It's rainy season in Costa Rica so we bargained by walking away and got the price down from $92 a night to only $70. In season rate is well about $100 a night. Beautiful gardens and volcano view from our room. Room is very clean with full amenities and a rarity for Costa Rica - the shower has truly hot... more

We stayed here for a few nights while we were in Arenal. My girlfriend and I both thought it was a great hotel for the price. The grounds were beautiful gardens. There was a nice pool and big jacuzzi. The room itself was quite nice. Comfortable bed, clean room and bathroom, A/C. Nothing super fancy, but fine for a room... more

Good location, great service & really good food! Made a 3-day 2-night stay here in mid-September. Lester, Adriana, & others at the hotel helped with lodging, transportation, & tour details. We had 3 or 4 excellent dining experiences at their two restaurants. more

What an incredible place the Volcano Lodge is! We have traveled for many years, and I have never been motivated enough to write a review, but this place has compelled me! First, let me speak to the absolutely GORGEOUS grounds - vibrant, peaceful, and surreal. Having the volcano as the backdrop from our back porch was amazing - I spent... more

The Volcano Lodge and Gardens was the first stop in a three leg trip that my roommate and I took to Costa Rica. Not only was the resort clean, spacious and impeccably maintained, but the staff was friendly and went above and beyond to help my roommate and I schedule tours. We got the lowest grade room, and it was... more

This hotel was one of the gems of our vacation. We stayed there for two days and wished we had stayed longer. It is close to town and close to the volcano viewing area. The grounds are stunning with blooming flowers and trees everywhere! The rooms are spacious and very clean with a outdoors back porch. From my "back porch"... more

A great location with beautiful landscaping, lovely rooms, and a wonderful view from our room. Food was great as was the service both in the restaurant and through the main desk/security. While I"m not hung up on cleanliness, I certainly do notice it and our room was immaculate. We also really appreciated the welcome cocktail after a long day travelling.... more

I stayed here with my boyfriend, and two other couples (in our 20's). It was a great location to explore La Fortuna and Arenal. The rooms were clean, and each had a little patio that looked out on greenery with the volcano in the background. Some of our best views of the volcano were from our own patio. The front... more

The landscaping was wonderful. There were so many plants and flowers and the volcano can be seen from the premises if the clouds aren't covering it. It's definitely got a family resort town feel to the place and area. more

The Volcano Lodge was a great place to stay! It definitely is not a luxury hotel, but they provided everything we needed. The front desk staff was very helpful and friendly. In my research before the trip, I read to book tours in town rather than through the hotels. However, we found the tours we wanted were cheaper through the... more
