An outdoor pool, a sauna, and a garden-view restaurant form the center of Radisson San Jose Hotel. This 210-room hotel sits in San Jose, Costa Rica, a five-minute drive from both the Children's Museum and the National Theater.

Juan Santamaria International Airport is 11.7 miles (18.8 kilometers) away, while Tobías Bolaños International Airport sits 6.4 miles (10.4 kilometers) from the hotel. Surcharge shuttles run to local destinations, including shopping centers, nearby beaches, cruise terminals, and the airport. Mercado Central sits 0.8 miles (1.3 kilometers) away, the Spirogyra Butterfly Garden is 0.6 miles (1 kilometer) distant, and Simon Bolivar Zoo is 1 mile (1.5 kilometers) off.

Acuarelas Restaurant serves international cuisine alongside views of the garden. A free daily buffet breakfast runs from 6:00 AM until 10:00 AM, complemented by a bar and lounge alongside limited-hours room service.

On-site recreation centers around an outdoor swimming pool equipped with sun loungers and an adjoining children's pool. A steam room and a sauna provide thermal options, accompanied by scheduled fitness and yoga classes. Event space totals 1,033 square feet (96 square meters) across a conference center and meeting rooms.

Guests consistently praise the large room sizes, quality beds, and varied breakfast options. Multiple reviewers also highlight the helpful service provided by the restaurant and on-site staff. A recurring observation among several reviewers is that the building and its facilities feel dated and would benefit from general updates.
