"I stayed here for an overnight stop between La Fortuna and Monteverde, the hotel was better than I was expecting. Everything was great, a/c provided, was clean and comfortable and no issues at all. Would definitely stay here again if I were passing through. Tilarán is quite a sleepy little town, not a great deal going on there"

"We had a great stay here! The room was spotless, breakfast (free!) was delicious and their restaurant catered to variety of audiences. Everything around this place was beautiful! Great location! We went for birdwatching and hiking around the hotel, and the views were spectacular! "
"Room is ok, wish they had some counter space to put out stuff, they just had a small standalone sink and a bench next to it. Great location, cozy little hotel. Love the “reading” area right outside of our rooms, felt like a living room :-). This place is very windy, was waken up a few times because of the wind, but it has nothing to do with the hotel itself. "
"The wooden cabin style rooms, the staff, breakfast…everything stands out. Great pace to stay. They arrange and help all kinds of local tours and attractions! Front desk was so courteous and friendly to answer your questions! I will recommend this pace for sure as this will be my place to stay for my next visit!! Pura Vida!!"
"A lovely place to stay, which makes us want to return for a longer stay. Highly eco-conscious and eco-friendly the property is very well maintained and offers a sumptuous sit-down breakfast and good lunch, and dinner options at the restaurant. With wonderful views of the mountains and airy rooms, the Trapp lodge offered a unique experience. Since there are no elevators, one has to be prepared to go up the ramp for rooms in the higher elevations. Staff are friendly and since dinner is done by reservation, we were pleasantly surprised to receive a call asking if we would like a dinner reservation to be made. Highly recommend this place for a lovely, comfortable and quiet stay."
"Clean rooms and property. Healthy and fresh food options available for breakfast. Melissa at reception was very resourceful and suggested, arranged trips for us, which turned out to be great experiences. Warm and friendly staff. "
