How to find a hotel in San Jose
Downtown San José has the museums and colonial buildings but is less geared to tourists after dark; Escazú and Santa Ana to the west are calmer, greener suburbs favoured by longer-staying visitors. The dry season from December to April is both the most pleasant and the most expensive time to travel.
Best time to visit: December to April, the dry season.
