Besides being very well located, the hotel has been recently renovated. The rooms and bathrooms are very modern and clean. The beds are confortable and the room had a large flat tv with international cable. The breakfast, included in the price, was buffet style, with both American and Costa Rican food. The staff was helpful and friendly. This hotel is a very good deal for the money.

We enjoyed our stay at the Presidente Hotel. It is located in the heart of San Jose and is convenient for walking to shops, museums, and other places of interest. The hotel had free internet that actually worked. The conceirge and staff were extremely helpful. I highly recommend the Rain Forest Spa for a massage. The restaurant was wonderful, breakfast was included and offered a wide variety. Lunch and dinner were great also and the price of lunch at the restaurant was less than the cost of a lunch at the US fast food restaurant down the street, and much better also.

The hotel was good. Pretty Clean and safe. Had all ammenitied and the staff was friendly. However if you are visiting Costarica to enjoy the nature and do some adventure activities, SanJose is not the place.

The hotel is in a great location. The staff was very professional and accommodated all our requests. I would recommend taking the city tour, the coffee plantation tour and a 4/5-in-one tour. If you are looking for places to eat away from the city center the concierge recommended two places to us that were great and very reasonably priced--The Jazz Cafe in Escazu, very nice, small and they have live entertainment. There is a cover charge of $5. The other is an Italian restuarant in San Pedro, sorry I forgot the name--the pizza was simply great. For shopping I would recommend the mall in Escazu. I would not recommend a rental car as driving in San Jose can be challenging. The taxi service is reliable and cost effective.

Hotel Presidente is located right in the middle of downtown. It is within walking distance to most of the attractions, like parks, shops, markets, and museums. The staff was friendly and helpful. The security to the entrance of the hotel from the street made me feel safe. The complimentary breakfast was more than enough to start our days.
The contemporary room had a huge king bed. The restroom was average size. There wasnt much of a view from our room. After staying a week in a dinky room on the beach to surf, this was a nice was to relax and get pampered. The room looked like the pictures.
We took advantage of the spa/sauna/hot tub at the top of the hotel. You book for an hour slot and you have the whole area to yourself. The view was good from up there.
I would stay at this hotel again for the location, comfort, and great deal.
