So many birds to spot!

The gardens are lovely - we spotted so many birds here! - and the pool and jacuzzi were a lovely place to relax after exploring the Arenal National Park. Fab view from the pool, and from the restaurant. We only ate breakfast here, which was good, heading up the hill to a local restaurant (can't remember the name, think it began with a V). So good, we went back the second evening too).

Secluded and gorgeous view. Staff and breakfast both amazing.

The view is amazing! Absolutely stunning view over the volcano and lake. Rooms are clean and the staff is 11/10! Maria thank you so much for being the best, helping us with all the tours and ensuring the best service. Breakfast was delicious too. Overall we just loved the fact of being immersed in nature and more secluded. Pool was a nice add on!

Lovely hotel for relaxation

The views were fantastic and great for bird watching. There was a wide variety of food for all meals and portion sizes were great. The staff were all very friendly and chatty. The welcome cocktail was a nice touch too.

My rather bad scoring, this is important to say, only counts for the room. The staff is amazing and they do their best an more to make you feel good. Thanks to Mr. Robert (Redford), Maria and the kitchen team, they deserve the full 10 points. The food from the restaurant is delicious, don't search elsewhere. The pool and the hottub are very nice, too.

A hotel to feel at home!

Wow - thank you chateau arenal for a great stay! The hotel and the rooms were beautiful and clean, the food was delicious but what really stood out was the staff! All of them are SO kind and real great hosts. Unfortunately we didn‘t get the names of everyone but especially Robert and Danielle were so ambitious in helping us with everything. Thank you so so much!!

People are really nice but I wouldn't stay again at this place

The room had bugs inside. The lights were too dim, the furniture was beaten down,. We had booked one bungalow and one junior suite. We ended up all (familiy of 5) sleeping inside the junior suite as it was better than the bungalow arrangement but paid for two rooms that we did not use. There were no wardrobes as mentioned in the description, just a rod protruding from the wall with couple of hangers in all the rooms. The light outside the room was broken and out. It was very very dark. My kids were afraid , hence we decided to go to the junior suite which was better lit and a little bigger. The staff was good but we did not like the facility. It was away from the town. There were many bugs crawling into the room. No glass or mug in the room. The parking is on the grass and muddy area. It was raining when we arrived and the whole area was a puddle. Our luggage got messy and dirty in that puddle. The. Breakfast was a rip off. The only breakfast they serve with the hotel.accomodation is beans and rice and a juice. If you want anything else, you pay for it. We had to pay for our breakfast if so please bread butter and jam.
