Hotel Continental

About

For a hotel in Costa Rica, Hotel Continental sits frente Centro Comercial, MultiPlaza Escazú in San José Province, placing guests beside one of the city's main shopping and dining complexes rather than a beach. The property works as a city hotel for travellers who want San José's commercial district on the doorstep, with the Pacific surf towns of Jacó and Manuel Antonio reachable on day trips. Guests staying here can expect a full-service hotel base with 5 photos on file and a website at ihg.com for booking details. Its 4.6 out of 5 average, drawn from 5,555 guest reviews, reflects consistently strong feedback for an urban property of this size in the capital. San José Province puts the hotel within reach of Tamarindo, Santa Teresa, Puerto Viejo, La Fortuna and Monteverde for travellers building an itinerary around the country. Costa Rica's tropical climate means the dry season generally runs December to April, the most comfortable window for exploring. Spanish is the main language, and Central American cooking leans on fresh seafood and tropical fruit. Flights and ferries from the mainland connect the islands, so a stay here can combine city time with coastal or island excursions.
