Radisson Europa Hotel Review

This hotel is geared primarily to business travelers, but it's a good choice for anyone looking for a big, dependable hotel near downtown San José. Wooden headboards, angular window nooks, and other small architectural details give these rooms an edge over those in the Aurola Holiday Inn and Clarion Amón Plaza, although it's not as convenient for walking around downtown. For a modest price increase, you can opt for an executive room, which is basically a standard room with a coffeemaker, a scale, terry-cloth bathrobes, and an extra telephone in the bathroom. The junior suites come with all the above amenities, as well as a desk and chair, in-room fax machine, and small balcony. Both the executive rooms and suites have wireless Internet access. This hotel is particularly well-located if you are driving to or from the Caribbean coast, as it is set right off the main downtown entrance to the highway to Guapiles.

Facilities:
2 restaurants; bar; lounge; casino; pool; gym; tour desk; car-rental agency; full-service business center; small shopping arcade; limited room service; massage; laundry service; nonsmoking rooms

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
