Fodor's Expert Review Costa Real

Centrally located and replete with all the modern touches you might expect from an executive-class hotel—business center, meeting rooms, and Wi-Fi access throughout—Costa Real is an eminently efficient, practical option for any visit to La Serena. The rooms are impeccably clean with an understated minimalist design that fits the professional atmosphere. Outside, an attractive terrace and pool area provide welcome opportunities to relax and escape from the heat. The staff is friendly and attentive. The restaurant lacks soul but serves good food if you are in a fix.
