Serene Oasis in the hills above the city.

We like being up in the cool quiet hills above the chaos of the city. Continental Breakfast was lovely. Airport was 20 minutes away. (More if road construction.. which we ran into.)

Great room, convenient near the airport.

Very nice grounds with garden which the room overlooked. The staff was very accommodating and brings breakfast to your room. It was simple but delicious and eating it on the porch overlooking the garden was beautiful!

We wish they had a pool!

We loved staying at Hotel Pibi Boreal, so much so we stayed there at the beginning and end of our holiday. It is a great location, close to the airport but at the same time in the countryside. Breakfast was lovely and the rooms comfy and clean. We would highly recommend staying here.

Great service and lovely breakfast looking at the forest.

A great experience. Kept in touch with us via whatsapp. Were incredibly helpful when our flight was late and we thought we'd be unable to pick up our car rental.......were ready to arrange taxis/transport though it wasn't needed in the end. Such great customer service. Breakfast was great and the owners did absolutely everything to be helpful. A great start to our trip to Costa Rica and we will stay with them on the night before we fly out.

Everything was great. I love the deck and having breakfast out there in the morning. After breakfast, we took a walk on a trail on the grounds of the hotel and saw lots of birds and butterflies.

Check out is 10 but Matthieu was very accommodating about it because of our flight was at 4:50 pm.

A place to stay if you need to be close to reality, and far away from the craziness of the world.

With a 15 minute drive distance from San Jose airport, this is a great place to be! I can't overestimate how much I liked Pibi Boreal, and the staff. The owners are super nice, helpful, caring and would serve with any information you might need. Talking to both of them is an extra treat as they know surroundings very well. This is a very intimate hotel with 5 rooms only, a large garden to walk around, thousands of butterflies and birds, as well as an unobscured view of the rainforest, which basically comes into your place. Breakfast is served to your room, and you can have it sitting on the terrace, watching the nature around you. Rooms are of a decent size, I really liked a bathroom. It is very clean. But first and most of all - the owners make this place so special! Thank you!

Nothing comes to my mind, truly.

one of my best stay from Booking.com

all was perfect

I recently stayed at a wonderful bed and breakfast with spacious rooms and friendly owners. The highlight of my stay was the delicious breakfast and the beautiful view from my room. The room is clean and has everything what you need. I also enjoyed listening to the birds singing all around the property. I highly recommend this bed and breakfast for anyone looking for a comfortable and relaxing stay.

It is a real find!

Hotel Pibi Boreal's description and reviews are accurate. Some have commented about airplane noise, but in the evening and morning it is limited and after all, it is a place that is convenient to the airport, so some plane noise should be expected. It's a fine lodging on the outer edge of San Jose, away from most of the noise and congestion of the city but close to enough to good restaurants and shopping in Alajuela. Rooms are spacious and uncluttered, with huge views and a patio overlooking a forest; bath is immaculate; breakfasts are tasty and plentiful, hosts are kind and helpful. It is a great value for all they offer in this area.

Bed was quite firm compared to what I am used to.

It is a perfect location very close to the Airport and San José which already provides a lot of wonderful nature, quietn

The property is close to the airport and San José, however already very quiet and surrounded by pure nature. The host are very lovely. They really take care about you, even before you arrive with very good recommendations. The rooms are very nice, clean and have a wonderful view into nature. The breakfast was very good. It was served at the hotel room. We enjoyed it sitting in the terrace

There isn‘t anything not to like!

Best of both worlds -Close to Nature, shopping and Airport

The balcony and view was so lovely. It was amazing to wake-up by all that greenery, do some yoga and the breakfast was really good too. It's quite, but also close to a shopping centre and to get to the airport. Best of both worlds!

The place is an oasis and has so much nature. There are macaws in the sky and wild exotic birds including hummingbirds in the garden. There’s a trail in the backyard with lots of flora and fauna. The hotel owners are super nice and courteous. They have gone above and beyond what they had to do to accommodate us. They even helped pack our luggage’s into the SUV which was not easy. Would highly recommend anyone who wants to experience an Eco chic place to stay near the airport.

This place was quiet, beautiful and a personal family-run hotel. Excellent value!

I booked this place for my mother-in-law who was traveling alone for the return journey from Costa Rica back to the States. We dropped her off on our way to the airport and fell in love with the place which was located in quite hillside neighborhood. We wish we could have stayed there too! I had communicated with Mathieu about arranging transport for my mother-in-law early the next morning and he was extremely responsive. He met us upon our arrival and I can't say enough good things about how personal he was. The next morning, he was outside her room bright and early to have her at the airport on time. I would highly recommend the Hotel Pibi Boreal and would love to stay there in the future if we find ourselves back in Costa Rica

Stunning views in nature, lovely rooms

Gorgeous views and the rooms are new/comfortable. Loved hearing the jungle come alive. They also bring breakfast to your door and offer a free airport pick up. Great value for money. Highly recommend.

Unfortunately my neighbours were practicing for a singing competition, so this kinda ruined the rest and sounds of nature I longed for! Obviously this was just unlucky, but I’d suggest asking for a room that isn’t next door to anyone if there is availability as the walls are very thin!
