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.

This is really a great place for a stay in La Fortuna. The location is really unbeatable, (when Arenal is visible that is). Unfortunately our last stay saw some unseasonable conditions for December, with heavy and almost steady rain, but mother nature can't always cooperate. The place could use some upgrading, at least the cabinas in the back. Looks like the rooms up by the pool and restaurant have received a facelift. The staff are terrific, breakfast is good, and the price is excellent for La Fortuna. I would not hesitate to recommend other than to the most pretentious that need to have perfect accomodations. This was our 3rd stay here, and will always stay here when visiting La Fortuna.

The facility is clean though there were some small insects in the cabin but totally understandable because its a tropical location and the cabin is within a garden.

Good value but just OK.
This place is ok and has a good location. We stayed in one of the cabins and there was a mouse or rat living (or visiting) in one of the walls at night. The breakfasts are pretty standard and the restaurant staff is really nice. The beds are quite hard. Good value but I would probably stay somewhere else if we go back to La Fortuna.

Great hotel, it was very charming, nice rooms, clean and the staff is very kind. You can also book activities at the reception, like Atv tours, sloth tours, zip-lining, etc. I enjoyed my time there and would definitely revisit.

The staff checking us in were friendly but told us that our room was not ready upon check-in, which we did after check in time. The grounds were safe and kept clean. The cleaning crew kept insisting to clean our room even with us present in the room and had to be told to come back to clean the room when we were not present. The breakfast served were good portion sizes and served traditional meats typical to the region - do not expect any breakfast meats similar to the US. The pools and hot pools were very nice amenities to the property as well as their parking spaces. The view of the Arenal Volcano is as advertised on a day that is not too cloudy. Overall, I would stay here again for the safety and simplicity of the property but the cleanliness can be improved.

The view to the volcano view was beautiful but the bungalow was not clean. There were bugs in my bed and around the corners of the head board. I asked for extra pillows and we got 4 hard as rocks decorative throw pillows. The shower head had a large hole and the tile just was old and cracked. I would have stayed at Los Lagos had I known the discomfort of this place. This is the first review I have ever written on anything...I wasn't super excited to be here 3 nights.
