Hampton by Hilton San Jose Airport

"Great location close to airport with very lovely staff and a frequent shuttle to airport. Could use a little TLC and updating"

Hotel Mango

10/10 Excellent

"The Mango Verde Hotel is our go to for the night before we get on an early flight out. The staff is kind and helpful the restaurant is a great easy place for dinner - or there are other restaurants easy walking distance away. The rooms are simple, but very clean and easy in and out. The Hotel is about 3 minutes from the airport and the airport shuttle is free."

Hilton Garden Inn San Jose Airport City Mall

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel was so nice and clean, great location,"

Barceló San José

8/10 Good

"This is an older hotel so don't expect a modern place. It is well kept and has its charm but somethings should be updated such as their computer system and carpets should be changed for hygiene reasons. The check in was extremely slow. There was virtually only one person checking in people, there was 2 people in front of me and it took over 25 minutes and I waited 2 hours for the room."

Fairfield by Marriott San Jose Airport Alajuela

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was amazing!"

Hyatt Place Cariari Convention Center

8/10 Good

"The rooms were very clean and comfortable. I believe the rooms were new or recently renovated. My only concerns is the water pressure was on the rather low side and the elevators were problematic. The staff were fantastic at every level. The food in the restaurant was average. Overall I would recommend this stay simply due to the cleanliness and comfort of the rooms."
