Las Orquideas Parque Hotel

Beautiful spacious garden and green lawn. The green lawn is clean and well-trimmed that I can do exercise on it. Wonderful and luxurious breakfast buffet.

Far from city center and attractions, no local bus to get around.

Magnificently interesting interior, I enjoyed looking at the objects and pictures/paintings carefully placed along the corridor to the rooms and downstairs in the lounge area leading onto the patio. Checking-in was pleasant and warmly welcomed by the beautiful senora and senoritas ~ the hospitality was personable, nothing was too much to ask. The hotel’s own artisanal cerveza made with guava hops is a must try! So nicely chilled and served in an ice bucket ~ sitting down in the garden, listening to the birds while chilling was heavenly ~ a tranquil environment.

Breakfast had everything I needed to start my day, although the scrambled eggs was a little dry and hard, I lived! (and forgive).

I thought I'd made the wrong decision basing myself in Paraguay, knowing I still had some sights to see in Foz. However I am a plant lover and the gardens here are fantastic, so many beautiful, colourful and mature specimens. Great to have a relaxing few days amongst the lushness. The staff are equally lovely and were patient with my lack of spanish. Nice room and bathroom: loved the sunshine coming in first thing in the morning. Set in a plush neighbourhood with the Polka restaurant round the corner which I recommend for lunch and dinner; great food, great service.

Back and forth crossing the border into Brazil was a bit time consuming and a headache.
