This was my least favourite accommodation during our Kuoni tour. Our room was poorly lit and cold. However reception did supply an additional blanket on request. The breakfasts were good but dinner was disappointing. I am sure there must be better alternative accommodation in this area. More

We really enjoyed our stay here and the food was excellent and reasonably priced. We found all the staff very helpful and friendly. It was cooler than anywhere else in Costa Rica but we had expected this. The room was clean and comfortable. The only downside was that we only stayed one night and would have liked longer to fully... More

Stayed here for 2 nights on our tour of Costa Rica. Basic accommodation but clean and comfortable. Nice restaurant with good food and service. A little way out of town but only a reasonably priced taxi ride away. Enjoyable treks through the rainforest in the grounds of the Lodge, including a guided one at night where we saw a Red-kneed...

I have mixed reviews about this place. The area and trails on the property are terrific!!! When we first got there we were turned off by the receptionist, who was pretty rude. It got better when a new person came on board a couple of days after. The room was very dark, and extremely cold. There was no heating and... More

Based on some of the reviews I've read I was scared that it would be a disappointment and I was not at all unhappy with my stay here. I really enjoyed the restaurant food - it's reasonably priced, bar was big enough to quench my thirst and staff was great. I found no bugs in our rooms and we had... More

It was 11 deg Celsius outside, raining with much wind. Fine, but the Bungalows had no heating and there was a draft from the wind in the whole room as there were many chinks in the wood of the bungalow rooms. Probably also the reason why so many insects, gekkos and whatever were inside... From the bungalows to the restaurant/reception... More

A first timer in Costa Rica and I was so disappointed with the Cloud Forest Lodge. It had all the promises of being a really good place. It was clean, looked very inviting, was well rated, apparently one of the first eco-toursim sites to visit, the restaurant staff was super friendly and very eager to please and the maid services...

We loved being in the actual cloud forest and having trails on the doorstep. However, it is out of town so unless you have your own transport or like taxis, you are a little restricted. Having said that, the hotel staff (inlcuding dining room) were all very friendly, and the menu, though limited, kept my family happy for a couple... More

I stayed here for two nights early December, and really enjoyed it. The lodge has a rustic feel, but is quite comfortable, and while yes, it was a bit cold and there is no heating or a/c, I was not uncomfortable in the evenings, even when it stormed with heavy rain and strong winds. I liked the seclusion, the beautiful... More

After the 2 hour drive on unpaved windy roads to Monteverde, the last thing I wanted is to go back on an unpaved road to get to our hotel. I thought the location was beautiful, but it was a bit inconvenient. You have to drive or call a cab to get out of the lodge. When we got to our... More
