The Hemingway is located in the Amon quarter of San José. As an authentic Spanish mansion, the Hemingway is one of the most photographed buildings in all of San José. Though the city has grown around it, it was originally built as a large hacienda for the family of a wealthy coffee plantation owner in the 1920´s. Still retaining its former charm, only ten years ago it was completely renovated and remodelled to become a bed and breakfast.
Though none of the seventeen guest rooms are the same, they all have posturepedic beds, cable television with over 50 channels in Spanish and English, a telephone with free calls within Costa Rica, a clock-radio, an insured in-room safe (extra), and a private tiled bath with hot water shower. All rooms are equipped with ceiling fans to circulate the air, but heating and air-conditioning are never needed in San José. Rooms come in three price ranges depending upon size and location.
The Hemingway is owned and operated by Canadian, Eric Robinson, a 1974 graduate tourism environmentalist. The hotel is open 24 hours per day, and is about 20 minutes from the international airport. Located at the corner of Avenida 9, Calle 9, in the historic Amon district, San José.
