Iguassu Falls Hotels

Budget or luxury hotels near Iguassu Falls, or Iguazu Falls, are convenient for these amazing waterfalls, whose name translates as 'big water'. This is a huge network of 275 waterfalls across an area that's two miles wide. The Iguassu Falls are on the Iguazu River, which separates Argentina and Brazil. You can get closer to the falls on wooden catwalks – but don't expect to stay dry under the thunderous water. The Iguassu Falls have an amazing flow of about one thousand cubic meters every second. No wonder UNESCO decided to make the falls a World Heritage Area. You can leave your family hotel and see the Iguassu Falls by moonlight or you can even take an amazing boat ride to get closer to the water.
