Noisy
This was my second stay at Fleur De Lys, but I don't remember the first time being as noisy as this stay. The daily trains blew their horns every time they passed by the hotel. This made it hard to get a good night's sleep.
Also, our room was next to the stairwell, and we heard constant walking throughout the night. This will be our last stay here, but the on good thing is that it was close to Central Avenue.

From the minute we got picked up from the airport I knew it was going to be wonderful. The hotel itself, a refurbished Victorian mansion, is absolutely stunning and beautifully decorated. The amenities are excellent and the rooms are modern and spacious.

Good stay
The place was clean and nice. Our room did not have AC but had a ceiling fan, and that was enough. Breakfast is small but good.

Beautiful hotel with simple, comfortable rooms.
A beautiful hotel! The rooms aren’t anything fancy, but are comfortable and great for a short stay. There are plenty of communal areas to sit I. The rest of the hotel outside the room, and it is quite lovely out there. Nice breakfast with indoor and outdoor seating. I showed up a day early and they quickly changed the reservation and got us into a room. I would absolutely stay here again.

Lovely property, centrally located, only a few minutes walk from the Plaza de la Cultura.
Tasty breakfast.
Right by the train tracks & the trains started at 5am then frequently thereafter, so be aware of this if you are a light sleeper.

A fantastic, characterful hotel. Immaculate cleanliness, ceiling fan keeping room cool and comfortable. Friendly staff. Centrally located to explore central San Jose on foot. Breakfast: limited selection but fresh, tasty and plenty of it. Airey, spacious room with 2 double beds for a family of 4. New bathroom with a great shower. Cannot fault the place. Would definitely stay here again.

Would stay again
While the building is historic (0ld), the bathroom was updated and functioned well. The room had tile floors and was clean. The staff were very available and helpful to this English-speaking client.
The beds are not very comfortable, somewhat on the hard side. But, for the price of the hotel, it was acceptable to me.
The hotel is only about 1/2 block from Avenue 2, which makes it convenient for restaurants and shopping. Close to their national museum, and within walking distance of Central Market.

Very walkable location. Lovely buffet breakfast. Staff are nice but I had to ask for a map and tour info. Rooms come with a safe, which is nice. Great shower with soap. Clean rooms. Rooms are small but there are Lovely common areas where you can sit. The front porch is especially inviting. The hotel can be noisy about once an hour when the train passes behind it and blows its horn. But it’s quiet at night. Location is within walking distance to National Museum, Jade Museum, Gold Museum, National Theater, Artisans’ Market, Central Market, grocery stores and restaurants.
