“Wonderful owners, great location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 8, 2012

This is a great hotel in the middle of La Fortuna. Central location in town, close to all bars, shops, and restaurants. The middle of the hotel is a big patio that overlooks the town. The rooms are very clean and the breakfast is delicious.

The staff was the best. We were greeted by a young woman who told us her family owns and runs the hotel. When we were ready to leave, the battery in our rental car was dead. We communicated the situation as best we could in half Spanish half English and the gentleman working there got his car and gave us a jump. Super nice!

Next time we are in Arenal/La Fortuna, we will be staying here again.

“Nice hotel, great view to the Arenal”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 29, 2012

We took room 33 which is the highest room with the best view to Arenal mountain, was very nice. The room is also very nice and comfortable. We paid 70$ per night on the green season but you can cheaper in this hotel without this view and a different Room.

“Ideal location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 20, 2012

The hotel is located very centrally, and the staff is very friendly. The terrace is a pretty place to hang out and admire the volcano. There is a lovely coffee bar opposite and a great soda that serves awesome soup among other dishes. The room was light and airy with air-conditioning and a fridge. The breakfast area was clean and breakfast was good.

“Nice basic hotel in downtown Fortunato”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed August 30, 2012

We flew in from Texas to San Jose, rented a car and drove to Fortunata and just wanted a convenient downtown hotel for the night....this one did the trick! Our 3rd floor room was very small but served our need to just crash. You'd likely want to bring your own face towels (theirs are like sand paper), but bath towels were fine. One other thing. only available electrical outlet was in the bathroom or high up by the a/c unit....none on the bedroom walls for chargers and such!

The staff were super-nice and the very inexpensive room (<$60 on hotels.com) included buffet breakfast. Breakfast was as good as the that in our later, pricier hotels and lots of foreign languages being spoken from around the world. I particularly want to thank the front desk attendant....wish I could remember his name....who let me park right in front and had someone watch my car all night! Don't miss going to the 3rd level to get best pix of the volcano. And make sure to stroll to the park just a block away....beautiful.

Room Tip: There is no elevator, so if you don't want to lug bags up stairs, ask for a lower level room. T...
