We stayed at the hotel for three nights in La Fortuna and we loved the view outside our room of the volcano (although it did have cloud over the top all the time!) The garden by the hotel is nice and there's lots of lovely birds that you can see whilst eating breakfast. The self service breakfast had bread for... More

We stayed here three nights. The hotel is reasonably priced and very clean. You can chose a room on the main floor or one with a balcony. We chose the balcony where we could sit in the rocking chairs and admire the view of the volcano. There's an outdoor kitchen where you can go and prepare your own breakfast. There... More

My wife and I just got back from a ten day vacation in Costa Rica, the first part of our trip was supposed to include only a couple of days at La Fortuna de San Carlos. Through high recomendations from some friends here in California who had already been to this region in Costa Rica, we made reservations in advance... More

This place would be great if it was a bit further from the main road through town. It has an amazing view of the volcano, powerful A/C and good hot water. The rooms are average motel decor but the balconies are outstanding so you can sit and take in the view. My gripe with the place is like most Central... More

Mario, Andrea, and family run a nice hotel. Located at the edge of town, the hotel is an easy walk to La Fortuna's restaurants and shops. Our room was upgraded to an upstairs room with a balcony, from which we had a nice view of the volcano. It was spectacular. The room itself was comfortable with two full-size beds, a... More

Downtown La Fortuna was noisy, so I ventured out and found this hotel, just a 5 min. walk from the center. I paid $25 per night for a room with great A/C, fridge, safe, comfy bed, hot shower (except for once) and TV. I took a back room with no view of the volcano, but for $5 more you can... More

Reasonable prices, very clean rooms, and access to a kitchen. We've been traveling for the last 8 weeks in Costa Rica, and this is the best hotel of the trip. It's considerably less expensive than many hotels around La Fortuna, many of which costs $100 or more per night. It's just at the edge of town, less than five minutes... More

Great value and perfect location in heart of la fortuna. My boyfriend and I stayed here for a night, the rooms were clean modern and had big bathrooms-all for 40$ a night it was amazing. The hotel is actually set back from the front office/street so it's quieter, yet still in the downtown fortuna area. Breakfast was included and the... More
