Good location right by the river.
Clean , comfortable rooms accessed by lift. The Restaurant/ bar is at the top & you need to climb 2 short flights of steps to reach it.
There are 2 reception areas , one on the edge of a small plaza which is across the road running parallel to the Amazon river ; another is higher up & level with the Restaurant.
There is also a plaza here with views out over the Amazon & a few old cannons.
Hence the name " Fortaleza "
There is also a wooden tower & some truly revolting public toilets which , fortunately , you will not need to use.
The hotel has a large , flat roof , paved & with a couple of tables & chairs which may or may not appear. Good views from here.
Opposite the hotel is a pier supporting a large restaurant , gift emporium & here you can also arrange a boat trip up the Amazon & also get to see some varied birdlife & animals such as sloths & monkeys.
The boatmen we used were friendly , helpful & knowledgeable.
Food in the restaurant is good value & the buffet breakfast excellent & comprehensive.
Staff were friendly & helpful.
Nice ice cream parlour next door - you can actually get a couple of vegan options!
