Driving up to the property on the mountain roads may not be everybody's cup of tea, but I absolutely loved it. Once there the staff was welcoming, property, unique, and beautiful, and the things to do in and around the property are very worthwhile.

Loved this place.  Room with bath was very nice.  The grounds were beautiful.  The location is perfect to visit Monteverde Park and is directly across from the Park headquarters. The restaurant was outstanding.  Everything was great!

This property is also called the lodge that is right across the street from the parking for the cloudy mist Forest. If you are going to the forest this is an excellence place to spend the night the night before that way you have easy access in the morning. Get breakfast is also excellent and advisable to add to your room for the night stay.

I stayed for 3 nights at Selina and my experience was wonderful! The hotel had a lovely, clean room and the hotel grounds were lush, beautiful and green.Getting around by foot is a bit difficult given how remote the hotel is but you are across the street from a shuttle that can take you directly to the cloud forest, the hotel has a transit stop outside of it and the hotel can provide you with a reliable, safe ride share option. There is also a restaurant on site where you can get very good food conveniently. Hotel staff can also help you book tours in Monteverde. We took the Night Walk Tour and it was so fun!

Perfect location to hike the cloud rainforest.

Hostel Selina is a cute spot way up in the mountains with a great common area, hot tubs, a library/reading space, kitchen and yoga studio. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would certainly return our next trip here!

The relaxing vibe, the restaurant, the drinks and the food were amazing. The spa and the yoga spot were very nice as well as the staff who helped us with any questions we had!

I had a great time at the Selina and everyone was very friendly! I didn’t know what time I’d arrive so I didn’t book any activities, but the front desk guy let me know what was still available and arranged it all for me! They have an excellent restaurant on the property which was great for me with no rental car. There were also nice places to just hang out and play pool or read a book with the sounds of nature around you. I had one of the private rooms and loved everything about it!

An ideal place to visit the Cloud Forest

Parking for Monteverde cloud forest is right in front of the hotel. Hotel is deep inside with no convenience stores in walkable distance. Hotels.com had incorrect location listed which made us go in circles to find the place. We used yoga room for yoga. They have kitchen.Road the hotel is terrible with many potholes. Driving in rain was terrible experience specifically when you are coming for the first time and have incorrect directions.

Quite hostel in beautiful surroundings

Reception lady must have had a bad day. She didn’t want to help us. Told us to wait for a coworker.  Then 10 minutes later finally took us to our room herself.  Later that night was annoyed when we had questions about the property.  Felt singled out by her because we are not young like most other guests at this property. Restaurant staff was great!!!  Neat property

Very convenient if you want to visit the cloud forest. Unfortunately it’s far from the town and restaurants so unless you’re driving your only choice is their own restaurant, which thankfully is pretty decent.Good space for parking and nice comfortable room, it’s a shame they don’t really clean them. Hair all over the bathroom and filthy floor.

A good option

This Selina is very close to the Monteverde Cloud Forest, so that’s definitely and advantage. The actual property is very nice, with access to gardens and green areas. It’s pretty quiet and relaxing place. My only concern in the use of light bulbs through the open spaces around the property which may interfere with the animals’ normal habitat  outside at night.

The hostel is really great, one of the best I've ever been to. The rooms are spacious (not a lot of storage room in the twin room) - clean, safe, really good vibes from the staff.From a hotels.com perspective - the early check-in/late check-out should've been complimentary because of my gold status. The hostel staff said they had the availability but I still had to pay for it. Same thing with the complimentary upgrade (plenty of availability but I also had to pay). Not sure if it's a disconnection between hotels.com and this hostel but not the experience I was expecting. That being said - will definitely recommend and come back!

Spectacular hostel -careful with the Gold Rewards

Affordable place to have your own private room. Lovely foliage surrounding and many activities for guests. It is a 40min walk or $10US taxi ride to town. Transportation is included via shuttles if you are booking tours. It is only a 15-20min walk to the Cloud forest, no need for a guided tour, you can easily navigate throughout the entire area in a few hours. During my stay in Monteverde I had some digestive issues (accidentally had milk combined with too much papaya, literally ate papaya every single day which my body isn't used to) during my trip and the restaurant staff were extremely accommodating to my dietary needs even making me a special lemon, honey ginger tea to soothe my stomach. I appreciate how helpful and kind the staff were. Other tourists who knew how to speak spanish helped me translate at the pharmacy, the culture in Costa Rica is so welcoming and nice! Being in the cooler temps of Monteverde is a nice change to the extreme heat on the coast. Don't forget to pack waterproof gear and layers as it can get chilly in the night. Colon currency can be a benefit over American dollars. Only need 3 nights in Monteverde overall.

A fun, funky hotel close to the top of the mountain near the Monteverde Cloud Forest National Park. Spacious rooms with lots of storage space. Tons. Loved how the decor was re-purposed items. Good shared kitchen space, nice restaurant on site with tasty eats. Common area has some atmosphere with games and even karaoke one night.Front desk staff was very friendly and helpful in booking the few excursions we did.Parking on site which was helpful.About a 10 minute drive into town for shops, restaurants and groceries.
