WHAT THE GUIDEBOOKS SAY
Frommer's 2001
Located in the high, agricultural Orosí Valley, Turrialba is the trail-head for some of the best white water rafting in the country. Nearby Guayabo National Park is one of Costa Rica's only pre-Colombian sites to be excavated and open to the public...If you are looking for some luxury in this area, check out Casa Turire...well appointed rooms and suites in an elegant, country mansion.
Fodor's 2001
"This timeless hotel looks like a manor house that has survived...from the turn of the 20th Century. Casa Turire is an exercise in elegance and attention to detail...featuring high ceiling guest rooms, small balconies and bright bathrooms with tubs."
Costa Rica Handbook
"You sense the sublime the moment you enter the breathtaking atrium lobby...upstairs, 12 spacious deluxe rooms with TVs and direct-dial telephones...each bespeak romantic indulgence with divinely comfortable mattresses...sunning deck surrounded by palms and a hibiscus arbor, and out back--a putting green and driving range."
"Quiet, relaxing, romantic and upscale without being pretentious…Casa Turire is my number-one choice for miles around."
