The hotel was nice and has beautiful natural plants and flowers all around. The pool was good for the setting and for a nice dip. Breakfast of pancakes, eggs, rice, plantains, juice, coffee and toast. The room was small, as expected. A little more rustic than we planned, but great for the price.

I read the reviews before my stay and knew what I was getting myself into. As long as you know there is no wifi in the cabins you will enjoy yourself and relax. My family played card games, watched TV, and enjoyed the beautiful surroundings without being on our phones the whole time. I stopped by the lobby a couple times to check my emails on their WiFi and that’s all I needed.

I have powerful dislike of this place. The fridge didn't work. The TV didn't work. The walls leaked water. And they have signs saying you can't put toilet paper in the toilet?? That's not a question, those signs do exist.

The grounds are very nice but the cabins aren't. I know it's cheap, but there's a reason.

The property is only a 5 minute walk from town. It’s clean and the staff were all welcoming. The cabanas are big, the bathroom a good size. However they do need to be updated. The bedroom and bathroom are tiled so be careful when it’s newly mopped because it’s slippery. No soap was available, just shampoo. Wish they had more outlets for our gadgets. Overall it’s good value for your money

Absolutely beautiful property! Our check in was friendly and fast. The individual little cabins were so cute! We had a very long travel day (2 days actually) so we sadly slept through breakfast both days. Property is very well maintained and clean. We would have liked more pillows but I’m sure we could have had them if we asked. Overall a great spot! We thought it was better than expected for the price.

We liked our stay at the Arenal Montechiari Hotel. It was different from a usual hotel because of the small, individual houses.
Positive things about the houses are ...they have air conditioning, are clean, have a room safe for valuables, have a TV, and the breakfast is adequate. Every unit has a small porch with two chairs on it. The price for staying there is very reasonable, and the grounds are pretty with flowers. The staff was friendly and helpful.
Negative things are... the small houses are very rustic. You can see light between the boards on the door and there was a gap under the door. Despite that, we did not see any insects in the unit. Our house had two beds that were tightly squeezed into the room. There wasn't a chair for lounging. The small houses are very close together and conversations can be heard from people outside.

This Arenal Montechiari is a great deal for price conscious travelers it’s an older property and a little rustic, but very clean with exceptional service. It’s perfect for tourists in that it’s walking distance to many restaurants in downtown La Fortuna. Almost all of the local sightseeing activities offer shuttles to and from the hotel. Great breakfast too! No wifi in rooms but is available in reception and the restaurant. Would definitely stay again.

The property is old. The bathroom is small. Shower was good but the toilet and sink were finicky - had to operate them just right so they didn't drip. We were assigned a cabin right next to the heavily trafficked area so got noisy at times. There were empty cabins away from the reception area but not sure why we were not given those. Breakfast was good. Wifi only works near the reception and breakfast area.

Our stay here was one of the highlights of our 9 days in Costa Rica! The young man who checked us in was so nice and helpful! He had great recommendations that helped maximize our time there, and he even called the rental car agency to get their exact location and then put that in my GPS for me.
The bungalows were charming and peaceful, and the breakfast was authentic, with enough choices to satisfy our group of 8. The busyness and action of the town was a short walk away, but the property was set back and surrounded by trees, giving it a very relaxing and peaceful ambiance. Watching the rain fall from the rocking chairs on the front porch in a jungle like environment was the perfect ending to an 'on the go' and busy vacation!

Arenal volcano view, the area , walking distance to restaurant and bars, the nature surrounding it. We were looking to stay in a cabin but were a bit hesitant (safety) reasons. However, this hotel worked out amazing !

Rustic rooms with good linens and furniture to play cards/eat as a family. The air conditioner was in good condition and so was the fridge.
We appreciated the staff who were all very friendly. Loren at the reception even helped us order pizza to our room one evening. This is the one stay where we did not have ants in our room or bathroom. It was clean but the walls could use a good wash.

The grounds here are a real plant and bird lovers dream. The volcano view is great on the rare occasion that the sky is clear.
Breakfast is sufficient although we wish the restaurant was open for additional meals although the ten minute walk to town was enjoyable and very very safe. Even after dark.

Not as good as we expected

We were never told what time breakfadt was served, nor was it in any of the rules or info.
We were really surprised after the advertizing of free Wi-fi, that it could only be used in the office!! NO internet anywhere else.
Then, the light outside our room shone thru the window, keeping our room lite up at night, so bright I could read!
Lastly, we had trouble getting breakfast because their tour buses crowded the dining room, taking all the tables AND creating a long service line. People were in line ahead of us with dirty plates, indicating they had already gotten food once, and we still hadn't even gotten any.

It was okay …. Staff was nice… beautiful view

The view was spectacular and beautiful. They have an amazing view the Arenal Volcano. The staff was very polite and friendly. I think they need to update and upgrade. They first cabin we were placed in didn’t have a working TV, adequate plumbing or a functioning shower door. We had to demand to be moved but after that the stay was better. The breakfast was delicious they deserve a 10 out of 10. They have WiFi but it only works at the office and cafeteria area.

Lovely property with beautiful gardens and many (loud) birds in the early morning. The rooms are spacious, the beds comfortable. While the garden has a great mountain view, none of the actual rooms do as stated on the website - they are all facing each other down rows of pathways. Wifi isn't available in the rooms, only reception and restaurant. Breakfast was a buffet with reasonable choice of pancakes, eggs, sausage, toast and fruit. A nice place to stay on a quiet road, but very easy walk right into the centre of La Fortuna.

La Fortuna get away

Felt some of the bathroom amenities could be improved. Lighting in the bathroom definitely needs updating. Toiletries were a little lacking. Staff was friendly, helpful and professsional.
