It’s a big month for the hotel market in Costa Rica.
First, there was the debut of the new Planet Hollywood Beach Resort; in a few weeks, W opens its first hotel in the country, while Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville will be making its debut in Guanacaste Nov. 1.
Now, another hotel has opened its doors: the new AC Hotel San Jose Escazu, in greater San Jose.
The seven-story, 126-room property is the first AC Hotel by Marriott in Costa Rica, and the fourth in Central America.
The property includes a fitness center, a signature restaurant and a lounge.
“We are delighted to bring the AC brand to Costa Rica, especially to such a vibrant area like Avenida Escazú that is full of urban culture. The style, design, and attention to detail makes this hotel ideal for millennial travelers who are looking to explore what San José has to offer,” said Ismael Morales, General Manager of the AC Hotel San Jose Escazú.
And it’s not alone — another AC is coming to the Caribbean with the planned AC in Kingston, which is being undertaken in partnership with Sandals.
