Breakfast was ok. It's in a dodgy area, so don't go outside after dark on your own and keep phones, jewellery and valuables out of sight ##### John Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Nikki Mar 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Very convenient for the centre of San Jose. The rooms and bathroom were dated but clean. It was noisy at night as in the centre but ear plugs did the trick ##### Nikki Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christopher Jul 31, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Hotel Novo is a plain, decent hotel. Everything works. The staff is friendly and helpful. Good rates, with a good breakfast included. The neighborhood is typical of a busy city. Best of all, the hotel is around the corner from Avenida Central, a long, lively pedestrian mall that includes the vibrant Mercado Central. ##### Christopher Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### AGRIPINA Aug 8, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff was exelent. clean rooms ##### AGRIPINA Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christopher Jul 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The hotel is reliable and functional. The staff were friendly and helpful. The block in front of it isn't that great, but it's around the corner from the pedestrian mall that leads to the mercado and other shopping, food, and drinks. Very convenient. Good value. ##### Christopher Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Shawntez Sep 3, 2024 Liked: Staff & service Great place to stay if you want to get a real feel for San Jose. It’s not super pretty but I felt safe and it had everything I needed ##### Shawntez Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Dec 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great staff. The only con was the low water pressure in the shower. Bear in mind that there's constant music from shops around during the whole day, if your room faces the street (it didn't matter to me in general, just when I had online meetings 😂) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Charles Jan 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Loud traffic early in the morning and loud music in the evening. ##### Charles Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joanne Aug 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great value in a great location. We took the local bus from San Jose airport to the Tuasa bus station. Just a short walk from the station brought us to Novo hotel, which is located in the thick of the city. Walking from the hotel to the National Museum and other sights was easy and interesting, with shops, buskers and street sellers to explore on the way. The hotel itself is a little dated, but our room was big with a comfortable bed, got walk - in shower, fridge, good a/c and TV. The 24 hour reception gave us easy check out when we left at 5am to catch the bus back to the airport. This was a great place to stay in San Jose. ##### Joanne Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elisabeth Aug 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location! You can walk to nearby shops, parks, restaurants, and a bus station that goes to the airport. I love that we can leave our luggage and they have a place to hold it so we can drop our car off. The on-site restaurant is delicious and the staff are friendly and helpful. The room was clean and the bed was comfy. The street traffic can get a little noisy but I can easily fall back asleep. I have stayed here before and will continue to do so in the future. ##### Elisabeth Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Wing Dec 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Right around the corner of the hotel is the central avenue. There are museums, parks, central market on both sides of the avenue. I can walk to them in less than 30 mins. It is also closed to various bus stations, such as the NICA, TICA and Terminal 7.10. In the night time, I prefer to take UBER. The staff are very nice. The hotel provided breakfast. The room is exactly same as the pictures. ##### Wing Stayed 6 nights in Nov 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Nicholas Dec 27, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Average: not too bad, not too good It sufficed. Some of the fixtures and fittings (electrical sockets) did not work, could be cleaner, a bit run down and in a run down neighbourhood. Not too bad a place, also not too good ##### Nicholas Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Allen Mar 13, 2024 Room was a good size, very clean, good air condition, large bright windows, comfy double bed, clean bathroom with hot shower, tv worked fine many English channels, felt secure, and quiet, decent breakfast in the morning, helpful friendly staff. Location convenient where Paseo Colon meets Avenida Central close to Central Market. The area requires caution at night. Overall was pleased with the hotel which offers a lot for the relatively inexpensive price, my girlfriend and I would definitely go back. ##### Allen Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Irma Mar 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities To much noise every night outside the hotel. ##### Irma Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Stan Dec 27, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The Hotel is located in the worst part of San Jose, there were people sleeping on the sidewalks which was piled with garbage, you were warned not to go out the Hotel during the night, I requested a refund of part of the fees, but they refused, I spent three nights and had to move to a safer area in San Juan, San Jose. ##### Stan Stayed 8 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Alana Feb 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hotel all fine! The Hotel Novo was as described, great staff, hotel could do with some tlc but I was only one night here arriving late from the airport and heading to the Pacific next day. Room was clean, bed was comfy, WiFi worked fine and breakfast was much appreciated. Couldn't adjust the air con but that could have been user error from my side. Can't really complain from a price/quality point of view. Also there was no noise but I was not on the street side. Really handy if you are using the bus station. ##### Alana Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### RAY Mar 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Hotel Novo is located in the perfect location for walking San Jose. You can hear and feel the hustle and bustle of the city. If you want quiet and peaceful, this is not the place for you but to "feel" the city of San Jose in your bones, stay right here! The staff is great from the front desk to the cleaning personnel to the dining facility. Don't miss the chance to experience San Jose to the fullest! Wake up early to the sounds of the street and let those same sounds lull you to sleep at night. I will definitely return to the Hotel Novo! ##### RAY Stayed 9 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Carlos Sep 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Its an ok place to stay at for 50 dlls a night. Beware that it is located at the very downtown of San Jose so besides the fact that fortunately I didnt go through any inconvenieces it still seemed somewhat unsafe specially if you are traveling with your girlfriend or kids. Dont expose them. Tourist locations are located nearby, I walked to those. Hotel functions were ok except for the fact that the water was coming out warm instead of hot. The staff was attenentive and helpful ##### Carlos Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [DoubleTree by Hilton Cariari - San Jose Costa Rica](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Cariari-San-Jose-Costa-Rica.h118803.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Presidente](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Hotel-Presidente.h1126992.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Ottawa Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Ottawa-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Ottawa-Airport.h1845021.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express San Jose Costa Rica Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-San-Jose-Costa-Rica-Airport.h2303711.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham San Jose Herradura Hotel & Convention Center](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Wyndham-San-Jose-Herradura-Hotel-Convention-Center.h1377921.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Waterslides in Kelowna](https://www.expedia.ca/Kelowna-Hotels-Hotels-With-Waterslides.0-0-d3997-tHotelswithWaterslides.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Kitchener](https://www.expedia.ca/Kitchener-Hotels.d10579.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, San Jose Aeropuerto, Costa Rica](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Country-Inn-Suites-By-Radisson.h1039787.Hotel-Information) > > [Gran Hotel Costa Rica, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Gran-Hotel-Costa-Rica.h15745.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Grano de Oro](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Hotel-Grano-De-Oro.h994383.Hotel-Information) > > [Barceló San José](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Barcelo-San-Jose.h788912.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Wyndham Cypress Palms](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Cypress-Palms.h456398.Hotel-Information) > > [Pueblo Bonito Rose Resort and Spa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Cabo-San-Lucas-Hotels-Pueblo-Bonito-Rose-Resort-And-Spa-All-Inclusive.h663422.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn San Jose La Sabana](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-San-Jose-La-Sabana.h10579877.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxhigh Hotel San José](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Hotel-Del-Rey-Casino.h13333495.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza San Jose La Sabana by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-San-Jose-Corobici.h441323.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton San Jose Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Suites-By-Hilton-San-Jose-Airport.h921872.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Samaná](https://www.expedia.ca/Samana-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d6046772-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Costa Rica Backpackers - Hostel](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Costa-Rica-Backpackers-Hostel.h9411196.Hotel-Information) > > [Casa Conde Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Casa-Conde-Hotel-Suites.h1219064.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in New York](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels.d178293.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotel Mango](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Hotel-Mango.h29702434.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Ottawa (YOW) to Regina (YQR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yow/yqr/ottawa-to-regina) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Kelowna (YLW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/ylw/calgary-to-kelowna) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Miami (MIA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/mia/toronto-to-miami) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Kitchener (YKF)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/ykf/toronto-to-kitchener) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Marseille (MRS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/mrs/toronto-to-marseille) ### Packages > [Sint Maarten](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/6143274/Sint-Maarten) > > [PATH Underground Shopping Mall](https://www.expedia.ca/PATH-Underground-Shopping-Mall-Downtown-Toronto.d6200046.Vacation-Attraction)
