Hotel Fleur de Lys

Victorian character in San Jose

Costa Rican artwork and tropical gardens in the atrium bring color and life to Hotel Fleur de Lys, a Victorian-style mansion converted into a small hotel in San Jose's cultural district. Even the room names share that connection to place, taking inspiration from native flowers rather than a sequence of numbers. Helpful, friendly staff add to the welcoming small-hotel character.

A mansion with its own personality

Victorian decoration carries into the bedrooms, making the architecture part of the stay as well as the city's story. Spend time in the calm surroundings, with a restaurant, bar and internet close at hand when you return from exploring. Choose Fleur de Lys when cultural atmosphere and a hotel with an individual character matter to the visit.

A coffee plantation tour or an outing around Irazu Volcano can add countryside to your time in San Jose. Ziplining, mountain biking and tram tours are other regional possibilities. These active days need not change the rhythm of the hotel: come back to its quieter mansion setting after choosing the excursion that fits your interests.

Choose outdoor space and the sleeping arrangement

Breakfast is included with Suite Quadriple, Standard Twin, Standard Superior Twin and Master Suite with Jacuzzi Triple accommodation. All four provide television, wireless internet, telephone, a fan and shower. Suite Quadriple, Standard Twin and Standard Superior Twin also have hair dryers. Suite Quadriple and Standard Superior Twin add a balcony or private patio; Suite Quadriple also has a minibar. Standard Twin keeps the arrangement simpler, with the familiar room comforts and morning meal.

The Master Suite with Jacuzzi Triple has a private Jacuzzi and spacious bathroom, as well as a desk, minibar and safe. Its second bed is a sofa bed, so consider the sleeping arrangement before choosing it for your party. The hotel's appeal is a calm cultural stay rather than luxury-resort living; families traveling with small children may prefer another hotel.
