Monteverde Country Lodge - Costa Rica

Pros: Well located with several restaurants within walking distance. King size room good size. Doubles look cramped. Gardens beautifully kept. Nice sitting areas for guests. Breakfast good. Reception staff very friendly and helpful.

Cons: Tried on site restaurant for dinner - disappointing- arrived very quickly so suspect had been microwaved. Far better restaurants nearby.

Very well located for Monteverde and very helpful staff

Lovely place to stay to visit the cloud forests

Pros: We stayed here for three nights and had a lovely time. In particular, Jenni who checked us in was amazing helping us with our room and issues with the car hire. The room was lovely, spacious and clean, breakfast was included and the location close to lots of restaurants and shops.

Place was very comfortable and cozy, we spend here amazing time! 🫶🏻

Cons: None

It was a wonderful place to stay in Monteverde and we would definitely stay here again!

Pros: The rooms were clean and spacious. So welcoming, with wine and an elegant snack in each room. The grounds were amazing, where we could enjoy dozens of bird species right outside our door. The staff was very friendly. One of the groundskeepers even directed me to a tree around the corner from where I was sitting with my zoom lens, which was extremely active with motmots and more. Every staff member greeted me as they worked. Such a lovely place! It was easy to schedule tour activities and to explore the town from this location.

Cons: The restaurant had convenient hours, but a bit of a limited dinner menu. We really wanted to experience local food, so had to venture into town for that. However, the included breakfast was excellent. Lots of choices, fresh fruit, hot options, etc.

Nice stay in a beautiful lodge with friendly staff.

Pros: It is a lovely place in the mountains. The rooms were spacious and there was a playground for the kids. Unfortunately we had a lot of rain and things stayed wet. They do offer a drying service bit we did not use it. Also there was a lobby area which was nice to use for playing games and drawing with the kids. The front desk was very helpful with booking a nightwalk on short notice.

Cons: There were a lot of Americans and the breakfast was very focused on this public. We missed a healthy option on yoghurt and cereal without sugar.

Pros: Great breakfast, helpful staff and simple clean rooms with an excellent shower in the bathroom. We had a family suite with 2 bedrooms (2 single beds, 1 double) and a small living area which worked well for our family. Our kids loved the outdoor play area and gardens - we saw lots of butterflies and even a Hummingbird.

Cons: Not much. The towels were a little frayed, which didn't bother us but was surprising as the hotel was otherwise quite smart. We didn't have tea/coffee-making facilities in our room but I think we could have asked for them, a small fridge would also have been useful. Like many CR places they also used very cold (fluorescent type) lighting - switching to warmer light bulbs would be an easy fix to improve the ambience!

A nice stay in the clouds.

Pros: Spacious room, well located and close to other restaurants so you don't have to eat at the hotel. Easy parking and very friendly staff. Not far to both cloud forests which frankly are the reason you are in Monteverde to start with. But you do need a car to get to them.

Cons: Breakfast could be a little bit better (lacked a little variety). It was sufficient but not excellent. Some stuff ran out (even early in the time period) and it appeared they did not have more to replace.

Pros: The location and the how well the facilities were kept.

Cons: N/A

Adequate for a night stay

Pros: The premises look nice, have a good atmosphere and there are a rich variety of birds around the garden. We really liked that we could use the spa of a sister hotel (Hotel Poco a Poco), that was excellent after a warm day full of activities around Monteverde. Breakfast was really good, wide selection of buffet. Safe, convenient parking. High quality toiletries (shower gel, shampoo, etc) in the bathroom. It was not expensive, but not the greatest price - value ratio. Would probably not return, there are many (seemingly better) alternatives in Monteverde.

Cons: The rooms and the bathroom are very small. The beds are really uncomfortable, worn and torn. Drinks at breakfast were of poor quality (fruit juice). It is more like a transit \
