Selina La Fortuna - Hostel♡

Good central location

6.0

Central location in La Fortuna, good communal space area. The hotel has been recently rebranded to Societel - the private room was decent overall and has an A/C, but the overall room is clearly a bit worn out. There are food and drinks onsite but lots more choice in town especially if you’re looking for local food. We didn’t book tours as we wanted to do the sites ourselves, we travelled by uber to the volcano entrance, waterfall and hot springs - which was pretty easy if you don’t have a car!

Stayed in one of the cabins — it had a rip in the screen and we got eaten alive by bugs overnight. Didn’t seem worth the money, especially because the “hostel” no longer has a kitchen. Slightly weird vibe. Great location though

I stayed in a teepee, which was just as cute as pictured. It was quite small though, pretty much just enough room to lay in the bed. I struggled to sleep well because the fan was in the corner of the room by the head of the bed, and the height of the fan made it so the top of it rested on the teepee which made a less than peaceful noise when it was on, which led me to turn it off. The property itself was pretty, but the bathrooms were quite old and in need of a renovation. I have never seen a hand dryer that had to be plugged into the wall, and when I did plug it in, it still didn't work. The people who worked in the bar were not friendly (not mean, but not really warm or welcoming) which surprised me for what I had heard about Selina's/Socialtels from a friend who stayed in the past. I think for the price of the accomodation, there is room for improvement.

This property is cute, and fun. Not the most chic or the most squeaky clean, but a great value overall. The staff was very attentive, and there were a lot of options for everything: food, spa, tours… also very centrally located!

Very impressed with how nice our private deluxe room was. Bed was comfortable, shower was nice and big, and everything was clean. They offered complementary drinks every day, had a nice big pool, a full kitchen space to access, and free parking. The location is right in the middle of town so you can walk to everything. Would definitely recommend this place for your visit to La Fortuna.
