Amenities

Hotel das Cataratas is the only accommodations located within Iguacu National Park providing hotel guests with easier and additional access to the falls.

The trailhead that follows along the falls is directly across the street from the hotel entrance.  Within just a few steps you are walking alongside one of South America’s natural wonders.

Hotel guests also get access to falls outside the national park’s visiting hours allowing for private and more personal encounters with the falls.  The views are often unobstructed by visitors providing a more serene falls exploration.

You can also watch the sunrise hit the falls on the Argentina side of the falls or watch the sunset hit the Brazilian side of the falls.

There are a number of activities that are accessible from the grounds of the Hotel das Cataratas.  Across the street along the canyon wall, guests and visitors can access a unique perspective of the falls.

The more adventurous can elect to rappel down the side of the canyon wall and view the falls along the way.  It is not for the faint of heart, but for those who leverage the opportunity, you are in for a special treat.

This is a beautiful property inside and out, but one of my favorite things was the early morning and afternoon access to the falls without the daily visitors. It made taking pictures without people in the photos much easier and it was more peaceful.
