Top El Llano Hotel Reviews

Wyndham San Jose Herradura Hotel & Convention Center

10/10 Excellent

"La piscina estupenda y la atención del personal muy buena"

Hotel Mango

10/10 Excellent

"Mango is a great place to stop before and after the airport. I wish I had discovered it sooner. It will be my "go to" airport hotel in Costa Rica. Dinner was delicious, the staff was very kind, the pool and outdoor areas were relaxing. The rooms were basic, but clean and comfortable. They provided an airport shuttle at 4 am and included cookies and coffee at that hour."

Holiday Inn Express San Jose Costa Rica Airport by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The staff is always very helpful, cheery and accomodating. Checkin is always a breeze, the shuttle for the Gastronomic Route is efficient and reliable to take us to quality food options (rePUBlic is a favourite) and the breakfast is healthy, plentiful and well cared for by the staff (Minor was a kind and caring manager of the food and gave us nice insights into the various fruits available). Bravo team Alajuela HI."
