio Hotel Boutique. Everything about this hotel was wonderful. Outstanding service from the staff, beautiful hotel in a quiet part of Santa Ana, and beautiful art all over the hotel. We felt like we were staying in a museum. The restaurant had great food, and a great breakfast buffet, with a wide variety of choices for everyone. Harold who is in charge of the tours was wonderful. We contacted him before our visit, and he took care of everything for us. We always go with big chain hotels, but the price and the reviews for this hotel encouraged us to take a chance. I’m so glad we did. The price was decent and the hotel was excellent, a real find. I give this hotel 5 stars. I look forward to staying there again, and I recommend this hotel to anyone taking a trip to Costa Rica.

This was the perfect hotel for a quick stay in San Jose. Breakfast was not included but it was worth buying. The included airport transfer was great! He was waiting with a sign and made the process very easy. The staff was very friendly at the front desk. Would recommend this place for a quick stay!

If I traveled to CR often I would want to keep this gem to myself. Such a great hotel, but the rave would be the breakfast - AMAZING! There are several options for breakfast but you can also pick your own combination of foods. The coffee is great and even the oatmeal is something special. If you leave hungry it is your own fault. The rooms are simple but nicely decorated and spacious. We had a two bedroom suite that had an additional daybed type couch, a refrigerator and sink, maybe a stovetop, but I don’t remember for sure since we didn’t cook there. The pool was on the cold side but we did see several people swimming. It’s centrally located with some convenient restaurants in walking distance. I will definitely try to stay here again.

Breakfast is OK, you can choose local food / American or fruit breakfast; the bath facilities in the room are not good, the bath pool is slow; the service is not enough, the bottled water that is welcome to stay is also not available, it needs to be charged, each bottle 3.5 US dollars seems.

Big hotel near the main historic downtown area, just a few minutes walk from several major public museums and art galleries, and many options nearby for casual and upscale bars and restaurants. Our king-bed studio was on the 12th floor, with a great view of the city and the mountains beyond. Breakfast was a typical hotel buffet, and plentiful with something for everyone. Check-in was very smooth. We looked in on the 3rd floor pool but didn’t take time to try it out. One thing missing was an in-room guide to hotel amenities and services, so we had to keep calling or dropping by the front desk. They were helpful, but it would save everyone time if there was an in-room booklet.

The city view was the best part, we got picked up from the hotel for a day tour. Tour guide said we’re in the new buildings area but it’s still unsafe at night so don’t go walking around, but the hotel itself was five to ten minutes from everything else, in the day we did walk around and felt safe, the park is right next to it which was nice to see and of course the stadium, cleanliness and guest services were great accommodating, we had our anniversary dinner at their restaurant and it had great views but service was slow and food was only okay, could’ve/should’ve eaten somewhere else, the best part was the pool on the highest floor, the top four floors were apartments, but the pool is on the highest of their floor, the jacuzzi wasn’t warmed and they warmed us that it wasn’t, but the pool itself was nice to swim in, stayed there for a little over an hour before going to dinner, would definitely go book again
