Grounds were beautiful! Loved the trail in the back. Room was a bit noisy. Could hear lots of noise from outside which was sometimes good (birds), sometimes bad (other guests). Saw a gecko in the room almost every day (we assume he lived in there because he didn't seem to want to leave) and a large ant that kept making its way inside. We did request no room service, but our room was still cleaned so maybe they misunderstood our request as we didn't want anyone in the room. Thankfully, they do provide a safe which was great. Breakfast was good and fast if you want to get an early start to your day. Grounds seemed very safe and a few good restaurants within walking distance, but still far enough away from the bustle of downtown for it to be quiet.

Cheap and cheerful…Nice grounds, but a very dated hotel but it was cheap by Costa Rica standards.

This hotel is close to town, but has a quiet location with a great view of the volcano. Restaurants and town within walking distance. Delicious typical Costa Rican breakfast served outdoors in photo. Staff is friendly and helpful.

Property is really nice full of trees and lots of birds, I would stay there again if I get a room away from the road. Staff are really nice and helpful, Luis Miguel from the front desk will answer all your questions, good breakfast every morning, clean rooms and comfortable, the only thing we didn’t like was that we were close to the road so you can hear all the vehicles pass by day and night.

This was the gem of Fortuna. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The facilities were immaculate, the pool was fantastic. The cabins were very clean and functional. Rooms were cleaned daily and the breakfast was simple but delicious. The hotel is a 10min walk to town. There is two restaurants within 5min both amazing. I would highly recommend.

Was looking for something that was abit remote but not too far from the center of La Fortuna. Arenal Country Inn did not dissapoint. Roughly 5-10 minutes walk and you're there. I really enjoyed my stay, most of the staff know some english and are very friendly, the rooms were spacious and clean and the jungle really felt like it was outside the window. While I personally appriciate the brids and cicadas, for those who likes silence you might want to bring some earplugs. Air condition worked fine and a small fridge was usefull for some smaller things. Only thing I really can complain about is the lack of a bottle opener :)

This stay was an unexpected highlight of the trip. While only a 5 min drive/15 min walk from the heart of La Fortuna, the gated grounds feel miles away from the congestion of the city center. Strolling the lushly landscaped common areas planted with palms and giant orchids feels like exploring a botanical garden. Guestrooms are breezy but also feel super secure. The staff is friendly, the breakfast hearty, and the pool large enough for laps. They have a relationship with a neighboring restaurant that offers excellent, Costa Rican dishes and is also well worth checking out for dinner. Would definitely stay here again!

Very helpful and friendly staff. We needed to leave early and hotel gave us a breakfast package. Fridge was very old and there were some worms on the floor. This hotel is a little far from city and difficult to walk to hotel at nights

This place is extremely well maintained. The grounds are large and well treed. It is close to El Salto and not far from town. Everything about our stay was great. I will be my only choice in La Fortuna in the future.

There was plenty of privacy. The rooms were comfortable and clean - and also air-conditioned, which, in Costa Rica, if you're unaware, is a big plus. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Very nice stay in Apr. 23. The property has beautiful territory, recessed from the road. Stay is in cute bungalos with individual entrances oer room - nice privacy. Jackie at the front desk was super helpful, offered me take away breakfast because i had to leave before the ofgicial breakfast time. Room has AC and refrigerator. Located is just a short walj to downtown La Fortuna, supermarket and 2 restaurants are just couple of minutes walk. Area is safe. Pool is beatiful and large.

We arrived later during the day and the hotel was waiting for us. That was nice. We had a room with its own entry and parking just next to the pool. We enjoyed the pool a lot as well as the breakfast area which had a pool table.
Breakfast is minimal but ok. The environment is really beautiful. A lot of flowers and plants.

Our shoes and raincoats were STOLEN from our porch while we were asleep!!! The manager didn’t do anything to help us even though there are cameras. This place is not the nicest place, it has a rustic villa feel but it’s not an amazing comfortable place. The staff tried to be helpful but mostly spoke Spanish. They tried to be accommodating. Also a plus was the AC worked well and the pool was nice. Best to spend a bit more and stay somewhere more trustworthy.

The property is very well kept. Adriana is very friendly and responsive. I had a great stay.

We enjoyed the spacious rooms and the central location: a few minutes walking to La Fortuna downtown with plenty of dining options, and a short driving distance to many major attractions. The staff was super friendly and helpful (although not everyone was speaking English). The hotel serves a complimentary filing Costa Rican style breakfast and the pool was nice and clean.
The main drawbacks were the nearby road noise and the adjacent rooms sound isolation (we could hear our neighbors while inside our room). Also, there was no functioning hot tub or a hot pool like some other hotels in the area.
Overall, if you don't expect a secluded resort like feel, you would find a nice and clean affordable central hotel for exploring the area while staying within a walking distance from La Fortuna downtown.

This hotel is the perfect option for families or people looking for a great hotel for a fair price. The rooms are very clean and comfortable, the hotel is near downtown. Adriana the manager is an amazing ambassador, super helpful with tours and everything you need basically. The breakfast served each morning is very complete and delicious. I absolutely recommend this hotel and if I return to La Fortuna I will no doubt to stay there again!

We loved staying here! 4 adults and 5 kids in two rooms next to each other. It was perfect for our big family. We loved the rooms one with a queen bed and two single beds for kids and one with a queen bed and one trundle bed for two kids and a single bed for 3rd kid. Kids went swimming. We ate dinner next door at Tiquicia recommended by the hotel and it was delicious! It was a great price for a cabin feel. We listened to and watched the rain poor down. Cousins hung out on the porch.

We really enjoyed our time at the Arenal Country Inn. The property is located ~2 km from La Fortuna town centre, and can be walked as it is quite flat with sidewalks. Easy check in, comfortable room (on the small side) with two very comfy beds, small fridge, table and two chairs and bathroom with a large shower. Ample hot water. Outside is a bench and porch light for sitting outside and listening to the birds. The pool was the perfect temperature and clean. Breakfast was delicious and served in a historical, covered cattle pen (sounds kooky but it was lovely). We enjoyed our time and would recommend to anyone hitting La Fortuna!
3.0
Beautiful setting, away from the center of town but still close. And far away from the massive (by comparison) hotels NW of La Fortuna proper, which is what we wanted. Amazing view of Arenal from the pool area. Nice and quiet. Would definitely stay here again
2.0
Very nice atmosphere. The host was very accommodating. The rooms were small but worked for the purpose of stopping in, showering, sleeping and leaving. We stayed for 4 days. The pool was nice and the breakfast was awesome. Well located just outside of town. Literally a 2 min drive in. Internet was sketchy .. don’t depend on it.
Overall a low amenity place with no restaurant other than the breakfast they serve.
