This hotel is stunning, it is immaculately clean and modern! The food was absolutely incredible, and the staff were lovely especially at breakfast! We did not see any animals from our room, but we did catch a quick glimpse of a toucan at breakfast.

Great hotel. Nice grounds and pool. Walking trails. The food was the best we had in Costa Rica. Staff was helpful and friendly. Pura Vida!
Peter, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

This hotel has a very classy look, beautiful architecture, extremely comfortable bed and sheets. The exterior gardens are walking trails are incredibly beautiful, providing a tranquil setting. However, they had a real problem with bugs. We found numerous cockroaches in our room, had to switch to an upper level room, which had far less bug issues, but they leave the back door to the garden wide open at night so many bugs fly or crawl in and by morning the lobby floor had bugs of all sorts all over it.

The food was excellent. Every meal was a treat. Great service and great location.
Jeff and Rebecca, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Everything was great. Had a room with an isolated view of a garden without anyone being able to walk past our window. The property was amazing— a nice pool (with birds and occasional monkeys) and an easy 5 min walk to the center of town. And still very quiet! Hope to go back

A Costa Rica Gem

Staying at the Monteverde Lodge was one of the highlights of our CR trip. The setting with the jungle/window outside the property was tranquil. The food is amazing! Everything was presented beautifully. They set us up on several awesome tours with Rafael and we saw lots of wildlife we would never see on our own. The gardens and trails are gorgeous. We even saw a pack of capuchin monkeys climbing over the roof when we left. The staff did everything possible to ensure an excellent stay.
Nancy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

This property is absolutely beautiful and the food is delicious. My only complaint is the walls of the rooms are so thin making it so I could hear every little thing going on around me, which definitely disrupted the peacefulness of the hotel

Hidden gem of a resort, beautiful property, well-maintained, outstanding service, excellent breakfast that's included and very clean / comfortable rooms - everything we were looking for a trip to Monte Verde.... we could've easily stayed another week.
Jeffery, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Staff and cleanliness perfect. Room awful . Very small. No Tv, No Fridge , no drawers to put things in and the most uncomfortable bed we have ever had. Terry view from the room with large wooden bits sticking up and very messy grass etc, I know it’s a sustainable hotel but that does not mean that you cannot have normal facilities.
Jonathan, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel is beautiful and the breakfast is great! The beds were comfy too.. we liked that they had a drinking water dispenser where we can fill up our water bottles. So no need to buy water bottles. Staff was very attentive. The hotel is close to town. Less that a 5 min drive where there a multiple eating options. Very convenient I do wish that the rooms had a tv. I like to watch tv to unwind after a busy day.
Irene, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lush greenery everywhere. Had a stream running next to our room! Complete privacy and great ambience. Very well maintained property. Had two trails in this property. And they allow guests to do trails (one is quite a challenge) on sister property. Excellent view from deck of other property. Staff is very nice. Breakfast was included and was good. Rooms very clean. And good decorations. The only issue we had was they have their some of the closet space inside the bathroom (which is quite big). But it's a hassle to use it. Other than that no issues.
Nandini, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel and grounds were kept in immaculate condition. We were greeted by the front desk staff eagerly and they offered a lot of help as we checked in and later booked some excursions in the area. All of the staff that we interacted with were friendly, polite and helpful. The staff went out of their way to make sure we had what we needed. The room we stayed in was an older room located on the ground floor below the restaurant area. The room was comfortable and had a nice private outdoor terrace overlooking the gardens. The room felt like it could use a modern refresh, but it was functional. The hotel also had a fantastic orchid room that had fresh air and calming natural light. This room felt underused despite it being set up for dining or drinks. The restaurant on site has a wood burning fireplace for ambiance in the evening, and has a lovely large open air seating area to enjoy happy hour drinks while watching the sunset, or enjoying breakfast.

Loud dripping noises inside the wall every time the water was turned on. Inexplicable and loud tapping noises outside front door every time we tried to sleep. Screaming children running up and down the hallways and crying babies all hours of the night. Very thin doors…no thought given to soundproofing rooms
Matthew, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nuestra estadía en el hotel fue maravillosa. El hotel está muy bonito y lo tienen muy bien conservado. Tienen espacios muy agradables y senderos, y el restaurante la verdad fue de lo mejor que probamos en Monteverde. El personal del hotel sumamente amable, nos atendieron en recepción Ariana y Yerlin, y nos asesoraron sobre las actividades de tours disponibles y nos apoyaron en reservarlas. Teníamos algunas dudas y fueron muy amables en ayudarnos a resolverlas. Incluso me ayudó un buen rato para ver la mejor ruta para tomar carretera a Tamarindo. Durante nuestra estadía fue cumpleaños de mi esposa y mandaron un cupcake a la habitación con una vela. Sin duda repetiría quedarme aquí por el servicio y el lugar.

This property boasts “sustainability” as an excuse to offer limited amenities and save on their electric bill. Maids turn the AC off each time you leave the room so you come back to a hot room every time and there are no tvs or refrigerators in the rooms.
