Nice location

Stayed in August 2025

One of the main reasons for staying in this hotel was the free airport shuttle. Unfortunately on our way to the airport the shuttle did not show up and we ended up having to get pay for Ubers.

This hotel is 15 minutes from the airport, which was the reason for choosing it on our way in and out of Costa Rica. The hotel grounds are very nice and it has a small pool that was sufficient for the kids. The restaurant food is very good, especially the breakfast, even though the ordering always seemed a bit chaotic. The rooms are modest but clean, and the service was good.

The airport shuttle was extremely convenient. I was picked up and dropped off the next morning right on time. It was easy to communicate with WhatsApp and the staff was welcoming and warm.

A friendly atmosphere close to the Airport and with an excellent little restaurant. Super staff. Not fancy and a bit dated but clean and functional.

Great location relatively close to the airport and car rental but local vibe, and a very good restaurant.

Location is great for the airport and the free airport shuttle bus is a real bonus. The restaurant on-site is also really helpful , as there’s not much else in that area.

Rooms are small, but fine for short stays.

Great location near the airport, but not too close. Supermarket across the street which came in super handy. The restaurants, surprisingly tasty and good value.

Sweet staff, very helpful, easy communication. Breakfast was basic but good. We slept here for 1 night so we didn’t use a lot of facilities like the pool.

There was some noise from the neighbourhood surroundings but this is to be expected at a hotel like this which will have guests coming and going from the airport.

We booked a night here before our flight that was in the evening the following day so had plenty of time to take in the whole hotel and local area. The staff at the hotel and restaurant were super friendly and it made the atmosphere at the hotel very enjoyable. The pool area was kept neat and clean and there are plenty of places to relax. Our room was nice and clean, the shower was excellent and bed comfortable. The breakfast was really tasty and overall it's really good value for money, we were super happy that we could get a shuttle to the airport. We would stay here again.

Clean and comfortable

The room decor isnt very cosy (plain and dark) and the pool was small and cold. Only stay here for before or after a flight- there's nothing to do in the area. Unfortunately couldn't have the included breakfast as our flight was very early. Would have been great to have a simple packed breakfast as an alternative airport option.

Straight forward transfer to the airport at 4am (the minibus leaves every hour throughout the day). The hotel restaurant food was tasty and had good prices. There's a very convenient large supermarket across the road.

La Riviera is a perfect place to stay for access to the airport. It is comfortable, has a pool and really nice restaurant, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We appreciated the free airport shuttle bus too. Would recommend as a peaceful, secure stopover.

There was nothing I didn't like

It was a short distance from the airport for an overnight stay. there was a store across the street. And breakfast was provided at the hotel.

No issues to mention

We stayed at this hotel for one night at the beginning and end of our trip to Costa Rica, and it was a great choice. Conveniently located just a 10-minute drive from Juan Santamaría International Airport, the hotel offers a reliable and complimentary airport shuttle service. There's also a supermarket right across the street - perfect for grabbing snacks or essentials before heading out for the day. The breakfast selection was great, with options ranging from traditional Costa Rican gallo pinto to continental choices and fresh fruit daily. The on-site Italian restaurant was also really good with a pleasant ambience. Our room was clean, air-conditioned, and comfortable, and the staff were friendly and always happy to help. Overall, a very pleasant and convenient stay that we’d happily recommend!
