+The viewswere spectacular and the on site 4 star resturant service and food was great. Mountain trails were challenging. Great gym for working out.

+Charming cottage-style property with basic amenities: restaurant, 24-hour gym, souvenir shop, and a partially open “indoor” pool. Food is nicely presented, like elevated pub fare. No luggage room and late check-in at 3 PM. Soundproofing is poor,you can hear neighbors and hallway traffic. Clean, friendly staff, and great views. Good for families or young couples, but not a luxury stay.

+Couldn’t fault the hotel - large in all respects but not a lot of character.

+The hotel is over a large area, fortunately we were located near reception and the breakfast area. There are shuttles on demand that take you to the other areas of the resort such as the pool, restaurant and canopy/night tours. The food at the restaurant was excellent. we found the breakfast buffet to be average, with the exception of the made to order omelettes which were excellent too. Monteverde is much cooler than the rest of Costa Rica so provided some rest-bite from the heat for a few days. The excursions at the hotel and surrounding area are the main attraction as the small town was quiet.

“Room odor and broken toilet”
+Very disappointed. Our room had a strange odor and turned out the toilet wasn’t working. Requested it fixed, next day still wasn’t working. Finally requested we change rooms for second night which is a pain and mostly annoyed that zero credit has been given for first night. Response at front desk felt very dismissive and unapologetic. I never leave a bad review anywhere so wouldn’t post if I weren’t truly disappointed with lack of willingness to rectify.

+Do not stay at the El establo hotel in Monteverde. It’s a beautiful location but Bad service and no maintenance. I am not sure why they charge so much when they don’t have the basic services for any hotel. It was an awful experience. Especially with the kids. Our room had no Tv, wifi. Washroom didn’t have proper waterflow for showers or toilet. The hotel has no elevator and the staff don’t help with the suitcases. The rooms get really hot during the day coz there is no AC. The pools are not maintained. There was no pool towels. The list goes on and on.. never again!

+This was one of the most uncomfortable hotel stays I’ve ever experienced. There’s no AC, no heater, and absolutely no bathroom ventilation. The building’s design makes everything worse , the hallway acts like an echo chamber, and the bathroom window literally faces the hallway, so you can hear every single person walking by. Even with the bathroom door closed, the wind howled through and rattled the door all night. Both windows , one in the bathroom and one in the bedroom , are placed very high up, and although they’re small, there’s no practical way to close them. And even if you could, the lack of ventilation would make the room stuffy and uncomfortable. The bedroom window also lets in constant noise from outside , animals, wind, and more , making sleep nearly impossible. To top it off, the bed creaks loudly with even the slightest movement. Every time I got up to use the restroom at night, the noise woke up my sister who was sleeping next to me. Also, skip the breakfast , it’s extremely overpriced at $25 per person and absolutely not worth it. You’re better off eating elsewhere. Overall, it felt more like camping than a restful hotel experience. I didn’t get a decent night’s sle
