I recently stayed at the Hotel Malinche, for the second time, while in Quepos. They gave me a small room with a fan for $15 per night. I have found the desk staff to be very professional, although not as outwardly friendly as some of the other CR hotels I have stayed in. The hotel has its own gated parking... more

The Malinche is certainly not the five star you might wish for, but the rooms are very comfortable. The place is clean, location excellent, and the folks who own and run the place are very pleasant. I have stayed here many times in the last few years and while the place will not many awards, the location is second to... more

I really loved my staying at the Hotel Malinche. This hotel is not a 5 stars hotel so you can´t expect luxury all around but anyway, there isn´t any luxury hotels in Quepos actually. I think this hotel represents a great value as the prices are quite reasonable and the rooms have air conditioning (that really works), hot water and... more

I arrived expecting to have a room that I reserved, for the price I was quoted, and got neither. Quoted through their on web-site, I was quoted a low price of $10.00 for a room with fan, or $25.00 for a room with A/C. When I got there, and told them I had a reservation, I recieved a blank stare... more

We're talking about $25.00 for a cheap room so not a big deal. Apparently reservations don't mean much. The low end rooms... more

This is the first of many L. Amer. hotels I've been to that doesn't honor confirmed Internet reservations (made through their own website and confirmed by their employees). In late February, we arrived on our entry date at 4PM and all of the A/C & hot water rooms were taken. Even admitting we were on their reservation list, the only... more

I have been staying at the Malinche for the last 9 visits to Quepos/ Manual Antonio. It is close to the fishing pier for sports fishing. One can walk to all the restaurants in the area, El Banco bar, Gran Escape. You can walk to tbe grocery store, and walk to the bus or taxi stand. It is secure and... more

We arrived in Quepos, hot, tired after a long, long bus journey from San Jose. The budget hotels we looked at seemed airless and claustrophobic, then we saw the cool courtyard of the Hotel Malinche, and knew it was the right place for us. The woman on Reception was friendly and helpful, and the room was clean, comfortable and a... more
