Absolutely loved my stay at the Hotel El Sueno! Just spent the past 7 Nights in Costa Rica (1 in San Jose, 2 in La Fortuna, 1 in Santa Elena, 2 in Manuel Antonio, and 1 in Alajuela) and liked Hotel El Sueno the best. The place has a very homey feel and Rafa and his family are very warm... more

I stayed at the Hotel El Sueno for three nights in August. Monteverde is an incredible place to visit. However, we tried to stay away from our hotel room as much as possible while we were here. We stayed here because it was recommended by Lonely Planet, as wooden paneled rooms with good views. The problem was, our room did... more

El Sueno was a great place to stay. We paid $30/night. Our room had a very comfortable double bed, and a single bed. There were lots of comforters, which were necessary when it poured rain for 2 days. The breakfast was included, and was big and delicious. The staff was very helpful, and the son speaks English, which is very... more

Hotel El Sueno was clean and pleasant, right downtown beside the main strip, steps from restaurants, tourist offices and stores. Only down side of being downtown was the noise. Getting hot water in the shower was tricky: the electric water-heater in the shower head didn't heat much water, but that's pretty common in CR. We got the big room at... more
