Boutique Hotel de la Fonte

Top choice in Puerto Iguazú


The mark of a good hotel is constant improvement, and this place adds great features so fast we can barely keep up. It's a secluded, enchanting spot, featuring characterful, individually decorated rooms and suites around a tree-filled courtyard garden that is romantically lit at night. One of the welcoming owners is an architect, and it shows in the numerous small decorative touches and artistic design.

Outdoor hot tubs, a saltwater pool and all-over style and elegance are other attractive features. The other owner is a chef who runs the town's best restaurant on-site, so you're in luck there too. A standout.
