Hotel Las Orquideas

Pros: Proximity to downtown was great and to other attractions. Owner involvement, feels like home. Cleanliness. Amazing view and saw coati and monkeys by the window!

Cons: The room by the kitchen is loud in the morning, starting at 5 am...choose the other rooms that are apart from the main building; those I have stayed in and are great.

Pros: The owner was very nice and knows the area well. She treats all guests like family and creates a very warm environment. She booked our tours and even held on to our valuables while we were out. The view includes mountains and a waterfall.

Cons: Overall was great. Just floor in the room wasn't perfectly clean but I would definitely stay there again.

It is located above a beautiful valley in the Costa Rican mountains. There are lots of things to do very close by. We went on a zip line tour and they pick you up at the hotel.

Pros: The breakfast served each morning was wonderful! Rooms are clean and well maintained.

As other reviews state, the walls are thin. In the morning, I could lightly hear the (free) breakfast being prepared and the voices of other guests. However, you'll be wanting to get up early to discover the area; sun sets between 5:30 and 6pm. Therefore, I didn't consider it a negative aspect, and certainly recommend staying here.

Pros: Owner was very friendly and helpful, providing excellent recommendations for a night tour, horseback riding and restaurants. Room, though small, was clean and comfortable. Also be sure to look for the coatis on the back terrace. Great experience!

The owner Nidia and staff always where ready to assist in any matter. They booked all our excursions for us. We asked regarding getting a massage and Nidia recommended a great masseuse, also she personally took me to get a manicure/pedicure in town. This was one of our best vacation, we plan to return to Monteverde and definitely will stay at Las Orquideas.

Pros: This is a charming, family operated hotel. I traveled with my two teenage sons, they loved the place. They commented on how it may them feel like home. The breakfasts where very satisfying and delicious. They where always eager to help in any way.

Cons: Nothing.
