We stayed at Hotel Pacandé both when we arrived at SJO & on our way back out, and found the rooms to be comfortable and clean and the staff to be very friendly and welcoming. We would definitely consider staying there again in the future. They provided guarded parking and free Internet access. We felt like we were coming home... more

Always upon arrival we are greeted by Umberto, always we treated like family, we were looking to by a car, and this is NO simple task here, Cecilia y Jose, went above and beyond to help us with... more

The Hotel Pacande was quite small and quante, but very good for the value. The rooms were nice and the breakfast was very small but fresh and delightful under the sun. Very good for a one night stay before going the the airport. more

stayed here our first night in costa rica and found the room small but adequate. this was amongst the cleanest hotels i stayed at, but the walls were verrrry thin. if someone in the lobby coughed, we heard it in our room. i'm a light sleeper and woke up every time the bell rang. and, as i feared, i was... more

My fiance and I stayed here for 1 night upon our arrival into Costa Rica. The hotel itself was nice, small and quaint. The room was nice, but can hear neighbors like they are right in your room. Has a free breakfast of bread and fruit. Staff was very friendly and accomadating. The area, Alajuela, is terrible. Very unsafe city.... more

Wonderful little family run hotel. Friendly helpful staff who go out of their way to welcome you and make your stay enjoyable. Have been visiting every April / May for as long as I can remember. My wife and I look forward to our visit, either staying alone or with 15 University students in tow. Can unreservedly recommend. more

Good place to stay on our last night in Costa Rica before an early morning flight. From the outside, it doesn't look like much. It's in a row with another hotel and a hostel. But the inside is very clean and welcoming. We were in the upstairs suite. The room was very large and cute with wood paneling and a... more

Breakfast every morning was very welcome and prepared by... more

After walking around Alajuela looking for a decent and reasonably priced room, we checked out Hotel Pacande and were pleasantly surprised. It doesn't look like much from the outside - it's sandwiched between a hostel and another hotel and has bars covering the windows and doors. Constanza opened the gate for us and was warm and welcoming, setting the mood... more
