Although the sign outside suggests it is 4-star hotel, it is more a 3-star. Small room but clean. The safe was not working and the TV had no channels unless you have Netflix/Amazon/Apple TV.
Oddly, their restaurant/cantina is closed on Sundays so we could not get anything to eat! Luckily the receptionist called a local pizzeria that delivered.
Made to look Italian with lots of photos/paintings everywhere. Breakfast was pretty good but no tea available!!

Amazing gem during your visit to the falls

Amazing gem wow! I didn't have any expectations for this hotel as I just needed a 1 night stay to visit the falls but it impressed me so much! Really liked the lobby area and whole cosiness of the hotel. Amazing female receptionist working on 1 Apr morning (I didn't get her name) but she spoke english and had great service. The room is very clean and had a great bathroom with good water pressure, toilet paper was by sheets instead of a roll and there's a Bidet gun. There is also a safe and fridge. The surrounding is nothing much except for the mall. Also, the breakfast had an amazing large spread with lots of food varieties. The whole decor of the hotel seems to be Italian theme, hence the hotel name. Highly recommended!

Rooms on the back (main building above reception and the breakfast area ) are very noise.
If you are placed in a room facing the pool, the air conditioners and the pool filtering system will make your night sleep impossible. It's not only the noise from the air conditioner, it's the vibrations that are bad.
These rooms should be tested for acceptable noise levels by the health authorities.

Rooms on front , you will hear all the street noise and traffic.

There is no central air conditioning so ea h room has its own air-conditioned placed outside and if you turn off yours, you can hear the noise from the other room air conditioner and because these units are very old, they are super noise as well.

Rooms are very basic but OK for
a short stay.

They do not offer filtered water so you can refill your water bottles.

I loved in the hotel everything was about Italy, decorations, even the music and food options during breakfast. Room was confortable with everything you need.
As Iguazu weather was nice, we did not need to use the air conditioner. I will recommend them to add a mesh window. This may save energy and customers may feel more comfortable.
Deep washing in some bedding items will add better confort and cleanliness feeling to customers.

Convenient to downtown, next door to the mall, taxi stand, and tour agency. Staff were very helpful, and most spoke some English. Breakfast buffet was huge, a little of everything, free, and reasonably good. The room was a little small, but the balcony and VERY comfortable bed made up for it. Free WiFi was a bit slow and not great signal, but that may have been because I was on the far corner of the building. All in all, I would highly recommend this place.

We had flown from Buenos Aires to Iguazu airport / Argentina side. We booked a Remise car to bring us straight across the border to check in to Hotel Bella.
We then went to Iguazu Falls / Brazil side and we stayed one night at the hotel. Hotel was close to the Falls. We paid the Taxi from the Falls back to the hotel in US$13 as we didn't change any Brazilian currency.
We had a nice dinner in the hotel. The breakfast spread was excellent. Such a wide choice !

This hotel is in serious need of updating - that being said, for the price, it was clean and I felt completely safe there. I was disappointed in the location -- the only place you can really walk to for dinner is the Mall and the staff not very helpful in providing alternatives for dining, other than their own on site restaurant which we found to be very disappointing.

Good Option with a Great Breakfast

My husband, my sister and I stayed at Bella Italia in January, 2015 and found the hotel quite adequate. The room was comfortable if rather basic, one of the front desk staff was very helpful and was able to converse very well in English with us (unfortunately for us, the majority of the staff didn't speak English and we didn't have much grasp of Portuguese), and the breakfast buffet was one of the best we had during our time in Brazil. The complimentary airport pick-up was also nice. The location of the hotel worked well for us, too - the proximity to a large local mall was useful for snacks and a quick meal, and we could easily walk the approximately ten minute walk to the local bus station to catch the bus to the Falls, the airport, and to the Argentine side of the Falls as well. The tour company in the lobby provided day excursions to the Falls but we opted to find our own way and managed quite well via the local bus system.

The hotel is neat, clean, affordable, and quiet. Staff is friendly, helpful, and very accommodating. The decor is a bit dated, worn, and dark, but you don't spend much time in your room when you are out exploring Iguacu Falls. Breakfast is bountiful and the evening meal was reasonably priced with a good choice of entrees. It is also only a 5 minute walk to the mall that has a food court and a variety of shops. I would stay there again and recommend it to my friends who are looking for a comfortable, safe hotel that is reasonably priced. Definitely a good value.

hotel was fine

After reading the reviews I knew the rooms would not be anything special. They were about what I expected and worked for what I was looking for - which was a one night stay. I could hear everything that was going on in the neighborhood (dogs/cars/etc). There were more English tv channels than I have found in other hotels in Brazil. The free airport shuttle was nice. The staff attempted to be helpful but did not seem to know much about how to get to the falls. The breakfast was ok. After reading reviews I thought that the breakfast would be the highlight of the stay - it was not. It had plenty of selections but many of the selections were bread and cereals. The hotel is close to a bus stop (across the street) and a mall (a block away). I ate at the grocery store in the mall and can not comment on the restaurant at the hotel.

nice place to stay

Not a Hilton, but a very nice, clean place to stay. Staff was plesant, food quality was excellent. Didn't care much for the Turistic options provided by an outside company located inside the hotel (basically, all they provide is an expensive form of transportation to most visited places. I found the local taxists where more affordable and more personal). Back to hotel: Roons .are clean and confortable. Ddon't expect the luxuries we usually see in American's hoteis, but for the Brazilian standards, it is very good. I do recommend. Staff are pleasant and will help you if needed. Disappointed only with fact that hotel provided transportation from airport to hotel but denied transportation back to airport; although, the requests were made upon purchase. If staying in the area, one must attend their all Italian feast on Saturdays. Lovely event and a must for the Italian food lovers. If I was to rate the hotel: 4 stars based on Brasilian standard. 3 stars based on American standards. Hope it helps :)

The bathroom counter space was small - especially for three people sharing, but the shower was great.

not quite worth it...

This hotel was a 3 star hotel or more i think when i booked it.. as an avid traveler this is not a 3 star hotel... i will give it 2. the beds are very old, think coin operated vibrating, yeah, and while the hotel is relatively clean, it is not to par. the breakfast buffet left me walking to the mall abt 2 blocks where i happily ate at the grocery store. the location is nice in that the mall is close and has a pharmacy and grocers. also the public bus station is close 1mile, which allows you access to local attractions and one block further is a public transport to argentina. my other issue is that the hotel never once recognized my multiple requests for airport service which is supposed to be free upon arrival. thus the 45 reales taxi i took added to the lackluster 3 star effort. the overal hotel staff was friendly, and knowing what i know now, if the rates were lower i would stay again. thanks

Good hotel, but not worth the price. Room are a bit old and lacking some potential comfort. For less you can stay in other hotels with better rooms.

Good Hotel for exploring Iguasu

The hotel is at the edge of town near a shopping centre. The staff are very friendly and helpful. I had booked return journey to the airport for the beginning and end of my stay - through a company brokered by Expedia. Despite agreeing 1.30pm pick up to the airport, the driver never showed up and had switched off his mobile. The hotel, realising my predicament immediately organised immediate, free transport to the airport and I caught my plane.
The breakfasts are very well done with an impressive spread to suit all tastes (although the coffee tasted of instant). The food in the restaurant, however, really is not up to much - certainly not for an chic Italian.
In the foyer they have a very organised and friendly excursions desk from which I very quickly organised my trips to both sides of the dam, the bird park, a helicopter ride and a guided tour of the dam.
The room was perfectly adequate and clean with all the ussual.

the only good thing about this hotel was breakfast; room is terrible simle( like in a 1 or 2 star motel); recommendations from a staff member about a restaurant was extremely misleading( he made the recommendation without ever being in that reastaurant). I would not recommend this hotel

Good choice for Igaussu Falls

We were on a two day visit of Igaussu Falls, so we wanted a convenient hotel with good visitor services. This hotel fit the bill perfectly. We arrived early in the morning and they had a room ready for us (with free airport pickup). Within an hour of our arrival, we had set up our two day touring schedule with the in house tour dest and were on our way on the first tour. That's efficient. We had (on purpose) not made any advance reservations and they were not needed.
This hotel has a great breakfast (included), free internet (which was quirky) and is close to a full service shopping mall (with food court). The staff was helpful and used to handling the tourist visiting the falls so could anticipate and answer question regarding the Falls with ease (do I want to visit the Argentinian side?).

Decent, safe hotel

The hotel provided a decent breakfast that was included in the bill. The beds were twin size, but were not uncomfortable. Bathroom was decent size. Indoor air-conditioner worked well. The staff could speak English and were helpful in scheduling rides to the hotel. And the hotel was nicely kept.

Bella Italia

There are other hotels closer to Iguazu, but many are not in great condition (unless you stay at the hotel IN the park) This hotel is a longer drive, but fairly nice on the inside, has good breakfast and a couple of dining options for dinner, but the surrounding neighborhood leaves much to be desired.

Excellent choice, but ask for a room that does not face the road

The place is old, but very well maintained, the rooms are so big, you could fit 2 rooms of an average hotel. The people were very helpful and the restaurant was much better than expected.

In order to get internet access free of charge, lmake sure you let them know that you booked through Expedia.

A good value and quite convenient.

The hotel is located in the city center of Foz do Iguacu (town on the Brazilian side). Foz do Iguacu is actually a big city with about 300,000 people so hardly a town. There are probably some newer, poshier resorts on the outskirts of town although those probably cost a bit more money and are probably a bit out of the way unless all you plan to do is stay at the resort. This hotel was a short walk away from a very large and modern shopping mall. It was pretty neat to see a Brazilian mall. The \"supermarket\" there was quite fascinating to walk through to see the merchandise and the prices. There was a very neat flower store right around the corner from the hotel that made for interesting browsing and had some nice gifts to purchase as well. Also, within walking distance was Avenida Brasil that had a lot of shops. The free breakfast buffet at the hotel had quite a lot of selections and was quite good. The service was very good and the front desk staff was very helpful and most spoke English. The hotel is on the older side but had its charm. I saw some larger, and they looked newer, resorts on the outskirts of town on the way to the falls that looked nicer but thinking they cost more money and there is little around them if you want to go for a walk. This hotel was very convenient. For the price I paid, it was of very excellent value.

Nothing special.

Check-in wasn't bad once I switched to a front desk person that knew a bit of english. A few people there knew a bit but many did not. One time room service worked well. Another time, no one around spoke english and I got something completely different. I don't blame them for this since this is Brazil. Just thought I'd note for other english-only speaking travelers. The room was pretty small. Beds are done in the normal European style. If you ask for a king, they put two twins together. Having a refrigerator in the room was nice but had to remove some of the minibar stock to use. Also, the inside of the fridge had a bad odor. The wooden floors were a bit dirty so I couldn't really just wear socks in the room. The breakfast buffet was a pretty nice spread. Overall, the place was not anything special. If this were a hotel in, say, the US, I would have knocked down the ratings a bit. You may want to look elsewhere if you want something more along the standards of American mid level or higher hotel standards.
