A very relaxing place to stay, surrounded by well tended gardens
Excellent location in fabulous gardens which are full of beautiful birds and hummingbirds. Amazing views and sunsets. Staff are professional, respectful, friendly and helpful. We took their guided quetzal tour and saw a male and female repeatedly returning to their nest.
Mattress was very hard

Came to see the Quetzal birds and enjoyed that but not a place to stay for too long.
We enjoyed the location and the food in the restaurant was nice.
The location was good but we weren't really prepared for the up hill walk to the reception/restaurant area. If you had mobility issues you may find this difficult. But by far the bigger problem was the very uncomfortable beds - they were rock hard! The room was cold at night but there were heaters and I had read about that so was prepared for that.

Great location high up in cloud forest.
Comfortable wooden cabin. Excellent restaurant (but a little pricey). Very good trails in cloud forest around hotel. Viewpoints, lovely garden, numerous bird-life. Hummingbird feeding station attracts lots of them.
It can be cold at this altitude, so a hairdryer in cabin would be great.

A paradise for birdwatchers with spectacular views
We absolutely loved our stay at Paraiso Quetzal Lodge. We were blown away by the beautiful grounds and spectacular views over the valley. It really was like paradise. All the plants and flowers were the perfect home for a broad range of birds and we could spend hours just wandering around the paths and spotting all the different birds. If you are into your birdwatching then this is the place for you! The views from the cabin were exceptional and we could hear and see the birds flying around. The cabin was clean, big and comfortable, and warmed up nicely during the day with the sun shining in. Yes, it does get cold at night, but that is not an issue at all as long as you go prepared and bring some thermals for the night - this combined with the plentiful blankets and space heaters should be fine. The food at the restaurant was good, although you do need to pre-order your dinner on the day, but that is understandable given the remote location. There was a good choice for breakfast too and it was lovely to eat while admiring the view. It was cosy at night too with the big fireplace. The hummingbird garden was a real treat - the number of different hummingbirds was fantastic. But you don't really need to go to that garden to see hummingbirds - they are everywhere around the grounds along with lots and lots of other wonderful birds. We went on the early morning quetzal tour and our guide, David, really went above and beyond to find us some quetzals to see - we got to see a male and female which was really special. We also managed to see a quetzal flying over the car park at the lodge on our last morning. There are a number of trails you can take as well - we just went on the Colibri one which was lovely and took us past a small waterfall. The staff were super friendly and helpful and Kevin helped us with our transport from and to San Isidro which all went smoothly and was well organised. I really cannot recommend this accommodation enough, especially for the birds!

Unfortunately we didn’t enjoy our stay and left after one night.
It’s Glamping in wooden huts that are not insulated and when it rains it soon becomes very uncomfortable. Wind and rain battered our hut, it was noisy and cold. They provide you with extra blankets, an a electric heater and a hot water bottle but I must say it wasn’t what I was expecting. We were in No. 9 which is very small and precariously perched on soil that looks like it could soon slip. The hut slops to the right and so does the bed. We had a terrible night and told reception the next morning that we would be leaving.
The restaurant menu is such that you have to choose a set menu of two or three courses.
Not an enjoyable stay.
