The photos of this hotel are misleading. It is very run down and tired. When we arrived following a 30 hour journey from London there was no welcome, the lady on the desk looked like she didn't want to be there and was more interested in flirting with her coworker. I explained that we had a long flight from London to Colombia with a long layover and then another flight to San Jose and we hadn't slept in over 30 hours. She didn't comment or wanted to engage with us. It was 10am. I asked if there was a chance of an early check in (happy to pay extra.) She said no and told us to sit in reception. We sat waiting for 5 hours. No member of staff spoke to us or smiled at us. We weren't shown how to find a coffee or food. No explanation of the hotel or amenties. We ended up ordering a Burger King through Uber Eats. I asked twice nearer 3pm if the room was ready and she said no. Eventually a huge queue formed with people checking in all getting their rooms straight away. I went to ask a different receptionist who said the room was ready and had been for some time. We were exhausted at this point. Although the room was large it was poorly decorated. This is a run down hotel that needs major investment. The staff were not welcoming or friendly. We decided to cut our stay short here and left a day early to move to Poas to see the volcano. In hindsight this was the right decision. You don't need to stay in San Jose... not much to see and the real Costa Rica begins outside the city.This is not a Radison as we know it in the UK having stayed at many. I'm surprised this has the Radison name. We wish we'd have chosen a different hotel.

Disappointment, outdated, expensive compared to others in the country
Invalid Date
The Radisson Hotel in San José was clearly a very modern property when it was first built, but unfortunately it feels stuck in that era. During our trip through Costa Rica we stayed in several three-star hotels that offered better quality overall. For our last night we wanted the comfort of a luxury hotel, as the Radisson brand promises, but that expectation was not met.On the positive side, the hotel is clean and the staff are very friendly. However, our room had a musty smell of humidity, there was no minibar or fridge, and the location is not ideal. Inside the hotel you don’t notice it, but it’s not a neighborhood where you would want to walk around. Thankfully, Uber and Didi work perfectly.Breakfast was fine, but we found it tastier in less expensive hotels elsewhere in the country. The photos online are heavily edited, and the jacuzzi had a strange white film on the surface, which discouraged us from using it. Despite the odd smell, the room itself was tidy and well maintained.Overall, the hotel is acceptable, but it does not deliver the level of comfort or luxury one would expect from a Radisson. The original design is nice to keep but needs updating to live up to current standards.

The area around this hotel is sketchy. The rooms were adequate. The staff were very helpful and the restaurant was nice.

Lovely experience and art!

I cannot say enough good things about my stay. I had great vegetarian food at the downstairs restaurant, swam in the lovely pool, enjoyed the lush courtyard, had excellent service at the included brunch (so fresh and delicious!) and even purchased a beautiful original painting from an amazing local artist from right off the wall. Huge shout out to Xenia, who made sure my art got to me perfectly packaged and safe. I know she had to jump through hoops to get it to me, and she went above and beyond and was so kind and helpful. Oh! And there is a little convenience store in the lobby. And the location is amazing and walkable to lots of amazing sights and shopping. Pura Vida!
