Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I wish I had paid attention to the reviews. This place is disgusting. The pool and outside are lovely but our room was a disgrace. Dirty, lots of mold, smelled mildew the moment we walked in. The food in the restaurant is barely passable. It is in the jungle with bugs everywhere. Broken bathroom window allowed in bugs. If I had it to do over I’d spend the extra and stay at the Miela.

Let me just say the staff was great, friendly and very helpful. They were quick to help or get anything I needed, including my laundry. The rooms are large but very basic. Ceramic tile floors. The bathrooms are large but could use some upkeep. Each room has a balcony. There is a pool, we didn't use it but I looked pretty clean.. every morning they had someone out cleaning the pool area. They have a buffet for both breakfast and dinner. Great location in the middle of the jungle, even had an iguana walk past us on the path to our room. It is a walk to any kind of services. Only close to other hotels and guaraní villages, which are a great experience. If you don't want to walk the staff is extremely helpful in arranging transportation.

We arrived at the hotel after midnight, the last destination on our two week vacation. We were excited about the "in the jungle" description when we booked the hotel, not minding an "off the beaten track" experience. Our first impression was of a place that looked worn out and neglected, perhaps faded from a former glory. Still, it had a lot of character and a charm we were attracted to. We walked down a dark path to our hotel room and discovered that the bathroom windows had been left open and the entire bathroom was covered in insects. These included drain flies, moths, cockroaches and many others, but most disturbingly, mosquitoes. Fortunately, they had not entered the main room in any great number, but you can imagine our tired selves trying to kill all these insects with thoughts of Zika in our minds (the airport had large signs warning specifically about this virus and several others). After we killed as many as we could, we looked more carefully at the room. It was threadbare, containing the basics in a worn out way. There was no internet in the room (it turns out you need to go to the lobby to get connection). The bed was uncomfortable and to our disgust we found long hairs on the sheets, under the main blanket. My husband took his shower first. He was out within 5 minutes. When I went to take mine, there was no hot water left. We didn't get to sleep until about 1:30. The next morning I spoke to the hotel desk about all these concerns. They said we could choose another room, but I quickly discovered they were all the same. We asked for a complete bed linen change and left explicit instructions for the cleaning staff to leave the windows closed when finished. This rectified the first two main problems. There was nothing to do about the internet. We could live with that as our data using Claro was sufficient. The hotel water was the worst of it to me. There was a 1/4 sized hot water heart shared between at least two rooms (not sure if more were drawing from the same one or not). It was only enough if you were the first person in the set of rooms to take a shower. After that, warm water was hit or miss. The two other areas of disappointment were the pools and the breakfast. The breakfast was complimentary, but consisted only of cold foods . . . primarily sugary pastries, ham and cheese. The ham and cheese are pretty standard in Argentina, but their quality was low. The rest of the breakfast was sub par, when compared to many of the other hotels we have stayed at in the country. The pools (one for kids and one deeper) were frustrating. They were obviously beautiful when designed/first built. However, when we were there they were only half filled and had may leaves floating in them. There was no smell of chlorine or salt. The staff insisted (I asked several different people over our 4 day/5 night stay) that it was fine for swimming and was completely healthy/safe. I couldn't bring myself to go in and saw no one else do so, even though the weather was about 30 C each day. In the end, we were frustrated and disappointed because we paid a fair amount for our reservation (there were definitely cheaper options available) expecting to swim, have clean, insect free, nicely appointed rooms and a less stressful experience. I think what made it worse is that all around you saw the potential for quality neglected and gone to waste. Positives? The staff was friendly and greeted us with a smile. The location was excellent in terms of getting to the attractions in all 3 countries and it met our need for something away from the highway and city noises.

This hotel is not close to town. about a 30 minute walk in part on the side of a highway. The hotel itself is pretty basic! We had 1 glass in our room and no fridge. i chair in the room. The jungle that the hotel is located in has a mouldy smell that is probably typical of a jungle location. No WIFI in the rooms but there is one in the lobby. Staff are very helpful and cooperative. We ordered packed lunches from the hotel for our tour of the falls. The town of Puerto Iguazu is pretty basic.

Starting with the good - the staff were pleasant and helpful; the meals were good considering how inexpensive they were; and the wifi good despite only being available in the main building. The not so good - the accommodation was very poor; glass doors leading to a bare patio that did not close properly and could not be locked; no security for valuables; beds could be better especially bed linen which looked rather used; spartan furnishings - a plastic chair in addition to the beds; mould across ceiling which probably let to the unpleasant odour; lack of comfortable 'lounge' area if one did not wish to sit on verandah with mosquitoes and other insects - we used the dining area to access our laptop/iPad. There were other issues but minor in the overall picture. Unfortunately I would NOT recommend this hotel.

What an ending to an otherwise fabulous holiday in South America.. we arrived late at night to grumpy service at the desk! We had to drag our cases along a bumpy trail at 3 in the morning to our rooms located quite a distance away from the main lobby only to find that there was no lift to the first floor!! Loaded with suitcases filled with shopping this was a real interesting challenge. The room were terrible, musty and the less said about the cleanliness and linen the better! We were all bitten by bugs by the morning, but decided that the trip to the Falls would make up for the experience! Breakfast was limited and cold and there were no staff to deal with any requests. When we finally knocked and entered the kitchen area.. we were duly scolded and shooed away. An attitude that continued till we checked out.. when we were unceremoniously told to leave our rooms early, in order to accommodate the next set of guests.. seriously.. with all the choices in a tourist destination like Iguazu, and right next door to this hotel.. I am still at a loss as to why this one was chosen :(

Sol Cataratas makes a good choice for travellers who are willing to stay a bit further from the main road and get a taste of the "jungle" (selva). However, this means you don't have much of a choice when it comes to dinner - you either buy something on ypur way back, either eat what the hotel can offer. Rooms are not in the main building, but in several bungallows scattered across the premises, which in theory means to have a bit of privacy. There are plenty of trees and bushes and there was even a banana tree in front of our bungalow. Our room was spacious and clean, with a large balcony facing the selva. Upon arrival, I was thrilled we had a hammock in the balcony and imagined I would spend the evening in it, but as soon as it got dark, it was "occupied" by insects (and please forget about leaving a window open to get some fresh air in - if you ar an European not used to... large insects). Bathroom was really clean and had an amazing amount of toiletries (for a 3-star hotel). The hotel has a small outdoors swimming pool, but if you plan on using it in the evening, make sure you take the mosquito repellent with you, as they attack fiercely. Breakfast was a bit disappointing, as most items were either sweet, either sweetened. Except for the cheese and butter (which we ate with sweet bread), there isn't much to choose from - but plenty of pastry, fruit yogurt, sweet cereals. Coffee wasn't much either. The staff spoke very good English and was helpful - but keep in mind that when you inquire about transportation to either of the parks, they recommend taxis and argue against taking buses.

I agree w/Lisa S. This place is horrible at best. It was my 2nd trip to the Falls so I knew of the city center area and had expected to stay there. Unfortunately I ended up at Sol Cataratas. First it's in a "jungle" environment close to NOTHING that you could walk to. Told there was a restaurant/bar. No restaurant, except for breakfast, bar closed at 9;30pm.This Argentina, nothing closes at 9:30pm. Even the Gift shops in town stay open 'til 11:30pm. Room had a patio w/one chair but, no table. There was ONE plastic cup in the entire room. I guess that's so they could store the sink plug in it!!!! Imagine going to brush your teeth and that's what you find in the ONLY cup available! Skip this place and go to Centre Cuidad!!!
