Great stay!
This hotel was a great choice. The included breakfast was amazing, it’s very centrally located AND the free use of hot springs at their sister hotel was an incredible added bonus. The staff was very helpful and friendly and the grounds were well-kept and clean. We would definitely go back and stay again.
Julia, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

It was nothing special but then a decent price so you get what you pay for. Our room was very dark and painted brown so made it darker and bit dismal. Felt more like a motel, but the breakfast was good.

beautiful gardens and pool.
Lovely place conveniently located. Offered access to sister-hotel amenities. Awesome hotsprings included! Delicious breakfast included.

The staff was amazing (front desk and house keeping). They were attentive and helpful. The rooms are great for the price and the pool has a great view of the volcano. The breakfast was good. In walking distance to lot of food options.

10/10 Exceptional

The property was wonderful. It’s located in downtown La fortuna so all restaurants and shops are a short walk. It was quiet and the rooms comfortable. Breakfast was delicious. The added perk was they gave you complimentary access to the volcano lodge hot springs which we enjoyed. Parking was easy and the staff was friendly. I would recommend staying here

Really love San Bosco hotel. Stayed there twice. Amazing volcano view, full breakfast bar, coffee-tea available 24x7. Swiming pool with a volcano view. Very pleasant staff. Nice quiet spacious rooms.

10/10 Exceptional

Perfect for the price. The breakfast was outstanding, the location was an ideal home base for day trips, the staff were helpful, friendly and kind. Loved it here. The room is very basic and could use a little tlc, but it is clean and spacious.

I would highly recommend this place. The staff is super helpful and it is a very convenient location here in Main restaurants and shops. I would stay here again. The pillows are very hard.

Great place to stay just one block off the Main Street. Was quiet nice and quiet. Being able to go to the hot springs for free was a bonus. Free breakfast with lots of choices. Would highly recommend this place to anyone.

8/10 Very good

Great location for the price, specially the access to the thermal springs at the Volcano Lodge. My only complain is that the breakfast was cold at 9 am when they offer it until 9:30 am.

8/10 Very good

Good hotel in La Fortuna
We stayed at this hotel to visit hot springs and to do rafting in the neighbourhood. Good buffet breakfast in front of the swimming pool. Good rooms. Private parking. Safe lockers in the rooms. Good Price. Located in the downtown fortuna but quiet area. Option to use one day for free the thermal baths in the hotel Volcano Lodge.
Pascal, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

We’ve stayed here twice now and there’s things we love and things that weren’t our favorite that we accepted as it is a budget friendly hotel, but there was one thing that occurred this time we just couldn’t look past that will have us looking elsewhere if we find ourselves back in La fortuna in the future. Pros: amazing location (next to the best sushi place in town), wonderful friendly staff, really good free breakfast, access to their sister hotel that has hot spring pools and a wet bar which we really enjoyed. I cannot say enough nice things about the staff here. Cons: they do not have blankets on the beds, only sheets. Not the worst but not very comfortable, but again, very budget friendly hotel so we felt this was tolerable. Beds aren’t very comfortable and lighting is super harsh which again.. is not ideal but completely fine for the price. Deal breaker: cockroaches in the room. Not just one. But three. Not just on the ground, but one of them was found crawling ON US in bed in the middle of the night. Overall, if it weren’t for the roaches, we’d recommend because for the cost, the pros outweigh the cons… but we just can’t look past the roaches.
