Luxury Hotels in Escazu

Just west of San José, Escazú offers a polished and modern counterpoint to Costa Rica's famed rainforests and beaches. This is the country's financial heart, where sleek office towers rise against a backdrop of green mountains. The main draw is its sophisticated urban lifestyle, centered around the upscale Avenida Escazú mall and the gourmet restaurants of San Rafael. For a touch of local tradition, visit the historic San Miguel Church or explore the original adobe houses in the old Escazú Centro district.

The area is ideal for business travelers and visitors who prefer city comforts with easy access to nature. It's also very family-friendly, with safe, walkable neighborhoods and plenty of dining options. Staying in San Rafael or near Multiplaza mall puts you at the center of the action. While renting a car is convenient, Uber is widely used, and the city is well-connected to Juan Santamaría International Airport, about a 25-minute drive away.

Accommodation here is dominated by international business hotels and contemporary boutique properties. On HOTEVI, you'll find options like the Costa Rica Marriott Hotel Hacienda Belen, the stylish Studio Hotel, and the all-inclusive Wyndham San José Herradura. For a more intimate stay, consider the Hotel Alta or the charming Posada de las Brujas, while the Holiday Inn San José - Escazú offers reliable, modern comfort.
