At Hotel Eco Arenal, travelers highlight friendly staff, clean and comfortable rooms (often in newer buildings), lush gardens alive with birds and a creek, and a nature focused setting just outside La Fortuna with convenient access to activities.
Breakfast is widely liked for variety and local items, though a few guests found it average or repetitive. Tour pickups are straightforward, some areas offer volcano or creek views, and several reviewers suggest having a car; one noted potholes on the access road. Reported downsides include occasional softer or less comfortable beds, sporadic musty rooms, mold or insects, a one off pool cleanliness concern, and a check in mix up that staff resolved. Overall, expect a simple, nature oriented stay with warm service near La Fortuna.

This is a lovely hotel just outside La Fortuna. A rushing river runs behind the property and the grounds are filled with interesting birds. The room was brand new and the breakfast was good. You pretty much need a car to get to town for dinner or anything else, but the tour companies will come to get you for the various adventures. The only restaurant nearby was Mary's BBQ and we had a bad meal and rude customer service there. Read the reviews before you have anything more than a drink there.

We were warmly welcomed and treated with utmost courtesy and professionalism in this unique and beautiful resort. We were a family of 4 and stayed for 3 nights in Feb 2025. The resort was like a garden itself, very cozy and homely and also very safe and secure. This is the best place to stay, where downtown and even many tourist activities are only 1km away. There are several restaurants within walking distance. Management is super nice and helpful. They scheduled all our tours and even our daughter received a surprise birthday present for her birthday! Breakfast is really good with local specialties that my entire family loved. Would really recommend for all to stay here!

We loved our recent stay at the Eco Arenal Hotel. The room was clean with a patio overlooking the creek and jungle. We walked the beautiful grounds and gardens every night and admired the hummingbirds and flowers. We could hear howler monkeys in the distance, but never saw them. The breakfast included everything from local foods to pancakes. The staff was very helpful, friendly, and attentive. The restaurant across the street (Mary's) was also excellent for dinner. I highly recommend this hotel.

We had such a great experience at Eco Arenal. We stayed for 5 nights as a family with three kids and it was perfect. The room was very clean, shower was very modern, beds were comfortable, and we never got tired of the many options available at the daily breakfast. The hotel is an oasis, just close enough to bustle of La Fortuna and all the activities but remote enough where you wake up to the sounds of the monkeys and can see plethora of birds flying around.

Great place to stay for a few nights in La Fortuna. Hotel is 3-star, so wasn't expecting the Ritz... rooms were clean, everything worked as advertised, breakfast was good. Location was great - we liked that it wasn't directly downtown (we had a car) so it was nice and quiet. Would stay again if back in La Fortuna.

La camera è spaziosa e pulita, la colazione era varia e buona, la proprietaria è stata incredibilmente gentile e disponibile. Ottimo anche il servizio di lavanderia e complessivamente un buon rapporto qualità prezzo.

Værelset var godt. Dog er det meget upraktisk ikke at kunne lufte ordentligt ud efter bad, da baderummet er placeret midt i rummet. Der var stille på værelset, hvilket var rart. Morgenmaden var fin. Stort udvalg. Dog er jeg mere til kvalitet frem for kvantitet, som det ikke afspejlede her. Lokationen er lige udenfor byen, men hvis du har bil er det fint.

We were on a family vacation and stayed there for 3 nights. When we check in, they first gave us a wrong type of room then our booking. That room was on a two-story building. The room was dark, and smelt moldy. We went back to the reception, they switched us to a different room which has the correct bed settings as we booked, but this time they only had 2 sets of towels and even bed blankets for our family of 3. Again, we went back to the reception and they fixed the problem. Hotel room is comfortable. Bathroom setup is a little weird. There is no room to leave your luggage open, so you always have to put it on bed, open and get your stuff and then close and put away. Breakfast is okay, same stuff every day. The smoke bbq restaurant across street is a good place to get lunch or dinner.

The hotel is lovely! Considering it’s a two star hotel - the amenities, breakfast, territory, staff are great. The owner is welcoming and attentive to any requests. We stayed with two kids for five nights. It wasn’t the most comfortable bed. Overall it was a great stay and perfect location away from busy area so you feel in nature, but short drive ( 5 min) to downtown La Fortuna.

Loved Eco Arenal and all the staff. Laura was awesome, lots of information and very accomodating. We stayed in the newer building so everything was clean tidy and comfortable. The birds that visited were unbelievable, better than the hikes in the area in our experience. I would definitely recommend this hotel for a nice quiet relaxing stay while still being close to town for restaurants and shopping.

There are several restaurants within walking distance. Management is super nice and helpful. They scheduled all our tours and even our daughter received a surprise birthday present for her birthday! Breakfast is really good with local specialties that my entire family loved. Would really recommend for all to stay here!

Lots of birds and squirrels. Even seen a monkeys in the trees early in the morning.The room was very clean with modern anemities. The mattress were nice and firm, NOT old and lumpy.

Location
Set just outside La Fortuna, it is peaceful yet convenient to town and activities; tour operators pick up, and some areas have volcano or creek views. Several reviewers recommend having a car, and one noted potholes on the access road.

Great service very friendly and 6 mins from la fortuna. Good pickup spot for tours. They have a fantastic breakfast and a BBQ place across the street. Amazing ac in room will full cable service.

This is a lovely hotel just outside La Fortuna. A rushing river runs behind the property and the grounds are filled with interesting birds. The room was brand new and the breakfast was good. You pretty much need a car to get to town for dinner or anything else, but the tour companies will come to get you for the various adventures. The only restaurant nearby was Mary's BBQ and we had a bad meal and rude customer service there. Read the reviews before you have anything more than a drink there.

We were quite disappointed with the accommodations. The rooms were old and had a musty odor. There was quite a bit of mold and mildew on the ceiling of the bathrooms. The breakfast was okay and there was a beautiful view of the volcano from the dining area.

Great place to stay for a few nights in La Fortuna. Hotel is 3-star, so wasn't expecting the Ritz... rooms were clean, everything worked as advertised, breakfast was good. Location was great - we liked that it wasn't directly downtown (we had a car) so it was nice and quiet. Would stay again if back in La Fortuna.

We were warmly welcomed and treated with utmost courtesy and professionalism in this unique and beautiful resort. We were a family of 4 and stayed for 3 nights in Feb 2025. The resort was like a garden itself, very cozy and homely and also very safe and secure. This is the best place to stay, where downtown and even many tourist activities are only 1km away. There are several restaurants within walking distance. Management is super nice and helpful. They scheduled all our tours and even our daughter received a surprise birthday present for her birthday! Breakfast is really good with local specialties that my entire family loved. Would really recommend for all to stay here!

Værelset var godt. Dog er det meget upraktisk ikke at kunne lufte ordentligt ud efter bad, da baderummet er placeret midt i rummet. Der var stille på værelset, hvilket var rart. Morgenmaden var fin. Stort udvalg. Dog er jeg mere til kvalitet frem for kvantitet, som det ikke afspejlede her. Lokationen er lige udenfor byen, men hvis du har bil er det fint.

The hotel is lovely! Considering it’s a two star hotel - the amenities, breakfast, territory, staff are great. The owner is welcoming and attentive to any requests. We stayed with two kids for five nights. It wasn’t the most comfortable bed. Overall it was a great stay and perfect location away from busy area so you feel in nature, but short drive ( 5 min) to downtown La Fortuna.

We had such a great experience at Eco Arenal. We stayed for 5 nights as a family with three kids and it was perfect. The room was very clean, shower was very modern, beds were comfortable, and we never got tired of the many options available at the daily breakfast. The hotel is an oasis, just close enough to bustle of La Fortuna and all the activities but remote enough where you wake up to the sounds of the monkeys and can see plethora of birds flying around.

We were on a family vacation and stayed there for 3 nights. When we check in, they first gave us a wrong type of room then our booking. That room was on a two-story building. The room was dark, and smelt moldy. We went back to the reception, they switched us to a different room which has the correct bed settings as we booked, but this time they only had 2 sets of towels and even bed blankets for our family of 3. Again, we went back to the reception and they fixed the problem. Hotel room is comfortable. Bathroom setup is a little weird. There is no room to leave your luggage open, so you always have to put it on bed, open and get your stuff and then close and put away. Breakfast is okay, same stuff every day. The smoke bbq restaurant across street is a good place to get lunch or dinner.

L'albergo è appena fuori da La Fortuna, ma comunque molto vicino al centro abitato e al Vulcano e al parco nazionale. La camera è spaziosa e pulita, la colazione era varia e buona, la proprietaria è stata incredibilmente gentile e disponibile. Ottimo anche il servizio di lavanderia e complessivamente un buon rapporto qualità prezzo.

Clean room and property. Very peaceful and quiet. Close to most attractions. Everyone was hospitable and friendly. Only suggestion would be to improve the breakfast setup. The spread was great, but several food items, especially fruits, were uncovered and there were fruit flies all over them. Overall, a beautiful place!
