Yes! Of the 12 hot springs that we cover in the above article, Baldi, Tabacon, the Springs Resort, Paradise, and Los Lagos have hotels on-site, and all five provide their overnight guests with free hot springs use. Some even reward guests with extra perks. For example, guests of Tabacon are able to access the hot springs two hours before the public each morning, and they’re also able to access the private Shangri-La Gardens, an exclusive, adults-only section of the hot springs that’s reserved for hotel guests. Here is some additional information about these properties in case you’re interested in learning more about their hot springs and hotels:

I don’t believe you’ll be disappointed by either one. Tabacon and the Springs Resort are La Fortuna’s top two hot springs. Also to confirm, both are about the same distance away from downtown La Fortuna (about 15-20 minutes by car). This being said, with kids, I’d go with the Springs Resort. In addition to offering a ton of pool variety (to keep the kiddies moving and entertained), you can combine your hot springs visit with time spent at the resort’s on-site activity center (Club Rio) where the kids can experience river tubing, river kayaking, horseback riding, hiking, rock climbing, and wildlife exhibits. Plus, the resort’s monkey slide waterslide is a blast! While we love Tabacon too, especially for its free-flowing river, some kids don’t like the feeling of slimy rocks beneath their feet, and some parents don’t like how slippery the rocks can be. Here are links to our reviews of Tabacon, the Springs Resort, and Club Rio:
