Great hotel! Lots of food options, clean and comfortable rooms, friendly staff and a good value. Feels more international and Costa Rican than other big brands. We enjoyed Barcelo very much. Nice pool with poolside restaurant and bar. Beautiful setting. My wife and I stayed on both the front end and back end of our trip to Costa Rica. We will stay again on our next trip to San Jose.

My spouse and I enjoyed our stay very much. Barcelo is an oasis in the city. They have friendly staff, a great property with a big pool and beautiful grounds and plenty of restaurant options. The Japanese restaurant was surprisingly very good. We also enjoyed the breakfast buffet. We also enjoyed the “premium lounge” that was included for a few $ more.

Breakfast was good with mix of local and international foods. We were on the 6th (premier) floor, so had access to the lounge. That was a great bonus, woth wines, beer, and a selection of food available all day as needed. Great hotel at a good price.
