Description
Our philosophy: If it's not fun, why do it?

'If you're going to be in San Jose for more than one night, then it's definately worth staying in [SAN PEDRO]. You'll enjoy cleaner air, quieter hotels and a better atmosphere all round.'

- Lonely Planet, 2006

In the heart of the SAN PEDRO district, our hostel is located in a beautiful, spacious house with a view of the area we offer you clean, bright rooms, female, male and mixed dorms, private rooms with double beds, convenient to all the amenities in the area. We are right at the epicenter of the Costarican nightlife, Globetrotters has everything a backpacker could desire:

**FREE BREAKFAST. A real meal, no skimpy toast and fruit. We will provide a traditional costarican breakfast with Pinto, fresh localy grown fruits, pastries and hot beverages.
**FREE LOCKERS. Keep your stuff safe in your own room. Our large lockers will fit your complete bag so you can feel secure while walking around.
**FREE coffee 24/7 (hey, it's Costa Rica, there is a reason we are famous for our coffee.)
**FREE Call to the US or Canada for every day of your stay.
**Shuttles to/from the airport
**Tropical garden.
**Bilingual, Friendly staff.
**FREE Internet 24/7. High speed connections available all day long, every day, for FREE. Really, all day, every day. No charce, zilch, zero, zip, nada. FREE. Did we mention we'll give you a connection every second of the day... at NO CHARGE? I guess we did. Time to move on...
**Tropical/tempered climate. People pay billions of dollars a year in air conditioning and heating just to have our weather. Come find out why.

We are also close to the countrys largest university, and all the night life and ammenities a large campus carries.

There are dozens of bars within a 5 minute walk of the Hostel and at least 40 different restaurants that span the gastronomical spectrum from typical Costa Rican dishes to Lebanese and Sushi.

We offer you a clean, calm and secure stay in SAN PEDRO... with the possibility of entertainment and having a good time.

Pura Vida.

Globetrotters Hostel San Pedro Reviews on Other Websites
So, the place was very clean, which I liked a lot. Also, the free WiFi was VERY nice. After being stuck with Dial-up in so many places, or a computer "lab" with one old-ass computer at best, this was a definite improvement. The staff were actually kinda cool to hang out with too, which was actually kindof a surprise. Basically they're just a couple guys around my age who've been all over the place and know the deal. Plus, here's a nice concept... they both speak English like they grew up with it (one nice benefit of off-shore betting needing good phone people I think. :) ). It's not exactly downtown, but... it was close enough for a $2 cab ride. Plus, the neighborhood is a total college town with lots of cheap bars and less chance of gettin' robbed on my way home at night.   — Alex, USA (2007-03-11) Hostelsclub
This place is in a area where you can feel safe to walk around. Plenty of places to eat, the pizza down the street is awesome. It is nice and quite area at night. The people that work here are very friendly and accomodating. I have stayed here at three different occasions and will again.   — Gabrielle, USA (2006-03-09) Hostelsclub
amazing. great staff, very friendly, and really went out of their way to help me out. the location was really wonderful, my frineds who stayed downtown felt really disconnected from the local nightlife, while I got to hang out with people other that tourists! the place rocks, and having free phonecalls to the states made things easier for me all around. not to mention the buzz from the free coffee :) the place was clean, and I loooooved hanging out in the garden every morning, having my coffee and planning my day. thanks guys!   — jimena, USA (2005-12-12) Hostelsclub
