Gran Meliá Iguazú

Pictures did not lie: the Gran Melia is located square in the middle of the Iguazu National Park, on the path towards the lower and upper trails around the waterfalls (think 5-minute walk to the start of the lower trail). The hotel itself is magnificent, with an outdoor swimming pool with a view of the falls (soaking in the pool while admiring the waterfalls is an experience to remember!), very comfortable lounging chairs, a nice restaurant and a rooftop bar. Rooms are well-equipped and comfortable, and staff was efficient, if not particularly friendly (some spoke no English, so interactions were sometimes difficult). But, all in all, a great stay in the heart of the Iguazu Park, with a splendid view of the falls.

Outstanding Experience at Iguazú Gran Meliá 🌿✨ Our stay at Iguazú Gran Meliá was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles and a level of hospitality that truly stood out. The staff, especially the waiters, were incredibly attentive, professional, and kind—always ready to go the extra mile to make our experience unforgettable. The service throughout the hotel was impeccable, from the reception to the restaurant and pool areas. Every detail was thoughtfully taken care of. The rooms were spotlessly clean, spacious, and beautifully maintained, with stunning views of the surrounding nature. We especially appreciated the peaceful ambiance, the luxurious setting, and the dedication of the team to make each guest feel special. Iguazú Gran Meliá is the perfect blend of comfort, elegance, and genuine care. Highly recommended for anyone seeking an extraordinary stay near the falls!

The view was amazing! Room was comfortable and quiet. Facilities in hotel provided range of different activities and places to relax. Breakfast included a wide variety of options. Service was friendly. Sometimes communication in English was difficult, but we're in a foreign country, so to be expected and all staff were polite.

Absolutely magnificient! The location, the view of Iguazu Falls and the infinity pool. The staff, professional, helpful and entertaining at the same time. It is hands down the best hotel I have ever stayed at and the experience is worth every dollar. I also really liked the fact that the hotel has taxi drivers affiliated who are professional and their rates are very competitive. Airport pick up and drop off should be arranged directly with the hotel not through third party!

The hotel is amazing! The location is exclusive and it provides excellent service! The rooms are great with the views. Though we booked a room with forest view, at the check-in we were offered a discounted upgrade to the waterfalls view with Red Level which was totally worth it! The breakfast was the best we had in our 3-week trip around Argentina and Melia did not disappoint us as always! The exclusivity this hotel provides is that you get 1 hour advantage to get to the park and see the waterfalls before the crowd, though it is not advertised (for a good reason!). We had the park for ourselves from 8 am for 1 hour which is totally worth the money the hotel charges, but provides par service for that money! We definitely would recommend to stay there for its excellent service, location and quality. The spa onsite, the pools and terraces are all great too. The animals around the hotel are just amazing and friendly. The final touch - a gift at the end of our stay was just a cherry on a cake. Thanks to all in Gran Melia Iguazu for this great stay!
