Immerse yourself in the culture of San Jose
Come find us on Central Avenue Pedestrian Boulevard – the City’s vibrant core, and a source of unparalleled energy. San Jose welcomes the adventurous at heart… and has your chance to experience our neighborhood like a local. Who knows what you’ll uncover while you’re here? Many of the city’s best museums and galleries, as well as public parks, shops, restaurants and bars are within easy walking distance. It’s all up to what you want to see, do and enjoy; we are here to help make it happen!
From the moment you step into our brick and teak lobby, the Hotel Presidente staff will greet you with the warmth you’d expect from a family-owned hotel. Well-appointed rooms and suites feature Wi-Fi, comfy beds, and showers with great water pressure; plus, a daily breakfast included in the room rate to help you start your morning in style. Make a toast at sunset on the rooftop at Azotea Calle 7, our pride-and-joy bar/restaurant, or collaborate and create in one of our versatile working spaces.

The Best and Most Convenient Location
Ditch the car and explore the colorful sights, sounds and energy of San José on foot! Tucked within the center of the revitalized downtown district, Hotel Presidente is conveniently located within walking distance of world-famous cultural institutions, such as top museums and performance venues. But of course, you’ll also be steps away from some of our favorite local hangouts as well – the bars, restaurants, and nightclubs that make up the pulse of our people, the source of our scene.
(And for necessities like supermarkets, banks, ATMs and pharmacies, all you have to do is ask and we’ll point you in the right direction!) No need to worry about airport transportation, either – we have shuttle service available for booking 24/7. If you’re looking to venture a bit further, we can even arrange for a rental car to be waiting for you in our parking lot after you’ve enjoyed breakfast or book you a tour to one of Costa Rica’s beautiful destinations.
