A Complete Guide to Visiting Iguazu Falls

where To Stay in puerto iguazu

Aside from visiting the Falls over the course of one or two days, there really isn’t too much else to do in Puerto Iguazu. That’s not to say the town is unpleasant (although it’s nothing to write home about), but just that most travellers – long and short term – won’t be stopping over for much time.

Hostels

Before diving into our hotel recommendations, we just wanted to mention that if basing selections purely on reviews of recent guests, the ‘good’ hostel options in Puerto Iguazu are somewhat limited. Please do bear this in mind when selecting your bed for the night – it may be literally that rather than a fantastic experience.

The Host Bed & Meeting | One of the few hostels with an excellent review in 2021! This hostel has an eco / sustainable focus, is full of art, and has won couple of awards. Offers dorms (with curtains) as well as privates, has a free breakfast, self-catering facilities, and a garden. Find out more here.

Poramba Hostel | This is the friendly little hostel that we stayed at, located just a few minutes walk from the bus station. The staff were very helpful during our stay, providing information about where to eat and information on visiting the Falls. When we stayed they offered good, spacious dorms and a few private rooms which, although lacking a little in natural light, are more than adequate for a night or two. The best part is the small pool whilst they have also a well-equipped kitchen. We do wish to note that this quality is perhaps a tad lacking nowadays (as noted by recent reviews) – we hope that it improves in the coming months/years, but we’d recommend taking a look at recent guest’s feedback before booking. Check out their rates and book a room here. 

Beer Hotel Iguazu | No, you haven’t read that wrong – this is indeed a hostel with an on-site brewery, as well as all manner of beer-related activities. Also has spa, large pool, good-sized and well-furnished dorms and private rooms and self-catering facilities. Find out more here.
