We stayed with a group at Hotel Villa Tournon 11/5-6, 2009. It was easy to get from SJO airport to the hotel (the taxi stand manager outside baggage claim knew the hotel right away - cost $25) and it was conveniently located about 6 blocks from the center of downtown. The lobby is modern and welcoming. There are two computers... more

Stayed eight nights at this clean if dated property. Staff was very pleasant and accomodating. A short walk to downtown through Barrio Amon(10 minutes) and the Centro Commercial El Pueblo for meals (2 minutes) . Would recommend to the active traveler as a central place to sleep between tours, although, AVOID room 326 unless you wish to experience sleeping on... more

We stayed at this hotel just as a brief layover between Arenal & Manuel Antonio. This place would be good for a business traveler looking for a place to sleep as wireless is everywhere. However, for the leisure traveler, the place is a bit too basic with decor and amenities from the late '70s. The room, although huge, felt like... more

San Jose is a jumping point for most travelers to Costa Rica, as it was for my husband and me. The Villa Tournon was chosen for us by our travel agent on our way to an eco-tour vacation. The staff were all very helpful and friendly. The room was clean and adequate. Nothing fancy. The hotel is just a bit... more

We had a stopover nite in San Jose before going on an eco-tour and were booked at the villa tournon. It is on a busy street and quite noisy at night, however there is a small pool garden which is a little oasis behind high fences. The room was adequate and clean, as where the halls and public spaces. The... more

The room was nice but I did not speak spanish so I did have some trouble with communicating with the front desk. They were not very helpful. Cab ride from airport was $20. Breakfast was ok. more

I've stayed at this hotel 3 times in the last 3 years (most recently for 2 weeks in Sept/October '06)-my employer chose it. The staff has been the same at each visit, which is a good sign. The people are really the strength of this property. They are friendly and helpful, more than adequately bi-lingual. The place itself is a... more

This hotel looks like it was built by Mike Brady of the Brady Bunch back in the 1970s. The big advantage of this hotel is its location-- it isn't right in the middle of town so it seemed safer and quieter than other central San Jose options. But the rooms weren't fancy and needed to be updated about 20 years... more

I spent two days in San Jose on business, and on the advice of my business associate, had avoided the hotels on Central Avenue, instead he recommended the Villa Tournon, an easy 15 minute walk from downtown, and 2 minute walk from the 'Pueblo' entertainment area. From the minute I walked through the door, the hotel staff were friendly and... more
