Hotels With Gym in Alajuela, Costa Rica

This hotel is a solid option by the San Jose, Costa Rica airport. We stayed here on the first and last nights of our vacation. The pros of this hotel are definitely the shuttle to and from the airport (runs 24/7 though we had to wait almost 45 minutes for the shuttle), the free breakfast and the proximity to the airport. The beds, however, are incredibly hard and springy. I slept in the bed with my teenager and every time he moved, the whole bed shook. The air conditioning is loud and the appointments are super basic. It was clean and I would stay here again, but be warned the beds are uncomfortable.

Good reception, availability, despite a short stay everything was there for us to feel good. We will come back with pleasure.

If you’re arriving late at San Jose Airport and have an early flight in the morning, I would without a doubt stay here again. The complementary shuttle service that runs every 30min is so convenient and the location is excellent with a Walmart right across the street for your last minute necessities. The staff is super friendly, the bed is comfy and the rooms are clean. The shower pressure is quite low though but apart from that there’s nothing I can think of. Taking into account the time of the year the room cost more than I wanted to spend, but given the overall convenience and experience all in all it was worth it and I’m looking forward to staying here again when I fly out from San José.

The hotel is next to the airport. There is a shuttle that oicks you up and takes you there every 30 minutes; they should make it every 15 minutes being so close. There is a Walmart next to the hotel and 3 restaurants in fron of the lobby: peruvian, argentinian and costa rican. The gym had everything and breakfast was ok, but not great.

The Royal Corin was one of the best resorts we have stayed at. From the start, they were very communicative via email to confirm the reservation and make arrangements. Within a day of arrival, everyone knew our names and treated us like family. We made mention of celebrating a birthday, and the staff went over the top with making the week special. The resort was beautiful, hot springs were relaxing, and it was a very intimate feel. The breakfast was exceptional. The spa services were excellent, and location wise, everything in town was very close. We took advantage of the tours and private transportation, and it was effortless. We would recommend to everyone!

Ghost hotel, huge grounds but with minimal number of guests. Furniture and room, bathroom were very outdated. Smelled funny inside. Cleaning staff left cleaning supplies in the bathroom by accident. One of the bedrooms had no window and the lighting in the whole apartment was very dark. Air conditioning worked well. The rooms are large and comfortable however my mattress was lopsided and I kept falling off the bed all night. No shampoo or soap provided and shower had some animal poop. The restaurant staff was ok but not the friendliest. Minimal vegan options at the restaurants. Breakfast was also not the best. Rice and beans had minimal flavor, fruit was good but for a vegan not many other options such as bread or avocado. The pool looked great but didn’t have much shade provided with umbrellas or trees. The gym was closed. Would not stay here again as it didn’t feel very vacation like.

I appreciated that the room was spotlessly clean, with all sorts of amenities. The staff was very proactive and helpful, and the location right across from the airport was the main reason I chose it. The problem, though, is that our room (#135) had no window curtains to block out light. All it had was a flimsy screen that you could easily see through. I imagine anyone passing by the first floor room would have been able to see inside the room, because it was easy to see outside through the screen. At night-which comes very early in the tropics-the light from eight powerfully bright lights in the parking lot lit up our room. There was no way to darken the room, the light was so bright you could have read by it. None. Hence I got NO sleep because the room was lit up. Please, put up black out curtains.

El Silencio Del Campo is a gem of place! The landscaping, pool and hot springs are stunning, and the staff is extremely courteous, friendly and helpful. The farm animals and birds on the property add to the charm of this place. Every morning they have activities such as milking the cows, and collecting chicken eggs which are both educational and fun for young kids. For us, the highlight was relaxing in the hot springs each evening after a busy day, especially after a rain shower had cooled things down!! Couple of areas where they could do better: food and casita interiors. The daily breakfast is okay, but not great - simple things like a toast or an omelette aren’t done well. We even tried dinner one day and were disappointed. As for the accommodation interiors, you can see that they’re old and the wear & tear is starting to show. A refresh/update would help. That said, we highly recommend this place for the serene and charming vibe that allows you to connect with nature!

This is a magical resort with amazing staff. We were welcomed with open arms and Diego made the check in super easy. Once we got to the room there was the coolest surprise waiting since it was my 50th birthday! The treehouse was literally like living alone in the jungle but with all the facilities you could want near by. Every morning we saw green cheeked parakeets from our window, toucans and lots of other endemic birds. The staff set up all of the tours we wanted to do including transportation. And when we had to be picked up early they always accommodated us for a huge breakfast! Jimmy was one of our new buddies as he helped with breakfast in the morning and also took us on a night tour where we saw a kinkajou, spectacle owl, and lots of frogs . He was super knowledgeable about the flora and fauna and it was an amazing tour. For dinner, the food was out of this world!!! If I could rate it a 10 I would!! A huge thank you to the entire staff . Hopefully we will be back one day!

We stayed there for one night before flying back home, since our flight was early in the morning. The hotel is quite nice, some pieces are outdated, but still in good condition. The area is very quiet and well maintained. The staff at the reception is very friendly and helpful. That includes the cat who may walk with you to your room ;) Plenty of parking space. The rooms are different from other hotels, lots of wood, even wooden floors. I loved it, better feeling than ceramic tiles and plain white walls. The beds are comfortable and large. The bathrooms are a bit old but everything works and everything is spotless. The only thing I would mention is that there are no fridges and coffee makers in the room. You can actually ask for the coffee maker. But for the fridge - you will have to get some ice (near the pool table). Please note that this review does not cover the steak house, only the hotel.

My husband and I booked an impulsive last minute stay here when we needed to overnight while in the San Jose area. We knew we didn't want to stay in San Jose and after a little searching this beautiful mountain area sounded right up our alley. We were so glad we chose this place! The lodge is really stunning and has Welsh influences as well as Frank Lloyd Wright influences in the design. A bit of modern meets old school and it really creates a cozy and welcoming environment. Our room had a fireplace and a private garden area that was so lovely (and it gets chilly at night in this region so we definitely enjoyed using the fireplace! Though there was a heater available for use as well). It was a really cozy and inviting space. The bed was extremely comfortable and the linens, too. My husband particularly loved the spacious bathroom with the incredible rain shower. We enjoyed dinner as well as breakfast in the dining room and both were outstanding. The steak was like butter! And it would be a shame to miss out on their homemade granola and jam. We arrived at night so we discovered the grounds are utterly beautiful on the morning of our stay. Definitely make time to hike one of the trails (they have maps in each room) and visit the pretty little greenhouse on the property. We were gasping over the beauty of the farmland where this hotel sits and hopeful that we'll return for another stay in the future. Truly a beautiful and comfortable stay.

The Royal Corin was one of the best resorts we have stayed at. From the start, they were very communicative via email to confirm the reservation and make arrangements. Within a day of arrival, everyone knew our names and treated us like family. We made mention of celebrating a birthday, and the staff went over the top with making the week special.

The spa services were excellent, and location wise, everything in town was very close. We took advantage of the tours and private transportation, and it was effortless.

Good stopover hotel. It is larger than expected. Great surroundings.

From the time that we arrived, we were impressed. The coffee is strong and flavorful. We arrived to a welcome basket on our bed and in our fridge for our anniversary celebration! The view of Arenal was amazing— from our bed! (suite 215) The included breakfast is phenomenal— so much to choose from. My fave is the made-to-order omelet station! We did not have Lunch on property because we were out exploring Arenal/La Fortuna region. We did have pizza at the poolside wood-fired pizza oven bar. They made a custom pizza with chicken, basil, olive oil, and tomatoes. That was the bomb! 💣 Service is spot on. The grounds are kept in immaculate condition— Gardening is exceptionally beautiful everywhere you look! October is the perfect time in my opinion to visit if you want low crowds – – we had the thermal pools (7-8 pools) mostly to ourselves. We visited eight properties while in Costa Rica and this one was our absolute favorite! Hands down— pun may be intended. 😉

What can I say, this is the best hotel we have ever stayed in and we have been to Four Seasons and Belmont hotels before and this beats them hands down. The quality of everything is top notch. We stayed in a rainforest villa with plunge pool and the room was massive, double showers inside and out, queen bed and plenty of storage space, we were completely unoverlooked. But what really makes this hotel special is the staff. The attitude of every member of staff we encountered was most definitely “can do”. They were all so courteous and cheerful which was so nice to see. Everybody told us their names although we can’t remember them. We cannot praise this hotel highly enough. Would we return? It’s a resounding yes from us. They you to everybody who made this a very special stay for us.

On a tour of Costa Rica with Gate1 travel we spent two days and nights here. WISH IT WAS MORE ! Instead of a typical hotel this resort features a restaurant, a shop for all kinds of things, several natural hot spa tubs, a pool with a swim up bar and more. No hotel here but quaint, beautiful separate cabins with an unbelievable view of Arenal Volcano. Everyone here is SO kind and helpful. My favorite was the crew at the pool bar of Roy, Victor and Dailyn. No matter has busy, they kept everyone served. If you are here ask Victor to show his juggling skills! Really a wonderful stay … unexpected and memorable !

We had an absolutely unforgettable stay at The Springs Resort in August 2024. If you’re considering whether to stay here, don’t hesitate – this resort is a true paradise. Surrounded by stunning natural beauty, relaxing hot springs pools, and breathtaking views of the volcano, everything was simply perfect. The staff were exceptionally friendly and accommodating, enhancing our experience. The breakfast area offered spectacular views, and the service at the main pool bar was excellent. One of the highlights of our stay was the horseback riding experience at their Activities Center. It was truly magical! Our guide led us through enchanting paths where we encountered various animals and birds we had never seen before. Costa Rican nature is truly magnificent, and The Springs is the perfect place to explore and enjoy it.

I stayed in this hotel for 3 nights as part of a trip with GAdventures booked through trail finders in the UK. We were checked in to what I think must have been the worst room in the hotel. It was at the back and over looked a side alley. We quickly showered and went to meet our group for dinner. When we got back, we noticed this god- damn awful smell which was coming from the drains and the water hadn't drained from our shower a few hrs earlier. Drains are notoriously bad across CR. We went to reception and the guy couldn't have cared less. We insisted he come and smell for himself. Well, he just couldn't have been more patronising or belittling. He said he couldn't smell it, he accused us of 'just showering' when we showed him the water and refused to do anything ie is clear the smell or move us. He said quite clearly numerous times, the hotel was full. We were left with no choice than to contact our Rep. Strangley enough we were given a different and much better room immediately. When we left, a lady came to our bus, thanked us for our custom and said they are a family run hotel. Clearly explained why the chap on reception couldn't give a hoot - he was hardly going to be sacked! Young ish guy, curly hair tied back in a pony tail. Poor Ester who came to say goodbye has no idea. He best things about this hotel are the friendly staff in the bar below, the view of the volcano from the terrace, and its only a shirt walk from the best place to eat in town- the rainforest cafe opposite (and Andreas is the best server!) but apart from that, I'd avoid it at all costs

We spent 3 nights at this resort, which began our Costa Rica adventure. Upon arrival, we were given a complimentary upgrade to a junior suite! The room was large with refrigerator, balcony, sitting area, and a large bathroom (separate bathtub & shower). The hot springs were a welcome relaxation after days of hiking. The resort was an easy drive into La Fortuna. The staff was great - a wonderful beginning to our vacation!

Hotel with a pleasant location, a rustic room, would expect more in relation to the cost of the hotel.Weak restaurant, breakfast too.For those who like healthy eating, few options. The breakfast is served at the table, but with few boys to meet demand, service is bad and delayed.
