On arrival, we were upgraded to a "suite", but I think that was because they were so quiet it was easier for all eight guests to be in the same block.However we were very grateful after a long haul on rough roads from Arenal. The quality of the room was good, as was the view, but at the beginning of... More

It was an easy walk to the Cloud Forest Reserve. Great staff, beautiful rooms, and very peaceful. This was the last part of our trip, and it was by far the best. This lodge/hotel, has Three Wattled Bell Birds singing nearby. Beautiful views from the room we stayed in. The food was pretty good,and the staff really nice, and helpful.... More

We stayed here for 2 nights. The rooms are beautiful, the staff is extremely helpful. Overall, a great experience. The place is within walking distance (10-15 mins at a slow pace) to the Nature Preserve (reserve a guide if you want to get the most of your visit - the hotel can do that for you). The breakfast they include... More

We came upon this hotel as a last resort (no pun intended). We had driven to Monteverdi all day from La Fortuna. Not realizing that we had to drive 40 klics on a dirt road to get there. Judging travel time in Costa Rica can sometimes be a challenge. Regardless, we stopped at two other hotels and were not happy... More

The mountain suites are huge, beautifully designed, have gorgeous floors (a little slick - be careful in socks), lovely furniture, comfortable beds, and beautiful views. Be prepared to walk uphill a bit to get to them. We stayed in room 20 and couldn't be happier! Showers are warm and relaxing. Staff is friendly. The road here is bumpy but it... More

We had some expectations from this place - on the pictures it looks awesome. The rooms are nice and the view from the veranda is nice - but something didn't work for us there. Maybe the smell (of color?), maybe the big spider that waited in front of the door in the morning... The location was very convenient (close to... More

Rooms are very large, comfy beds and excellent bath, the decor is lovely. Rooms have an enclosed balcony that you can sit in that feels like you are outside. This hotel is close to the entrance of the Monteverde Biological Preserve - less then a kilometer but its pretty far from the town (about 10 mins) but if you want... More

We spent two nights here in one of their Mountain Suites, overlooking the Monteverde Reserve. The climb to the suites is very steep, but worth it for the view and the large, comfortable room with kingsize bed. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The buffet breakfast is very limited, but lots of choice for dinner, and since these were... More

We stayed here for two nights. What is has going for it is very pleasant staff; well-prepared and delicious dinners; comfortable beds. and the fact that it is the hotel closest (15 min walk) to the Monteverde Reserve. the down sides are the limited breakfast and the steep-ish walkways to the rooms. If you have any walking issues, best to... More
