We stumbled upon the Alta Hotel while on our second vacation to Costa Rica and I wish we would have found it earlier. The hotel is simply beautiful! It does not feel like you are staying in the San Jose area. I highly recommend this hotel to any traveler coming in or out of San Jose.
Alta Hotel is located approximately five miles west of the Capital city of San Jose in the upscale Escazu.
