I stayed at the Parque del Lago for 3 nights in Feb 2008. Other reviewers seem to have had better rooms than I did. This seemed like a standard non-US business travel hotel, and my room was nothing special. (I say non-US because when traveling outside of the USA the rooms are automatically smaller and in general I find fewer amenities). I had a small room at the end of the hall. The bathroom did not seem clean, and had a musty/damp smell. I also had to move the coffee maker to another part of the room to plug it in. Other than that though, this was a reasonable hotel, felt secure with the gates, very friendly staff, Loved the free internet access (!!), lots of TV channels (not that you come to CR to watch TV, but...), okay breakfast, convenient to airport. There was a nice view of the mountains from my room.

I would probably not stay there again, just to try something else. But if I had to stay there, I wouldn't mind. We went over to the Grande del Oro for brunch one morning and the restaurant and one room I saw were great! I might try that the next time.

I met my boyfriend in San Jose. He had been budget traveling for a week already and was blown away by this place. Flat screen tv, comfortable bed, free internet, big clean bathroom.
Lovely view. we couldn't really get a handle on the neighborhood, as we were only there one night. But we ate at a nearby Brazilian steakhouse and the area seemed safe, if not commercial and therefore pretty empty on Christmas Day.

  • This TripAdvisor Member:
    • Liked — Price was good. Airport shuttle, although we did not use this.
    • Disliked — Not a ton of stores, etc within walking distance. Or if there were, we didn't walk in the right direction.

We spent about 6 days at this hotel in Jan. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable , but the best part was the excellent service . The staff was very pleasant, friendly and helpful and went out of their way to make our stay really enjoyable. we had a room on the 4th floor with a great view of San Jose . would definitely reommend it . The location is central and convenient to everything.

This is an excellent boutique hotel in a great location. I was amazed at the beautiful room (it was small though). The price was excellent and included transportation to and from the airport and breakfast. We had dinner and drinks in the hotel restaurant and really liked that as well. The staff were very friendly.

3/4 found this review helpful

The hotel is well located in San Jose with a very good value for money, we have been here in the 18 months quite a number of times using their Penthouse Guest Room.. Even so it is not that easy to get to the Penthouse the view and outfit is great.

The Restaurant offers a nice Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner with a very good Quality; the service staff is doing a fine job with a very friendly attitude. If you require any additional service or help the Employees will go out of their way to provide it.

In short the place is a perfect place to stay and a very good option if you do not wish to stay in one of San Jose high end hotels, the only down side the property has is at times the heavy and loud traffic noise from the street.
