Sheraton Iguazu Hotel

Iguazu National Park, Argentina

Just minutes from the three main walking trails on the Argentine side of the falls, the Sheraton has the perfect location, right in Iguazu National Park, with the splendor of Iguazu Falls easily visible from the restaurant, bar, lobby, and some of the rooms. The exterior of the Sheraton is less than stunning, but the rooms are comfortable and the service is good. Being right at the falls gives you the chance to come back to your room to rest or change out of wet clothes between excursions. The hotel’s pool and sauna/spa is a nice respite after a day of hiking in the park.
