This is an absolutely stunning hotel with cute little bungalow style rooms. If you want to experience the beauty of the Costa Rican rainforest right outside your door look no further than this hotel! While you’re at the pool you can enjoy stunning looks of the volcano (but remember it often gets cloudy!) During your stay you can spot a variety of birds including the famous hummingbird and toucans! To top it off there is a beautiful gazebo with a bridge leading to the reception that is great to visit to unwind and relax in nature. You’ll often spot small birds going into the river for a drink. All in all, if you’re a nature lover and you’re looking for a comfortable stay in La Fortuna, this hotel is for you!

What a treat! Especially if you're traveling with dogs! No hassles for the dogs, plenty of green space for them to run around. Comfortable, spacious room. We had a fully equipped kitchen. Comfortable beds and a delicious, full breakfast. Staff super friendly. Beautiful new pool and incredible views of Arenal volcano. Not luxurious, but highly recommend.

As mentioned in every review, staff is very friendly and breakfast is very good. However, we stayed in unit one and we did not find that clean. There were bugs on the ceiling, The sink tap only had one faucet for cold and the bathroom door needed a key to unlock. We are not high-end hotels, but a hairdryer would’ve been nice. The room was dated, and there was no chair to sit down in the room you had to sit outside. Our Expedia booking indicated a kitchenette, which was not available upon our arrival. Be aware that the swimming pool is very cold.

Wonderful hotel in a stunning location! The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, everything was clean and comfortable, and overall it's a great value. The rooms are basic but very adequate, especially for the price. There are lots of great details, like the pool with a waterfall and a small hanging bridge to go from the rooms to the reception. The breakfast was good and filling. Highly recommend this place!

If i could give confort Arenal 1000 out of ten i would. Staff was the friendliest and their treatment of guests is very personal. The breakfast was delicious. There were so many plants and facilities are well kept. You felt in an nature oasis. Already planning our next visit with the whole family. The rooms are so spacious, clean and comfortable. The pool was gorgeous with a perfect view of the volcanoe. Felt like home! Thank you Geysel and all staff for the amazing service and stay.

Great location and centrally located by vehicle to most attractions in the area. The view of Arenal Volcano is amazing from this location. Rooms are ok. Beds are ok. They're equipped with a kitchenette but minimal. (Unfortunately, there was construction going on next to room 5 that we were not notified about.)

Lovely service but couldn’t help with tours. Ok breakfast but no choice at all. Room is clean but bathroom is small and dated. Good pool. Location is well out of town and should be peaceful but road noise is horrible and ruined an otherwise good experience.

My stay at Hotel Confort Arenal was wonderful. When reaching out to the hotel to inform them of our arrival time, they responded quickly and were flexible with our planned arrival time for check in. When we arrived, we were greeted by Hazel, who is so friendly and kind. She checked us in, answered every question we had, and handed us the key to our room. The Room was clean, comfortable, and I loved that we had a kitchen with a refrigerator, sink, microwave, and stove. This allowed us to take food back to our rooms after our trips around La Fortuna. Breakfasts at the hotel were light and very nice. We had eggs, toast, rice and beans, sausage, fresh fruit, and tea or coffee. Hazel was around to serve breakfast and offered to pick up any fruit we'd like for breakfast during her runs to the fruit stand. One of my friends in the group was sick for a day and Hazel kindly packed up a breakfast for us to take back to the room for him. The grounds were beautiful and well maintained. If you look carefully you might see some beautiful frogs, insects, birds, etc. during your stay. There is an incredible view of Volcán Arenal from the hotel/rooms, and the pool is very nice! It is important to note that this hotel is slightly easier to navigate if you have your own car -- each room has its own parking spot, and rooms are spread apart. However, we did not have our own car and had no trouble walking between our room and reception/breakfast area. There is a slightly longer road for you to drive your car to your room, but there is a shortcut with a cool little hanging bridge over a stream for you to walk over. When we arrived, Hazel offered to have a staff member take our luggage to our room via car so we didn't have to walk it over the hanging bridge. So kind! We had rides arranged to pick us up at the hotel for all of our tours in the area, so we didn't worry about not having a rental car at the hotel. There are a few small convenience stores and delicious restaurants in short walking distance down the road from the hotel, so we walked a little if we needed a meal or snack. This gave us some extra opportunities to explore. Hazel also has a personal contact for someone who can take you to La Fortuna as an affordable option. He only charges $10 to La Fortuna and $10 back but be aware that he only speaks Spanish and doesn't generally work past 7 p.m.! He was very kind though. I speak Spanish so had no trouble. Overall, I highly recommend Hotel Confort Arenal. Do not expect this to be a fancy hotel. However, it is affordable, rooms are clean with good A/C, the views are good, breakfast is tasty, and Hazel is so kind and accommodating. Spanish is the primary language spoken at the hotel and by staff, but you shouldn't have any trouble having your needs met if you don't speak Spanish. Hopefully I can stay here again one day!
