This is one of the few places we haven´t had a private bathroom and you really don´t need it here. The shared bathrooms are excellent and not shared by many rooms anyway. They are the best showers we have had in central america (both hot and powerful, very rare)! Odd that they charge so much more for private bathrooms -... more

Came to costa rica for our honeymoon. Stayed first night in the Aranjuez. My wife's uncle drove us from the airport, but I've been told this ride can be $20 in a taxi. No problems during our stay. rooms were very clean and the bed was good. Tico beds are not luxurious. Had a private room and shower. If you... more

The hotel is not in a centric area but hardly any are, and anyway they always advice to take taxis (which for short distances are very cheap). The rooms were clean, basic, with TV, safe and phone with free local phone calls. Breakfast in the gardens: great both food (omelette and pancake station, fresh fruit, pastries and typical pintos) and... more

We stayed at the Hotel Aranjuez on 2 seperate nights while in Costa Rica. Like they advertise all of the rooms are different. We chose the deluxe room @ $47 a night. The first night's room was okay and just a little crowded with 3 beds, but on the second time the room was much nicer with a queen bed... more

The $43 for our clean superior double room was worth it alone for the breakfast that’s included – the best in San Jose with omelettes made to order, range of tasty fresh fruit, cheeses and pastries. The front desk staff were extremely helpful and courteous, and the location is fine for getting around San Jose. If you have a choice... more

We were only here one night, but our room was very cool - high ceiling, big windows facing the street, recess lights - and when we walked around the hotel, it was also very cool to discover just how big it was. From the outside, it just looks like this tiny place, but once you get in there, it's much... more

The main part of the hotel is very nice and the breakfast was very good. I was unfortunately in the apartments portion of the hotel which is not as nice and are across the street from the main hotel. These rooms were safe and reasonably clean with a very nice bathroom. However, because there is no doorman for the apartments,... more

The hotel is overall good. The garden/breakfast area is excellent. The only thing we did not like is that we bought our tour from them and the experience we had in Arenal was not the best and there was nothing they could do. The Arenal tour was not what we thought we bought, and the tour to Cano Negro is... more

This is a nice, comfortable hotel in San Jose. The rooms are distributed on one floor among lots of plants, giving it a relaxed environment. Our room was actually two rooms like a suite, on one there was a sofa and the bathroom and on the other there was the bed. At night the room was a little cold, but... more
