Top 10 Karadeniz Hotels

Our experience at the Belmond can only be described as magical. The hotel itself is beautiful, every member of staff were lovely, the cocktails at Bar Tarobá were incredible, and the pool was great - our whole stay could not have gone smoother. But, what makes this hotel so special is the access to the falls. Being inside the national park before and after it is open to the public is an unmissable experience - you only have to step foot outside of the lobby to be greeted with a beautiful view. We decided to walk the trail at sunset after it had closed to the public, and we were the only people there. During the day, as you can imagine, it can be packed, so being able to experience it privately was so unique - plus, it gave us the most amazing photo opportunities! As we were walking the trail we thought to ourselves ‘this in itself is an experience we’re sure some people would pay more than the price of the hotel for!’. It was an unforgettable evening to cherish forever. The hotel concierge was excellent, arranging wonderful experiences for us - including a boat trip (which they supply towels and ponchos for). After staying here on the Brazilian side, we stayed on the Argentinian side for two nights, but, if I were to go back and repeat this trip, I would definitely only stay at the Belmond and just do a day trip to the Argentinian side with the help of the concierge. The breakfast and lunch buffets at Ipê Restaurant were delicious, but our meal at Itaipu was stand out - by far the best meal we had in Brazil. Being so full after starter and main course but could not resist a dessert - you have to have dinner here! Having visited a number of other wonderful Belmond properties, it is without a doubt that this one is a favourite and would absolutely love to return. There is no question about it, you simply must stay here when visiting the falls - you will regret it if you don’t! And finally, this Belmond is absolutely incredible. Five stars is simply not enough. It is a seven star hotel.

I'm a doctor and spent a weekend at the Resort with my family. During usual times, my evaluation would be excellent, however I was strongly disappointed and would not recommend this resort as good for minimum Covid-19 precautions, during breakfast (when people are more vulnerable, as they need to remove their masks). I would like to make it very clear that the employees were doing the best job possible and acting as directed, but I noticed an obvious lack of a management plan for meal time, training for employees and instructions for the guests. Breakfast took place in only one of the two restaurants available, the tables were not spaced properly (or at least not obviously signposted for guests), people sat less than 1m apart (as in a normal period), it would be a pleasant mess, if was pre-Covid era. I would expect international standards, with respect to WHO rules, but I found quality inferior to that of local contingency plan. I have no doubt that the hotel has trained staff to draw up a good plan and honestly I hope that profit does not prevail over people's health and care, specially at this challenging times.

Hotel apenas razoável, estrutura já antiga, deteriorada pelo tempo.. não é possível considerar como 5 estrelas conforme anunciado. O destaque positivo fica para o parque aquático Blue Park que é ótimo. O destaque negativo vai para o trip.com que anunciou como se o ingresso ao parque aquático estivesse incluso e não estava.. causando grande constrangimento no check-in.

Simply amazing hotel. All renovated. Impeccable facilities. Restaurants. Piano bar. Everything perfect. Tranquility and quality at the maximum limit. Highly specialized and attentive employees who make the difference. We go to Foz a lot and, for sure, we will return to Sanma. Congratulations to everyone at the hotel.

We love this resort. Sadly, we only stayed two nights, and I feel like we should have stayed at least three days. One problem I had is that I requested a room with a king or queen bed size, and they ended up giving me a room with two beds. Overall, the place is awesome, the drinks are perfect and we're excited to see the expansion of this place.

My one-night stay was marred by the worst sound proofing I’ve ever encountered in a hotel. We were in a connecting room, and could hear every noise from next door as if it was in our room. Noise from the corridor was also bad. For what seems to be a new build hotel there were quite a few defects: the sound proofing, the bathroom door wouldn’t close properly, there were gaps in the main and connecting door frames letting light in. It’s clearly not the fault of the staff or management but it smacked of poor quality build (as did other signs of damage to the fabric of the building such as cracks in the exterior wall) and did impact our stay. That said, it’s a really nice hotel in many ways. There were so many positives about my stay: great service from staff, really good breakfast, excellent outdoor swimming pools. If it wasn’t for the noise and light issues I’d have given it five stars.

The hotel is very comfortable and clean and the staff is friendly and serviceable. The hotel's restaurant offers free buffet breakfast and a menu at the letter for lunch and dinner.
