For the price you pay (80 USD per night) you would think you are paying much more. The rooms are very inviting and private and the property the hotel is on keeps you feeling safe. The staff is very friendly and helpful, and the breakfast included each morning is delicious! Just a short walk to Playa Samara and "main street"... More

Best location in Samara. The hotel is clean, OK restaurant (everyone raves about it, even though its just OK) and the staff is very helpul. Coffee is great, but isnt it everywhere in Costa Rica? 2 pools were always clean. Rooms were spacious and "modern" for Costa Rica. Which means, if your looking for a small Costa Rica B&B style...

We were in Playa Samara for a wedding, and Hotel Giada was a good pick for a three day stay. The rooms were large, clean and comfortable. The road-facing restaurant serves tasty Italian fare for lunch and dinner, and 5 selections for the included breakfast. The restaurant is perfect for people watching, too. Nearby are banks, a grocery store, bodegas,... More

My sons and I stayed at the Hotel Giada, and it was a nice experience. The room was simple, but there were two nice swimming pools that were clean, and a restaurant in front that was open to the street. Sámara is a small, simple beach town, and there isn't a lot there, and this hotel is on the main... More

I just stayed at hotel giada for 3 nights. It was a great experience. Playa samara is great traditional Tico beach town. The hotel is a 2 minute walk from the beautiful grey sand beach of playa samara and was a lovely place to stay. The staff were great, lovely and really helpful with book tours or navigating the town...... More

Giada is 200 metres from the beach, on the main street of Samara. It has two pools and a jacuzzi. In the front there is an italian restaurant with nice pizzas. All the rooms have air conditioning, tv and a fan plus a safety box. The breakfast is not self service, you can choose between the typical, pancakes, eggs, toasts,... More

I spent only one night. The room was small any yet very nicely equipped. There were two small pools. The restaurant was downstairs and the food was good although my waiter was a bit snobby and he brought me ravioli instead of the fettuccine I ordered. My biggest complaint is when I checked out the guy at reception was on... More
