Irazu Hotel & Studios

The exteriors and the pool are nice but the rooms are very old and the smell was very bad inside, i think maybe because the carpet looks also old and dirty. I had to change from the first room because of that and the second one wasn't much better. The breakfast is buffet but very basic with a few options so i just got it one day. The a/c very old and noisy during the night.

Gym and swimming pool was amazing however do expect that while the room was big, it was a bit old but I think they are upgrading in process. Located just behind holiday inn which made it easy for pick up/drop off and there’s food choices and a supermarket right outside which was good.

There was NO hot water!!! This property was very run down. It previously was a Best Western and then Holiday Inn. It now shares the building and facilities (to some extent) with the Holiday Inn on site. It may cost a little more but you are best reserving a room at the Holiday Inn. The older building with rooms that face the pool and Holiday Inn rooms are now a different hotel (Irazu Hotel and Studios).

Clean room and friendly staff. Share the same garden / pool with the nearby Holiday Inn. 5 min walk to the grocery. Our main complain is that there should be a swipe-in door before accessing rooms to stop non-customers & (lots of) mosquitos!

Such a beautiful facility! It was beautifully designed, clean and very safe! I did not particularly care for the hotel's breakfast options, but the Dennys next door for absolutely amazing!!! There's also a sports bar connected to the hotel that serves very good lunch and dinner! I will definitely be returning in the future.

This was the worst hotel ive ever stayed at in CR. The sign is a banner on a fence making it hard to find. once in the parking lot there is no signage to where the lobby is. out of all my trips to CR ive never been asked for every persons passport at checkin. we had a group of 22 and everyone had to pull their passports out, they wrote down names and # for each guest which i wasnt very comfortable with. they finally give us our keys, the rooms were dirty and dark. our balcony door did not close! we had to rig it to close it because bugs were flying in. we asked for more towels since they only left us 2 and they came in while we were picking up dinner downstairs but my son was in the shower. he heard the door open thought it was us and after several minutes a guy knocked on the bathroom door!!! my son was completely freaked out especially since the guy didnt even leave right away, he still waited a few minutes inside the room!!! my sister was given someone else's room and when the key didnt work she went back to the front desk only to have them escort her back insisting she wasnt using the key card correctly, as he was trying to force his way into the room that had the safety pin on a gentleman who was sleeping in his room appeared, very startled that someone was trying to get in his room. my sister was embarassed and apologized for their mistake. how does a hotel make a mistake like that?! how do you not know what rooms are occupied? never again, please stay anywhere else!

The room was super quiet, the staff was very kind and it was very convenient (several dining options near by)

This hotel is old! The room we stayed had a moldy smell, internet was spotty, furniture is old and the bed was super uncomfortable. Only upside is that the room had a patio area overlooking the swimming pool. This hotel is a 2 star at best.

Very friendly employees. Need some maintenance. Swimming pool was dirty.
