Reviews for Belmond Hotel das Cataratas
Great Location
The only hotel within the national park, the biggest advantage is you can visit the falls without the crowds (expect some days where the park opens to public very early, e.g. Wednesday and Saturday). And the location, the falls is really magic. I went there several times and every time I was astonished about the beauty. They offer many experiences. One experience they offer is the full moon tour, which was such a unique experience. Definitely a must see. When it comes to hotel services, please note the hotel is quite big and very busy, so not very relaxing. At front desk, there are always many people and it is very loud, and you also need to wait some time until you get served. at the pool it is is very crowded, and breakfast is like a supermarket… not very exclusive. The service is very limited. Also the quality of the food at breakfast is far below expectations. Some parts are nice, first of all the hotel is old and has a lot of history and tradition, nice furniture etc, which I really like. the bar is nice and also the staff there are nice. Also the fine dining restaurant is good with good food and good service. I also appreciate that the managers took good care of me during my stay. Some staff members are really nice and attentive. Conclusion: an experience you need to do once in your life, however don’t expect too much as you might be disappointed.

Out-of-the-world experience; definitely worth the money !!
Imagine you can enjoy the mighty Iguazu Falls Brazil side "in your own backyard" privately where only 10 people around you, in the evening and morning when the park is closed to the crowds. Worth every penny of it. Of course this top notch hotel has all the amenities to offer, staff are very professional and friendly.

Lovely hotel
The hotel was very comfortable with great staff. The pool area and breakfast particularly stood out as being of a very high standard. The spa was good but not very good. The buffet was nothing special but I was impressed with the a a carte menu in the main restaurant some of the meal options were very good. The free glass of bubbly to drink every night while watching the sunset over the falls was a nice touch. Only complaint -a hotel this good is never going to be cheap but still felt it was a bit overpriced

We stayed at Hotel Cataratas at the end of our 17 days in Brazil. A perfect ending. Our room was charming and comfortable, and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The hotel neglected to make arrangements for our transport from the airport (which was included in our LL package), but they made up for the error many times over during our stay, including a complementary guide when we visited the Iguassu Falls on the Argentina side. The location of the hotel also provides access to the viewing trails for the falls during hours when the park is closed to other tourist. A real bonus that is not available to those staying in the hotel in the Argentinian park. Next time I stay at Hotel Cataratas I'll coordinate my trip with a full moon!
