We were so glad we stayed at El Bosque when we visited the Monteverde and Curi Cancha reserves. The location is very convenient, we found the room comfortable, with lots of hot water day and night. The grounds of the hotel are like a park. Shops and cafes are nearby, but the hotel is peaceful and quiet. The staff were friendly and helpful. We hope to stay at El Bosque again!

The staff is very courteous, helpful and attentive. The lodge is located near main attractions and is walking distance to a great coffee shop and restaurant. There is also a beautiful on-site trail available for guests. Highly recommended A++

Our family of five had the pleasure of staying two nights in Cabin 24. My only regret was that we didn’t stay longer. We began planning this trip for spring 2020. And then, because of the pandemic, we postponed it until July 2021. Daniel and Yamal were tremendously helpful in planning our family’s outings. We collected so many memories in the short time we were here — the night tour of the grounds, the guided visit to Monteverde, zip lining, transportation to and from everything. the lunch and pastries at the nearby businesses ... all booked/recommended by Yamal. Having Yamal on your team is basically like having an experienced travel agent there to guide you and keep you from wasting time and money making rookie mistakes. The breakfast included in the overnight stay was a great way to start the day (pancakes with eggs, toast with a choice of breakfast meats, or typical Costa Rican breakfast — and fresh fruit, coffee and fruit juice). If we return to Monteverde we will be checking in to El Bosque.

The hotel, cabin or whatever you want to call it is far from the town considering that it is 2 km. which is nothing but hilly. The reception is with the kitchen, it is not the right place, it gives a bad impression. The rooms are from at least 38 years ago, with a small sink and in general everything old and damaged. The old beds with bad mattresses, the entrance to the place without paving, the environment is very good, a lot of nature with a path included, the lighting... there is no lighting at the entrance. The cleaning is good but sometimes they forget to put the sink towel. The breakfast is good, adequate. The staff I dealt with two receptionists and some of them disastrous and rude, I asked him for a coffee in the afternoon and he told me that he would charge me a supplement for a simple coffee when in previous hotels we had them free in the room, to take note of the breakfast of How you wanted it did not matter to you, he brought it the other way around or how he liked it, the other perfect, nice and friendly receptionist. With all the assessment and having stayed 4 days/3 nights I do not recommend this hotel to anyone, there are much better and closer ones. A greeting and pure life.

We stayed 2 nights. The room was well located and quiet. The breakfast very decent. The lodge is located very close to the Curi Cancha reserve and 10 minutes by car from the city center. The staff is young and very friendly. On the other hand, we did not eat in the evening at the hotel because we found the price a little too high. I recommend this lodge

Estos lodges son perfectos si lo que se busca es la desconexión total y la inmersión en la naturaleza. Gracias a Yamal y Josua que nos aconsejaron las actividades ideales para disfrutar al 100% de Monteverde. Además, siempre estuvieron atentos a todas nuestras necesidades. Muchas gracias por todo! :)
