Barceló San José

4.0 star property
8.8 out of 10, Excellent, (1572)
"This is the second time I’ve stayed here with my wife 3 years ago. I stayed here by myself for 4 night before she joined me and am staying a few nights more. We’ve loved both times. The staff is so friendly and courteous. Everyone so helpful. Love the pool area and the different restaurants that are apart of Barcelo. Love the view from our windows, the premium lounge on the 6th floor and who ever was playing the piano in the lobby. "

"Excellent staff, super helpful and courteous. The hotel itself can use a facelift. The pool was clean the first few days of my arrival but disgusting by mid-week and wasn’t cleaned for the rest of my stay. Swim up bar lacked items from menu and the restaurants in the hotel were usually closed or didn’t have menu items either. However, there were restaurants within walking distance and Uber Eats is also in abundance. Travel in December is a beast from this location. "

It is an airport hotel so there is flight and traffic noise. This is an odd juxtaposition when you are sitting in an amazing garden by the pool eating breakfast and a plane goes over. Ha-ha!

"Clean and conveniently located hotel- at the centre of San Jose which is a plus. Separate toilet and shower. Lots of storage space, clean, and the bed is comfortable. Breakfast was included and the service was good. The caveat: my room was located next to the Christmas decorations which flashed on and off and despite closing the curtains, it was a nuisance throughout the night. The flashing lights were tacky too- not something you’d expect in a Hilton hotel. I’d suggest not having blinking LED...
