This hotel is wonderful! It is so relaxing! The rooms are huge, the view is wonderful, and the service is great. Everything is beautiful and made out of almond wood. The view is also amazing. You are literally in the cloud forest. You can look out the huge windows in your room and see lots of different birds up close (one had a nest). The people at the hotel are also great. They are very friendly and sweet. Almost everybody could get by with English and some were fluent. The restaurant there is also great. The food is a little expensive, but it is worth it. The Aztec Soup in particular was outstanding. The hotel generally has an eco-friendly vibe. I loved this hotel!!! The only downside is that, unless you're going to the reserve, you're probably going to want to take a cab to get places. I would definitely go there again!

My wife and I enjoyed the Trapp Family Lodge very much. We found the staff very helpful in booking activities and calling taxis for trips around the area. We ate at the restaurant every day and enjoyed the selection of Costa Rican food and the delicious coffee. No other hotel can beat the Trapp Family Lodge for access to the Monteverde Reserve. We should have spent more days on the reserve which was a short walk up the hill. The area abounds with birds and other wildlife. Though nothing rivaled our time on the reserve with a guide, we saw a lot of wildlife unaided around the hotel. The beautiful, restful, natural environment was worth the trip and the money paid.
It was not until the day we checked out and settled the bill that we discovered would have realized a large discount by paying with cash instead of credit card. For the best views ask for a room with a balcony and not a patio.
