Hotel Grano De Oro

Summary

Situated on a shady street just off Paseo Colón, San José's main thoroughfare, Hotel Grano de Oro is a beautifully converted Victorian mansion.

The 35 rooms are furnished in an old fashioned style with wrought-iron beds and rich damask fabrics in three jewelled colour schemes - navy, burgundy and forest-green. The art and furnishings are handcrafted by Costa Rican artists and no two rooms are alike.

Location

San Jose, Costa Rica

Best time to go

Costa Rica experiences two distinct seasons- a wet season, which lasts from May to mid-November, and a dry season, which lasts from mid-November to April. In any given region, however, the weather is dictated not only by the season, but by elevation and proximity to the sea.
