Good location and staff

The location looks great and the staff workers, friendly and helpful. The cabin was nice except for there were some issues with the toilet running on and the shower door. The breakfast choices are very limited. We did not have time to use the swimming pool as we opted to go to thermal Spa nearby.

Everything was good, cleanliness important and it was clean. Rooms are small and decent. Only complaint was the food could use some improvement. Everyone said orange juice in Costa Rica is amazing- and it was- just not here. Tasted like tang and watched them poor it out of a premixed bottle :( the other items were okay. Definitely better places to eat. Would stay again due to location and convenience. People were all very nice.

It’s a good hotel for the price. The Souvenir Shop is a bit of a turnoff but that’s what La Fortuna has become. Staff at restaurant was wonderful. Food was good, too. Cool pool is cold and hot pools are warm.

Perfect for us! Beautiful property! We stayed in the deluxe cabin, a free standing wood cabin. The extra privacy was nice. Bathroom was a little dated and the plumbing was poor. But other than that the room was beautiful. There is a deck with rocking chairs, nice for enjoying the volcano views. The free breakfast was good and the boys that work the breakfast shift are very friendly. There are nicer resorts up the road but I loved the location of this hotel. We were walking distance to some amazing restaurants and shopping.
