A great choice to visit.
I had a delightful stay in early December. Although Air Canada was late arriving, the hotel taxi was there to meet me— and 2 gentlemen ere out on the sidewalk to welcome me. Fabian, desk manager, was hospitable and most helpful. Strangely the food servers were very distant. & cool. Breakfasts were delicious. English pub menu was dull— Spanish lunch menu was a hit with locals. Talented chefs.

I loved this hotel! The staff were great, the property was nice and it was a beautiful hotel. The area around the hotel became unsafe after dark. I was glad that there were security persons and video cameras. The food was good and I loved the bar, too. It's not the hotel's fault that the area is unsafe after dark.

Charming hotel converted from two former mansions. Easily accessible to downtown San José and the Avenida Central, yet away from the noise, bustle, and traffic. Very nice, helpful staff. The personalized free breakfast is excellent and includes delicious local papaya & pineapple. I requested the pickup service from SJO for $35 and was met outside of customs by my private driver. I appreciated this safe, hassle-free way to get to Hotel Dunn Inn. Dinner and drinks are available in the large, airy dining room & bar. A peaceful respite after a day exploring the capital city and its parks, markets, and museums.

The hotel itself is fine, but we booked on the basis of it having a bar and restaurant open. On both nights we were there, neither was open. The area was riddled with sexworkers on every corner after dark, attracted by the busy and loud casino across the road. Would not book again.
