It is a very comfortable hotel in downtown La Fortuna with a great breakfast included each morning. It is family owned and they work together to make each guest's stay as pleasant as possible. The view of Arenal Volcano was awesome as we were lucky enough to have some clear days with sunshine and blue skies.

The good / bad news is this is right down town. Therefore it is a very easy walk to everything, but there will be a little traffic noise(nothing like San Jose though). This is a family owned hotel, Been in the family for 25 years now and you can see they take pride in their hotel. There are 3 types... More

We stayed for two nights - our first stop in Costa Rica - in Feb 2013. The hotel is right in the centre of La Fortuna so gets a bit noisy during the day but the town isn't rowdy so it's actually nice to have a bit of life around and it's great for people watching from the chairs out... More

Last week my son and I stayed at the Hotel Las Colinas in La Fortuna, Arenal Volcano, Costa Rica. We stayed in a large room with two beds which included breakfast. The room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was comparable to breakfasts in larger well known chain hotels with eggs (scrambled or cooked to order), beans, rice, sausage, toast,... More

We just got back from an amazing trip to Costa Rica, three days of which were spent at Las Colinas. The staff was incredibly helpful and set us up with some amazing local excursions. Plenty of hot water, complementary breakfast and the view from the terrace was spectacular. It's right in the middle of the city with a super market... More

Very clean - within walking distance of great food and stores. Really enjoyed the breakfast each morning. The deck was nice and had it not been so cloudy we would have had a great view of Arenal Volvanon. Several tours would pick up from the hotel lobby.

This hotel was located half a block away from the central park and downtown main street. The staff were helpful and obliging and they had a really good breakfast included in the reasonable price . They had a first floor deck that is very nice and gives you a wonderful frontal view of the Arenal Volcano

This place was in the best location - close to everything. The room was plain & small, exactly what you pay for. Don't expect anything fancy - only 1 towel/person. Nice to have a 'rooftop deck', where you can lounge around if you don't want to be stuck in your room. Wifi is ok, breakfast was great! Definitely don't book/take... More

...especially after staying at a disgusting place in Alajuela for one night. The hotel is conveniently located, is clean, and has very friendly, helpful staff. It's not a plush, five-star hotel, but we couldn't have afforded such accommodations anyway. Given what we could afford, this place was perfect. It felt like our welcoming refuge after our adventures around Arenal and... More
