New Hilton hotel launches in Costa Rica's tallest building - TOPHOTELNEWS

Hilton San Jose La Sabana, which boasts 131 rooms plus a stylish 18th-floor restaurant, is now hosting guests in the landmark Leumi Business Center.

This new addition to the Hilton Hotels & Resorts portfolio is located in the up-and-coming Sabana Norte area of Costa Rica’s capital, San José.

Panoramic views from a soaring tower

The contemporary Hilton San Jose La Sabana is located within San José’s 38-storey Leumi Business Center, and provides views over two of the city’s most popular attractions, the National Stadium and La Sabana Park. Its prime position also means that the 131-key property is only a short drive from the Juan Santamaria International Airport, as well as the city centre.

“Hilton San Jose La Sabana is a first-class hotel that offers guests breath-taking views of the La Sabana Metropolitan Park and the lush green mountains of the capital as well as an impressive array of amenities,” said Sandor Tupi, CEO of Elite Hotels & Resorts. “Costa Rica is one of the world’s most sought-after destinations, and we are thrilled to leverage our longstanding relationship with Hilton to help guests create memorable vacation experiences with high-quality service at a truly remarkable property.”

Designed for business and leisure

Hilton San Jose La Sabana comprises 131 guestrooms featuring modern design and local artwork. Its sprawling suites are located on the hotel’s executive floor.

Aimed at both leisure and business travellers, these rooms come with a range of amenities, including plush bedding, high-definition flat-screen TVs, alarm clocks with MP3 player connections and wireless internet. Guests staying in executive rooms and suites also benefit from executive floor service and access to the executive lounge.

Home to the hotel’s lobby and restaurant, the 18th floor is arguably the heart of the hotel; here, The Cloud Restaurant, which is also home to a bar, pairs local cuisine using seasonal ingredients with specialty cocktails. Additional facilities within the property include a 24-hour fitness centre, sauna and indoor pool.

The hotel’s 17th floor, meanwhile, is the setting for this property’s meeting and event space, accommodating up to 200 attendees for social and corporate gatherings.
