The dentist recommended the Villas, located across the street from the office, for my recent stay in Costa Rica. I didn't want to be limited to a single hotel room for fear of boredom between visits to the dentist. The Villas were ideal. The delicious breakfast each morning out on the patio overlooking the courtyard, was outstanding. The rooms are... More

This was my wife and I's first trip to Costa Rica (or any developing nation), and we didn't speak a lot of Spanish, so we were a little cautious about where to stay (for security and for ease of navigation). The hotel was great - they helped us with booking tours, with navigating public transport, getting to and from the... More

We love this place. The one bedroom apartments are a great deal. We used hotels.com to get a price under $100+taxes. It is 10 minutes walking to a grocery, pharmacy, beer, and several dining areas. It is within a block of the American Embassy. The hot tub and pool are great and never crowded.

After reading many bad things about staying in San Jose we decided to stay at the del Rio in the suburb of Escazu. A very good experience. They provided a smooth airport pickup. Initially we were given a noisy suite too near a busy road. When we respectfully asked for a change we were given a quieter & upgraded suite.... More

A wonderfull place to come for holidays or business. The rooms are big with a lot of lights and all the facilities that you need. I've passed 9 days in this place and it's really one of the best.

After leaving the Maria Alexandra, we stayed one night last week at the del Rio. Cost including tax for a one bedroom suite was just under $120 (ask for a corporate rate). The construction quality and quietness was a considerable improvement, but then again, the price was 25% higher. The internet connection in the room is outdated, but serviceable. Breakfast... More

A "local" suggested this hotel, which I found to be perfectly adequate for a business trip, not as a charming hotel or bed & breakfast. That being said, the rooms were spacious and spotlessly clean, though not very nicely designed. We had internet access at the lobby, complimentary breakfast, nice pool, and gym. The location was nice, in mainly a... More
