I had a pleasant stay at Irazu Hotel & Studios. The hotel is lovely and well-maintained, offering a clean environment and friendly staff. However, some aspects felt dated, impacting the overall experience a bit. Though the location was convenient for reaching the airport, I found the dining options could be improved.
Rooms

The room I stayed in had a nice view of the pool and the beautifully groomed lawn, though it was somewhat dated. The air conditioning was tricky, with only extremes between cold and warm. I noticed the carpets and overall decor felt old.

The hotel is conveniently located about 15 minutes from the airport, making transportation easy. However, it's not in a vibrant area, and there aren't many nice restaurants nearby.

Breakfast was included, but the quality was mediocre at best. The buffet offered some basic options, though many dishes could benefit from improvement.
Facilities

The hotel features a pool, hot tub, and a tennis court, which were nice amenities. A rental car agency is also available on-site. However, finding the way around the hotel can be a bit tricky due to its layout.

I recently stayed at Irazu Hotel & Studios and overall had a pleasant experience. The staff was incredibly welcoming and my room was cleaned impeccably every day, thanks to Evelyn Z. However, I did find the dining options somewhat lacking, especially the breakfast selection, which could use some more variety. I appreciate the convenient location near downtown San Jose, even if it wasn't the quietest spot.

I had a mixed experience at Irazu Hotel & Studios. On the one hand, the staff were super friendly and accommodating, which made me feel right at home. However, my room was quite basic and not as clean as I expected, with some maintenance issues that detracted from my stay.
Rooms

I found my room to be adequate but basic. The bed was comfortable, but the bathroom wasn't nice, and overall the room felt dated. I didn't appreciate that the room wasn't as clean as I'd hoped, especially the carpet and bathroom fixtures.
Service

The staff were genuinely nice and always willing to help, making a positive difference in my experience. However, I did have a frustrating encounter with the night manager who seemed dismissive of my concerns, which left a sour taste.
Location
6.0
The location was decent, not far from downtown San Jose and had easy access to an airport shuttle. I felt it was a bit disconnected from nice restaurants, which made meal options limited besides the attached Denny's.
Dining
6.0
I enjoyed the breakfast at the hotel, but it could have had more variety. The Denny's next door was a reliable option for meals, but I was hoping for something a bit more upscale.
Facilities
6.0
The hotel has some nice features like the pool area and hanging chairs, which I appreciated. However, the overall maintenance of the facilities, like the older windows letting sounds in, could use some improvement.

The hotel’s location is convenient for accessing local shops and eateries. yet the entrance was tricky to find and not the most appealing due to being in a parking lot.

The facilities like the jacuzzi and shuttle service were nice to have, but I did face some issues with the airport shuttle organization. and there were inquiries about getting a microwave that took too long.

My stay at Irazu Hotel & Studios had its ups and downs. While the service was friendly and the location was convenient, I found the rooms quite outdated and uncomfortable, with a persistent bad smell and low water pressure in the shower. Although the breakfast was decent, I felt that for the price, the experience was not as satisfying as I had hoped.
Rooms
5.0
The room had a nice view of the pool, but it was fitted with very old windows that allowed noise to easily enter. The air conditioning worked well, and the towels were soft, but I encountered unpleasant odors during my stay.

Breakfast offered a variety of fruits and dishes. However, I was disappointed to find that the 'free breakfast' was billed separately, which felt misleading.

The hotel shares facilities with the Holiday Inn, including a nice pool and a jacuzzi. However, amenities like shampoo and soap were not replaced daily during my stay, which was a bit inconvenient.
