Gran Hotel Costa Rica, Curio Collection By Hilton

Cleanness, Staff and Location

There was nothing I didn’t like.

Great location and very clean. The only problem was the opaque bathroom walls which provided no privacy.

The open concert bathrooms….no privacy

Hôtel très central, pratique pour visiter le musée adjacent, très propre. Personnel très aimable.

Les chambres sont de bonne taille et bien insonorisées. Les lits doubles ne font que 140 cm, le petit déjeuner pour un hôtel de ce standing n'est pas incroyable.

I was a little disappointed to not get the sofa pictured in the room description, but the hotel accommodated us by providing a sofa bed. Breakfast buffet was good. Restaurant for dinner was fine, a little expensive. Expansive lounge areas with a nice view of the National Theater. Nice to have night lights and outlets by the bed. City center location was what we wanted.

Kind of shocked that there was no book explaining all the hotel amenities. It was a dumb (not a smart) tv with no apps and I wasted an hour trying to use the tv menus to cast from my devices before being told that was not possible. The tv and room had no master list of channels or programming, so best you could do was to hope to find a show/movie as it was starting. The room had not one piece of art. The frosted glass around the toilet and showers were off-putting. There should always be mats and grab bars in the showers. The lighting system for the room was impossible to figure out without calling the staff.
