Reviews of Riu Plaza Panama Hotel

Unbeatable access to dining, shopping, and attractions in the city
Staying here was such a treat with everything you need just a short walk away, from fantastic restaurants like Orale Tacos y Tequilas and Fandango Restaurante to unique shopping spots like Nina Concept Store, making it super easy to explore the vibrant energy of the area, plus the hotel itself featured spacious and clean rooms with a tasty breakfast buffet and friendly staff; however, the ice machine situation could be clearer for guests.

disappointing service, slippery floors
The location was great and the views from our room were nice.
Some staff were unfriendly and ignored our reports about no water in the gym. The pool deck was very slippery, and I fell hard with no signs warning about it.

During trip everything was very comfortable and we would stay here again. The breakfast was super and wonderful with multiple options and all the food was fine. This was a particularly good and perfect location right by many restaurants, the center of the business district and the taxi rank. Easily reached Simplemente Diferente, located within walking distance of the hotel, had lunch/dinner there.

I loved the trip and would come here again. Tidy, great value hotel, the location was good and absolutely perfect near to restaurant and breakfast, and Panama downtown. The rooms were comfortable modern and equipped with comfy beds, a beautiful view and bar. The breakfast was super with lots of food, including toast, cereal and eggs.

The hotel provides a comfortable modern room with a magnificent view of the bay. the super breakfast includes toast, cereals, and eggs. - the amazing location is around a 4-6 minute walk from Nacion Sushi Soho Mall.

I really enjoyed my stay in a deluxe king room that came with breakfast, I appreciated having coffee/tea making amenities and a fridge in the room.

The facilities are really nice. The breakfast buffet is outstanding. The staff is very nice. The pool is very nice. The rooms are very nice.
The room was way too cold and ended up not having a good night of sleep. We turned off the a/c, but despite this, both my daughter and I had to sleep with sweaters (I even put socks on), and had to remake the bed to double the blanket and the bedcover. The rest of the facility was very cold to us too which was really too bad because the place is so nice. Next time I would probably choose another place because of this. The computers in the business center are not protected; my e-mail was hacked which was fairly unpleasant.

Conveniently situated near the financial district center, just a quick 10-minute ride from Casco Viejo. Need a caffeine fix? Check out Petit Paris for a cozy tea or coffee spot nearby ☕.

Excellent hotel in terms of standard, rooms, breakfast and value for money
Obviously there is on some floors a problem with humidity and the climatization system, our floor was quite smelly due to that. If you stay for one night, it is not annoying, but if you stay longer it could be problematic (we stayed once on a lower floor where everthing was all right, however on 22nd it was quite bad)

Good central location. Confortable rooms.
As I would arrive before 7:00 a.m. after an overnight flight, I reserved a room for the night before to ensure a room would be available upon arrival. Even that the hotel staff confirmed they had such guaranteed reservation, they told me that they were unable to provide me with a room because the system did not allow to know if there were any free rooms. After a 20-minute wait, I did request not to be charged for the prior night if they could not provide me with a room which I already had paid for - all the sudden a room became available! This should not happen to that category of hotel. Worse of all was their attitude that they did me a favor letting me have a room which I had reserved and paid for!
