Nicely appointed corner room but on the cooler side on very windy evenings. We ate in the dining room all three evenings of our stay and the food and service was excellent. All staff very friendly and helpful.

It is a longer walk to the town, but you have convenience of free breakfast and dinner dining on the property. I loved that it was the closet to the Cloud Forest - we walked to the ticket window! Wonderful garden views from our room. Very peaceful. Staff was very helpful in booking tours for us.

Very nice place to stay. I chose this place because I thought it was near the cloud reserve for ziplining. It is the closest hotel to Monteverde Cloud Reserve but not the ziplining. It was a 25 min drive for us. Having said that we enjoyed our stay. It is old but the restaurant food is fine and breakfast good. The grounds are well kept. Thanks to Estefan for helping us book our ziplining and hanging bridges.

This property was FULL of bugs!! I understand we were in a mountain location, but there were massive spider webs in all the window openings, flies and roaches EVERYWHERE, spiders on the bed (multiple times), the floors in our room look as if they hadn't been vacuumed in months. There is no privacy as in we could hear our neighbors conversations. There is no A/C or heating at all. Views are beautiful and the breakfast area was nice and clean, but the rooms themselves could use an overhaul and updating for sure!

It was amazing!!! The accommodations were wonderful. The service was excellent. The property is about a five min walk from the entrance to Monteverdi forest. The hotel staff are wonderful and extremely helpful in planning outings and tours. The food at the restaurant is fresh and delicious. I cannot say anything bad about our experience at the Trapp hotel.

Dining service was great. Restaurant food is delicious. Front desk staff was friendly. The only thing I’m not happy about is that by adding two kids to the same room reservation for two nights, I had to pay $260 additional - sounds too money hungry and does not make sense!

Horrible experience - NOT family friendly!!

Horrible experience. Rooms were old/outdated and ours was full of bugs. Staff was beyond rude and creepy - actively monitored our children. This hotel is NOT kid friendly despite the name of the hotel. Families should not stay here! Far from anything to do, moldy rooms, incredibly rude/invasive hotel staff. Only windows in the rooms face the walkway so you have zero privacy.

Great hotel for a great price. One of the few hotels I’ve stayed in where the pictures do not do it justice, the view from our mountain suite was amazing. The room was clean, spacious, and secure. The room doesn’t have A/C which threw us off at first but this is typical for the area as the cool mountain wind was more than enough for a comfortable stay with the windows cracked. The area around the hotel is surrounded by forest so it was extremely quiet and relaxing, calm enough even to see some wildlife roaming freely through the property. The overall decor of the room and common areas was extremely beautiful. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, specifically the gentleman at the front desk and the gentleman that kept the bar in the evening and served us breakfast in the morning. I can’t recommend this place enough. We wished we had time to stay here longer but we will definitely be back!
