Polished Merced hotel with a central pool, Costa Rican buffet breakfast, and a short drive to popular downtown attractions

While exploring these attractions is easily manageable, prospective guests are advised to either secure a rental car for maximum flexibility or be prepared to utilize taxi services for convenient transportation around San José.

Many of these rooms offer captivating views of the bustling street scene, providing a glimpse into the daily life of the city. Alternatively, some rooms overlook the tranquil small inner courtyard, a serene space where visitors can unwind and relax by the refreshing outdoor pool.

Costa Rica is a nature lover's dream travel destination. Hike to hidden waterfalls, fly through the rainforest on a zip line, raft amazing white-water, or catch a wave on one of the many epic surf breaks.
When is the best time to visit?
Due to Costa Rica's location in Central America, near to the equator, it enjoys just two seasons annually as opposed to four. The dry season lasts from mid-November through April, and the rainy season lasts from May to mid-November. The latter is also referred to as the "green" season due to the brilliant vegetation that thrives during this period.
Travelers often opt to visit during the dry season. Peak crowds hit in December, with folks continuing to come during January and February and (for many North Americans) during spring break. However, there are advantages to visiting Costa Rica in the "green" season, from less crowds to lower prices. Read our travel guide for visiting Costa Rica in the "green" season to find out more.
