“Amazing Views”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 April 2013 via mobile

My husband and I stayed for two nights although I wish we could've stayed longer. The man (I forgot his name) at the reception was extremely welcoming, very polite and friendly. We stayed in the honeymoon suite and the decorations were beautiful; the sheets and decor were changed daily. The complimentary breakfast was delicious, specially the fresh fruits! There is... More

“what a view”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 March 2013

the volcano facing side of the room was all windows and we woke up to the greatest view. Great staff. The food was really good with a great selection. Brian, the office guy, was extremely helpful and full of advice and quite soft-spoken. Great locale. Great choice.

“Great view of the volcano...if you can see it.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 March 2013

Hotel Linda Vista del Norte (or as my boyfriend and I came to call it, "staying at Linda's") is built on the wrong side of the volcano. The side that suffered the worst of the 1968 eruption. The side where three villages were obliterated. Don't expect to see much in the area in terms of restaurants, shopping and nightlife (there's... More

You can't beat the views from this place - they are spectacular. We had a cloudless day and a slightly cloudy one. I'm sure the view counts for a lot less if you get cloudy days. The problem is that the volcano is no longer active so be very aware of that if you are going. We knew, so were... More
