We’ve stayed at the Holiday Inn on many occasions. It is a very convenient hotel right near SJO. Nothing fancy, just easy and convenient. They have a very small gym to grab a workout and the pool is decent. In the evenings they have a shuttle to take you to local areas for dinner which is nice. There are restaurants as well right outside the hotel in case you just want to grab a quick bite. Breakfast is also fairly nice and airport transfers are included. Staff is friendly and helpful. We look forward to our next stay.

The breakfast was incredible. By far the best I've had in any hotel, in any country. I will recommend it to friends on that alone but I also want to say the people were amazing. Friendly, helpful, very nice. The kind of people a business is lucky to have on staff.
