Best Spa and Wellness Stays in Maringá

I recommend Hotel Deville Prime Maringá to families who want a polished downtown base with a pool. Children can swim while parents use the 24-hour gym or the spa and wellness area, and the à la carte restaurant and lobby bar make dinner easy without going out. The whole hotel is non-smoking, WiFi is free and unlimited, and pets are accepted, a help for families travelling with one. Guests rate it 9.3 from nearly 1,200 reviews, an excellent score.

I recommend Hotel Metrópole Maringá to families who want leisure facilities in the centre, five minutes on foot from Maringá Cathedral. Children have a swimming pool, while parents can use the sauna, the gym and a spa with a hot tub. Rooms are spacious and air-conditioned, with cable TV, a minibar and free WiFi, so a family has room to settle in. Guests rate it 9.3 from nearly 1,000 reviews, an excellent score.

I recommend Hotel Caiuá Express to families who want a modern, well-rated base close to shops: Shopping Cidade Maringá is just 70 metres away, handy for meals and a rainy afternoon. Rooms are air-conditioned with LCD TVs, private bathrooms and free WiFi, a buffet breakfast starts the day, and the reception is open around the clock. Parents have a gym and a bar, and parking is available. Guests rate it 9.1 from nearly 1,400 reviews, an excellent score.

I recommend Rio Hotel by Bourbon Maringá to families who want a pool whatever the weather. There is a rooftop swimming pool for sunny days and an indoor pool for the rest, a rare pairing in a city hotel. Rooms are air-conditioned with minibars and free WiFi, the restaurant is set up for families, and parents have a fitness centre. Pets are accepted, and an electric vehicle charging station helps on a road trip. Guests rate it 9.0 from more than 1,500 reviews.

Maringá Airport Hotel makes most sense for families flying in or out of Maringá Regional Airport, which is less than 200 metres away. Apartment-style rooms give a little more room to spread out than a standard hotel room, and air conditioning and free Wi-Fi are included. The spa and wellness area and the modern gym give parents something to use after a flight, and the reception is open 24 hours for late landings. A 9.0 score from 1,318 reviews is excellent.

Flat Luxo Golden Ingá gives a family a full apartment in Maringá: each one-bedroom unit has air conditioning, a living room and a fully equipped kitchen. I like that the building adds a pool with a view, a sun terrace and a garden for the children, plus a fitness room. The family-friendly restaurant serves Brazilian cuisine on the evenings you do not want to cook, and pets are accepted. Guests rate it 8.9 from 19 reviews.

I recommend Golden Ingá Hotel to families who want a centrally placed hotel in Maringá with something special on the roof: a pool and restaurant with panoramic views over the city. Children can also use the game room with its pool table, parents have a gym, and the apartment-style rooms give everyone a little more space. Pets are accepted, a help for families travelling with one. Guests rate it 8.8 from more than 2,100 reviews.

I recommend Transamerica Executive Maringá to families who want space and a pool. The rooms are apartment-style and air-conditioned, with free WiFi, so a longer stay stays comfortable. The infinity pool and the garden are the draw on a warm afternoon, and the family-friendly restaurant serves Brazilian cooking, a simple way to eat together without going out. Pets are accepted, and parents have a fitness centre. Guests rate it 8.7 from nearly 1,900 reviews.

I recommend Hotel Thomasi Express to families who want a central, practical stay on Avenida Colombo, one of Maringá's main streets. Rooms are air-conditioned with soundproofed windows, which matters on a busy avenue when children need to sleep, plus cable TV and free WiFi. A games room keeps children busy, parents have a fitness centre and a business centre, and pets are accepted. Guests rate it 8.6 from more than 1,800 reviews.

I recommend Hotel GAPH Maringa to families who want resort facilities inside the city. There are heated pools for both adults and children, a mini soccer field and a games room, so children have plenty to do between outings, and a spa and wellness area gives parents a break. Megastore Havan and a food square are only 100 metres away, handy for an easy dinner. Guests rate it 8.5 from more than 3,200 reviews, a strong score for its size.

King Konfort Hotel works well for a family that wants space in Maringá, with apartment-style accommodation in the commercial centre. Rooms are air-conditioned, with an LCD cable TV, and a buffet breakfast is served every day. Private parking makes arriving by car easy, and pets are welcome. Parents can use the gym and the spa and wellness area. I would choose it for a stay of several days, when the extra room and the central location make the biggest difference.
