We have a very comfortable stay with the Dunn Inn on our two day stop over in San Jose. We loved the history and the area was easy walking to downtown. Front desk staff was wonderful!

A great choice to visit.
I had a delightful stay in early December. Although Air Canada was late arriving, the hotel taxi was there to meet me— and 2 gentlemen ere out on the sidewalk to welcome me. Fabian, desk manager, was hospitable and most helpful. Strangely the food servers were very distant. & cool. Breakfasts were delicious. English pub menu was dull— Spanish lunch menu was a hit with locals. Talented chefs.

I loved this hotel! The staff were great, the property was nice and it was a beautiful hotel. The area around the hotel became unsafe after dark. I was glad that there were security persons and video cameras. The food was good and I loved the bar, too. It's not the hotel's fault that the area is unsafe after dark.

Charming hotel converted from two former mansions. Easily accessible to downtown San José and the Avenida Central, yet away from the noise, bustle, and traffic. Very nice, helpful staff. The personalized free breakfast is excellent and includes delicious local papaya & pineapple.
I requested the pickup service from SJO for $35 and was met outside of customs by my private driver. I appreciated this safe, hassle-free way to get to Hotel Dunn Inn.
Dinner and drinks are available in the large, airy dining room & bar. A peaceful respite after a day exploring the capital city and its parks, markets, and museums.

Wonderful Stay at Dunn Inn in San José!
My wife and I spent three delightful days at Dunn Inn in San José downtown, Costa Rica. The location was perfect, just a short walk to a lively casino and several museums. Our room was clean, comfortable, and well-appointed, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the delicious free breakfast each morning and the meals at the on-site restaurant. Overall, we highly recommend Dunn Inn for its comfort, convenience, and excellent service.

Everyone working there was so lovely. Rooms super clean and comfortable, beds were great, breakfast was delicious. The only down side was the street noise from the club, but everything else was great!

It was our last day in costa rica. The hotel is well situated close by the main attractions of the city.
The service is very good. The rooms are a bit old but it is in a nice building with nice paintings around.
Breakfast is simple but fine.
