The Courtyard Marriott in Escazu is a great place to begin or end your stay in Costa Rica. It is a very short taxi ride ($2.00) to a large mall with movies in English and fast food restaurants. The plaza located next to the hotel is very nice with an Outback Steakhouse and Hootersrestaurant with several other interesting restaurants and... more

Background: We came to the Courtyard for one night prior to our morning flight home after 12 days at Los Suenos Marriott, which was amazing. I stay in Courtyards regularly, so I won't compare this hotel to the Marriott (not a fair comparison). Most of the other reviewers have covered the features of this hotel well. My "items to note"... more

It's what you expect from a Marriott Courtyard. The room was clean, the bathroom was clean, the internet worked, and it was quiet. The front desk staff were never busy and were always polite and helpful. The breakfast was fantastic with waffles and omelets made to order. The location was great for the business we were conducting and we were... more

As my favourite hotel in San Jose (the melia cariari) has been taken over by doubletree. And there prices went skyhigh. I opted for another hotel for my 1 night stay. I was very happy with the Courtyard by Marriott. Easy to reach by car and also a complimentary shuttle service from the Airport. Service as to be expected. Room... more

I had a last minute change in plans on my recent trip to Costa Rica and ended up needing a decent hotel close to Pavas, the airport where Nature Air departs from. Although I usually stay in Alajuela while in the area that proved to be too far for an early morning flight so I chose the Marriott instead. The... more

This was my third trip to Costa Rica and previously I stayed at the Courtyard. (See my October 2007 review) I decided to stay this time at the Marriott Costa Rica primarily because of the mostly rave reviews of this hotel on Trip Adviser, even though it was more expensive than the Courtyard. I was very disappointed. The room was... more

We stayed here the night before flying home. Further from the airport than we expected. Great restaurants and shopping within walking distance. Nice facility. Friendly staff. We stayed in a room that faced the parking lot. The noise from the Hooters across the street kept us up half the night. Hopefully, you won't need to make an international call using... more

This hotel was great. The rooms were clean, the bed was comfortable, and the tv came with a lot of channel options. The front desk was accomodating, offering currency exchanges as well as the option to buy your airport tax from the hotel (with a premium payment of course), and a free shuttle to the airport. There is a small... more

My husband and I recently stayed at the Courtyard Marriott for 3 nights during our first trip to Costa Rica and highly recommend this hotel. Courtyard was a restful haven as we dashed about. Nicely appointed rooms, lovely pool, excellent breakfast - included in our rate (both Costa Rican and American food), convenient gift/snack shop with long hours, and good... more
