A highly regarded Costa Rican gentleman and his wife recommended the Bougainvillea Hotel to us. Our first stay there was in 2001 and we have returned several times. We cannot imagine staying elsewhere in San Jose..

Best hotel In Costa Rica. The people were very nice, gardens were great, service was the best, food was good and this hotel was one of the many things that made costa rica great! This hotel made my trip the best ever!

I have stayed in all the chain hotels in SJ, none compare to warth of this hotel. A little far from the airport, but worth the earlier awakening.
