Hotel River View, hotel in Tortuguero

Hotel River View offers riverside accommodations surrounded by lush tropical gardens in Tortuguero. All rooms feature comfortable bedding and a private bathroom.

The location could not be better! This hotel has its own boat ramp so when we arrived and departed we could do it right from the hotel. It is also right in town, so it was easy and fun to walk to restaurants. The staff members were friendly and helpful (and patient with our limited Spanish). We had a problem with our shower and they worked quickly to find a solution. They were exceedingly helpful with arranging and advising us about activities and transportation.

    The town is ok - plenty of eateries.

    The town is ok - plenty of eateries. The accommodation at Cabinas Sports Fishing was wonderful! The early morning boat trip was very enjoyable, as was the Jaguar trail in the National Park. The Budda Cafe has a nice vibe and good food. We were there in April so missed the turtle nesting season but still very much worth a visit!

    What a gem.

    What a gem. We had three nights here but in hindsight could have done two (a lot of people just do one). Two nights gives you a chance to soak up the atmosphere and explore the village from end to end. It was an experience getting there - a 1hr boat trip (which can be longer depending on the water levels). On arrival we were surprised at the number of bars and restaurants - a huge variety. Many on the waterfront and how wonderful to have no cars. Our hotel met us at the wharf and transferred our luggage. The hotels are right amongst the locals houses - so you really get to know the village and can hear all the 'goings on'. Just walking around you see the houses, some of the challenges living there, the flora and fauna. We did a motor boat tour at 9am - would recommend doing this at 6am as the forest wakes up. Its amazing on the water - seeking the birds close up, camen, monkeys and iguanas. You will see more animals on a tour of the forest but its still worth the experience. The motor boat tour includes national park entry - but I would recommend using a guide in the park as despite what you think its really hard to spot animals without the 'experienced eye'; and of course its their livelihood. I also did a night tour - there were a lot of other night tours - we walked along the route to the airport so it didn't feel super secluded - but we did see an armadillo, spiders, a snake, sloth and an iguana. Just goes to show nature is all around us - but again I would never have seen it without the experienced guide. Overall its quite an experience and would suggest Tortuguera is a 'must have' on a Costa Rica itinerary.

    Loved the fact that the boat dropped us off at the hotel's dock and picked us up here as well. Checkin was a breeze but make sure you have the cash to pay for the room and any tours. Canoe/boat tours, day hikes, night walks were arranged by the hotel in advance for very nominal rates. The tours start right at the hotel and hence very convenient. The hotel sits on the banks of the river and the views are lovely especially during dusk and dawn. We experienced torrential rain one afternoon and during the night. The rain in the afternoon did not last long. The canals are accessible by boat, canoe and kayaks. Tortuguero is laid back and a nice place to wind down and experience time float by. Great place to see Great Green Macaws fly by during dawn and dusk. We also saw the last of the turtle hatchings make their way to the sea. Wonderful sight to experience. The town and beach are easily accessible. The canals are teeming in wildlife. We saw green basilisks, iguanas, jacanas, toucans, caimans, herons and monkeys (howler, spider and capuchin). On the night walk we saw frogs (Savage's bullfrog, red-eyed tree frog, some snakes, and a sloth at close range. The hotel staff were nice. The free breakfast was an added bonus. Laundry service was available for a fee. The town was easily accessible by foot. Local food at the sodas was fulfilling. Overall a wonderful experience!

    It was like going to the Amazon River and experiencing wildlife and diversity. It was a multi cultural place with a taste of how locals villagers live , ocean access, river access and the best part is watching conservation of turtles. Turtle night tour is a must do!!?

    Town was better than pictured.

    Town was better than pictured. Walking to everything is easy. Favorite restaurants were Miss Miriams next to the football field and Budda Cafe overlooking the river. Went on three turtle tours and the canoe tour. All great. Used Tuanis Tours for 2 turtle and canoe and Leonardo for private turtle tour. Grocery store carries beer and liquor at reasonable prices.

    The Tortuguero area is considerably different from the rest...

    The Tortuguero area is considerably different from the rest of Costa Rica. Isolated from land transport, all access is done either by boat or plane. Opt for the boat if you can. It's cheap (around 8000 colones round trip from La Pavona), and despite being on a public transport you'll have a tour experience. The trip can take up to 1,5 hours, with safety conditions guarateed (life vests) and you'll be winding through the florest canals until you reach the Tortuguero sandbar. much like running down the Amazonas, The village is very small but with a great ambient of friendly people (general fact in all CR) with plenty of options for food/drinks, accomodations. Tortuguero life runs around sightseeing (National Park, turtle tours, and cannoeing in the canals). At night you'll have plenty of options for sunset and dinning. You're in a protected area for marine turtles and the mindset is all around that. Forget about bathing in the river or the beach, as one it's inhabited by crocodiles and the other with bull sharks,

    We really enjoyed our stay! We stayed here for a few days as part of our stint on our honeymoon. The owners were so lovely and accommodating. They introduced us to Yareilas ice cream shop (which we went daily) and our tour guide for Tortuguero national park - Alexis who has a wealth of knowledge and showed us many things. The rooms are clean! The views are amazing! Sunset. The breakfast and dinner arranged by the chef was so tasty! We really enjoyed ourselves and was relaxed.

    Look no further for the Perfect stay in the Tortuguero National Park. This place has everything, ranging from an amazing tropical garden, to cosy stylish rooms, the nicest staff, a pool and a backdoor access to the most beautiful uncontaminated caribbean beach. This is really one of the best stays I've had in years! The hotel also arranges all sort of activities and the transportation directly from San José, including meals and guided tours, all at a very reasonable price

    A lovely spot at a reasonable price. Best of all was the helpfulness of staff. Our son was ill while we were there and we were walked to the nearest clinic. They also helped arrange our transport out to Moin and change it for us when another option became available. Good breakfasts and bottomless coffee :) The hotel is currently having some building projects (a new pool and bar area!) which was busy but quiet during the day. We would love to go back when its finished!

    Best hostel to stay in Tortuguero! I will definitely stay at the same place if I go back to Tortuguero. Mariana took really good care of us, she cooked us a beautiful, delicious breakfast every morning. The rooms have lockers, the beds are clean and comfortable. The kitchen is quite good too. We felt safe there, the location is great, 30 seconds walk from a grocery store. There are two nice areas outside to chill in the shade.

    The host was very friendly and helpful, showing us where the local shop and drinking water supply was. Anything extra we needed for the kitchen he provided. Cleaned the apartment and bedding during our stay. He offered many other things and was very helpful all round. The property is in the heart of the local community and very close to the national park entrance, as well as an easy stroll into town or to the beach.

    Casa Marbella is a really nice place to stay in Tortuguero, calm and right on the main road of the town, with a terrace towards the river overseeing the entry to the national park. The breakfast was good. The Staff is very welcoming and helping to make our stay very much enjoyable. Also the tours we booked with Marbella were really nice and we enjoyed it. We would stay here again.

    It was very clean and the staff was responsive. Though on the main walkway of Tortuguero it was very quiet and everything was within a few minutes walk. The kitchen was simply equipped and I was happy that oil, salt and pepper spices were included. The cleaning staff made sure everyday I had what I needed and cleaned the floors and bathrooms as I asked. I would book here again.

Wildlife was never far. :) Iguanas climbed the trees and parrots were everywhere. We found a jaguar's footprints about a mile away from the hotel beach. :D Well, the national park is close. The members of staff were nice and always helpful.

    Kitchens in the rooms were well set up for cooking. They even provided tea, coffee, sugar, s&P and oil. Good location to walk to the North (non National Park side) and this is where we did a night walk and saw a lot of wildlife. They had someone meet us in LaPavona and take us all the way to the hotel and help us with booking tours, so that was a nice touch.
