Through tropical rainforests and cascading waterfalls- across active volcanoes and mountainous terrain- the Hotel Alta Las Palomas comes into view. This boutique hotel high up in Costa Rica may masquerade as a quintessential European village- but it is a product of its tropical surroundings. From the outdoor pool to the Guanacaste tree terrace- views stretch as far as the eye can see. And the inside celebrates the great outdoors as well. Think neutral tones- handcrafted furnishings and Italian leather chairs- as well as sandy shades that reflect the Costa Rican landscapes. Those with a keen eye will also notice the black-and-white photographs hanging on the wall - keepsakes from Costa Rica in the 1920s. Back in the present day- rise and shine with breakfast on the balcony- with the mountains as your backdrop. Or experience an authentic Costa Rican breakfast at La Luz restaurant and bar- with rice and beans served with avocado- sweet plantain and Turrialba cheese. After that- the natural world is your oyster. Explore the vibrant coast on foot- with a visit to the Santa Ana Eolicas project- or walk along the largest active crater in the world - the Poas volcano. Hotel Alta Las Palomas is a Small Luxury Hotels of the World property.Show More

We enjoyed our stay; the hotel looks nice, and the personnel is friendly and nice.
We didn't like that there was no A/C in the hotel, it was not working and the weather was hot.

The hotel is a bit dated. Room was reported to have air conditioning and did not. The food was ok but they overpriced the drinks. Bottle of water $9.76 & Baileys & Coffee $13.50.

Buyer beware! I paid full price for a 5 night stay and when my wife and I arrived we were told the air conditioning was out and that it was being worked on. This was a lie! The ac never worked the entire duration of our stay. I walked the property and never saw anyone working inside or out. The nights were somewhat cool with a breeze but the direction of the wind was never in our favor. We peeled off our clothes every night due to this. When I asked for a discount the front desk clerk went to the manager, who didn't come out to talk to me and offered only a 10 percent discount on my laundry bill. Alta Hotel had me pay a premium for a second rate stay. Totally unacceptable and it will never happen again.

The only thing I would change is that they don’t clean your room unless it’s asked and the shower door wouldn’t close so every time single time you showered, the bathroom would flood

Beautiful small hotel in a wonderful area. The rooms have a lovely balcony with beautiful views of the valley. It's so nice to sleep with the balcony doors completely open and listen to nature.
Service was very on point and friendly.
Restaurant is very good. Definitely recommend!

This hotel is so beautiful and unique I love it so much. Unfortunately the food was absolutely dreadful and giggle over priced. It was if their chef wasn’t in. Even breakfast had issues with rancid butter. It was so disappointing. The other issue is their online menu prices are significantly less than what the pricing is when you arrive.

The place looked just as the pictures. The staff was great especially in the restaurant. I enjoyed the food and view. 15/10. Definitely would stay there a million times again
