“Great first night!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 2, 2012

Let me start by telling you this was our first international trip with my husband's extended family- 9 people in total including a 12 year old and not 1, but 2- 15 month old girls (twins)...we were a bit nervous. This hotel set the tone for our vacation! From the complimentary pick up at the airport, car rental shop and grocery store, to the delicious breakfast, the GORGEOUS grounds; everything was absolutely fabulous about Hotel Robledal. The hotel is family owned this family cares about their business, their country and their guests. The grounds and rooms were immaculate and always being cleaned. Showers had hot water which we learned isn't always available in CR. The staff showed us around back of the hotel which included some plants they are growing to sustain the environment and some super awesome caterpillars! The kids loved it. On top of all of that-- they have a pack-in-play (think portable baby crib)- which they let us use for free! Only warning-- beds are a little hard--but not terrible and the goods definitely outweighed this. We will absolutely be back anytime we fly into SJO, this is a great place to stay the night before you head out to explore the beautiful country of Costa Rica!

“Perfect place to stay near the airport”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 2, 2012

So glad we selected this place. No issues whatsoever transferring from the airport to the hotel.... Emmanuel was right where he said he would be and brought us back to the hotel. Enjoyed a wonderful breakfast the following morning and then Emmanuel gave us a little tour of the garden area and we learned a little about Costa Rican nature/wildlife.

“Alajuela Oasis”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 1, 2012

Excellent from the start. They emailed a follow up to make sure their shuttle had the right flight arrival info and it was great from that point forward. Very pleasant rooms with just the right amenities, outstanding staff...from the shuttle driver to the desk attendent to the wait staff, and an evening meal that rivaled the best European 5 star restaurant. This is definitely the hotel we will use on future visits to Costa Rica. Oh and yes, the price was right!!!

Room Tip: They're all good........I said in the single story section and didn't hear a thing.

“Last Night in Costa Rica”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 30, 2012

Our family of 4, 2 adults, 2 teenage girls, stayed here our last night in Costa Rica. We had a slight communication problem with the owners picking us up from the airport - we had taken public transportation from Arenal to San Jose and I could not communicate that we were at the bus terminal so we ended up taking a cab. The cab ride was 5.00. The place itself is very nice, nice grounds, nice pool, decent size rooms. Once you are on the grounds - you don't leave - we came in late afternoon and the town of Alajuela was starting to look a little scary. We went to there bar - ice cold Imperial and dinner was available at 6:00. The dinner was awesome - bascially Piscado Casado - yum. Our room was ok, not overly clean but ok and beds were ok as well. The pool was nice to lounge by before our flight. The breakfast was really good. They did take us to the airport for our flight out and the driver was very knowlegable about Costa Rica and the area. Overall, nice family run business that is very close to the airport.

Room Tip: Depending on who answers the phone, being able to speak some Spanish is good to be able to communica...

“Lovely retreat near the airport”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 25, 2012 via mobile

The hotel is a very peaceful spot, with a great garden, nice pool area, and excellent service. The restaurant serves tasty and plentiful dishes for a fair price, and the staff are very helpful with tours, transport, currency exchange, etc.
