La Riviera Hotel, hotel in San Antonio

Located only 8 minutes’ drive from the Juan Santamaria International Airport, this executive hotel offers free Wi-Fi access throughout and sun terraces around the outdoor pool.

They were definitely the most pet friendly hotel so far which was great. It was very convenient having the restaurant right there and willing to deliver food to your room. The breakfast was very tasty. The shuttle was punctual and helpful with getting us to the airport for our flight.

    Cute little town near the airport.

    Cute little town near the airport. Probably not a destination, but, if you have a night to kill before flying out, it's fine. Otherwise, there isn't anything I know of to draw visitors. Couple cute restaurants on the main street. Felt safe walking around after dark.

    We did more in San Antonio than we expected to do.

    We did more in San Antonio than we expected to do. The church in the center of town was welcoming, and there are a lot of restaurants with good food and service. The bussing to other areas (San Jose and Heredia) is well marked and has an appropriate schedule. Plus, the area felt safe to walk after sunset. Because of its convivence, we extended our hotel stay to stay in the area, and only bussed to San Jose for the day.

    For us La Rivera is a take off and arrival point, so the easy airport access is important. It is an easy walk to a phone store or Pali supermarket for some basics, and the local pista, church and park give you a safe introduction to Costa Rica. There is not much else to do in the immediate area.

    This hotel was a gem! The photos did not do it justice. We booked it for our last night in Costa Rica and enjoyed it greatly. The surroundings and decor were tasteful. My husband also enjoyed a dip in the pool. A big thank you to the staff members as they were exceptionally nice and helpful - I don't like coriander and the staff members did everything to make sure I would have no coriander in my food. If we go back to Costa Rica we will book a longer stay in this hotel as they also organise wildlife trips.

    The lady checking us in was very friendly and helpful. She was also very kind to let us check into our room early. She also made sure to show us the room and made sure that everything was clean and working well inside. The room was also a great size and it included a full kitchen with appliances. That was a nice bonus. There is also an excellent local restaurant right across the street from the hotel, which was very convenient.

    Had to leave at 03.00 so no breakfast, but porter made us a coffee whilst we waited for taxi. The hotel had an old-world feel - was spacious and the room was comfortable and clean. There was a decent-sized pool which we didn't have time to use. We had dinner almost immediately after arrival which was tasty and plentiful. The staff were friendly and obliging.

    The hotel has beautiful gardens and a lovely restaurant and bar. We only stayed one night after a long flight from Europe so we didn’t eat in the restaurant, just enjoyed a couple of drinks before an early night. However breakfast was served on the terrace of the restaurant and that was excellent. The staff at the hotel were all really pleasant.

    Felt very safe and looked after. As a 53 year old solo traveller this meant a lot to me. Staff were lovely Maura collected me from airport at home midnight and 15 mins we were at the hotel. Esteban on reception was very nice as were staff in the restaurant which had excellent food. Pool area was lovely as was the whole hotel.

    Rachel the receptionist was just wonderful and the rooms were large and very well cleaned. In terms of proximity to the airport the hotel works - a short taxi ride. The hotel has a lovely pool and everything it needs to be a really great choice - yet I wouldn't choose it a second time.

    Good location close to the airport, but not just a typical airport hotel. Good size rooms, super clean and friendly helpful staff. Decent complimentary breakfast too. We met an expat couple who always use this hotel when travelling in and out of the country and we could see why

    The hotel is close to the airport. It has unlimited water and coffee at the reception. The staff is kind and helpful. I would suggestion learning some Spanish words here. The private room is quite big and has everything you may need as well as ventilation.

    The hotel is simple but very comfortable and the location is great for the airport. The staff helped us return our hire car and the airport transfer worked well. The rooms are simple but comfortable. The onsite restaurant is great!

    1. The restaurant was very good, and there was also an excellent bakery immediately adjacent to the restaurant. 2. An adorable, friendly cat named "Sol" was at the reception area. 3. The hotel is very close to the airport.

    Great hotel after arriving from a long flight into Costa Rica. Only stayed one night, but was perfect to get over the jet lag. Restaurant was great and offered lovely food and breakfast.

    The staff, grounds and restaurant of the hotel is wonderful. As is the proximity to the airport. Unfortunately, we found the bedrooms and hallways stuffy and dated a little bit.
