WOW! We are staying 4 nights and so lucky to have chosen this hotel. The setting is fantastic, lovely and so relaxing especially the gardens, river, pond with ducks and the refreshing covered outdoor pool. Staff Marinela & Elena are very kind, helpful and efficient. Our room is spacious but minimal storage space. Lots of free parking and safe. Delicious outdoor breakfast by Karina and Cristina. A short drive to the town center. Highly recommended!

Had to change rooms because very small mattress which was uncomfortable. Swimming pool was communal and had to book a time to use. Loved the little river running through the property.

Beautiful landscape, lots of wildlife (monkeys & iguanas), annd air conditioned rooms. Felt like a little resort. Having a refrigerator in the room was nice. The room was really small but we weren’t there so it’s ok. There was no hot water in the shower. The family who owns it was REALLY nice and friendly. Free breakfast outside by a little creek was really beautiful. I would stay there again!
Ten minutes walk outside La fortuna centre this hotel is an oasis. The grounds are beautiful and full of bird life, the staff are extremely friendly and helpful and the rooms are clean. Would definitely recommend!
We only stayed at Hotel Colores del Arenal for one night but we had a wonderful time! The rooms were clean, staff were friendly, and they have the best Costa Rican breakfast! Would stay again if ever back in Costa Rica!
We loved staying here. The room and bathroom is spacious and clean. Staff is friendly and helpful. We love the outdoor space surrounding the area. Access to the pool was also a bonus. Breakfast was great. Perfect for families with young children. Has all the comfort but also still feel close to nature/outdoor.
Simple but clean and well maintained accommodations. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel is also in a great location with the town of Arenal being only a short walk away.
Pleasantly surprised. Nice room, nice grounds, delicious breakfast, very friendly and knowledgeable staff.

The shower head was very dirty & caked with sediments and it was not attached well; there was plain tape on the shower head and as much water sprayed backward against the wall as came out of the shower head itself.
The mattress was extremely firm & slim and I did not find it very comfortable.
Neighborhood dogs were very loud, but there's nothing the hotel can do about that.
Staff were very friendly and helpful.
The property is located close from downtown. There is river that runs across the property, and there is also a lake, so there is a lot of nature in the property. This hotel is very quiet, and the staff is very friendly.

Nice little river running beside property. Some wildlife and a pond with ducks. Seemed like a good variety of people staying on the property the same time that my wife and I were there. Actual owner of property residing close by. Difficult to find location at 1st. Couldn't see any signs. Good breakfast, but very skimpy. No extras allowed without extra charge. No cooler in room. Shower set-up not the greatest, and very small sink. Fairly clean property, though.
