Richard
I would never stay here again.
Niall
Great hotel. We only stayed one night as a layover to collect a hire car. They arranged a transfer from the airport, upgraded our room and the dinner in the restaurant was really good. We were even adventurous enough to walk into the centre for a couple of drinks in Piso 3 and also do walk in the park first thing in the morning.
David
Charming little hotel in San Jose. Restaurant was good but very slow (expected).
Jeevan
The Room with the patio was spacious.
The bathroom was clean and the shower was very good, with good pressure and hot water.
Breakfast was served from 7 am and everything was delicious. The Breakfast was served in a beautiful 'courtyard'.
Room service was always delivered very quickly.
Service was top-notch.
As a Expedia Gold member I got a complimenary bottle of wine and a nicely stocked mini fridge with juice, sodas and snacks.

Staff was friendly, hotel is amazing, breakfast was great!
Andrew
Our stay was best described as ‘short but sweet’! The hotel is truly amazing in terms of decor, staff and accommodations. Five star all the way! We enjoyed an amazing meal at the restaurant and breakfast was also superb. Our waiter, Roman, was absolutely the most helpful and cordial you could imagine. Truly an overall gracious experience. We’ll definitely be back to the Grano de Oro at our first opportunity.

I stay here every trip to Costa Rica! Excellent service, beautiful hotel, great food. What’s not to like!
jacque
each room has a mini split air conditioner in the room. Our 20 + year old air conditioner did Not work We informed the front desk multiple times to no avail. We had to open our room windows to a common exterior hallway to help reduce the temperature People were walking down the exterior stairs and next to our room ALL night each night. No compensation was offered for the torturous conditions.
Anne
We had a really lovely stay at Grano de Oro. From the moment we arrived until we left, the staff were attentive and kind. Our room was clean and well appointed with a comfortable bed. Every detail had been attended to to ensure our comfort.
We especially enjoyed the restaurant. It is beautifully decorated with a central open air courtyard. The food was excellent.

Marissa
The hotel is very nice. We were there just for one night to be close to the airport. Restaurant was very good (a bit formal) would recommend if you don't want to leave the property.

First time the hotel staff was not the best, slow and not attentive at the front desk
Pricilla
The service was exceptional! Staff was very helpful and always available. The property itself is beautiful. There is nothing here that is not worthy of five stars. Kevin at the front desk was extremely helpful. He went Far and Beyond to help us with different questions and needs. We will definitely be back soon!
Christopher
Amazing hotel, super friendly staff. Will hopefully be back again soon.

I really enjoyed the VIP service. They upgraded our room for free and it was very nice. The staff was also very friendly!
Adriana
We enjoyed very much our staying. The staff went beyond to accommodate our needs. They ordered the taxi, dry our clothes after a rainy trip and mad ensure to get to the airport in time. The hotel has a really nice restaurant, and the food was excellent. Honestly, I would return to Costa Rica just to eat here. If you're looking for an experience and not just a hotel, this is the place .

Great botique hotel in a beatifully restored mansion.

The Grano de Oro is the most beautiful hotel we have ever stayed in! The space is so serene and dreamy and the staff is always amazing.
Roy
The room and bed was very big and very comfortable. We had lunch on arrival which was excellent tortellini and dinner in the evening which was equally good. Local produce and very well prepared.

Elegant experience at Grano de Oro
Surprise at check in to get an upgrade to a room with a flower garden patio off the bedroom. Staff very attentive and helped us with our bags from the car to the room. Called the day before to book a massage and was fortunate to get an appointment. The massage therapist was excellent for both myself and my daugher.

Bed and food was good

We stayed at this hotel in May and KNEW we needed to go back. We had the opportunity to be back in Costa Rica this past week, and stayed here overnight so that we would be close to the airport in the morning. The staff is exceptionally professional, and kind. We always book dinner at the hotel, and it is wonderful. We feel like royalty or celebrities while we are there, and the rooms are really lovely. They stocked our fridge with tummy treats, fresh cold water, and even a bottle of wine, all complimentary! The price to stay is really reasonable for how grand the hotel feels, and treats you. Our entire family love staying here, and my kids loved the hot tub especially. 10/10, no notes.
Caroline
Beautiful hotel, lovely food, really attentive and friendly service. Really enjoyed my time here.

Absolutely gorgeous property. Loved everything about our stay. We ate at the amazing restaurant. I little more expensive, but worth it. I would stay here again and again. Super nice staff!
Clive
This is a jewel of a hotel; staff were fantastic, the accommodations were superb, the dining and bar options excellent. If you are heading to San Jose, there is no better place to stay. Definitely one of those hotels that you hope to return to one day! Pura Vida!

The staff was very accommodating, and the the place timeless..
Alsheuskaya
The hotel looks beautiful. But all stuff I wish they were more friendly and helpful.. including at the restaurant. I travel a lot and stayed in a lot of hotels so I can compare. Doesn’t help with luggage. Not explain correctly or show where the jacuzzi and gym is.
Carole
Liked the restaurant, rooftop terrace and room with private patio with fountain.

The staff was 5 stars and the amenities are amazing. The restaurant experience was the icing on the cake

Beautiful hotel. Breakfast in the courtyard was amazing! They were very accomodating as our flight was delayed and we were able to easily book late night transport from the airport at the last minute.
Destine
Exceptional hotel in San Jose
We had a wonderful two night stay in this lovely hotel. Our room opened up to a tropical area and was very private. Service was exceptional and the restaurant served amazing food in an upscale setting. I would highly recommend this hotel!
Ellen
Beautiful internal patio for breakfast or drinks/dinner.
Paula
We have been staying at Hotel Grano de Oro for more than twenty years. We always stay there whenever we are in San Jose. The service has slipped a bit in the last few years, but it’s still a lovely hotel.

The staff was incredible. The hotel was historic and unique and beautiful. The property was able to accommodate a row of rooms together for our party and the airport shuttle was very convenient.
Evan
Our stay at the Grano De Oro was one of the most enjoyable stays we have had anywhere. The hotel is beautiful but unpretentious, the staff is amazingly helpful, the restaurant is superb and the room was clean, comfortable and attractive. The room had a little closed in small patio with its own small fountain, allowing in air along with the sound of the fountain. Really a wonderful experience!
Catalina

Sadly even though there was a better room available they didn’t offer an upgrade, even though we were probably the last people to check in for the night, and there was atleast one nicer room available. The bed and pillows didn’t seem to be of a quality of a hotel that I would rate excellent and the noise from the room above us was very audible. For breakfast we ordered fresh orange juice from the room service and a fruit dish, but the juice was not a fresh pressed juice and the fruit was quite bitter. Overall the staff was nice and the accommodation was clean, I just wouldn’t give it an excellent rating due to the room comforts lacking and the noise factors.
Miguel
The Hotel Grano de Oro is a gem! Great restaurant, friendly service and easy parking made it an excellent choice for a couples' vacation.
Charles
Beautiful property, extremely well maintained with very nice staff. Restaurant was very good though quite pricey. Only con was its location, quite a long walk to downtown area and very close to a busy unattractive stretch of highway.
