Love the feel.of this boutique hotel (9 rooms i believe) with a personal touch. It is unfortunate that the bar across the street blares its kareoke and music at too loud a decibel(it's not their fault - i assume other establishment have issues with them). The hotel is expanding and hopefully the new rooms can mitigate the street noise better. We were lucky one night that the power went out at 10:20 pm for about 15-20 minutes and the bars emptied out. We slept better that evening. I used ear plugs in Costa Rica because the roads do have noisy road warriors and few places are sound proofed and that is in most small tourist towns. Eco friendly, smoke free and truly a welcoming spot. The rooms are big and have decent amenities. The staff is great in helping you book activities (especially if the apps are no longer booking) Rosio can sometimes sneek you in under the wire. I would like go back again.

The reviews are not lying, the noise is a LOT. I wear earplugs every night anyways so I wasn’t too bothered but I could still hear it through them. If you’re a light sleeper choose somewhere else for sure. Other than that, it’s a great location, staff is absolutely lovely, room is spacious clean and comfortable, breakfast was good but not if you’re in to a BIIIIIG breakfast, nice snack before heading out. They gave us a cacao pod to take to our next location! Love Regina.

Very noisy. Loud music until late. Had an issue with management. The key to my safe broke and manager/front desk tried to scam me. She said safe needed to go to San Jose to be opened. I refused because there was no way our passports and money were going to San Jose. Then she later said a locksmith would come for $30 to fix it and I had to pay. I paid the locksmith guy $40, ($10 tip). Management tried to give me another hand written $15 or $16 bill later for a travel fee for the locksmith. Too many scams going on in Costa Rica. Time for a new country to visit.

I highly recommend this hotel. Property with NEW OWNERSHIP! Excellent and extremely knowledgeable customer service. They have it all tours, transportation, recommendations, etc. The rooms are super clean and fresh. Amazing towel sculptures and toilet paper art in the bathroom!!! Restaurant, bars and convenience store infront and on the sides of the hotel. LISA AND ROSSIO MADE MY STAY MEMORABLE. The hotel is getting more upgrades, therefore, I can not wait to see it and enjoy it.

Excellent staff and location but basic and noisy.
Staff were very friendly and helpful in making suggestions for trips. However, the hotel was fairly basic. Eg no hot water in the sink, poor room lighting with a bedside lamp that didn’t work. The room did have a table with stools to sit at and a fridge, which was good. Very central location near to all the restaurants and attractions, but being on the main road it was very noisy- cars, motorcycles and lorries passing by at all hours.

Great value for no-frills lodging
Wonderful location in La Fortuna with an excellent view of the volcano. The reception desk was very helpful and let us check in a little early to accommodate the timing of our travel. Parking is onsite and reserved for hotel guests so there was no issue. The room (1 queen) was pretty no-frills, the plumbing was a bit outdated. Bed was comfortable. Great option for the value, and if you just need a place to lay your head and be centrally located in La Fortuna, this is a great option.

Everything was perfect. Rocio was welcoming, thoughtful, helpful, and super organized. Prior to my arrival, she responded to all my questions online which made me feel more at ease traveling solo to a new city. The room was clean, safe and comfortable. And the location was great if you wish to be close to the center of town. I’ve traveled throughout Costa Rica and nobody and nothing compares to Rocio and the Regina Hotel.

I am a solo traveler exploring Costa Rica for the first time and chose Regina Hotel based on the reviews in which they reported how helpful the staff was. From the moment I walked into the hotel, Rocio offered suggestions for activities/transportation, allowed me to drop my luggage-off early to explore and then let me check-in to my room early. On my last night, my shuttle to another city cancelled around 5:00 pm and Rocio called around and helped me figure out a solution for the next 1 1/2 hours. Not only did she call businesses for me, she later sent detailed bus directions (with photos) to my WhatsApp to help me the next day while I traveled. The hotel is spotless, rooms are large with good storage, it’s conveniently located near everything you need and I felt safe as a female traveler. Highly recommend and thanks to Rocio for an amazing stay in Fortuna!
