There were many dining options literally within 3-5 min walk. The atmosphere was calm and the installations (pool and green area were beautiful). A cozy hideaway so close to San Jose was hard to believe, but it is true and loved it. Will stay there again in near future.

This building belonged to the old Holiday inn. They still share amenities, but the building itself is in bad shape compared to the one managed by Holiday inn. The Hotel Irazu is nice for the price.
