Hotel Ave del Paraiso
Hammocks on a garden terrace by the university
About this stay
Hammocks and a garden terrace are the first things anyone notices here, strung in a green plot that the surrounding streets have not built over, with birds in the trees through the morning and the university crowd passing four minutes away at Parada de la UCR. The rooms are relaxed and informal rather than smart, and the cafe and restaurant on site keep things simple. Cafe Kracovia is a minute away for anything more. Breakfast is on the listing, along with free Wi-Fi, free parking, full-service laundry, a business centre and kid-friendly facilities. The National Museum of Costa Rica is eight minutes by taxi, so this is a base rather than a doorstep to the museums, but the airport is twenty-eight minutes, one of the shortest runs in the district.

Our take
I recommend Hotel Ave del Paraiso to travelers who want an informal base with a garden terrace and hammocks, a cafe and restaurant, and free parking. It is near the university stop, four minutes on foot from Parada de la UCR. Anyone planning to walk to the museum quarter every day should look downtown instead, because the National Museum is eight minutes away by taxi. The 8.8 rating from 452 reviews is a solid guide.
- ✓Take a hammock on the terrace in the late afternoon, the garden birds are at their loudest before the cloud closes in.
- ✓Eat at Cafe Kracovia a minute away for a change from the on-site restaurant, the university crowd keeps it lively.
- ✓Use the free parking, this is one of the easier addresses in Montelimar to reach and leave by car.
