3-Star Hotels in La Fortuna

Whilst this is technically a hostel, it is far better than some hotels we stayed in! Rooms are great (good air con, hot water, good storage); facilities superb (pool, business lounge, kitchen/food prep area, pool table, great bar); well organised trips (the zip line followed by hot springs is a must!); very helpful staff; and the food delicious (tuna steak with salad delightful)

From the picturesque landscape to the Arenal volcano as a backdrop, Hotel Lomas del Volcán is worth five stars. Our room was in it's own bungalow, clean, comfortable and cozy. We had a large, spacious bathroom and balconies to the front and back of the bungalow. The grounds were impeccably manicured and the lush greenery and flowers just brought the paradise vibe. It was tranquil and just made me feel so much in harmony with nature. The front desk staff, tour scheduler, restaurant staff, porters were all friendly, polite and helpful and readily available. They always asked if you spoke Spanish and most could easily switch to English if necessary. The food was amazing! There was a wide variety of foods for breakfast and the wait staff there were smiling and bubbly. This is a dream location and our experience was top of the line. It was one of the best places, I've ever stayed at. Certainly value for money!

I stayed in this hotel for 3 nights as part of a trip with GAdventures booked through trail finders in the UK. We were checked in to what I think must have been the worst room in the hotel. It was at the back and over looked a side alley. We quickly showered and went to meet our group for dinner. When we got back, we noticed this god- damn awful smell which was coming from the drains and the water hadn't drained from our shower a few hrs earlier. Drains are notoriously bad across CR. We went to reception and the guy couldn't have cared less. We insisted he come and smell for himself. Well, he just couldn't have been more patronising or belittling. He said he couldn't smell it, he accused us of 'just showering' when we showed him the water and refused to do anything ie is clear the smell or move us. He said quite clearly numerous times, the hotel was full. We were left with no choice than to contact our Rep. Strangley enough we were given a different and much better room immediately. When we left, a lady came to our bus, thanked us for our custom and said they are a family run hotel. Clearly explained why the chap on reception couldn't give a hoot - he was hardly going to be sacked! Young ish guy, curly hair tied back in a pony tail. Poor Ester who came to say goodbye has no idea. He best things about this hotel are the friendly staff in the bar below, the view of the volcano from the terrace, and its only a shirt walk from the best place to eat in town- the rainforest cafe opposite (and Andreas is the best server!) but apart from that, I'd avoid it at all costs

Great site closer to the city. Very friendly and lovely staff. Great restaurants just across the street and east pick up for all of the tour activities. Great value.

We stayed here for 5 nights during our honeymoon and had a fantastic stay. Our room was so peaceful and we had a wonderful view of the volcano. They had left us some gorgeous chocolate covered strawberries for our honeymoon when we arrived! The pool area was great, staff all super friendly and helpful. The hotel is in a beautiful setting with so much wildlife around.

Don't look any further, this is THE place to stay in the Arenal volcano area. It has an amazing pool-side view of the volcano, everything is really clean, with beautiful landscaping throughout. Ask for the rooms at the bottom of the hill and you won't hear any traffic, just the local fauna. Furniture was very good, there are air conditioners in the rooms and the shower has great pressure and plenty of hot water. The breakfast was excellent, with buffet of fruits, cheeses and breads, plus made-to-order hot breakfast including eggs, pancakes and the local rice+beans of CR. Just a one day pass to hot springs at close-by locations was perfect, as we were happy to not pay a much higher room rate at hotels that had hot springs on-site.

Stayed in room 404. Originally booked 4 nights 12/20 to 12/24 at the last minute through *******. Had a problem with the reservation and both the hotel and ******* reached out to fix the problem. ******* was rude and difficult to deal with so cancelled ******* and worked with Tanya the hotel reservation manager to rebook for three nights through the hotel. Arrived at the hotel and everything was great. Got a room upgrade to a larger 2 bedroom villa with two bathrooms, a small kitchen area and a private pool in the front. Gorgeous room and rainforest like grounds. Breakfast buffet was hot and exceptional with fresh food, fruit and service with views of Arenal. Really nice swim up bar with food service and room service. Excellent quality food for dinner. Restaurant service was very good, bar service was also very good with lots of cocktails and a swim up bar and food service. Beautiful grounds. Every room is a private villa. I’ve stayed at Tabocan, Baldi and other much pricier resorts during my many other different stays in La Fortuna and this one is far and away the best value. Looking forward to going back.
