Cheap Hotels in Alajuela Province from NZ$97

"The property is close to downtown La Fortuna. It's right off the main road, which I loved. There's a security guard at the gate at all times. This made us feel safe. The rooms were spacious and fully stocked with bathroom toiletries, minie fridge and coffee maker. No microwave however. The breakfast was buffet style with many fruit options and pastries. It also had an omelet station. We enjoyed it very much. The whirlpool hot tub was amazing! The staff were very friendly and helpful. We truly felt welcomed and enjoyed our stay very much. I highly recommend staying here when in town."

"We had a wonderful stay at Lomas del Volcán! The service was warm and welcoming from the moment we arrived, and the entire property felt like a peaceful retreat nestled in the jungle. The rooms are private, spacious, and offer stunning views of Arenal Volcano. One of our favorite features was the heated pool — it was the perfect way to unwind after a day of exploring. We also loved how close the hotel is to town. It was just a short drive to great restaurants, shops, and activities, yet still felt secluded and quiet. From the beautiful grounds to the attentive staff and excellent amenities, Lomas del Volcán exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing and convenient stay near Arenal!"

"I recently stayed at the Holiday Inn Express by SJO in Costa Rica and had such a wonderful experience. The beds were unbelievably comfortable — truly some of the best I’ve ever slept on. While the rooms are a bit small, they’re spotless and thoughtfully laid out. The pool is absolutely gorgeous and perfect for a refreshing break in the sun. The true highlight, though, was the breakfast experience — and I say “experience” because it was so much more than just a meal. Raul, the chef, came out to greet each guest with a huge smile and made everyone feel so welcome. The fruit selection included exotic options we weren’t familiar with, and Raul came over to show us how to eat them, turning it into a fun, interactive moment. He even made a banana sculpture that looked like a dolphin — such a sweet and unexpected touch! And the fresh coconut water? What a treat! This level of hospitality is rare and really elevated our stay. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Costa Rica. It’s clean, comfortable, and filled with heart."
