Hotel 1492

This place is great - good price and walking distance to the fun strip with lots of restaurants and bars. No complaints and we will be back!

Hotel 1492 It’s a gem in the heart of SJ. Small colonial style hotel, with nice spacious rooms, comfortable mattresses. Walking distance to Central ave, Jade museum, National museum, National theater etc. Behind the corner from Bario Escalante where you can enjoy all types of restaurants and night life. Quiet neighborhood, birds woke us up. Freshly made breakfast served in a nicely decorated dining room. It is best if you want/need to spend few night in the center of SJ.

My wife and I stayed there for five nights in a standard room in the back next to the kitchen. The hotel is old but very clean and attractively decorated. At the back of the hotel there is a garden and kitchen with a microwave and kettle for the guests to use. The front desk was attentive. It was generally quiet except for a couple of mornings at 6:00 AM. The only negatives were the extremely weak internet (being at the back of the hotel), the small rooms and the very large legs of the wooden bed frame which I kept hitting with my knee. But the positives outweigh the negatives and we would return.

Good location, friendly staff. Unfortunately it was very noisy. Couldn’t sleep the whole night. The door bell kept buzzing and people were loud after midnight. Reception didn’t do nothing about it.

The staff is friendly and location is great. Unfortunately I could not sleep the whole night. There were noises all night and the guy at reception did not care. I woke up many many times because people knocks, scream and shut doors. I told the manager at 1am about it. He did not care. Also the only way to get in the hotel is people buzz the gate. And it happen every 15 min.

Muy bonito el hotel, limpio, silencioso, muy amables con el servicio.

Beds only had fitted and top sheets no bed covers, mysterious stains on all the covers and pillow cases. Staff was very rude telling us we were crazy for thinking there needed to be a second bed cover underneath, towels were disgusting and stained, walls were stained and there seemed to be a footprint on the ceiling of the bathroom.

Muy buena ubicación en Barrio Escalante

The Hotel 1492 has a welcoming staff. The decor is bright and cheerful, and there are many spaces to sit both inside and in the beautiful garden. The building is old, but has character. Delicious breakfast, convenient to many restaurants. We'll be back!

Very cute and quiet place. Yet there is a loud and constant running train that runs behind the hotel beginning at 5am every day.
