La Posada Ecologica de la Abuela - for $60 a night you will sleep in a private air-conditioned bungalow, and be in paradise. The food, atmosphere and service at this hotel are magnificent. They have bikes, kayaks and rafts that you can use free of charge. This hotel would also be a great place to host a get together, wedding, or business meeting.

From the bottom of the hill clockwise. Monkey Hut Dorm $10 upwards with rooms up to $75 (2007). Takes day trippers. Craters Edge, this is for the grown ups. Rooms $20 to $45, a great dorm at $11 also takes day trippers. Both places have websites. Moving on take a right at a children's playground down a slope and past 4 or 5 comedors to the Spanish school which apparently also rents rooms. There are two other more expensive options.

Take a taxi offered by the independent hotel, The Monkey Hut, for $1. See their website for information about pick up times and locations.You can also get a shared mini bus from Hotel Oasis in Granada same deal.
Better options for an independent traveller is by bus from Masaya, 3 buses a day, 1 is very early about 6am the other is at 10.30 am and another mid afternoon. There are more frequent busses to the crater rim and you will need to walk down the hill.You can apparently walk from Granada cemetery approx 2-3 hours.
There are many small restaurants along the edge of the river. The most delicious is at the Hotel Posada de la Abuela
Either where you stay or there are a few comedors by the lake towards the Spanish School. The last one (not surprisingly) is probably the best and cheapest.Despite being in the middle of nowhere there are touts outside the first two, ignore them.
