Very nice place with an amazing view and really comfortable beds. While some people were complaining about cold temperatures, we cannot agree. One of the few stays with very a hot and strong shower, rooms were not cold and tons of bedsheets were provided. Food was also great.

This was a family trip. The rooms were cozy and well equipped. Extra blankets and heating is provided. The rooms are comfortable and surrounded by nature. It creates a great experience and you have the river sound. If you are not used to that sound it is really relaxing. The hotel has a green house where you can buy and see plants. They are lovely. The trails are very nice. Be mindful that to reach the entrance you need to walk 1.5 Km. La Quebrada is a trail that you can walk with small children. No wheel chair nor prawn/stroller. Los Pioneros is a short and flat trail. Suitable for elderly persons. We traveled with one and was the perfect walk. The food was delicious. The breakfast is a buffet with plenty of options and very tasty.

It felt very private with the sound of the river and the other properties being quite far. It offers some great trails up the river, the house had some great views by itself, and we were even lucky enough to catch a Quetzal on their lookout point. Best value for the zone imo.

Awesome! The property is located in a lovely valley. A short hike takes you to a tree with Resplendant Quetzals; we didn't even have to go to a park to see them. If you're a trout lover, you're in luck; there are gfresh trouts on the premises. One of us is vegan and the staff always found a way to cook him up something delicious, off menu.

Great location could hear the stream below. Restaurant walking distance great trout up the road. Loved sitting in and outside watching the hummingbirds in the bottle brushes outside. Attempted to see the elusive quetzel. Alas only saw a flash of bright green in the park as he flew away.

Such a unique place to stay with beautiful surroundings. The cabin was so cosy with a heater and the beds have plenty of covers to keep you warm. It also has a heater, plus a fridge which we found useful. When we arrived we found the cafe very easily and then we were shown down to the cabin. The hosts also helped booking us onto a quetzal watching tour the next morning with an incredible guide, and we got to see both male and female quetzals - what an experience. The food at the cafe including the free breakfast was great, and it was great to go onto the viewing platform to see all the different types of beautiful birds. The other good thing about Miriam's is that it isn't too far down the mountain road, as we only had a small car. We enjoyed this more basic style accommodation as you felt close to nature. Outside the front of our cabin was a little table and chairs and we just sat there when we arrived and listened to the birds. Would definitely recommend.

    It's beautiful, lots of nice restaurants, The Pizzeria Los Colibries, chef Victor, was fabulous and not expensive plus all organic. Nice restaurants all throughout the valley although all were associated with Lodges we did not stay at.

    I really enjoyed the bird feeders off the deck. I felt that for the price of the room, breakfast should have been included in the price, which is very typical in Costa Rica. The diner and breakfast were very good.

    This place is a bird-lover's paradise!

    This place is a bird-lover's paradise! And it's nice to feel cold sometimes in an otherwise warm, tropical country. Everyone is very nice, and very nature-oriented. The trees are all primary growth and fascinating and beautiful to see. This is one of my favorite places in Costa Rica (so far).

    A magical valley, surrounded by an inimaginable amount of flora and fauna. Still a quiet place, with no massive tourism activity yet, greenery is what you will see the most. The Savegre river is astonishing, and its sound is like the perfect match to the landscape. If you are looking for a mountain/forest destination while you are here in Costa Rica, I will recommend San Gerardo de Dota.

    The Quetzal valley has its own micro-climate, so its actually a lot colder and less humid than the rest of Costa Rica. You can walk everywhere, it's super safe and the river rushes near the street across some beautiful forest areas, there's no way you don't detox from city vibes in this place. The restaurants Lauraceas and Alma de Arbol are excellent, with super friendly waiters, modern menus and accesible prices. Los Lagos cabins have an awesome mountain view and are near the river, offer an excellent breakfast and are right in the centre of the valley. Bring appropriate clothing -preferably waterproof and with good hiking shoes so you get the most out of your stay regardless of the weather.

    Birders paradise.

    Birders paradise. This is the best place to see quetzal birds. 1 full day is enough. You must be here for a 5.30am quetzal birding tour if you want to see the quetzals. Cool- about 50° at night, 62-70° during the day.

    Great place for viewing birds. Went out early with Raul one morning. Had read great reviews about his guiding and he was wonderful, able to answer every question with ease. Highly recommend (by far the best guide of our trip). Our best sighting of quetzals and toucanets however was from the entrance to the hotel. Magnificent. Make sure you go to the humming bird garden as you get to see such a variety close up. Room was ok, nothing special but sufficiently comfortable. Food was good but not outstanding. Some lovely trails for walking.

    Beautiful view from our windows, you can’t beat waking up to that! A very peaceful setting, good for relaxing and getting away from it all. There was great food in the restaurant. There were nice trails around the hotel to explore. Staff were really helpful and kind all the time. The hotel is in a great location to spot many beautiful birds. We had some amazing food and coffee in the village of San Gerardo de Dota also. It got chilly in the evenings and we enjoyed using the ethanol fire to make our room nice and cosy!

    The garden of the location is beautiful and there is a nice hiking trail right next to the hotel. You can also book multiple hikes/bird watching activities in the hotel. The morning walk to see the Quetzal was our highlight. The guide was very good and extremely friendly - and we saw the bird and got amazing pictures. One very nice touch was that they would put hot water bottles under your blanket for the rather cold nights.

    The outstanding features of this hotel are the birdlife ( the hotel puts out feeders for both hummingbirds and fruit eaters, and we spent hours on the terrace watching the birds) and the location right beside the beautiful, wild, Savegre river. Our 2 roomed cabin was spacious and comfortable, with a veranda overlooking the river. The previous day our neighbours had seen quetzals in the garden, though we were not so lucky.

    All people in the hotel were very friendly. Cabins are nice and comfortable. The area is a paradise, sorrouded by forest, gardens, birds and certainly the QUETZAL. No doubt we will be back many times.
