"It was amazing hostel! I can't think of anything significant enough to complain about. The bed is SUPER soft! One of best hostel bed in my two years of traveling. There are outlet available on each bed which is useful. It's really beautiful too. One of most beautiful hostel I stayed in my two years. The service is great too. They are very nice people as well they try their best to adapt to your need. As I don't eat some specific food, they offered me a toasted bread with avocado for breakfast....

Gran Hotel Costa Rica, Curio Collection by Hilton

Gran Hotel Costa Rica, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent
"Tuve una excelente experiencia en el Gran Hotel Costa Rica. Desde el momento del check-in, el personal fue muy amable, atento y profesional. La habitación estaba impecable, era cómoda y tenía todo lo necesario para una estancia agradable. La ubicación es excelente, ideal para recorrer el centro de San José y conocer sus principales atracciones. El desayuno fue variado y de muy buena calidad, y las instalaciones del hotel estuvieron siempre limpias y bien cuidadas. Sin duda volvería a hospedarme aquí y lo recomiendo a quienes busquen comodidad, excelente servicio y una ubicación privilegiada en San José. ¡Muchas gracias por hacer de mi estancia una experiencia tan agradable!"
