The location is just 3 minutes away from the airport by complimentary shuttle service provided about every 10 - 15 min. Staff were very kind and efficient. Facilities were very clean and functional that represented well the Holiday Inn Express brand quality. We arrived much earlier than checkin time planning to do luggage checkin only first but the front desk staff was able to find an available room for early checkin. Breakfast was great and staff there were so helpful and went beyond expectation for example peeling fruits for my daughter or looking for and getting a particular tea flavor my wife wanted and collecting finished paper plates from table in this buffet breakfast setting. We felt very much at home in Costa Rica while staying overnight here. I felt that the whole hotel operation was so efficient.

Near the airport, this hotel is the perfect location if you are heading out to another place in Costa Rica. They have an exceptional breakfast, which is above and beyond any Holiday Inn express I’ve ever seen. A free shuttle takes you to the airport or to one of several nearby shopping areas with restaurants. There is also a little advertised local train next to the property that will take you in to downtown San Jose during commuter hours for a few dollars.

Karen

Reliable and fast shuttle service from hotel to airport, very good breakfast, clean rooms with hairdryers, charging ports in convenient places, WiFi worked well, friendly staff (especially José). They are super reliable if you have a flight that has been delayed and need to make a last minute hotel booking (my plane arrived in Costa Rica at around 1am and the holiday inn hotel were able to accommodate me for one night at the beginning and end of my trip).

Victoria

Clean and comfortable. Everything you would expect from a holiday inn. Location was very handy as close to the airport although the planes do wake you up at 5am as they are obviously very close by. Excellent shuttle service from the airport which you don't need to book in advance. Air conditioning unit in the bedroom was very noisy which was a shame but other than that the room was very nice.

Laura

Perfect location when arriving on a late international flight. The shuttle (at bay 13) was quick and smooth, and we were checked-in and in our room within 5 minutes. A modern. clean and superbly situated property for access to the airport. Breakfast was superb - and one of the staff even introduced us to an array of local fruits, showing us how to eat them. Highly recommended.
