Belmond Hotel das Cataratas

The hotel was beautiful, well maintained and has great amenities. The location inside the park is totally worth the price. The service was excellent and when one of the added on experiences didn’t meet our expectations, the hotel took care of it.

The hotel is inside the park, so we could walk to the falls in the morning and evening without other tourists, which is a great advantage. The room was large, clean, well equipped, with a comfortable bed. Breakfast was fabulous, outside next to the pool. We also enjoyed the restaurant there. Service was excellent. The hotel is not cheap, but really special and luxurious, we thought it was well worth it. The main improvement opportunity is the concierge service. We booked a couple of tours and pick up from the airport. Communication before our arrival was cumbersome and on one of our tours they forgot to order our food, so we had to wait almost an hour before we could start.

The crew made my experience even better! Beside the hotel being excellent and the Cataratas being so close made my sleep better.

We stayed for 4 nights at the Belmond Hotel das Cataratas, and the location is absolutely stunning. The real magic is being inside the national park, so you can experience the Iguazu falls in the early morning and evening, before and after the crowds arrive. It feels incredibly special. The hotel is beautiful, with a traditional colonial style in pink and white. The rooms themselves are nothing particularly special, but we were lucky enough to have one overlooking the falls, which made up for it. We chose to have dinner at the buffet restaurant each evening, which offered a great selection and suited us perfectly. Breakfast was also a very good buffet with plenty of choice. It was too cold for us to use the swimming pool, but it looked lovely. The gym is small, but I was always able to use the machines as it was rarely busy. You can also borrow their pink bikes for an easy jungle trail. There was a lovely atmosphere at the bar in the evenings, with live jazz-style music and good cocktails. They also serve complimentary Prosecco at sunset each evening, which is a lovely touch. But, above all, the location is what makes this hotel so extraordinary. Within a 15-minute walk, you have some of the most spectacular viewpoints of the falls almost entirely to yourself, as well as easy access to the Brazilian-side viewing platform. Walking towards the falls with a glass of Prosecco as the sun sets is an experience I will never forget.

Amazing hotel in a fabulous location. The staff were wonderful especially the guys in the bar. Food was fabulous. Room lovely and best location in Iguazú
