This heritage hotel is located just off Paseo Colon, San José’s main thoroughfare. Wonderfully hidden and yet within walking distance to the bustling downtown. And you are only a 25-minute drive from Juan Santamaria International Airport.

Grano de Oro Heritage is a 100-year-old converted family home, and it shows. Spending time in the suites and luxury guest rooms will transport you back to Old San José with rich mahogany details, handmade tiles and sumptuous bedding. The tropical surroundings and exquisite antiques spill into all the nooks and corners of this magnificent heritage building. Any stay here, no matter the length, is a memorable affair. 

Restaurante Grano de Oro is a fine-dining restaurant where you’ll enjoy distinct dining experiences in the elegant inner Courtyard and grand Dining Room with an ambience that is unforgettable. The menus offer a combination of seasonal, tropical, sustainable ingredients prepared with French Mediterranean techniques creating a unique and flavourful dining experience. In house aged Costa Rican beef features prominently on the menu, while sustainably caught seafood dishes favour the season. The hotel's award-winning Wine Cellar, houses up to 2000 bottles and 185 labels, all hand-chosen to complement the menus.
