While most of Costa Rica’s newer, boutique hotels offer compact, sleek guestrooms with a modern, innovative flair, the Grand Tara opts for old-fashioned charm, attentive service, and comfortably spacious rooms. The 23 guest rooms are comprised of 17 junior suites, 5 executive suites and one deluxe suite. Each of the unique accommodations boast hand-carved king or queen beds and double pillow top mattresses, elegantly crafted wood furniture, cable television, oversized bathrooms and scenic balcony views of the lush gardens, the new National Stadium and the shimmering lights of San Jose.
