Hotels near Juan Santamaria Airport

Pros: The hotel is only a 5 minute drive to the airport- very close. The breakfast included was very good. The owner is VERY helpful and accommodating. Taxis to and from the airport are paid for.

Cons: The bed wasn’t very comfortable and the bathroom was a little outdated. Only a minor issue considering the price, however.

Pros: The location is near the airport, the owner is very attentive and provides all you need un a beautiful place. Beautiful garden area, ride to the airport and a breakfast to go. My 4th time here and esch time she's done more.

Cons: i have nothing to say bad about this place

Pros: It's modern and with a good location. It feels knew and you'll enjoy the buffet in the mornings. It's definetly for young couples or business travelers

Cons: Parking is very small if you want to be close to the hotel (only about 8 cars). If there are more than that you'll end up parking at another far away parking they share with other buildings. There isn't a swimming pool

Pros: I liked that there was a bar on site and a pool table. The bathroom was spacious.

Cons: The night we stayed there, a DJ was playing loud music in the reception area. I couldn't really hear the woman who was checking us in at the front desk.

Pros: Manager and staff were GREAT... Great value close to airport... We will go back again..

Pros: Practical, functional, lively young environment, good breakfast and friendly staff.

Cons: AC compresors on roof above the 7th floor are not mechanically isolated. First night was like sleeping (not) with the compresor in the room. Staff acted surprised when I asked to be moved. Really? NO SLEEP ON THE 7th!

Pros: Confort was excellent

Cons: Aloft is a perfect option for business at San Jose

Pros: This hotel had it all. I had a long layover and stayed here. It was the perfect place to relax with fabulous ammenities.

Cons: No complaints! I wouldn't have changed a thing!

Pros: Excelente atención y ubicación

Pros: Very different experience as a hotel , sort of a club in a constant happy hour.

Cons: No shuttle to the airport and loud music playing all the time at the lobby .

Pros: Pros - Modern hotel/rooms - Diego at the front desk referred us to an awesome club nearby

Cons: Cons - overwhelming sense of humidity in hotel room - smell of mold - front desk offered us a shuttle for $550 USD one way to Jaco. I told him that I had found a comparable shuttle for $150. He explained that that was impossible---that such a price was likely per person. I ended up booking the $150 shuttle for 7 passengers and it was amazing!

Pros: Breakfast is excellent

Cons: When we arrived at Aloft, the lobby was packed with people. There was some kind of party going on. The staff told me I they didn't actually have a room for me, despite my reservation. Instead they told us we had to stay at the Hotel Indigo down the street. Indigo was fine, but they charged us more for the room, and it was not the room configuration we reserved at Aloft.

Pros: I believe Aloft has a perfect service with right price, all services are quick, on time and with a great smile

Cons: Please review sliding door for bathroom, it is so hard to open

Pros: Location near the airport is its main advantage. Inside is peaceful, clean, modern, and comfortable. Front desk staff gave some great advice including that we return our rental car the night before our early-morning flight, and that the rental car shuttle would bring us back to the hotel. This was the best idea and greatly simplified our morning of departure. The hotel shuttle to the airport was quick and efficient.

Cons: The pool is tiny, and tucked away in a back corner. The cafe/restaurant in the lobby is modern and inviting with a great looking menu, however, our waitress was the slowest on the planet. Every step took about 5 times longer than it should have. Even when we finally caught her eye (the place was 90 percent empty at the time), and indicated that we wanted the bill, she took another 10 minutes to finish sorting cutlery before coming over and putting us out of our misery. The food was good, but the service was terrible.

Pros: Very friendly staff at desk who took time to check me in when they could not find my reservation. Maybe issue with online company I booked through but they still honored my rate.

Cons: Some issues with the hot water at sink and shower. Was either scalding hot or cold. Hard to tune. Not a deal breaker at all though

Pros: Close to airport, affordable, queen-sized beds, big enoigh for 4 adults

Cons: Some of the staff wasn't the friendliest, but no one was rude. They were all informative. No complaints!

Pros: Everything about the hotel was just perfect. It was right down the street from airport and the shuttle takes you there every 30 minutes.

Cons: I had family staying on another floor and the elevator only allows you to go to your floor. Good security but too good I guess

Pros: Great time at the hotel. Modern, clean, easy to access from the airport.

Cons: No complaints at all

Pros: Close to airport. Great front desk staff.

Pros: El hotel es.bonito

Cons: El servicio es pesimo

Pros: Very close to the airport and a free shuttle every 1/2 hour. A good first or last night stay. 6-7 restaurants right across the parking lot.

Pros: Location, close to the airport and has restaurants available for those arriving in the evening

Pros: The price for one night was amazing, and the location to the airport was really convenient. If I had a layover in San Jose - Alajuela I would definitely stay there again.

Cons: Continental Breakfast was not included with the deal I got on Kayak.

Pros: Everything was very good. Friendly staff, good breakfast, good parking. Five nights and all went well.

Cons: The traffic at the entry to the hotel is nightmare.

Pros: Came in on a late flight to San Jose and stopped off at the Holiday Inn Express for a night before jumping off into the Costa Rican countryside in the morning. For this purpose it did exactly what it needed to do. Shuttle bus that picked up at the airport was a plus.

Cons: A little bit pricey for what you get but not acceptable for one night. The breakfast options were pretty basic but in their defense they were a typical Costa Rican style (gallo pinto, eggs, coffee, and some fresh fruits). Traffic at the intersection in front of the hotel can be horrific so keep that in mind if you will be driving. Also, keep an eye out for the shuttle bus that comes around outside of the arrivals area and stops close to the taxi stand. A "helpful" local showed me where to go then just happened to mention that he works on tips. I could have just waited on my own for it...

Pros: Bed was comfortable

Cons: The room had a terrible smell. They said you could get wifi in the hotel, but it was really only in the lobby area. The traffic outside is very loud because of a crazy intersection and you can hear planes landing and taking off.

Cons: Bill was mixed up & Never did get our points

Pros: We had a number of special requests and they were very gracious. Check in was a breeze

Pros: Overall, everything was great. Location is perfect for flying to the airport. Staff was very helpful and really wants to help you! Room was comfortable and clean. 24 hour shuttle was awesome! Great value for the money. For those who arrive at off hours there is a Denny's close by.

Cons: Our only negative was the breakfast which was very processed (e.g. scrambled eggs were bland) and not enough variety for the cost of that hotel.

Pros: We needed a room close to the airport as my flight was at 1:45am. The gate keeper came to our room to be sure we were up so he could open the gate for us to let is out and the. Of course had to let my boyfriend back in after he dropped me off. That was very nice of him to check on us so I didn't miss my flight it was a shorty

Cons: All was fine. It was a short stay for me

Pros: Very peaceful place(8 units) near the airport and away from the hustle bustle of the fast moving city. A quiet sanctuary and the pictures are exactly how it looks. Karem who speaks english very well and her husband give it that extra effort of hospitality. Perfect place to return to!

Cons: Only thing maybe more towels.

Pros: Convenient for flying in and out of airport. comfortable room and beds.

Cons: The noise of the construction

Pros: I can't say a single bad thing about this hotel. Clean, comfortable, convenient. From the front desk check in with smiles snd snacks, to check out with shuttle service to the airport was ALL good. We even got breakfast to go already packed for us since our plane left in the middle of the night. TV even had adequate english speaking channels. Short walk to Denney's. I wished I had booked the first part of my stay here as well.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: Wonderful place to stay! Staff was helpful, friendly and professional. Hotel was very clean, and the room met all of our expectations. Shuttle service to the airport was fantastic. The driver was friendly and helpful with our bags and such. Great place to stay!

Pros: Room was comfortable, little convenience mart was great, and free shuttle service to the airport was very helpful.

Cons: Staff member checking me out in the morning was extremely rude, and did not treat me like a guest. She then proceeded to treat the male guest behind me with actual etiquette ~ not sure why it's that difficult to remain consistently polite.

Pros: easy check in and friendly staff. The breakfast is also very good and well prepared. Hats of to the cooking staff.

Cons: nothing

Pros: My husband stayed a couple of days before and left his computer there. The staff was kind enough to locate it and put it in the safe for us.

Pros: Brand new room. Excellent breakfast. Friendly staff. Shuttle bus was easy to spot and the drivers were great. Highly recommended.

Pros: Perfect hotel for the money. We had three rooms, all with two queen beds for only $92 per room. The staff was exceptionally friendly, the pool and gardens are nice, and the restaurant was one of the best meals throughout our trip. Airport shuttle was on time even with our 3:30am pickup.

Cons: The shower has soap/shampoo and conditioner (I think) attached to the wall. I'll probably avoid the "conditioner" if I stay again.

Pros: the shuttle service to airport worked great

Pros: Price and attitude!

Cons: Bfast little poor, but cant expect more for the price.

Pros: The staff tried quite hard to be attentive and responsive. The location near the main airport is excellent, as is the transport to and from.

Pros: Close to the airport, provided free transportation

Cons: It was a little dirty.

Cons: Hair on pillow, sink + tub, bathroom needed a good scrub... too many wipedowns w used towels, heavy morning traffic is loud

Pros: Convenient location for being in/out the SJO airport. Free transfer that takes 10-15 minutes. The hotel is rather basic, but provides all what a budget traveler needs. There is even a small swimming pool. Good beds, small but nice lobby, good breakfast, clean and well-cared breakfast area. With a very competitive rate (breakfast included), free airport transfer, helpful English/Spanish speaking staff, and several nearby restaurants, it is a good choice for one-night stay for those arriving or departing at San Jose Santamaria airport.

Cons: The rooms are rather dated, yet they are sufficiently clean.

Pros: Really beautiful space easy to get to from the airport and the owner Henry was super nice and friendly!

Pros: What isn’t there to like? The place was amazing. Totally felt like family, beds were soft, and the WiFi was great. I highly, highly recommend that you stay here when visiting the San José area. The owners are some of the nicest people you’ll ever met and are totally accommodating.

Cons: Nothing. Everything was great.
