The food was outstanding. Very fresh, very creative and very tasty. The room was lovely with amazing bedding. We enjoyed a huge tub as well. It was clean and well appointed. The staff were great - helpful and friendly. There was a guitarist that played through dinner and then again in the morning while we had breakfast. It really set a calm mood.

Beautiful hotel with amazing views of the volcano. Beautifully decorated, large room with jacuzzi and large shower. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful at all times. My only complaint is that they were hosting a wedding the night we stayed there and we had no idea going into it, so we weren’t able to eat at their restaurant that night. The music was loud but ended early, other than that this hotel is beautiful. The rooftop restaurant and bar are great also!

I submitted a review after the first night, that the room did not have a desk or table. I was very frustrated and was not kind. The reception desk manager made arrangements to move me to another room that had everything I need. Danilo went above and beyond to provide me what I needed. I had fruit for breakfast and everything was excellent. The rooftop restaurant and bar had unbelieveable views of the area.
