Our room was basically made out of wood, and the balcony looked over the mountains. We loved that! We had a beautiful sunset. There was an excellent restaurant within walking distance with gluten free options. The breakfast was large and tasty. Couldn't ask for anything more.

Great for views, but a bit too remote

Overall, staff was accommodating. Expect only the basics from this hotel, beyond the incredible view (if the clouds are less dense during your stay). Staff speak limited English so a bit difficult to work through them on recommendations and tours/accommodations. Almost no tour companies would pick/drop us off at this hotel because it's really in another city and too far out of their way/ opposite direction from the main tour attractions and too far from where bulk of where tourists actually stay. I could also hear my neighbors through a thin wall. It doesn't look like they too many guests at a time so depending on what you're looking for, this may be a good hotel option for you. We are in our mid 30s and are pretty active and did a lot of the tours/adventures and didn't rent a car, so in hindsight, we would've rather stayed at a hotel closer to town (Monteverde).

The hotel was in a very remote location and no shuttles from any of the tours in Monteverde provide pickup from this hotel. The receptionist was very nice but all services were not up to a hotel standard. The wifi was not working, along with many other things. There were no tour information readily available. Also, no one spoke English.

We didn't stay because the hotel is too remote. Nothing to do without driving a great distance. Hotel is still in the process of being built. Only 4 rooms.

Disappointing

Very far away from everything. No good directions to find the location. View is spoiled by empty vacant building. New construction but sewer/sceptic tank smell from sink/shower after use. Neighbors could be heard easily. Definitely do not stay downstairs. The beds were comfortable. The rooms are almost brand new.

Beautiful Hotel in the cloud forest

This hotel was a wonderful surprise. The room was beautiful. The beds were very comfortable. There was a coffee maker in the room so you could sip coffee on the back porch while the sun came up. The food was delicious. They got breakfast ready early the morning we were leaving. We arrived late in the evening and the staff was nice enough to cook for us. It is located out of town but the staff gave us a ride into town for free.

Recommend without hesitation

Super great place- brand new (Jan2016). The owners were super friendly and made dinner for us even though we arrived late. They also led us on a complimentary private walk to show us some of the local fauna and animals. They had great insight about which tours to take (unlike others we talked to who have "relationships" and led us in the right direction. I would definitely recommend Bosque Verde Lodge and stay there again without hesitation if I were to return.

Kalt und mangelnde Sauberkeit

Die Zimmer sind leider nicht sauber! Die Böden sind schmutzig, in der Dusche befanden sich Haare an den seitlichen Fliesen von mindestens zwei Personen. In monteverde herrscht ein kühleres Klima, die Fenster sind nicht ansatzweise abgedichtet, Insekten und Kälte haben leichtes Spiel. Im Vergleich mit anderen Unterkünften war diese deutlich teurer, deshalb ist meine Enttäuschung, dass es an Basics wie Sauberkeit mangelnd besonders groß
