San Jose is nobody’s favorite city. Still, many travelers find themselves staying there for at least a night or two when in Costa Rica, often more. While it may not be the nicest part of Costa Rica, it is a central location to access any of Costa Rica’s many incredible attractions. Luckily there is a way to enjoy all of the things that make Costa Rica such a dream while still being in a prime location. Hotel Bougainvillea is just outside of San Jose, close enough so that you have access to all the buses and tours that leave from San Jose, but far enough that you feel immersed in Costa Rica’s stunning jungle.

A beautiful hotel with everything to offer

Hotel Bougainvillea is more than just a place to go to sleep at night. With everything this hotel has to offer, you will find it easy to lose track of the days relaxing and enjoying their amenities. Breakfast is included, but every meal is delicious at Hotel Bougainvillea. Inside you will also find a collection of rocks and a fitness center. The back of the hotel is a massive garden. Within the garden you can find hundreds of species of plants, a tennis court, a pool, and plenty of conference rooms. Whatever you look for in a hotel, you are sure to find it along with much more at Hotel Bougainvillea.

As fantastic as the hotel is, do not be tempted to stay inside for too long. One of Hotel Bougainvillea’s main advantages is its location. You can easily organize tours through the front desk to whichever regions of Costa Rica you are most keen to see. If you prefer to take the bus yourself or use a different tour agency than the hotel offers, it is very easy to take a taxi into the center of San Jose where you can access the buses and other tour agencies. However you decide to get there, make sure you take some time to explore Costa Rica’s diverse terrain.

Hotel Bougainvillea has some of the best hotel staff in the world

When you arrive at Hotel Bougainvillea you will immediately be impressed by the quality of their service. Someone is always willing and ready to help. Their staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and as much as I have traveled, I have yet to come across hotel staff as impressive as the staff at Hotel Bougainvillea. If the hotel is not enough to amaze you, the staff will put your experience over-the-top.

Moral of the story: Hotel Bougainvillea is an ideal alternative to San Jose

There are more beautiful regions of Costa Rica for those willing to trek into the less convenient parts of the country, but those who want to stay in a central location need not give up Costa Rica’s natural beauty to do so. Instead, you only have to travel a few minutes out of San Jose! Rooms at Hotel Bougainvillea range from 128 USD (114 EUR) to 154 USD (137 EUR), so you are guaranteed to get your money’s worth.
