About this stay

Set beside a serene river, Hotel Monte Real provides a quiet escape with the added charm of its own forest and a dedicated frog garden. Mornings here begin with the sounds of nature, and the convenience of La Fortuna Town Centre being just a short stroll away means easy access to local life. The rooms, designed with classic decor, offer garden views, creating a calm atmosphere for relaxation. While the hotel provides a breakfast restaurant, the proximity to town opens up a world of dining options. The staff can also help arrange a variety of tours, from volcano excursions to hot springs visits, making it a great base for exploring the region's adventure and wellness offerings.

  • Close to town
  • Adventure tours

Our take

I would choose Hotel Monte Real for a peaceful base in La Fortuna that still keeps the town center 200 meters away. The riverside forest and frog garden are the distinctive features, and the rooms offer air conditioning, garden views and a private bathroom. Classic decor means a traditional feel rather than a design hotel. A 9 rating across 682 reviews points to consistent satisfaction.

  • ✓Take advantage of the hotel's frog garden in the evening; it's a unique experience.
  • ✓Walk into La Fortuna town for dinner to explore the local restaurants and atmosphere.
  • ✓Ask the staff about arranging a hot springs tour for a relaxing end to an adventurous day.
