We loved this hotel, location and the views from the rooms. Staff is very good and is always willing to help. The only thing that we didn't like is the bathrooms. There is a step by the bathtub which is very slippery when the floor is wet. Both of us fell twice in this bathroom, but luckily with no copmplications.... more

We stayed at this hotel for a girls trip. It provided the perfect accommodations for our slightly picky needs. it was clean and new and the front desk staff was very helpful for booking excursions and providing recommendations. I would go back and hope to do so soon. more

This hotel was great. It was clean, the staff was very helpful and attentive. It was on a great location, directly in front of the green side of the volcano, no other obstructions or hotels to block the view. We went during the slow season, so we had the hotel to ourselves the entire time. We took advantage of the... more

The Hotel Magic Mountain is a clean, moderately priced hotel in the Arenal Volcano area. The rooms are probably on par with a Holiday Inn type room in the USA. They rooms are all very clean, perhaps a bit on the smallish side, but they all gave great views of the volcano (not the active side so you will not... more

Magic Mountain Hotel was absolutely beautiful (and very reasonably priced). Rooms are large, comfortable and clean. Great swimming pool and jacuzzis (two). Staff was extremely nice to deal with and very accommodating; no insects whatsoever. AC, cable TV, modern bathroom, nice restaurant (breakfast was included). Really a great place, near the volcano,. hot springs and town. more

My spouse and I found the hotel very clean, with a great swimming pool. We had it all to ourselves. Our room had a balcony, where we could sit out at night and watch the Arenal Volcano. The complimentary buffet breakfast was the best we have had in terms of choice compared to other hotels in Costa Rica. more

We traveled a total of 10 days and stayed at a total of 6 different hotels. I can honestly say that the entire group loved the Magic Mountain the best. The view was INCREDIBLE. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the staff was friendly and helpful. The breakfast was quite good and the location was just a short walk... more

We loved this hotel! From the delicious breakfasts to the comfy room and balconies that overlooked the volcano--it was all magic from beginning to end. We had two suites, 505 and 506, which looked to be the best in the hotel and had a jacuzzi and wet bar. The staff was professional, friendly, and helpful. Erika booked our rooms and... more

We loved the MM. The drive from SJ is not the best--the curvy roads were no fun. The hotel couldn't have come soon enough! We went by several hotels during our stay in Arenal. Many were further from town (closer to volcano) but we felt we were right at the volcano too and loved being so close to town. When... more

Hello, just got back from our trip to La Fortuna. Wanted to share our feeling about our stay here as we have used this site to research for our trips and have always found real people reviews far more helpful than some of the guide books. Let me start with there are abundant choices in this area for places to... more
