This hotel is completely overpriced. The front desk staff was completely unfriendly. The bathroom wasn’t clean, (tub too dirty to sit in and the glass in the shower has soap scum on it). The room has a small coffee maker with no milk or creamer and the cups were dirty. At this outrageous price, breakfast should be included for all guests, however, our $344 per night room did not include breakfast and when we asked if it could be included, we were told no. I wouldn’t consider ever staying here again. There are comparable options in the area for $100+ a night cheaper. I can’t stand a snobby hotel riding off of a name while providing zero customer service.

Double charged my CC, unacceptable customer service

Beware booking this hotel. They may over charge your credit card and make it painfully difficult to refund. Their staff will claim as an honest mistake yet take weeks to respond to your complaint. Book at your own risk.

Room for improvement

Reviewed By nickie k

The rooms are spacious and modern, but the standard rooms don’t have a hand shower. We had to pay an extra $60 a night for an upgraded room just to get a hand shower . The front desk staff had very poor English and were not well trained or service oriented at all.

Posada El Quijote

Posada El Quijote is a Spanish colonial inn set against a backdrop of spectacular views of Costa Rica's central valley and the city of San Jose.Situated atop the first hill 3.5 miles from the city center, Posada El Quijote is far enough to be in a comfortable country setting, free from the congestion and noise of the capital, but close enough to enjoy easy access to the city and its facilities. The recently refurbished hotel, with a history dating back to 1994, offers an alternative to the large hotel chains that have recently established themselves in the area; Large enough to accommodate groups, but small enough to offer a very homely, relaxed and personal atmosphere. The staff (and onsite owners) are always prepared to provide their best to make your stay as enjoyable as possible.

Friendly cats

Reviewed By cwhoughton

If you like cats this is the place for you. If on the other hand you are allergic to cats you might want to consider another place to stay. First of all, the other reviews are spot on. The staff is friendly and attentive and the view from of the city is beautiful. It is a cozy place and is well secured inside a gated walled area. Our room number 26 was large and clean. The bed was comfortable as well. All in all, it is good value for the hundred dollars a night. But again, while we don’t dislike cats in general, both my wife and I are allergic to them. The resident cat has the run of the house and rooms to include our room which smelled of cat dander. We had to keep escorting the cat out of our room whenever we came and went as it had access thru the broken screen on the door leading to the back deck. In any event, we both had itchy eyes and headaches during our two day stay. Regrettably because of the cat, we will not stay there again on future visits to the area. CWH

Great Hotel, Poor Customer Service

Reviewed By yrpcostarica

I have stayed at this hotel many times over the last year. It has become a welcoming home base whenever I am in San José. It is very comfortable in its Zen simplicity and many of the people at the front desk have been extremely kind and helpful. During my last stay in April 2022, I was charged for four nights when I only stayed for three nights. I have been trying to get a refund for over six weeks with no success. I have spoken with them on the phone, emailed them, and contacted them through their website. And still, no positive response. Very disappointing Customer Service,

The parking is limited and pretty steep. The hotel is okay and the staff is nice. The view is beautiful! The rooms in the hotel are simple but fine, the beds are comfortable. The breakfast was okay, the juice wasn’t fresh.

Artistic & Cozy

Reviewed By Tallgirlnnj

Spent our last night in Costa Rica is a cute and cozy bed and breakfast filled with art done by the homeowner. Our hostess, Cecile, was very welcoming and sweet as she greeted us that rainy night…next morning we woke up to a beautifully set table on the outside porch …she cooked for me and my husband a typical “tiko breakast” of eggs peppers and onions along with fresh cut up fruit / yogurt and freshly homemade sourdough and multigrain bread” (bread was still warm!) It was located near many restaurants and stores; wish would had more time to spend exploring the area ….there’s always next time but definitely would recommend and go back!
