4-Star Hotels in Misiones, Argentina

If you are planning to stay at Mercure Iguazu Hotel Iru, do yourself a favor: read their pre-arrival emails for the entertainment value, but never actually book their ”exclusive” private car service. Unless, of course, you’ve had a few too many glasses of Malbec and feel like donating your money to a creative writing project. Here’s why the hotel’s transport service is a ”must-avoid”: The front desk will happily quote you a price that is roughly 130% of the market rate (think 60,000 Pesos when the standard round-trip to the National Park is 40,000). They’ll justify this with flowery language about it being a ”private service” and the costs of ”empty legs.” That ”luxury” private car? It’s just a slightly cleaner-than-average van or a 7-seater SUV. If that’s worth a 50% markup to you, you’ll love it  I arranged a pickup for 2:00 PM. I even messaged the driver at 1:50 PM to confirm I’d be ready by 2:10 PM. In a stunning display of ”Mercure time,” the driver finally graced me with his presence at 2:45 PM. I suppose I should thank God he wasn't over an hour late, but sitting at the park entrance for 35 minutes while paying ”premium” rates really added that extra sparkle to my trip. The hotel is fine, but their transport service is a blatant scam wrapped in a ”private car” label. Save your money, call a local taxi or use a ride-hailing app, and spend that 20,000 Peso difference on literally anything else. You’ll get to the park faster and with much less resentment.

This is a very cost-effective hotel. Iguazu is a very small town, so don't expect too much from the hotel, but it is definitely worth the price. Local transportation relies on taxis and buses, and there is a taxi point at the door of the hotel, which is convenient.

It's good that it's right next to the bus stop. The breakfast was pretty good. The rooms were clean and nice. There is also a terrace.

We arrived before 9am and could check into our room straightaway. Very grateful to be able to do so and focus on getting to Iguazu Falls. We had no idea how to get there and the receptionist swiftly settled for us by helping us book return transport. The room was spacious and had good views. Nothing luxurious but serves it's purpose well. See pic. The breakfast was nothing fancy but decent. There are 2 swimming pools. One at ground level, one at 9th floor. You can fill up your bottles at the gym, basically all I needed.

Maybe it's just a coincidence, but time and again, the international hotels we book on Trip.com put us in corner rooms! The view outside Room 264, which was a replacement room, is shown in picture 1. The original room, 268, was even more tucked into a corner, and there were people doing maintenance in the hallway right outside the door (I sent pictures to Trip.com customer service). The reason we switched rooms wasn't even because the window was obstructed, but because there was no internet. On our two-month self-guided tour of South America, no internet means we can't plan our subsequent itinerary. Throughout this process, Trip.com's customer service staff stayed in touch and were faultless. However, the hotel should really reflect on why they consistently give us bad rooms. This is a large hotel with many rooms, so the front desk surely knows which rooms have poor Wi-Fi.

The mosquito control in the room is very good, there is a special fragrance and anti-mosquito lotion for the guests to use The restaurant in the hotel tastes pleasantly surprised, I recommend everyone to try it.

A beautiful hotel, close to nature. Welcome staff. There are 2 pools and a nice restaurant. Photos of a delicious dinner.)) It's all done in one style, beautiful houses, even the recipient is beautifully suited to the general view. On the second floor of the recipient is a lounge area where you can comfortably wait for your settlement and play desktop games. Or read the book. There is everything you need in the room: from various cups to mixers, there are mosquito repellents that help you a lot. Mate, nuts and chocolate candy as a compliment to the plant were a nice bonus. A very cool mangal terrace, you can have dinner in nature. And I want to pay attention to the details: a note with the guest name and a greeting - it looked very nice 🥰 ❤️ This is one of the best hotels you want to recommend. 10 out of 10.

The place is beautiful, and not in the very center, but it’s a nice 20-minute walk to get there. There’s a transport stop nearby if you don’t want to walk. A bus leaves for the waterfalls almost right outside the hotel. The room is spacious, but the equipment is a bit old. There are not enough chairs on the balcony. In such a wonderful space, I would like more attentive staff and customer focus. They take a very long time to check in, although the rooms are ready. Breakfast does not reach 4 stars, a lot of spoiled fruit, no vegetables. And the omelette is not always ready, the expectation is that it will be prepared on the spot, but this does not work. But the hotel area is very beautiful and green!

It's a bit far from the city center, but if you take a taxi it's not a problem to get there. There were a lot of comments about the humidity being a problem, but the weather was nice when we stayed so it wasn't a problem at all. There was a large bathtub, a spacious shower room, a comfortable bed and good amenities. I'm very satisfied.
