The property grounds are incredible, offering an abundance of options for guests to explore and have access to. All staff encountered were kind and helpful. It was also a complete benefit that the Cloud Forest shuttle is literally right across the road! We would definitely stay here again!

Room was clean and well kept by housekeeping. There was a hottub on the property but it was not always heated. There was no bar open on the property even though it was listed as part of the experience but the pool table and lounge room was a nice area to hang out and relax.

Gorgeous property, beautiful location. Very conveniently located right across the street from the Monte Verde Cloud Forest Reserve. The only problem we had was finding the location, it seems the management or name of the hotel had changed, but thankfully we stopped by a local hotel and they helped us find our way.

We had a wonderful stay. The room was basic but nice: clean, hot shower, decent beds, good wifi. The hotel amenities were great, with excellent common areas such as kitchenette with fridge, jacuzzi, outdoor lounge areas, recreation and wellness areas. The proximity to the national park cannot be beat as the hotel is just steps from the entrance. The staff were extremely knowledgeable, kind, and helpful.

It's a lowkey quiet place right across the street from the shuttle for the cloud forest. Staff was super friendly. We went during the off season, so it was super quiet. There's a shared office space for working from.

This hotel is in a good location, just across from the reserve. However, the nearest option for food is 1km away. The room was small and we had to share a washroom.

The room and the property could not be at a better place, right next to the CloudForest Entrance. Rooms are spacious and clean, in the middle of nature. Front desk staff was very helpful in explaining the different options of how we could utilize the couple of days, with different tours, and also helped us in booking some tours and the taxis. The common room is quite big with coffee in the morning. Only suggestion for the management will be to make the shared kitchen a little bit better equipped. Otherwise, this was a wonderful stay, and would stay again in our next visit.

Nice room, Wifi worked well and the staff at the reception desk were very helpful. These rooms do not have A/C or fans, something not mentioned in the listing. I was not uncomfortable, just something to take into consideration. If you plan to go to the Monteverde Cloud Forest Biological Preserve, this hotel location is ideal. It is directly across the street from the Visitor center. The hotel property is beautiful.

Small issue of not having our reservation that was already paid for, but we were able to get the room that we ordered and the customer service was great. there was a change of ownership and they are going through growing pains. The location next to the cloud, Forrest is great and it was really good value for money. The hot tubs were hot and so were the showers.

Room was clean and exactly what we needed during our two night stay. Loved the hot tub. We did have a hard time finding the property as there was no sign at the time of our visit but gps got us 99% of the way. It’s directly across from the meeting point of the guided hanging bridges walking tour so we were able to walk over. You’ll be able to drive about 10 minutes to town. Parking wasn’t too bad in the town area during our stay and the hotel has parking
