Hilton Doubletree Cariari Resort

San Jose

Good to Know

Hilton Doubletree Cariari combines a convenient base near San José and Juan Santamaría International Airport with greenery, pools and several dining choices. Tennis, fitness and spa time bring a resort rhythm to the journey, while a golf course is a short walk away. Rooms, suites and event facilities suit different parties and purposes; confirm transport and golf arrangements.


Give the journey a poolside pause in Cariari

A pool surrounded by greenery gives Hilton Doubletree Cariari Resort an appealing role at the beginning or end of a Costa Rica journey. In Cariari, a short drive from San José and Juan Santamaría International Airport, the resort allows time near the city to feel like part of the vacation. You can settle into a spacious room, enjoy the grounds and give the travel day some breathing room.

Space for the journey

Modern furnishings and spacious rooms and suites give the stop a comfortable role between a flight and the next part of the journey. Compare Standard and Executive rooms with the two-bedroom Master Suite when shared living space matters to your party. A restful room helps these hours feel like a stay worth enjoying.

A resort day near the city

Swimming pools and lounge areas invite a slower afternoon, while tennis courts and a fitness center provide options when you want to keep moving. Spa treatments, massages and a sauna offer another way to unwind. The nearby Cariari Country Club Golf Course is a short walk away, a useful consideration for travelers who want to include a round of golf without moving to a separate destination.

An evening at the resort

The restaurants combine international and local cooking, with bars and lounges providing places for a cocktail or wine afterward. Dining at the resort can keep an arrival evening pleasantly simple, or become part of a leisurely day near the city.

Local excursions, meetings and celebrations

Versatile meeting spaces, technology and professional event-planning support serve conferences, weddings and celebrations. The concierge can assist with local excursions when your plans turn beyond the resort. Whether the visit combines business with leisure or marks the start of a vacation, greenery, recreation and dining give time in Cariari a resort rhythm.

What to weigh when choosing this stay

  • Convenience with time to relax: Cariari is a short drive from San José and Juan Santamaría International Airport, with a resort setting that makes an arrival or departure stop part of the vacation. Confirm transport arrangements when booking.

  • Spa time as another option: treatments, massages and a sauna provide ways to unwind after travel or an active day.
  • Several places to dine or linger: restaurants serve local and international cooking, while bars and lounges offer cocktails and wine, simplifying an evening at the resort.
  • Space for different parties: comfortable rooms and suites have different layouts, with a two-bedroom Master Suite available for travelers who need more shared living space.
  • Business or celebration facilities: versatile meeting spaces, technology and professional event-planning support accommodate conferences, weddings and gatherings, while the concierge can help with local excursions.

Fiona R.

We were there briefyl

Gerald B.

Only here one night but accommodations were great.

Andrea W.

The restaurant and service was great. The bathrooms were slightly dated but the size and space was well designed. The atmosphere of the hotel itself was lovely. I love Doubletree hotels, however, I did feel like they let me down on the freshness/softness of their cookies at this particular location.

Shirley K.

The staff were very helpful. The meals were delicious. The hotel rooms are spacious and very clean.

Michael C.

This was the fanciest hotel of our trip. It was nice to finish the adventure in such a beautiful and well-equipped facility. We certainly didn't need this level of "luxury" in the main part of the trip, but it was a nice change at the end of our journey.

Cindy M.

Juliann K.

David J.

Deborah D.

Only downside was quite a wait to check in

Linda C.

I definetely would go again to this hotel. I loved its architecture and style, the room was big and comfortable. The bathroom was modern. The pool is big and fantastic. I had dinner there at the restaurant and there was a lot of choice and it was very good. I used their transport and again the vehicule was comfortable and the drive very smooth.

Pauline L.

It was a good place to stay for an early morning flight the next day. If you are going to miss breakfast, they offer a boxed breakfast which we took, not knowing the options at the airport. There were restaurants at the airport but the prices were high. They offer a free airport shuttle - go with their recommendation to get the early shuttle - you never know when there will be delays on the roads.

Guest review

Unfortunately didn't spend enough time here to really experience all the facilities

Marlene K.

ThIs was a pleasant surprise, as we generally have low expectations of airport hotels. The desk staff were right on top of everything -- they knew we had a 5 am pick up the next morning with a pre-arranged transfer and offered to prepare ready to go breakfast boxes for us, which were ready the next morning. The balcony was a delightful surprise, open to the lush trees and birds. Restaurant was great.

Linda K.

Little noisy by the pool

Rebecca P.

Good location for waiting for flight. Close restaurants

Norbert R.

Reena P.

Sundiep P.
