    Unfortunately, sound travels to the room very easily. You can hear everything that is going on outside of your room making it hard to fall asleep at night.

    The location was great! It's not too far from the center of La Fortuna and the view from the room is amazing. You can see the Arenal volcano very clearly.

    Have laundry - washer and dryer but 25 usd for unlimited load, found it a tad expensive

    Great staff and location, happy to accomodate early day trips with sandwiches to go or packed breakfast when we got back late morning. Room was well equipped, had fridge. Good view of volcano.

    Great stay at La Fortuna Lodge

    • Stayed 3 nights

    My room unfortunately didn't have a proper window I can open and had bars on the window with very little light (I took a Standard, but the other rooms with balconies Im sure are very very nice on that front!). One other thing: I asked for extra eggs for breakfast and got charged $4.. which is quite a lot. Also, they charge a very high price to do the laundry, I would recommend going a few steps down the street to a local Lavanderia El Almendro, for a fraction of the price and very quick. Other than that the stay was very nice! I would go again

    I had a great stay at La Fortuna Lodge by Treebu Hotels! The location is very central (but at the same time away from the main street at La Fortuna so is very peaceful), the hotel is nice and modern, and the staff were very friendly, welcoming, and helpful. They serve delicious breakfasts as well!

    The breakfast, it wasn’t great. The fruit was amazing the coffee was good the selections for breakfast were just not great. Staff amazing, place great!

    It was very close to everything. The room overlooked arenal volcano. Staff was very nice and upgraded our room the second day! We had just got engaged so it was a wonderful surprise. There was safe parking right at the hotel. It was locked and secured.

    Had a fantastic stay here. Everyone was so helpful and friendly. From an easy check in to organising breakfast to helping book tours, they were always kind and attentive. The room was lovely, with a patio and a magnificent view of Mt Arenal. The location was perfect, quiet but adjacent to all the restaurants, shops and bars. I hope to visit again and recommend a stay here.

    There weren’t any places to hang or air wet clothes so we had to hang our bikinis in the communal area which wasn’t ideal.

    Great location. Lovely communal area. Tasty breakfast included. Beds very comfy and A/C nice and strong. TV with Netflix included was a nice bonus.

    This lodge is located within 3ish blocks of La Fortuna's main plaza - which is a great location because you are close to everything, but you don't hear all of the noise (3 blocks makes a big difference). The room we stayed in had a beautiful balcony that faced the volcano, and while the clouds kept the volcano hidden for most of our visit, we saw tucans in the treetops from the balcony and had a wonderful view of the town. The bed was comfortable and the room was spotless. Each night we selected a time to eat breakfast the next day and selected from 4 different breakfast options - we tried them all, and they were all superb. All in all, we loved everything about this lodge and would definitely stay here again.

    The rooms are small and not much closet space for storage. It was a bit frustrating to have to buzz to get back in and also to go out but it must be for security.

    La Fortuna Lodge has a great location, close to shops, restaurants , laundry and activities. The lodge has a fantastic view of Arenal volcano. The large shared open air patio was a highlight. The rooms are nice but small so the patio was great . Lots of different areas to watch the many birds in the trees or the ever changing clouds around Arenal . The sink and kitchen area were a popular place to prepare a snack . It was great to visit with other travelers. The breakfast selection was really nice and I enjoyed all the offerings. The staff were pleasant and helpful.

    Quite basic for the price, but that seemed to be the case all across Costa Rica

    Great location in the centre of La Fortuna, with very comfortable and clean rooms. It has a great common balcony where you can catch views of Arenal. Met some friendly travellers who were staying there too.

    Central yet quiet and very comfortable stay
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple

    • Stayed 1 night

    We liked our stay very much but if I were to say something would be: This hotel has more of a urban feel to it so I recommend staying here only if you want a comfortable place to sleep and go to do the tours during the day or if you want to stay within the city. In the region there are other options of hotels that have swimming pool, spa, etc which is a different vibe so it really depends on what you want. Also, we were supposed to have a volcano view but we didnt because it was cloudy :( But of course the accommodation does not have to do with it, it seems like it is pretty common to have this kind of weather there.

    We loved our stay! The location is very central, within walking distance to the center and supermarkets, restaurants, etc. Yet it is on a calm road so not very noisy from the outside. On the inside however, it is possible to hear the other guests but nothing that really bothered us. We arrived earlier and it was possible to do the check-in early. Breakfast was good and they managed to prepare it half an hour earlier than the regular start for us since we had to leave early. Bathroom was clean, big and nice, bed was very comfortable. It is a hotel but I would say I felt a bit the feeling of a hostel, which I liked it, very easy going.

    The shower head was faulty, stairs are uneven which creates a bit of a hazard (tho we find this a lot in Costa Rica) The hotel is off of Main Street, but still some pretty significant noise.

    Clean and secure facility close to town center, so walkable with lots of restaurant choices. The hotel was pleasant - the room was small but there were community places to hang out. We had one of the older rooms so possibly the new rooms are larger. Breakfast was delicious and catered to our needs. The bed was comfortable. We were glad to have AC in the room!

    The street where the hotel was located had a couple of buildings in poor repair, which felt a little "sketchy" at first. However security for the building was good and there was a nearby parking lot that was locked at night. We felt safe walking back and forth to dinner after dark.

    Room was very clean and reasonably spacious. Location was quiet but convenient to restaurants, etc. Staff were friendly. There were several attractive outdoor seating areas available. Breakfast was tasty and there was a nice selection of menu options. We had a view of the Arenal volcano when the clouds lifted.

    The only minor issue was noise, karaoke from neighboring areas. We used ear plugs and it only occurred a couple of nights and is not a fault of the hotel. The hotel itself was very quiet.

    Beautiful location with friendly staff right next to downtown La Fortuna. We found our entire stay very comfortable and there was a nice terrace outside of our room.
