“Incredible Service”

Hotel & Boutique Hojarascas

Aug 5, 2008

Hotel Hojarascas was a clean, charming hotel in Heredia, with amazing service. Jose, one of the owners, picked us up from the airport, booked tours for us and prepared us a fabulous Costa Rican breakfast, complete with fresh fruit and much more. The rooms were small, yet clean, and we had access to a refrigerator in the hotel's kitchen, which made food shopping easy. While we were expecting Heredia to be more natural, we enjoyed walking the streets of the city...Overall, Hotel Hojarascas was a great place to start our trip to Costa Rica!

We chose this hotel because of its proximity to the airport and it was a great start to our trip! The owners were helpful and went out of their way to meet our needs. On our earlier departure they even provided us breakfast before the normal breakfast hours. The room was clean. Their breakfasts were fresh. They provided internet and laundry services that we used more than we expected. We returned here for our last night and felt like we were returning to our own family!

Our first stay at Hojarascas was not our last. We made it our "base " for travel throughout Costa Rica. Personal service,impeccably clean rooms and a welcoming family made this an ideal place for our home base. It was conveniently located close to airports and our amiable host met our international flight making our arrival a smooth, hassle free experience. We enjoyed the central location of the hotel in Heredia, close to a supermarket, pharmacy, indoor public market and historical sites. We highly recommend this hotel for travelers looking for a friendly and safe stay.
Jose woke up at 4a.m. to see us off to Canada! Thanks

“Beautiful, clean and Amazing Hosts”

Hotel & Boutique Hojarascas

1/1 found this review helpful

One of the best places we stayed in our 5 weeks in Costa Rica. The family who runs the hotel, led by Jose Omar, makes you feel like you are the most special people in the world. They will do everything they can for you with a smile. They even personally drove us to a restaurant when a taxi didn´t arrive on time.
The rooms are perfectly clean. We stayed in both a regular room and in the apartment. The architecture is beautiful and you feel like you´ve found a jewel in the middle of a crowded city.
You can do your laundry for free, which is great after a month in the rainforest. Also they pick you up and drop you off for free from the airport. If you arrive before check-in, they will gladly store your luggage while you explore the city.
In the morning, you are treated to a breakfast with fresh fruit, yogurt, fresh bread, etc. I can`t say enough about this hotel. I recommend it 100%.
The hotel has an excellent web site. The photos show how beautfiul the hotel is.

“Hotel Hojarascas, The Oasis”

Hotel & Boutique Hojarascas

This establishment was one of the best hotels we have stayed in, in terms of cost, cleanliness and especially great service!Jose Omar and his family-run hotel provided us with very helpful driving directions, wonderful tours, suggested affordable restaurants in Heredia and prepared a fabulous breakfast every morning. We stayed at Hotel Hojarascas for three days and by the time we left, we considered Jose Omar like a brother. When we return to Costa Rica, even if we don't stay in Heredia, we will make an effort to visit Jose Omar and his great hotel!
