The location is spectacular. If you are going to see the Falls stay where you can walk out your door and be at the Falls. Yes, it's expensive but consider you will also be paying cab fares to and from the park and park enternace fees if you stay outside the park. Rooms, service and food were all excellent. I... More

Beautiful location, lovely staff and the highlight of our trip through Brazil. From the arrival, the warm of the crew make us feel like home, after check in a receptionist showed the way to our room and introduced the details of the room (that had a marvelous Cataratas view). Just after the check in we realized that the air conditioning... More

This seems to be the only nice place to stay while visiting the falls which are located right in front of the hotel. We stayed in a superior room that faced the garden. The room itself is on the small side but the bathroom was big enough to fit two people. The complimentary havianas were a great touch. I really... More

This hotel is in a fabulous location and it is very comfortable. Yes it is expensive but I cannot understand reviewers who criticise the food. We ate in the a la carte restaurtant one night and had the buffet in the poolside restaurant on our second night. Both meals were excellent as was the extensive breakfast. The pool area is... More

Great location, beautiful building, amazing food, thoughtful and friendly service. You do not need to get out of the hotel for anything, except with various experiences that are available. Walking on the trail in the morning and experiencing sunset at the "mirante".... great and simple things that will be long lasting memories...

We stayed at this hotel in the middle of April, and having stayed there previously a few years ago when it was owned by Varig, I can see that Orient Express did a brilliant job on refurbishment! The room we stayed was lovely, very clean, and the service second to none. The lobby and other areas are very well maintained... More

We stayed at Hotel das Cataratas for two days. The overall experience was wonderful - the location of the hotel, the the breath-taking view of the falls, and the boat ride trip to getting close to the falls and so on. We would definitely recommend it.
