Hotel 1492

Very attentive service. Hotel had character—in a good way! Train did not disturb me at all. It’s a bit worn—a broken tile here, faded blankets…but we were safe and comfortable and enjoyed the neighborhood. The free parking was what sold me on the place. Very pleased, will stay again when in San José.

Muy bueno y práctico

Ubicado en una zona con muy buen ambiente nocturno. El hotel es una muestra de la arquitectura de las casas antiguas, muy acogedor. Buena atencion en la recepcion.

Excellent location, wonderful staff, small rooms but with all that you need. Hotel is very near a noisy railway, so bring earplugs! My biggest problem was a snoring neighbour who was so loud he could be heard from three rooms away. His poor wife...

Unique hotel and friendly staff. The location is convenient and walking distance to restaurants and you can walk co city center…a bit of a walk but very doable.

Great location for city centre and local restaurants, bars and coffee shops. But pack ear plugs - it's close to the rail tracks and tooting starts at 5.30 but it's not unpleasant.

Been coming to SJO for twenty years, this is the best bargain in town. Beautiful property run by very nice folks. Kent

I like this property because of its location, boutique, quiet and reasonable price. It is a large house and felt more like a home than a hotel. The small garden breakfast area was nice. The staffs were all kind, smiling and helpful. The airport pickup service took a lot of worry out for my late evening arrival with a price similar to a taxi. Uber is not legal in San Jose, therefore airport pickup is troublesome. I used Uber at other times without problem. The location of the hotel is excellent with walking distance to tourist spots in downtown. The neighborhood is upper-middle class and felt safe. They have different sized rooms according to your needs. I found out later that Hillary Clinton stayed there in 2005. The wife of the owner was a painter. She gave Hillary a flower painting. I would recommend it.

El lugar tiene muchísimo potencial, pero requiere más atención en el cuidado. La habitación se percibió un poco descuidada el primer día, particularmente el baño. Los días subsiguientes estuvo mejor. Tiene un patio interior hermoso, pero necesita mantenimiento. El desayuno es un poco limitado, pero la empleada que lo confecciona es sumamente amable y servicial. Al igual que ella, Juan, el Front desk que nos recibió, también es muy amable, servicial y ofrece alternativas. De inmediato nos coordinó uno de los tours y fue muy eficiente. En términos de la ubicación, es espectacular. Es tranquilo y en una cuadra te ubicas en el área gastronómica y turística de Escalante. También te ofrecen asistencia para coordinar transporte hacia el aeropuerto. Eso da gran tranquilidad y seguridad. En general, yo recomendaría considerar las áreas identificadas y lo recomendaría. Gracias.

Muy bien.
