Costa Rica’s Central Valley has much to offer visitors. The modern city of San José is stocked with traveler services and has a wide range of restaurants, shops, museums and more. Just outside of this urban atmosphere, the countryside is speckled with volcanoes, waterfalls, zoos, and rivers. Travelers can go hiking, visit coffee plantations or try out white-water rafting.
Las Orquideas Inn is set on a 10-acre (4-ha) piece of property that has lush gardens and winding nature trails. The hotel reflects the vibrancy of the tropics not only in its grounds but also in its rooms, which are colorfully painted and decorated with native artwork. The rooms are spacious, comfortable and clean. All come equipped with a private hot water bathroom, air conditioning, ceiling fan and satellite TV, as well as a telephone, hairdryer, coffee maker and safe deposit box. Some rooms have kitchens and thus allow for cooking at home, while other rooms have wonderful views of the mountains and volcanoes in the distance.
While staying at this hotel, guests can unwind with a massage at the spa or a soak in the Jacuzzi. There is a large swimming pool surrounded by lounge chairs and umbrellas that provides the perfect place to relax during the day, and a bar that serves up a variety of beers, wines and cocktails. Meals can be enjoyed at the hotel’s restaurant, which offers national, international and vegetarian cuisine. A free breakfast is served here every morning.
Guests that are traveling on business are invited to use the conference room (which can also be booked for weddings), and those needing to get to the airport can take advantage of the hotel’s 24-hour airport transport.
