FAQ & Những mẹo ẩn
Mọi thứ bạn thực sự muốn biết trước khi đặt phòng.
Can I see the falls from my room?
Likely not. Only about 14 rooms (mostly suites) have a direct view. Most face the lush gardens or jungle.
How do I get to the hotel?
You must take a taxi to the park gate and then the free hotel shuttle, OR book the hotel's private transfer (~$70 USD) to drive directly to the door.
Is the pool heated?
Yes, the main pool is heated year-round, which is great for cooler winter evenings.
Are there mosquitoes?
Yes, you are in a subtropical rainforest. The hotel fogs the grounds, but bring repellent for the trails.
Is breakfast included?
Yes, a lavish buffet breakfast is included for all guests, featuring free-flowing sparkling wine.
Can I walk to the Argentine side?
No, you need to take a taxi or tour across the border. It's a day trip, not a walk.
