Description
The Selva Negra Mountain Resort is a unique place, built in 1975, up in the mountains of Matagalpa. The resort is located on a coffee estate and next to beautiful hills covered with virgin cloud-forest. Go to our Activity guide to read more about the Selva Negra Activities that include hiking and horseback riding through the forest.
Selva Negra is attended by the owners, who are descendants of German settlers that came to this region in the 19th century. You can still see the German background in the interior of the rooms and the Selva Negra restaurant. In this restaurant there are also many old photos, newspaper articles, tools, and other items displayed that give an impression of how the Germans settled got here and became coffee growers.
The resort offers different types of lodging. Each type, however, offers tranquil lodging, surrounded by nothing but nature.
The chalets are the most beautiful and spacious, filled with history and built in the old German style. They can sleep 6 to 12 people.
Another option is staying in one of the bungalows that have their own front porch, can hold between 2 and 8 people.
There are also American style hotel rooms with private bath and shared front porch.
A good option for students is the youth hostel. This is one large building that can accommodate up to 20 individuals. Students find dorm rooms that sleep 4-6 people for an accessible price.

I went to Selva Negra just this past Thanksgiving. What a amazing Place! I recommend to anyone and plan to come back.
The place is just beautiful. I meet the owner and he was willing to chat with you for hours.
It is a very relaxing place. Can be chilly in the cloud forest so bring some warm clothes.
Only negative I found were that the sheets didnt seem clean. I had my own sleep sack so I didn't care. Also bring ear plugs the howler monkeys can keep you awake at night with their singing.

Just completed our 2nd stay at Selva Negra. It was beautiful as always. An incredible place in its own right, nestled into the cloud forest, but even more impressive when you take the tour and learn how this fully operating coffee farm is managed. They produce A+ coffee. Nothing is wasted; the environment is not just protected but enhanced; and generations of people are provided jobs, education, healthy living, and so much more. And if you don't give a rip about any of that, you'll still love the place--just go and enjoy a beautiful and relaxing couple of days.

I was at Selva Negra 6/5/07-6/12/07. It was one of the most fantastic, learning experiences I've ever had. Mausi took me on an in-depth farm tour. Selva Negra is a model for sustainable agriculture. Almost nothing is thrown away. Their composting is amazing. I can't say enough wonderful things about Mausi and Eddy Kuhl and their Selva Negra.

Me & my Wife were there in january this year and enjoyed this place, vowed to return again this year.
As for cathy, remember this a mountain resort not a 5 star hotel, I'm a large man 5"11 an 202 pounds and found the bed comfortable (or was it because of my companion?) anyway next time go to the hilton or crowne plaza they will pamper you but not at 50.00 a night with nature around.

Beautiful grounds with trails to hike, lovely little lake and cool mountain air. But, the most uncomfortable bed we slept on in Nicaragua. This hotel has a wide variety of rooms and cabins to chose from -- ask to see a few before choosing one. The restaurant -- perched right beside the lake -- serves several German dishes as well as other items. The hiking trails are the best part.
