“Das Cataratas' falls-front stay”

Hotel das Cataratas, A Belmond Hotel, is the only hotel inside Iguazu Falls park — exclusive round-the-clock falls views a twenty-minute walk to the farthest lookout, tasty generous food including a distinctive Y restaurant, free bikes, a bird-park shuttle and a morning hike, WhatsApp service, and clean grounds. The flipsides: rooms are smallish with older facilities and thin doors that leak corridor noise, and one guest paying a premium reported housekeepers disturbing them five times — once entering without even knocking — an intrusion they called below three-star standard.
