The modern Gran Melia is set within the grounds of the Iguazu National park (Argentina) and is the only hotel located inside the park. This allows you to enter the trails first when it opens. It is part of the Melia hotel group who have completed a major refurbishment of the property.
There are 183 well appointed rooms with either a view of the Falls (although this term is somewhat generous as the falls are in the distance) or Jungle. All rooms feature a private balcony (small) and large windows. The hotel features a brand-new 50m outdoor infinity pool with views of the falls. The large landscaped gardens also have a tennis court and various seating areas.
There is a restaurant (expensive) which serves international dishes combined with regional dishes. There is also a lobby Bar and a new Spa which offers a variety of treatments.
Although this hotel is positioned further away from the falls than the Belmond Hotel das Cataratas (in the national park on the Brazilian side) its views are largely unobstructed and the boardwalks are more extensive with numerous viewing platforms.
