Santo Tomas is an older property but it has its charm. The beds are good and there is plenty of hot water. The staff are very friendly and helpful. It is very close to all amenities, although the grid system can be a little confusing. The breakfasts are good and plentiful. A great place to spend a couple of days seeing the amazing museums and touristy hotspots of San Jose.

The location is good, rooms are big., staff are good. The only problem to me was cleanliness. I recommend them to wash up all bed covers, they smell dirt. And some rooms has carpets which snell very bad! They need to be washed. I didn’t touch the towels, couldn’t trust if they are clean.

Huge room. Lovely old building, beautiful tile floors. Very secure-parking in an enclosed area. Walking distance to National Museum of Costa Rica (excellent) and several dining options.

My recent stay at, a converted estate with a rich history, was an enchanting experience that seamlessly blended the quirky with the regal, making it a standout choice for accommodations in San Jose. Upon stepping through the doors of this charming hotel, I was immediately struck by the unique character that comes with being a converted estate. The architecture and interior design retained a regal charm while embracing a touch of quirkiness that added a distinct personality to the entire stay. The staff played a pivotal role in making my visit truly memorable. From the warm welcome at check-in to the personalized recommendations for exploring San Jose, their commitment to guest satisfaction was evident. The level of attentiveness and genuine friendliness created an inviting atmosphere that made me feel like a valued guest throughout my stay. The location of the hotel couldn't have been more perfect. Situated in the heart of San Jose, it provided easy access to key attractions, cultural hotspots, and vibrant neighborhoods. Whether I was strolling through historic districts or exploring the city's renowned culinary scene, everything was conveniently within reach. I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a memorable and delightful stay in the heart of San Jose. I can't wait to return for another visit to this captivating retreat.

First solo trip to costa rica and inselefted a local hotel to get the real experience. It is nicely located so that i could walk to sights. Plenty of eating places nearby. The experience was truly made special by the staff who were very helpful and assisted me with booking my day tours.

Jeremy let me check in early, which I greatly appreciated. I enjoyed the jacuzzi, and the breakfast was great. I had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Thomas, who is a good guy. I know that these people will try very hard to make your stay enjoyable.
