We found out about this little gem about 3 years ago on our first visit to Arenal, and when I saw it, I knew I had to get back to it. It was all that I expected! The place is terribly cute and romantic, the place only had a few other guests which made it even better. It is ideal... More

This is an adorable Swiss style hotel near the banks of Lake Arenal near the famous Arenal Volcano, which you can see from the property. When I drove up I was immediately charmed by the buildings and the vast grounds with its bright flowers and welcoming ambiance. They have their own barn and produce their own milk products, and there's... More

We had been by this charming little chalet-looking place several times, and we always enjoyed the quaint atmosphere and the restaurant. This time we stayed for a couple of days - and it is a really interesting place with a dairy, a miniature train ride, and a rotating restaurant at the top of a hill (with a spectacular 360 degree...

The hotel is dated but charming and priced fairly....the views were spectacular. We are sorry we missed the train ride, but had to move on. I am posting a comment because of other comments about the food. Our breakfast at Dos Heroes was perhaps the best of our two week visit to Costa Rica. More

After a night at the beautiful and famous Tabacon Hot Springs & Spa, we drove along Lake Arenal and came across Hotel Los Heroes. We only spent one night but could have settled for a whole vacation if we had had more time. The architecture, the landscaping, the scenery are stunning. The quaint little train is a gem. The service... More

What an great surprise! Last November, I visited Los Heroes with a large news media group from Switzerland. Lots of nostalgia and surprises: rides on a Mini Glacier Express Train and on an Old-Time Swiss Postal Motocoach plus a delicious lunch with wine at the only Rotating Restaurant in all of Central America The industrious owner Franz Ulrich, his wife...

We stayed at this great little Swiss themed hotel for the second time this January. We were a party of 6 and booked the second floor apartment and ajoining room. The price was great, the hotel staff is very helpful and the restaurant has great food. As if that wasn't enough, they have a small train that takes you up... More

A charming hotel with enjoyable food and decor! The people who own is have made the creation of this "park" their life's ambition and the are very proud of it. For sure don't miss the fantastic train ride, if you like seeing fabulous scenery and rare birds that abound in the trees overhead. The train arrives at the rotunda restaurant... More

My husband and I stumbled upon Los Heroes on a drive around Lake Arenal. We planned to stay 1 night, but ended up staying 2 because it was so charming, and 100% authentic. The owner imported everything from Switzerland (he is from Luzern) including a train. There is a 3 km train that runs from the hotel up a hill... More
