Location
Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is located in Casco, the old part of the city, offering a prime spot for exploring. The rooms were somewhat clean but had an open bathroom layout that may not suit everyone. The service from the front desk to the restaurant staff was fantastic, with everyone being kind and helpful.
The hotel had really quiet rooms for a good night's sleep, but they definitely need upkeep and updating. The open bathroom layout with the visible shower and toilet didn't suit my two friends. However, I found The Global Hotel Panama to be much better and my preferred choice in Panama City.
My stay at the hotel was truly enjoyable. The rooms were beautiful and large, offering a great view overlooking the pool area, making it very comfortable. The staff was friendly and always tried to help, especially during challenging situations. The location was fantastic, close to everything, but dining options at the hotel were a bit overpriced. Overall, a great choice!
The hotel offers huge rooms overlooking the pool at a reasonable price, though they could be better soundproofed. The outstanding service and convenient central location make up for any minor shortcomings.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were more than adequate, equipped with a refrigerator and safe. I enjoyed waking up to a lovely cup of coffee every morning thanks to the coffee maker in the room. The bathroom was huge, but I must admit the open bathroom layout with the shower and toilet visible may not suit everyone, especially for friends traveling together. Despite this, I will definitely be returning to this charming hotel.
I found the hotel to be in a great central location, with spacious rooms and friendly service. However, the dining options were a bit basic, and the hotel had some minor maintenance issues. Overall, a good value for money stay.
The hotel's rooms were not very well cleaned and did not include water bottles, being extremely dirty and overpriced for the quality. However, the service was very helpful with information, even in handling difficult situations. The location was crucial for easy access and had a great outdoor restaurant, despite occasional loud music. The dining experience was okay but not impressive, offering lots of options. Unfortunately, the prices did not align with the quality provided.
