HEINER Posted July 8, 2011 #1 Share Posted July 8, 2011 We are going to Iguazu Falls next Feb. 2012 can anyone recommend a Hotel on the Brazilian side? Thanks for any information you can give us. Betty:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fattony Posted July 8, 2011 #2 Share Posted July 8, 2011 There is one hotel, Hotel das Cataratas, right at the falls. We stayed there 18 years ago and it was no great shakes (except for the location), but I understand it's been refurbished/lupdated and is now managed by Orient-Express Hotels. See http://www.hoteldascataratas.com/web/ogua/hotel_das_cataratas_introduction.jsp I beieve all other options are in the town of Foz de Iguaçu (also listed by the Spanish spelling, Iguassu), outside the park. Lots of options there. If you will be there during Carnaval, which is a big vacation time in Brazil, you are likely to find higher than normal rates and fewer than normal vacancies. Book soon.

Lirio Posted July 9, 2011 #3 Share Posted July 9, 2011 I stayed at Mabu Thermas and Resort. It is great for families with lots of pools and playing areas, etc. It is about 10-15 minutes from the park. You can book tour in the concierge if you wish, but you can do all by yourself just taking a taxi. But take care with Carnaval. Rates skyrocket at this time. I went a week after carnaval and rates was half (50% lower!!!) than in the previous week. Should you are interested in birds, you must reserve 2-3 hours to visit birds park (parque das aves). It is really great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkovitch Posted July 11, 2011 #4 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Does it have to be on the Brazilian side? If so, I'd definitely recommend the San Martin, but there are some good options on the Argentinean side as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HEINER Posted July 11, 2011 Author #5 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Thanks, everyone for your help. (Lirdo) Sent a e-mail to TA to check price on Mabu Thermas look's like a nice Hotel. (Claekovitch) We are flying in on the Brazil side. How far would it be to stay on the Argentina side? Look's like that side has better Hotel's. We are going on a Princess Cruise and have booked with a Tour Co. to first go to Machu Picchu then fly to Iguassu falls. Thanks Betty:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lirio Posted July 13, 2011 #6 Share Posted July 13, 2011 In Argentina you have a sherathon just in front of the falls. There are two hotels close to the falls, one in Brazil Hotel das Cataratas and one in Argentina that is Sherathon. From one side to other is about 30-40 minutes car ride. Sherathon has several reviews in this board. You can also check at trypadvisor where you will also find my review for Mabu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
