Set in Fortuna, 5.7 km from La Fortuna Waterfall, Arenal Xilopalo offers accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a shared lounge. Located around 4.8 km from Kalambu Hot Springs, the hotel with free WiFi is also 20 km away from Mistico Arenal Hanging Bridges Park. The hotel has a terrace and garden views, and guests can enjoy a meal at the restaurant or a drink at the bar. One of the best-value and friendliest places we have ever stayed in on our travels. The location is just on the edge of town, less than 10min walk from all amenities in La Fortuna, but at the same time the rooms actually overlook the forest - there were toucans and other birds just outside our room in the mornings! The staff we had contact with all made a big effort to give us all the info we needed - we had a lot of questions and they had a lot of patience with us, and helped us take full advantage of our stay in and around La Fortuna. We would like to make special mention of Armando, the hotel guide, who took us looking for sloths and also showed us some amazing frogs just behind the hotel at night - we highly recommend going on a sloth walk with him. As for the hotel itself, the room was very spacious, comfortable and quiet, the breakfast was excellent and all in all we really couldn't recommend this place enough.

Each unit comes with a terrace, a seating area, a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom with shower and free toiletries. A balcony with mountain views is offered in all units. Everything! The place is quite far from the touristy La Fortuna and it is perfect to enjoy the peaceful nature. It is like living in paradise. All the details were well thought of. The rooms are excellent as well as the staff! Everyone was very helpful and kind. They also helped us to create a plan for the rest of our trip after leaving this place (Thanks Andrés!).

Offering outdoor pool and a hot tub, Hotel Roca Negra Del Arenal is located in the suburbs of Fortuna. Free Wi-Fi access is available.

At Hotel Roca Negra Del Arenal you will find a garden and a tour desk. An array of activities can be enjoyed on site or in the surroundings, including hiking, visiting a bird sanctuary, or enjoy the tropical gardens. Beautiful location, very near to the volcano so we had amazing view. A bit out of busy La Fortuna but still there were shops and restaurants, it was more quiet and I love that. The garden was very pretty and full of birds, though I liked more wild gardens than so well organized ;). The room and bathroom were huge and very comfy. Strong wifi. Very friendly staff. Nice jaccuzzi :).

Featuring a bar, the 4-star hotel has air-conditioned rooms with a private bathroom. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi. Everything was fantastic, can't fault a single thing about this hotel. The setting at the restaurant is what dreams are made of. As we sat down to have lunch on our first day there was a sloth climbing down a tree with the volcano in the background.
