I loved this place. Not sure how I would feel if I were spending the days here but this met the need of a good hotel for the trips to the falls. It feels VERY retro but is in good nick and the service is attentive. Food was good and the room comfortable and well equipped.

We stayed here for 2 nights while visiting the falls... the staff was lovely. The hotel is exceptionally clean and well maintained. We loved the pool and indoor jacuzzi as well.
There aren't a whole lot of choices for food but the breakfast buffet was great.

There is not much going on in this town - so we had no choice. When visiting the falls - DO STAY in this hotel!

Umm, 1980 called and they want their hotel back. My mom and I stayed here for two nights and could not stop laughing about the decor. While the hotel is perfectly clean, it has not been updated in ages - I felt like I was in a time warp! But, the staff was very helpful, the garden was lovely, the breakfast buffet was great and the price was right. The hotel really does have a lot to offer, just in an old-school style! Sure, the music at the pool can get a little annoying and the Italian restaurant is so-so. But, there is literally NOTHING else to do out by the falls so this place is just fine. Eat at one of the restaurants, have drinks in the lounge, avoid falling into the sunken seating area in the lobby and return to your room to read on the balcony, crack a beer from the minibar and watch some Portugese or English language tv! The hotel is not near the falls but if you've got a tour, taxi, or private guide it's just fine since you're probably spending most of your time at the falls, not at the hotel. The Bourbon won't rock your world but we certainly were safe, happy and well fed while there.

A truly awful experience! We stayed for 3 nights over New Year & endured a hotel that was run like a holiday camp. The cheesy euro-pop styled music at the pool commenced early in the morning & did not stop till after sunset! During the day we were subjected to aqua-aerobics & various other pool based activities during which the PA system was deafening (even in the hotel rooms). If you want any peace & tranquility this hotel should be avoided at all costs.

My wife & I had to wait almost an hour for a meal & when the food arrived it wasn't even what either of us ordered.

The hotel has lots of potential as it has excellent sports facilities & beautiful gardens but at the moment it is run like a chimps tea party!
