We stayed in one of the standard rooms for 2 nights. The room was comfortable and clean. Our room's window perfectly framed the volcano. The grounds are beautiful and well-maintained. The pool and the hottub were clean and had a perfect view of the volcano also. The staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel offers ATV tours, and we heard... more

Hello!!! This hotel provides free full breakfast every morning with your stay and the breakfast is sooooo good! We loved spending time at the pool which has an amazing view of the Arenal volcano, as a matter of fact we could see the volcano from our room. We really enjoyed our time at the pool area, they close it at... more

I loved the stay at Pradera. There were 8 of us sharing two rooms. it's about a 5 min. taxi ride from the "center" of town. I thought it was a lot better than staying in town next to all the tourist shops. If you're doing tours or activities, they usually come and pick you up at the hotel so... more

Husband and I stayed here in late Jan 2008. Loved the hotel, we stayed in one of the cabinas for under $100, and that price included breakfast. This hotel is located slightly out of town, off the main drag, so if you don't rent a car be prepared to pay for taxis (although I heard they were only $2 or... more

Unrestricted view of Arenal Volcano. Breakfast was great, and included. Internet is free. It's only $2 US to take a taxi into La Fortuna, or there were plenty of shops... more

My husband and I were in Costa Rica for our honeymoon in June of 08. Our first stop was La Fortuna/Hotel La Pradera. We absolutely loved Hotel La Pradera. We stayed in the little cabins and would definately recommend them for anyone who stays there. The grounds of the hotel were amazing and it felt like a resort with all... more

My husband and I spent 4 nights in Arenal area at La Pradera hotel. The hotel is close to La Fortuna - an easy walk. We also walked to the Waterfalls from the hotel -- a not so easy walk. La Pradera is one of many roadside hotels along the main road. We did not have a car and I... more
