Incredible location.

I expected more for the money. We experience rain coming through the roof all night. The carpet was soaked and yet it took some convincing to move us to another room.

Very nice.

Pros: All of the above
Very comfy beds and sheets. Nice large tub and shower. Nice view out private balcony. Very eco friendly - you have to turn off all electricity when you leave the room. Very good breakfast. Good location, very Monteverde Cloud Reserve.

Huge spread out luxury hotel

Pros: The view, large room, breakfast buffet, swimming pool and private trails into the cloud forest.
Cons: Roof needs fixing, and insects seem to get in, maybe through the balcony door.
Location: A bit far from town,about 15 minute walk down a steep hill.
Luckily,meet upgraded to a deluxe room because we ended up with a suite that was the closest to the reception and restaurant. For a lower price I bet you are in a building a lot higher up on the hillside. I found a huge insect on my curtain and had a leak from the ceiling in a heavy rain. The suite was huge and light, with an upstairs. The hotel goes almost a mile uphill with several long buildings.

I don't normally do reviews, but this place was such a pleasant surprise and didn't have many reviews. It's really a resort, with all the amenities. Off season, the rates are incredibly reasonable and include a huge breakfast buffet. Friendly staff. No complaints at all. If you plan to drive, get a 4wd once you leave the main highway. We did the sky-line at Extremo sports: very nice and professional place.
