A great choice in this area for a budget property. Room was very clean, staff was friendly. We were entertained in the morning by a troop of Capuchin Monkeys while eating the included breakfast.

Teeny tiny room.

The room was more like a little closet with a double bed and a twin bed. There was a table, no chairs. There was a lot of noise from the road all night, you could here the semi trucks. I would not recommend this hotel. The staff was very pleasant and the breakfast was nice.

Buen hotel cerca de la catarata del Rio Celeste

El hotel está muy cerca de la catarata Rio Celeste, por lo que es ideal para visitarla desde aqui. El servicio es bueno. Utilizamos la lavanderia y quedamos satisfechos con el resultado. Hay dos restaurantes muy cerca, al salir a la carretera; a uno de ellos se accede incluso desde los jardines del hotel. La piscina y el entorno son espectaculares. La habitacion era pequeña, pero dispone de terraza con hamacas.

Buen lugar para descansar.

Muy buen lugar para descansar y conocer la zona. Está como a 1.5km de la entrada al Parque Nacional de Río Celeste. Buen desayuno. Hay wifi, pero casi no hay señal de celular. Si planean ver películas, es mejor llevar precargadas. Las hamacas son excelentes.

This hotel was so surreal! You are staying in a bungalow in the middle of the rainforest! It is magical to wake up and look out the big windows and just see all the green. The staff was all very friendly. Hector also does an amazing job at making sure you are taken care of and helping you make the most of your stay.

Simple but has all you need!

I loved Hotel Catarata Rio Celeste. It’s very simple lodging- nothing fancy, but that’s all we needed. It’s close to the park, across the street from a yummy, cheap typical restaurant, and is on gorgeous grounds with beautiful gardens that you can explore. The included breakfast was delish, and they helped us know what color the river was each day, to know if it was worth going into the park. I will return!

Excellente adresse

Hôtel avec un charme fou! Les chambres sont décorées avec beaucoup de goût et en adéquation avec le magnifique jardin qui entoure tous les bungalow permettant de nous sentir isolés. L’accueil fut excellent et le personnel très réactif pour nous proposer des activités de qualité (un tour nocturne privé dans la forêt avec guide francophone). Nous serions bien restés plus longtemps! Seul petit bémol, l’absence d’eau chaude...

Hotel Catarata Río Celeste

Hotel de tipo montaña. Habitaciones pequeñas y sin tv. Camas pequeñas. Un único basurero para toda la habitación. Aspectos de seguridad a resaltar (llavín de puerta principal en malas condiciones). En el restaurant buena la comida en calidad y cantidad. La atención en el restaurant y área de recepción buena.
