“Terrific airport hotel!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 26, 2013

Stayed here 2 separate nights, one before flying to OSA Peninsula from Tobias airport and one night before early flight back to NYC.
Both our rooms were very clean and the decor was fairly new. The breakfast was delicious and varied. Will stay here again next trip. There is a new gourmet grocery store walking distance where you can pick up snacks or prepared food for dinner.

“Awesome Resort”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 25, 2013

I had a great experience here, we had a training session for some customers and it could not have gone better. The rooms, service and the food was fantastic. Please stay here you will not be disappointed.

Room Tip: I had a Balcony, great for sunset and rises!

“A great place, close to the airport, to begin and end our 2-week adventure in Costa Rica.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 24, 2013

I was afraid this Doubletree by Hilton in Costa Rica would feel a bit "Americanized," but it wasn't. It was a lovely spot to rest up at both the beginning and ending of our trip. It was a bit further from San Jose than I preferred, but we took a bus one time and a taxi the next. It was so convenient to the airport. The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. The meals were great! We seemed to have buffet breakfasts throughout our trip. Theirs was the best... with lots of variety! And their salmon dish on the dinner menu was especially good!

“Nice hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 24, 2013

The warm chocolate cookie on arrival is a great start. The room was clean, spacious and had a nice bathroom. The outlook was poor - straight into a hedge and quite noisy at times. The breakfast buffet was the best we had during our holiday in Costa Rica. The staff were very pleasant. We ate in the restaurant once and the meal was very nice though expensive. There's an Italian and a sushi restaurant just out of the front door of the hotel to the right. It's only a short walk. There's also a supermarket in that area too. The hotel has a decent sized swimming pool and jacuzzi with sun loungers around. The restaurant and bar overlook the pool area which is very pleasant.

Room Tip: Try to get a quiet room. The area can be noisy with people outside the hotel and there is you can h...

“Very Nice hotel to stay at close to airport”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 24, 2013

The hotel was very nice for the price and it was close to the airport. STaff friendly and English speaking. Breakfast was amazing however you have to pay for the upgrade. Some mix up with "Breakfast Included" Overall very nice stay
