When the Spanish came to Peru, they expected to find the lost City of Gold in the middle of the jungle, El Dorado. The El Dorado Hotel is located in the city center, 5 kilometers from the airport. It is the first and the only five-star hotel in the enigmatic Amazon Jungle. Rooms for disabled guests are available.

In 1837, a German known by the name of Schoburgk wrote in his personal diary that he had discovered an astonishing Flower in the Amazon Jungle. Its amazing beauty captivated him, and he named it the "Victoria Regia," in honor of Queen Victoria from England. The Victoria Regia Hotel is a modern hotel on a busy residential street about 10 minutes from the main square, and just two minutes from the Amazon River. The rooms surround an attractive indoor pool.

The Muyuna Amazon Lodge is located on the Yanayacu River bank, 135 km. / 83 mi. southeast and three hours by speedboat from Iquitos. Since it is so far from civilization, the opportunities to observe nature are much greater here than in places closer to the city. The lodge was designed and constructed by workers from the local village and is built in the traditional design of the area. Each bungalow is protected by a mosquito net and has a terrace with its own hammock facing the river, where dolphins as well as fish can be seen during the river's flood times.
San Juan de Yanayacu is a small village close to the lodge that one can visit and experience cultural interchanges with the residents. There is no electricity in the lodge; the oil lamps give the place a magical feel at night. All walkways are well lit.
