A fantastic little place right in town that is just tucked away from the road enough to feel like......it`s not just tucked away from the road! Clean, friendly and helpful staff and very spacious rooms. Wonderful second floor balcony for a rich coffee and an afternoon read.

We booked our stay at Hotel Monte Real last minute when in La Fortuna. We were pleasantly surprised at how nice it was. Our room was spotless, and the restaurant food and service was unbelievable! Everything was made to order and it was delicious. In the morning we had a clear view of Arenal from our room and other spots on the property. Check in and check out were easy and the front desk staff were outstanding. I highly recommend staying here when travelling to La Fortuna!
