Hotel Vistas del Cielo, hotel in Cartago

Located in Cartago, 10 miles from Jardín Botánico Lankester, Hotel Vistas del Cielo has accommodations with a garden, free private parking and a restaurant. This 3-star hotel offers free WiFi.

We booked this room last minute when our plans changed in Costa Rica. The drive to the location was a bit intense with the steep unpaved roads but the views, staff, and location were worth it. The room is surrounded by a farm and hiking trails that more then met our expectations.

    The staff was fabulous! The grounds were immaculate.

    The staff was fabulous! The grounds were immaculate. Saw some birds in common area. Food delivered to room was pretty good. Hot. What killed us was the room was freezing with no heat or space heater or extra blanket. There was a large very cold bathroom with absolutely no hot water. Wires sticking out of the shower head. No counter or table to place toiletries. Very dark and dank. A small outdoor light fixture with probably 40 watt bulb was way above the tiny sink. No other lighting. No window light. And nowhere comfortable to sit with room. Slat wood bench on front porch and in room. But this location was at better pricing value than a few others we stayed at. Overall, if there had been heat and some warm water I would have doubled my opinion.

    Visit Irazú then head to a hike in Prusia and on to Turrialba, stay at the Turrialtico for an incredible view and value (and Posole and jalapeño steak,) then book a raft trip with Econaturales on the Pacuare River, ask for Michael and Eduardo as your guides, they keep you in the raft and out of the river, you’ll be happy and tired so stay another night to eat, drink, and recover- our mistake was hopping in the car and getting back on the road after 27km on the Pacuare, a perfect day!

    Don't miss out on the Basilica which is the most important church of Costa Rica. It's fun to see the train make its way slowly through the town. The main reason for visiting Cartago is of course the Irazu Volcano; it's quite easy to hop on the public bus to get there.

    We actually did not get to stay at this hotel due to a waterline breakage. What makes my review so high is that they called to inform me of this issue, when I couldn't understand the staff member who was speaking Spanish in a Spanish speaking country, they called a second time with a staff member who could communicate with me in my native English and informed me as to what the issue was. The woman was very helpful, supplied me with alternate lodging and even offered to make the arrangements for me. Phenomenal!

    The owner, Mili, was very helpful in all aspects of our stay, including the booking process, and offering recommendations for restaurants, transportation, and other activities before and after we arrived. The restaurant recommendations were unnecessary, as the food onsite was delicious. The hiking trails nearby were excellent. The hotel also offers bicycling, rafting, and horseback riding. Before we arrived and when we left, Mili was quietly standing by to coordinate any potential difficulties with logistics.

    A lovely family feeling. It has everything you need and a very warm welcome. Open kitchen and we were offered a tasty soup with the whole family. Really kind. Nice seats on the terrace. Parking space inside. Especially wonderful if you are alone or staying longer because the Señora is so kind, open and would help with anything. Highly recommend it for an oasis in Cartago. The city centre is also pleasant with some antique buildings.

    Excellent breakfast👌 one of the best I had in Costarica. Very, bery clean room and toilet. I felt like at home. Host was so nice and treated us like her guests not like the hotel guests😌. We had a very nice talk and she told us many interesting things about Costarica and Cartago. If I would have a chance I will stay there once again for sure!

    This is a great place. Excellent value. Very calm nice ambience. The garden is very nice to enjoy and relax. Breakfast is wonderful and a great price (and so is the laundry). The staff are super. A good option is to stay here and use it as a base camp for Cartago, but also the area around which has many nice things to do and see. Super comfortable.

    We have arrived tired from Corcovado National Park. The receptionist, Karina, was extremely helpful with parking in, getting in our luggage, any extra needs. Breakfast was tasty and served nicely. The beds were good, the hotel looks very pleasant, and is located at the best possible area, 1 min on foot to the big cathedral. All was prima.

    The hotel is located in the center of Cartago, close to the mail sights. There’s a small garden with lemon trees and outdoor seating area. You can use coffeemaker, kettle and cooking stove along with refrigerador and plenty of nice cups with plates and ceramic bowls. Rooms are cleaned every day and the bed is made while you’re away.

    They have created a nice place with a pool, small gym, pooltable and some sitting areas with views on the town. Garden is well maintained. Shower was nice and warm. Location was nice, just of the main road. Opposite the hotel was a cemetary, which we did not mind, but might not be good for paranormal sensitive people :).

    Very cute little nest a few minutes away from Cartago in a quiet area. We really liked the effort in decoration and making the place special, with the hammock. Also a very friendly host. Unfortunately we were on our way back to Europe so we only stayed for the night and couldn’t discover the surroundings.

    I liked Every thing else!! The place is extra clean, silent, homely cozy, it has a little garden, shared kitchen, friendly host, etc. The surroundings are really nice, the first downtown neighborhood in Cartago that I like. Great place for a short stay or even a long stay if that's part of your plans.

    Really cute hostel. Very friendly and helpfull staff. Good home cooking (especially the home-made hot sauce :). Lots of humming-birds around the hostel. 7km of walking trails around the hotel (if you are a couch potatoe like me DON'T take the 'difficult' trail) , Very good value for money.

    Casa Mora was clean and comfortable. The staff was available and accommodating. It is located very close to the Cartago Basilica and is walkable to restaurants and cafes. Breakfast was a traditional Costa Rican breakfast including fruit, eggs, gallo Pinto, coffee, and juice.
