This is a typical Hampton Inn that is conveniently located VERY near the airport. There is an airport shuttle and you can walk to Rosti Pollo and Denny's for meals. We arrived about 8:30 PM and checked in and ate at dennys. The staff was good and our room was clean. We began and our trip there. but since we... More

We stayed at this hotel for 1 night to catch an early morning flight back home. It has comfortable beds and linens, hair dryer, safe, soaps and shampoos. It has a small outdoor pool, nice modern decor and friendly staff. It was very clean and wifi worked well in the rooms. You could also make international calls for free. We... More

At the end of our trip we had an early morning flight so checked in to Hampton Inn & Suites. I was surprised at how nice it felt to be in familiar surroundings! The desk staff were very helpful and called our rental car company to come and pick up the car. Room was clean, not luxurious but all the... More

We stayed one night, before an early morning flight. The hotel was super-clean and the room was comfortable. Check in was friendly and fast. Free telephone calls from the room, including international calls. Rental car places are very close -- walking distance. Shuttle to the airport ran frequently and it is a very quick trip to the airport. Two casual... More

The hotel had an extremely clean lobby, elevators and hallways. The rooms were clean except for the closets, which had collected large amounts of hair and dust right next to the safe (we were in two rooms, same thing in both.) The beds and pillows were clean and comfortable. The air conditioning did NOT work. It was so warm the... More

Free shuttle to and from airport was nice. Small pool outdoors nice and private but in the shade most of the time. They were doing renovations while there but things seemed to function along okay despite it. Nothing really special. Good restaurants nearby. Love the local Rosti Pollos, wood fired chicken very yummy and affordable.

Recently started out our Costa Rica vacation at the Hampton Inn. The shuttle was super easy and fast ... it took about 5 minutes to get from the airport to the hotel. The breakfast buffet was great, the room was super clean and the bed comfortable. The only negative was that there was not a restaurant or bar. There are... More

We only stayed here for 6 hours in total, after our flight from the UK. As an overnight stop it was perfect. The hotel shuttle bus picked us up and took us on the 10 minute ride to the hotel. Check in was easy and the rooms more than adequate for our needs. Very clean and well appointed. Super comfortable... More

The hotel is very convenient to the airport (with a free shuttle although we rented a car). Since our objective was to see a few things near San Jose after flying into its airport (e.g. Poas Volcano) staying outside of the city was preferable. The Hampton is not Costa Rica, but we just wanted a comfortable place to sleep for... More
