“Great Hotel”

Mabu Thermas And Resorts

7/7 found this review helpful

My friend and I were backpacking around south america and decided to treat ouselves to a luxurious hotel whilst we visited Iguazu Falls.

This hotel is conviently located only 5 minutes from the Argentine/Brasilian border where you can catch a taxi or a bus to the hotel.

When we arrived we were greeted by friendly staff who spoke excellent English, Spanish and obviously Portugeuse and shown to our room.

Our room was stunning, two nice big double beds, a marble bathroom with powerful shower and excellent views over the grounds. Room was fitted with all the mood cons and a well stocked Mini bar that was not too pricey considering this is a five star hotel.

Onto the food, now where do i start? I'm a vegetarian and its not the easiest at times to find adequate food, but this hotel came up trumps. It has a number of restuarants and a piano bar, but the main restaurant serves a lavish buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The maitre de, as i explianed my food problem only charged me half price - so in total it cost me and my friend just over £20.00 for two 3 course meals, 2 bottles of water and a nice bottle of Brasilian White Wine. The food is cooked by one of Brasil's top chefs and was delicious!

The hotel is situated in a vast green landscape, and has 5 pools that are filled from water from the natural spa situated under the hotel grounds - i believe this is one of a kind in Brasil? The water was around 38degrees C at all times of day and the hotel allows guests to swim whenever - its rather nice having a swim at 10:30pm! All towels are provided for pool use.

There is also a useful games room with air hockey table, pool, table tennis and video games, and they operate childrens clubs and nusery for those of you with children.

I would definately recommend staying at this hotel; the only downside is that they do not have a currency exchange facility or a cash point and you have to make your way into town (a short bus ride away)

Very good breakfast buffet included in the rate. Staff super nice and helpful. Pool was very nice and warm - enjoyed late night. swiim. IFree wifi at the lobby but worked in the room too. Rooms are average, typical hotel/motel not luxurious at all except for the robe - ended up buying for presents at US $40 each - worth it though. Overall very pleasant stay.. Out local tour guide told us this is still the best hotel in the area. Cabs/shuttles arranged thru the hotel travel agency is more expensive than if arranged by you outside.

“great pool area”

Great pool, good buffet and lovely grounds. Not a five-star by US standards (the rooms aren't luxurious enough and they claimed no king beds even though we reserved a room with one online). However, great big pool with plenty of lounges, poolside bar and grill and nice grounds to walk around. Lots of friendly, attentive staff, most spoke English. The travel agency in the lobby can take care of all excursions and ride to the airport if you so chose. It is a bit overpriced but admittedly convenient to hire a driver. Otherwise taxis are lined up just outside their gate.

We paid 130US for the room and that seemed like a good deal. I would pay up to 175US for this place for a standard room but that would be it.

4/4 found this review helpful

Stayed at the Mabu for 3 nights recently and we loved this place.
Got a good deal via the web and the restraunts and bar's at the hotel are fairly cheap by British standards, food was good ,room was nice also. The pools are brilliant the water is very clean and is always the perfect temperature! The spa centre I am told by my wife is the BEST you get four treatments for about seventy pounds this includes massage, hot stones etc, great value.
Go to the Mabu you will love it , relax but don't take the entertainment to seriously it's pretty low key but the perfect chill after Rio!

Minimum 5 star.
This hotel is beautiful. I have nothing bad to say about this hotel, our whole experience from the bell boy picking up our suitacases to checking out was seemless. We enjoyed our whole stay and would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area.
Outdoor swimming area is better then the pictures, the rooms are good size.
The entertainment at the hotel is great, a piano bar and games room.
