Very close to many restaurants and shops. Would have rated more stars, but the beds were terribly uncomfortable. You should also know Tamarindo is very busy, so its not a quiet hotel. (Traffic noise). Breakfast was the same food every day, would havebeen nice to chamge it.

Dirty shower, creaky bed, inadequate parking, awfully limited breakfast and loud music on Friday night till 2:30. It’s not advertised at the time of making the reservation but they inform you after you get there at the property, which in my opinion is very late. And the reception lady has major attitude problems.

For the price is not bad at all. We had room 401 and it had a very nice view. Reception staff was very friendly and we even had breakfast included. Hotel is very clean, good size pool, bar staff also very nice. We didn't have drinks here. Enjoy the beach!

The view was exceptional and is near to the beach. The staff was friendly. However, the room was unclean when we arrived and we had problems with noisy neighbors and the room only got a call. Would recommend a smaller hotel to have the best service possible.

Stayed for our first night in tamarindo. Check in wasn’t until 3pm, staff wouldn’t let us check in 20 minutes early. Property feels old and out dated and could definitely be cleaner.

They should improve their standard. The services were not up to the mark. Sink was clogged, TV wasn’t working, wifi inside the room was on and off, bed was making so much noise upon flipping sides. They should have done better for the sake of price customers pay.

Pretty property. Well maintained. Clean. Friendly staff. Average breakfast. Free, safe, parking. Nice pool/bar/restaurant area. Friendly staff who speak English very well. Very close to Volcano Brewery if you like that sort of thing. The only, minimal, issue I have is I wish it was 2 blocks closer to the main drag. No sidewalk until then, Can walk off on the side of the road but you get pushed into the road once in a while and it's busy. But I'll be back.

Great Pool

I really enjoyed my stay here. Staff is super nice. Rooms are clean with enough room to feel comfortable. Pool was really deep and always warm. Breakfast was good. Right across the street was a Chinese restaurant that came in handy because after breakfast the hotel restaurant does not serve food. The reception area is at the front entrance of the property which after checking in you have to drive up to an upper lot. That was fine but my only issue was that reception is also in charge of handing out the pools towels. The distance between the pool and the reception hut was a maybe a hundred yards or less but it there were a few flights of stairs to navigate.

We spent 5 days in Tamarindo and really liked the Best Western. We had a small balcony, but didn't use that so much as the upstairs patio area that was near the pool. We could catch a breeze there when it was hot and in general it was a nice comfortable space to hang out when we weren't doing something outside the hotel area. Visitors should be aware that on Friday nights, there is a very loud party with music that does on until about 2 AM. We were not made aware of this until we arrived but it happens every Friday night, and it is loud enough to make the walls vibrate. We also had an air conditioner problem that couldn't be solved and it would work, then not work, then work again. Sometimes it got really hot inside the room. Staff was very nice and they kept trying, but we had to keep asking. The included daily breakfast was really good, and my husband loved it and he is pretty picky about breakfast. All in all, it was a lovely place to stay. Small issues, but a very nice staff, nice location, and pretty comfortable.

The room wasn’t very clean, there was some garbage still I’m guessing when they cleaned didn’t sweep good or mopped. The sink had a drain strain and was dirty and it grossed me out because the water wouldn’t fully go down quickly. I didn’t even have a view through the window, it was high and covered with a lining so you couldn’t look outside. outside my room was an ugly area with a pile of dirt and black drapes, like they maybe remodeling or adding to the hotel. Overall the hotel is in a good area and accessible to downtown and beach is like a 3 minute walk. But just an outdated hotel

Good Tamarindo Hotel Near Beach, Bars and Restos

Nice hotel, very well located in Tamarindo: only a 2 minutes walk to the Tamarindo Beach with lots of restaurants, bars and stores at a walking distance as well. We loved the amazing pool / outdoor area with the swimming bar. The hotel offered free breakfast and free surf board rentals which was a nice plus. Our room was nice. The decor was a bit outdated, but the bed was super comfortable, and our room had a beautiful view of the ocean. Could use a little more cleanliness around the bathroom but overall it was ok for our needs. We think it offers a good price / quality ratio and great location near everything but away from all the noise. We would come back. Speaking of noise, just be aware that the hotel is quiet on all nights except Fridays. The hotel outdoor area turns into a huge nightclub as of 8 PM and until 2:30AM. We weren’t aware of this before the check-in where we were asked to sign a waiver. If you plan to have a good rest on a Friday night, this might not be the right hotel, but if you want to dance to the sounds of a salsa band, old school hip hop or reggaeton, then go for it!
