Fleur De Lys Hotel, San Jose

The Fleur de Lys is a whimsical hotel with old world charm. The staff is friendly and go out of their way to assist. I arrived Friday afternoon and was helped by the front desk agent. I forget his name but he was quite helpful. He showed me how to get to downtown area by map and then when I asked about making tour reservations after the tours dept was closed he called the office to get information. This hotel is beautiful inside, I had the opportunity to peak inside some of the larger rooms. One had a jacuzzi tub. The hotel has lots of natural light because of the skylights above. It also unique because of the staircases. Each room is named of a flower. My room was cozy and had a terrace that overlooked downtown San Jose. There is no air conditoning in the hotel but the night air was comfortable. Saturday morning I was awakened by construction but this is of no fault of the hotel. Friday evening I sat on the patio listening to the permormance of a guitar player and singer. It was entertaining. Plus the drinks at the bar are cheap. I believe the margarita's were only 1500 colones each. If I am ever in San Jose I will stay at the Fleur De Lys.
