I stayed at the Mercure Hotel for 3-nights on a trip with a friend to visit IguazĂș Falls.
PROS: We booked a double room with two twin beds â the room was a good size and was really nice and clean, but the beds were small. Aside from that, I really enjoyed the shower as it was very spacious and had both a rain shower and handheld option. The staff cleaned our room everyday and left it super clean.
The hotel is in the middle of the rainforest and the grounds were well-kept. Sleeping with the window open at night (they have screens) and falling asleep to real rainforest sounds was amazing! The pool area is also super nice and has a bar thatâs open until midnight with friendly staff.
CONS: The food!!! Our first night there we were exhausted and hungry, so we decided to go to the hotelâs restaurant for dinner â big mistake. We were really disappointed not only by the food, but by the service as well. It took about an hour to get our food and it was not good at all and a bit cold.
Our reservation didnât include the hotelâs buffet breakfast so we sat in the bar area and ordered. Again, the service was very slow. The three mornings we were there it took forever to order and get our food, then when we finally got it we had to rush to eat before our tour guide arrived.
OVERALL: I would give this hotel four stars and would stay here again if visiting IguazĂș, but I would avoid the restaurant and make sure to get to breakfast super early!
