Parque Del Lago Boutique Hotel

The hotel staff are wonderful they helped us with our airport transportation and knew we were flying out early so they allowed us to have breakfast a little early. The breakfast was fantastic with traditional Costa Rica offerings like eggs, rices and beans, some cheese and a large selection of fresh fruits, excellent coffee and some juice. It’s a great hotel within walking distance of a few good restaurants as well. We would stay again.

Parque Del Lago was perfect for our needs. We were only staying in San Jose to fly in and out of Costa Rica, and the complimentary Pick Up and Drop Off service was superb. Met at airport with our name on a sign and escorted politely to a very good cab. On the day of our return trip, we were transported by a very nice driver in a comfortable van. All aspects of this transportation was efficient, courteous, and easy. The staff at the hotel were all gracious, helpful and understanding of whatever we wanted. It is very obvious that they are professional and well trained about international travelers. The bar/restaurant was good. The mixed drinks were particularly expert. The rums are exceedingly fine. My wife loved the many non-alcoholic fruit drinks: agua frescas!!! Food was good. Particularly the complimentary breakfast in the morning was VERY GOOD. I wouldn't miss it! The rooms were good, clean, the beds comfortable, and the a/c was fine. While we only used the hotel for transit, THE PARK virtually across the street was nice and safe. Some reviews overstate the negatives and hardly mention the positives. I would say it is like any big city park. No I wouldn't walk around at night alone, especially very late, but would you do that most of the time anywhere? We were never accosted, never approached, never threatened. There were many children, leagues playing games, joggers, walkers, and a wonderful couple selling fresh aqua frescas or a fresh coconut to drink out of with a straw for 2 dollars. There is also a wonderful museum just as you cross the street into the park. The police looked to have an office in the park, and they were smiling and friendly when I waved to them. So, Hotel Parque Del Lago is a great choice.

Location was great and check-in was quick and extremely efficient! Our room was clean and very comfortable. Really appreciated the complimentary Costa Rican breakfast as well! Would definitely recommend staying at Hotel Parque Del Lago!
