Nice hotel right along the main road. Furnishings are good, esp in this price range, and location is fine for accessing all local sites. What sets this place apart is their outstanding service -- they always provided honest opinions about what tours and activities were worthwhile and worth the price.

The large room overlooked the volcano which was nice. The hotel lies directly along a very busy road so be prepared for a lot of noise by cars and trucks. We had to pay up front which I did not like but just had to. It was a pity there was no sitting area except for the couch in the... More

Thank you for staying with us and taking the time to write a review. Unlike some countries where you can swipe the card to make a refund, In Costa Rica is not possible; a letter must be submitted to the bank justifying/requesting the refund. This is about a 30 day process. If we return the $$ in cash, the hotel... More

This hotel is a great little find on the edge of La Fortuna town. The location is perfect for walking around town, or doing tours. The room was very clean, and although the bar fridge was not working, they brought me a new one right away. Guedgit, the gal on the front desk for the 3 days I was there,... More

Hotel manager Rocio is extremely helpful and knowledgeable. She went extra miles to help us to arrange tours and plan the vacations. She even drove us in her own vehicle to catch time. Hotel is clean, location is excellent.

I stayed at the Regina Hotel in La Fortuna, based on previous tripadvisor reviews and I had booked back in the early fall. I spent 4 nights there from Jan 9 - 13. For me one of the biggest pluses was Rocio the hotel manager. This lady works long hours, is always cheerful and is a wealth of knowledge about... More

My daughter and I spent three nights at the Regina this January and were very pleased with property. Having the additional sink allowed us to wash a few shirts (you do sweat here), and the fridge came in very handy to store apples, beer, etc. VERY CLEAN, which is a priority with us. Couple of suggestions: we had a room... More

The Lonely Planet guide listed this place as "$$", which I thought was out of our budget but we checked it out anyway. Apparently $$ means $35 a night plus tax, to make $39! It's a little over a block from the La Fortuna town square. The lobby is beautiful and the staff were courteous, accommodating and helpful. The room... More
