Monte Real is a pleasant little compound that offers rest amid the touristy hub of La Fortuna. The breakfast is good - and, like us, you'll probably see a sloth in the branches above if you look carefully enough - and the rooms are pleasant. The pool and frog garden offer diversions if you are tired of all the driving. A good place.

A very comfortable and affordable stay. Rooms were clean, breakfast was nice, and the parking area was easy to use. I'd suggest this location if you would like an affordable place to sleep, but not necessarily somewhere to lounge all day (as the pool is very small).

Convenient and comfortable
A nice convenient stay near the centre of La Fortuna. Easily walkable to shops and restaurants. Beds were comfy and clean and the staff were all very helpful. The restaurant for breakfast was in a lovely spot! The hotel feels a little dated but that had no impact on our comfort or experience.

We spent 3 nights and we're delighted with the included breakfast, small pool and staff was very helpful, top notch cleanliness and very well maintained garden. Only thing maybe WiFi could be better but we had cell service. Definitely a good option that provides value for money.

We found our 2 night stay perfect for the location and proximity to the attractions we were headed too. The free breakfast included was a great touch and plenty of restaurants to walk too nearby. Quiet hotel for being on a main road and security onsite after hours.

Great Hotel!
Loved my stay at the Monte Real. Perfect walking distance to the town square, but not too close to be loud at night. Right next to a river that has beautiful birds visiting every morning. The pool was great and the rooms were very clean and comfortable. Highly recommend!
