Central to San Jose
Good hotel if you are staying in San Jose for any time. It is located in a safe neighborhood and very convenient if you are taking a bus anywhere. The staff is amazing and the hotel itself is good.

Perfect Location
It is located in the heart of San Jose. Everything is a walking distance and a quite area. It is easy to access to tour bus which is going to other travel area. Near the hotel, the morazo park is so beautiful. The staff are so friendly and helpful to get a local information.

Great hotel at a perfect location with perfect price
Holiday Inn Aurola was a great find in downtown San Jose. The staff was always friendly and helpful. The room was clean and pleasant. The hotel amenities were also a big plus. The hotel is located at walking distance to most attractions in downtown San Jose.

In Hotel
The restaurant on the bottom floor was great. Everyday they serve a buffet lunch with typical Costa Rican foods, plus coffee, juices and dessert for only $10.00 per person. Can't beat that!!!

Great for downtown
Staff is wonderful - helpful and friendly. Beautiful entry and views from room. Restaurants were disappointing. 20 minutes and $30 taxi ride from airport so not worth overnight stay unless you have time to enjoy city.

Good hotel for the value
Wonderful hotel due to it's city center location. It felt so lively and was withing walking distance to all the major landmarks so no need to waste money on a city tour. It's Tropicana restaurant also offers some tasty low priced food that doesn't taste like hotel food.

Short drive from hotel
The ariel tram through the rainforest is a waste of money. It's so slow and boring and you don't see anything except trees, no animals or pretty birds. Save the $90 for a better excursion

Do not stay here if you intend to entertain friends
Hotel was OK except for the staff at the reception; they lack courtesy! Especially the guy that worked the reception at late nights from Jan 26, 2012 to Jan 31, 2012.
