Beneath volcanic peaks, San José's National Theatre stands as a gilded testament to coffee wealth, hosting performances in surroundings rivalling European opera houses. The Gold Museum displays pre-Columbian treasures glittering mysteriously underground. Central Market's labyrinthine aisles offer everything from medicinal herbs to fresh tortillas, where locals debate politics over tiny cups of world-class coffee. The Jade Museum houses the Americas' largest collection of the precious stone, while the National Museum occupies a former military fortress with civil war bullet holes. Plaza de la Cultura pulses with street performers and chess players, perfect for people-watching before exploring the nearby Spirogyra Butterfly Garden.

Hotel Grano de Oro

Hotel Grano de Oro

8/10 Good
"The Room with the patio was spacious. The bathroom was clean and the shower was very good, with good pressure and hot water. Breakfast was served from 7 am and everything was delicious. The Breakfast was served in a beautiful 'courtyard'. Room service was always delivered very quickly. Service was top-notch. As a Expedia Gold member I got a complimenary bottle of wine and a nicely stocked mini fridge with juice, sodas and snacks."
