Great for families! We had a great time with our kids doing the canopy and the guided night walk they have inside the hotel property! The staff was super friendly and eager to help with anything we needed! Gym was nice and well equipped and breakfast had a lot of options to choose from! I would definitely recommend it!!

Las habitaciones les hace falta una remodelación, la luz es muy deficiente y en las que son de dos pisos la ventana que son varios vidrios en días de mucho viento deja pasar el aire de una manera insoportable.

Sobre el hotel, es el más completo de la zona

While the breakfast was decent, the property itself felt poorly maintained, outdated, and significantly overpriced at $350 a night for the off-season. The rooms were dimly lit and felt stark and uninviting due to bare, poorly finished walls. Essential items like a basic table or chair were completely missing, and the lack of air conditioning made the space quite uncomfortable. To top it off, the window blinds failed to block out the morning sun, and we dealt with a faulty toilet that required constant maintenance calls throughout our stay. The value simply doesn't match the price.\"

I never leave bad reviews but feel I need to share my families experience. We had a ground level floor with a view of bushes, 2 random plastic chairs on the patio that were very uncomfortable. Not cozy! To get to your room you have to walk through this very dark cave like hallway. Poor lighting. Several spiders on the wall and pillow. Holes in screen, Keep your suit cases zipped! My husband woke up to several bug bites! Stained carpet. We tried to watch a movie at night but no Wifi/ TV didn’t work. The # we were given at checkin for front desk reception either didn’t work or they just don’t answer the phones. We asked if it was possible to change rooms the first night, but bc there wasn’t water to another building, several guest were displaced and hanging around the lobby at 9:00 at night, we were told to speak with a manager in the morning. No a.c. The property is Very steep, no side walks, unwalkable. You have to drive everywhere on the property or ask for a shuttle (but again no one was answering the phone). No parking available at our building, everyone was getting blocked in! Guests that stayed in our building would leave notes with Rm # on car so guests could knock on their door if they needed to leave. We felt trapped! Large buses everywhere. You can’t easily walk to grab a cup of coffee. Inaccessible and kids had no freedom to explore. Felt more like an outdated college dorm feel with a common area to eat. Checked out in a.m. Hope this helps other future families.

Our room was at the top of the hill which was a great view, but no soundproofing. It was loud. The towels and the shampoo/body wash were subpar. We had a car so did not have to rely on the shuttle but a shuttle is provided. We did the night walk which was fun but way too long. An hour would have been plenty.

Hotel is in a great location, but if you are a light sleeper you may want to ask them to not but you to a neighboring guest. Since walls are super thin. We had nobody next to us the first night and it was great! But second night a lady was talking on her phone all night and we could not sleep. But on the positive side their night walk tour at the property is totally great! We saw a lot of cool night animals and insects and their staff at the restaurants were really friendly and kind. You should try their Brownie with ice cream at their restaurant.

Staff were overall fantastic and would say they were 10/10.

However for the price we paid, there were some things that weren’t that great.

The rooms were pretty bare, and had scratches all over the walls and broken window blinds. And staff would generally be working right outside our window so it felt a bit intrusive at times.

The rooms were also quite loud and the way the buildings are made cause of a lot of echo so you can hear every conversation going on.

Charming cottage-style property with basic amenities: restaurant, 24-hour gym, souvenir shop, and a partially open “indoor” pool. Food is nicely presented, like elevated pub fare. No luggage room and late check-in at 3 PM. Soundproofing is poor—you can hear neighbors and hallway traffic. Clean, friendly staff, and great views. Good for families or young couples, but not a luxury stay.

The hotel is over a large area, fortunately we were located near reception and the breakfast area. There are shuttles on demand that take you to the other areas of the resort such as the pool, restaurant and canopy/night tours.

The food at the restaurant was excellent. we found the breakfast buffet to be average, with the exception of the made to order omelettes which were excellent too.

Monteverde is much cooler than the rest of Costa Rica so provided some rest-bite from the heat for a few days. The excursions at the hotel and surrounding area are the main attraction as the small town was quiet.

Room odor and broken toilet

Very disappointed. Our room had a strange odor and turned out the toilet wasn’t working. Requested it fixed, next day still wasn’t working. Finally requested we change rooms for second night which is a pain and mostly annoyed that zero credit has been given for first night. Response at front desk felt very dismissive and unapologetic. I never leave a bad review anywhere so wouldn’t post if I weren’t truly disappointed with lack of willingness to rectify.

Do not stay at the El establo hotel in Monteverde. It’s a beautiful location but Bad service and no maintenance. I am not sure why they charge so much when they don’t have the basic services for any hotel. It was an awful experience. Especially with the kids. Our room had no Tv, wifi. Washroom didn’t have proper waterflow for showers or toilet. The hotel has no elevator and the staff don’t help with the suitcases. The rooms get really hot during the day coz there is no AC. The pools are not maintained. There was no pool towels. The list goes on and on.. never again!

This was one of the most uncomfortable hotel stays I’ve ever experienced. There’s no AC, no heater, and absolutely no bathroom ventilation. The building’s design makes everything worse — the hallway acts like an echo chamber, and the bathroom window literally faces the hallway, so you can hear every single person walking by. Even with the bathroom door closed, the wind howled through and rattled the door all night.

Both windows — one in the bathroom and one in the bedroom — are placed very high up, and although they’re small, there’s no practical way to close them. And even if you could, the lack of ventilation would make the room stuffy and uncomfortable. The bedroom window also lets in constant noise from outside — animals, wind, and more — making sleep nearly impossible.

To top it off, the bed creaks loudly with even the slightest movement. Every time I got up to use the restroom at night, the noise woke up my sister who was sleeping next to me.

Also, skip the breakfast — it’s extremely overpriced at $25 per person and absolutely not worth it. You’re better off eating elsewhere.

Overall, it felt more like camping than a restful hotel experience. I didn’t get a decent night’s sleep due to all the disturbances. If you’re looking for peace, quiet, and comfort, I strongly recommend avoiding this place.

A great location near downtown while staying in the middle of nature. The property is full of wildlife and all of the staff is super helpful. Breakfast is delicious and definitely recommend the banana bread! Austin the bartender is great, we visited him for a few happy hours. While you’re there check out the spa and excellent way to recover from zip lining! The property was larger than expected so we were thankful for the shuttle to get us around. One flag is that there was no AC in the hotel rooms but at night it cooled off.

booked an ocean view room expecting, well… a view of the ocean. What I got was a major letdown. There is absolutely no way you can see the ocean from these rooms – it's way too far. It honestly felt like a scam. If I had known, I would’ve just saved the money and gone with a standard room. They really shouldn’t be advertising these as “ocean view” unless you’re actually seeing the ocean.

The hotel itself is massive, overall beautiful!

Another issue was the lighting in the room. There was barely any natural or artificial light, which made the room super dark, especially in the mornings when trying to get ready. Not ideal at all.

On the brighter side, breakfast was really good and the staff were very friendly. But check-in took forever.

This property is a great place to stay but it definitely needs an upgrade. It's like stepping back into the late 70s and 80s. The views were amazing and the activities they have on the property are great but do costs, and as much as you wanna belive that all Central America is cheap, Costa Rica is not. So be ready to shell out the cash for extra curricular activities as if you were back in the US.

El Establo is in great location with it own private hiking trails at an addition cost. Great views from the rooms.
Access to you room building is via their shuttle buses so at times there can be upto 20 minutes.
The roads going upto the buildings is very steep .Great workout if you are in good shape.
Buildings have two floor with no elevators which can be difficult if you are traveling with elderly family as we were.
Make sure you let hotel know prior to arrival you need ground floors.
Bathrooms are dated but in good condition, and there is heating or AC in the hotel.Very basic toiletries are provided.
No iron on property let alone the rooms.
Breakfast is not the best if you are a vegan or vegetarain
and buffet items are not labeled.

The property is beautiful with nice rooms and great views. But the rooms are a little old-fashioned - for example they have small/key-locked safe boxes instead of modern electronic safes. The hotel is also not particularly convenient as it is built on a very steep slope, meaning that getting around the property is by \"shuttle\" vans. (Believe me, you will not try walking this more than once - and even then, only downhill.) The ONLY way to request a van is to call reception, and the line is often busy, particularly during busy times, like breakfast. You are on hold and then it arbitrarily cuts you off and you have to call again. I also had TWO very bad experiences with the lunch/dinner restaurant. Two sandwiches, at two different meals, contained foreign/inedible objects. One sandwich included avocado skins (not slices) and I had one sandwich where melted cheese on the sandwich was still attached to the paper in which it was packaged. I was still forced to pay for these sandwiches. All they offered me was a free -- but at that point entirely unwanted - dessert. DO NOT EAT AT THE RESTAURANT. Finally, be aware that the property is very popular with large bus tours, so breakfast is a circus.

One of the restaurants had a great little nature walk below the terrace so the kids had a great time running around while we waited for the food, which was also delicious. The hotel was well located so most of the things we wanted to do in Monteverde were a short drive or even walkable. Would stay here again!

Rooms need work, everything else really nice

The hotel grounds are very beautiful, full of trails and a lovely pool and restaurant. The rooms were not good. The first room smelt like it had been flooded and the carpets had not been lifted, we requested a change of rooms. The second room was better, but very sparse. There was one chair and no side table, so the only place we could sit together was on the bed. It just felt very sterile. Also only one bed had a blanket and it was cold when we went. The restaurant was really good and the bar service was very good l.

Run Down, Poorly Maintained

The check-in was more about policy and procedure versus a friendly welcome. But more importantly , the room was in desperate need of renovation and repair. The carpet was dirty and shredded, the doors were lopsided, the fixtures were broken, the windows didn’t have a screen over them to prevent bugs from coming in, which is a big deal because the hotel doesn’t have air conditioning. The property and rooms were in extremely poor condition and needs a complete renovation in my opinion!

The good:
-Large room
-Large bathroom
-Very clean
-Refrigerator in room very useful
-Ample parking in each building next to rooms, restaurants, etc.

Needs improvement:
-Poor sealing of doors and windows so noise from cars, other guests and the smell of gasoline from grass cutting filtered into the room
-The bed made a creak as if it were going to break. Quite annoying to sleep on.
-Poor quality TV
-Quality and quantity of food vs price at Laggus restaurant was hard to justify. Overall, a lot of food in the country is expensive.
-Slight sewer smell when flushing toilet. Possibly leaking through screw holes attaching toilet to the ground.

Lovely location, so clean and comfortable with a friendly staff. A lot of upselling happening which got a little bit exhausting. Quite expensive. Food options were only okay on the property. Better dining options for the price off of the property campus. Will return.

Interesting property. Lovely if spread out grounds. Staff and breakfast were excellent. Food otherwise was average and way overpriced. It is a very spread out hotel so much walking between different areas. Also room very basic amenities- no clothes storage space, iron, hairdryer.
