Safari Tentalow in San Jose

Spent 5 nights as part of a combined ‘Buenos Aires/Montevideo’ trip. Always look for small stylish hotels and the Alquimista is absolutely spot on. Beautiful 1920s building, lovely room, freshly-cooked breakfast, and just an all-round wonderful ‘feel’ staying here. The real highlight though was the welcoming hospitality and local advice from Carolina and Mark - do ask how to find Jueves 5 for a post-city-sightseeing drink if you want to sample an out-of-the-way bar which tourists rarely find....

Nice out of city property close to the airport. Vast amounts of unrestricted parking. Lovely green grounds, with pond, outdoor pool, and playing areas. Nice enough indoor pool, and gym, sauna although this area was a little tried and could do with improvement. Nice enough breakfast given the price. Food choice in the restaurant very limited but fine for a short stay. Other local options seem to only cater for lunch. Great Price to quality ratio.

Great staff, quite location good amenities!

Amazing place, full of charm and character with amazing hospitality. The hosts so generous and kind. Lovely breakfast. Secure and peaceful location with good parking.

Great staff. The lady that checked us in was very helpful.

Complimentary bottled water or a refill station would be greatly appreciated for foreign guests for a hotel of this rating

Clean room, large, with really friendly staff. Great location too- walking distance to everything!
