Hilton Garden Inn San Jose Airport City Mall

10/10 Excellent

"Everything is near by…😀"

Gran Hotel Costa Rica, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"We are regular guests at the Gran Hotel Costa Rica—the grande dame of old downtown San Jose. When Hilton Curio took over about 8 years they modernized the property, while still keeping some of the old aesthetics in place. It’s an upscale experience and the Bdeakfast Buffet is amongst the finest I’ve ever had. The gym is also modern and well equipped. Still the best hotel in the downtown area especially for business purposes. Highly recommended."
