Staying here for 2 days was the best part of our trip to Costa Rica! We were treated like family! Albert Alonso the owner is a wonderful chef and he makes everything himself. From bread to pizza, pies and everything in between. He also went over and beyond and called around to find a personal guide to show us around the area that was honest and trustworthy. Thank you to the Alonso family!

El lugar está casi abandonado, sucio, el restaurante no funciona, solo hay dos personas en el hotel. Muy ineficientes y poco amables. Las cabañas no tienen agua caliente, tienen un calentador que se conecta en la regadera pero no funciona bien y le salen chispas, tengo un video de eso. Además el hotel se cierra y las cabañas quedan en el estacionamiento por lo que la seguridad no es muy buena, además la zona se siente insegura. Pedimos de comer en el restaurante, estaba cerrado pero nos hizo algo de comer la recepcionista, comida muy cara y muy mala, prácticamente un recalentado de ravioles congelados con una salsa de lata. Reservamos dos noches y sólo nos quedamos una por la mala experiencia. Lo único bueno del hotel es la vista.

Este cliente no se hospedo por el Irrespeto en malacrianza y vulgaridad de la persona que acompañaba al Sr Samuel. Dicha Calificacion debera ser Eliminada porque por supuesto No acepto que le pidieramos que realizara la cancelacion.

Great views
stayed 1 night. Room was clean and tidy but basic, just a king bed and 1 bedside table and tv. No closet or drawers just some open shelving, no coffee maker or fridge. Suited us for a short 1 night stay. We ate at the onsite restaurant but had to order by 5.30 pm as the food was served at 6pm latest. Breakfast included was basic but ok for 1 day. Lovely views from the property but an unmade stretch of road to get there so a high vehicle recommended. Overall would recommend for a short stay.

Nuestro lodge de montaña es la conformación de armonía con la naturaleza y la mejor vista del valle de Orosi, confort en cómodas habitaciones con cama king size y colchones selther, televisión de pantalla plana equipado con cable satelital y conexión de wifi sin costo en todo el hotel con vistas al valle y una de las mejores gastronomías de la zona en nuestro restaurante Orocay Bistro con especialidad en cortes primium al grill y pizza a la leña, para complementar nos preocupamos por la seguridad de nuestros clientes al tener control remoto de nuestras cámaras de seguridad y guarda en nuestro parqueo. Es una lástima que su comentario demuestra todo lo contrario y nos decepciona de gran manera al leerlo ya que usted hace ingreso a nuestro hotel a las 2:15 am y por supuesto no puede percibir nada de lo que hacemos mención.

The place was nice and the staff really nice too. The room was as expected. The towels needed a hot wash and the jacuzzi wasn’t operating like it showed in the picture. No biggie. The place is beautiful and fairly quiet. I slept well.

Both jacuzzi were not working. There were not even chairs in the deck. We paid for a room with balcony but it was a lie, they considered the front hallway a balcony but it is not. They all have the same hallway. Room was tight in space. Not worth the price we paid. It included breakfast but by 10 am they told us, no more breakfast, it was served until 9 am. I wouldn't recommend this property to anyone, not for that price.

El lugar es bonito pero si esta retirado de los sistemas de transporte, si llegas a necesitar taxi o Uber tardan mucho en llegar, el agua para bañarse nunca estuvo caliente y si se los comente a los del hotel , salia agua media tibia y si estaba el clima con frio y era para estar bañandose con agua muy caliente y mi factura aun no me la envian.

AGRADECEMOS SU COMENTARIO Y AL MISMO TIEMPO NOS GUSTARIA HACERLE VER QUE LO MAS LOGICO ES QUE SINO, SUPO COMO USAR LA DUCHA! SE ACERCARA A NUESTRO PERSONAL PARA QUE ELLOS LE PUDIERAN EXPLICAR DE COMO HACERLO. ASÍ TAMBIÉN NOS PARECE QUE MENCIONE QUE ESTAMOS RETIRADOS CUANDO A TAN SOLO 500 MTS PASA EL 1ER TRANSPORTE PUBLICO, A 800 MTS EL 2DO Y A CINCO MINUTOS ESTA EL PARQUE CENTRAL DE PARAISO. LE RECOMENDAMOS PARA UN FUTURO QUE PUEDA TENER LOS RECURSOS ECONÓMICOS PARA PODER RENTAR UN AUTOMÓVIL.

Erg netjes maar van God verlaten
Alles klopt in het hotel, het was echter stil qua gasten en het ligt ook ‘in the middle of no where. De zwembaden waren leeg, maar het was in de avond ook koud. De douche was lauw, dat was echt een domper

TARIFA ME COBRARON $10 ADICIONALES
Me cobraron $10 dólares adicionales por haber reservado a través de este medio. Lo justificaron aduciendo que cuando es a través de ustedes tienen que pagar una comisión y que esa comisión se la trasladan al cliente. primera ves que me hacen un cobro adicional por haber reservado a través de una aplicación.La cama matrimonial eran 2 camas dobles unidas con una separación al centro. Pésimo desayuno.

Lamentamos que su experiencia no fuera placentera, su comentario es de gran ayuda para corregir los errores y malentendidos surgieran durante su estancia, el desayuno que ofrecemos incluido con la habitación es el continental, adicionalmente se ofrece un menú de opciones extra en caso de que el desayuno incluido no sea suficiente.

Sehr schicker Blick
Der Empfang war irgendwie komisch und unpersönlich! Es wird NUR spanisch gesprochen und man hat einen etwas fremd wirkenden Umgangston! Trotzdem entgegenkommender früher Checkin! Die Anlage und der Blick würden mit etwas Gastfreundlichkeit und Umsicht zu einem Highlight werden! Leider wurde uns am leeren Hottop und dem kleinen wasserlosen Jacuzzi nur der erahnte Badespass mit Ausblick zuteil. Alles wirkte irgendwie unpersönlich und wenig einladend (die Liegen (neu und echt bequem) waren abgehängt) und die Stühle wurden erst nach unserer Ankunft im Hof spärlich verteilt, während der Besitzer sein Auto mit dem Hochdruckreiniger sauber machte und die zumindest schöne Ruhe irgendwie etwas störte! Eine tolle Anlage mit genialem Blick und durchaus ansprechende Zimmern (das Bad riecht komisch und die Handtücher sind auch nicht so lecker). Kleine Lampen fehlen - wenig (schönes) Licht keine Fernbedienung im Zimmer für den Fernseher - die vorherigen Bewertungen treffen aber i.d.R. Sowas von zu!!!! Frühstück ok mit Früchten - viel zusätzlicher Kram für ordentlich Geld - reicht aber alles auch so! Zusammenfassend hat diese Unterkunft ein wahnsiniges Potential!

thanks for your comment, the jacuzzi is an extra service, if the guest may ask for it the staff would fill it up and the seats usually are cover to protect it from the sun, sorry if you did feel uncomfortable about it, we are glad to had you as a guest in our hotel and if you will visit us next time we will make sure to complete all your expectations. Thanks

sans aucun interet
très mauvais rapport qualité prix, pt dej médiocre (tout est avec supplément). Chambre facturée avec un taux de change prohibitif qui augmente le tarif annoncé de 10%. Pour un prix équivalent nous avons des hôtels luxueux avec un super pt dej dans des zones pourtant beaucoup plus touristiques. A fuir.
