Santiago

"Would highly recommend this place. The owners just couldn't be nicer or more helpful. The cabins are bright, comfortable, and clean. The location is convenient to the Mirador de Ujarras and the Ruinas de Ujarras as well as multiple good restaurants. The citrus trees on the grounds attract lots of interesting birds. We saw at least 35 species from our porch. Hanging out with their adorable, super friendly Doberman was a big bonus for us."

Top Cartago Hotel Reviews

Hampton by Hilton San Jose Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing Hotel very convenient for airport stay"

Holiday Inn Express San Jose Costa Rica Airport by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The entire experience, booking and stay, was so helpful. As well as the airport shuttle. I truly appreciate what they do."

Wyndham San Jose Herradura Hotel & Convention Center

8/10 Good

"We are staying there beginning an end of trip flying in and out of San Jose… It was perfect for that being fairly close to the airport but yet it is 25 minutes outside of San Jose. Not much around in the way of amenities, restaurants, and such. Casino was on property"

Hyatt Centric San José Escazú

10/10 Excellent

"El personal es muy colaborador y amable. Estuve contento de hallar en mi cuarto una mesita que me sirvió de escritorio, lo que no había en mi habitación en febrero. Aprecio el aislamiento fónico que limita la entrada de los ruidos exteriores, y las batas muy abrigadas. Cama confortable. Excelente atención 1) en el restaurante, en particular de Fabiola, Viviana, Luis y Carlos, siempre con una sonrisa. 2) en la recepción, con Randy, Kenia y Jonathan. La música queda fuerte y no relajante, pero tengo que resignarme, porque en prácticamente todos los lugares (hoteles, restaurantes y almacenes, hay esa música agitada, salvo en los restaurantes de alta gama. Regresaré con gusto en enero de 2027, para quedarme con gusto varios días con mi esposa."

Hotel Costa Verde

10/10 Excellent

"Absolute paradise! Great location that was beautifully landscaped! Note: breakfast has a surcharge!"

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean, new feeling hotel and nice staff."
