Roy Hall passed away 9/23/2026. Roy was a regular since the late 90's. Myself and GringoTim have make over 20 trips to CR together. Roy could usually be found at the Park Hotel the NYB, JoeB's ,Papi's and Bar Poas and happy hour at the Blue Marlin. Back in the old days there was a gathering of CRT's at the tables by Ave 1 around 5 . He also was always at the Tampa and Pasco meetings if he wasn't in Thailand. He was a good friend and he will be truly missed. RIP Roy

So sad to hear of Roy's passing. Indeed, we had so many great times over the years, including wild parties at the SL, Zona Blue, etc. Don't forget all those stays at the Hotel Morazan. RIP Roy

I remember the Park Hotel every Friday nite. The American owner would give out bottles of baby oil to all us guys to rub on the chicas. Most of the chicas were from Nicaragua and they were all 5foot or under

Those were the fun times.

A member named TampaGringo introduced me to Park Hotel back in the days.

And some lucky guy would get a free BJ

I seem to remember an old friend of mine mentioning that TampaGringo introduced him to CR, and that he stayed at the Gran Hotel (in the heart of the city). That would have been around 1998. Apparently the Gran Hotel is now owned by Hilton.

There was a drawing for the free BJ

Just wondering...does anyone remember when the Park Hotel closed?
