Situated 23 km from Poas National Park, Pura Vida Hotel offers 4-star accommodation in Alajuela City and has a garden. Boasting free shuttle service, this property also welcomes guests with a restaurant and a sun terrace. There is free private parking and the property features paid airport shuttle service. Great place to stay after a long journey, travelling from the UK. We arrived very late but were warmly welcomed. In the morning we had a lovely breakfast in the beautiful garden. Thoroughly recommend, especially if you're looking for peace and quiet not too far from the airport. Extra bonus: our car hire company (Wild Rider) delivered to Pura Vida, making for a very easy departure.

Offering an outdoor pool, Hotel La Guaria Inn & Suites is located in Alajuela, just a 5-minute drive from Juan Santamaría International Airport. Free WiFi access, free buffet breakfast, and one free airport shuttle trip or one free parking during stay for all reservations. The staff, location, airport shuttle and pool were excellent. The breakfast was basic but lovely. I am a smoker and was pleased they supplied a designated smoking area. I had an early flight and had to leave at 6am so the breakfast was set up early. The wifi was great and the rooms were clean and comfortable. The park, shops and restaurants are close by.
