I love this hotel. Staff at reception and at the front door were really helpful and efficient. The room was very comfortable and at a high standard of cleanliness. Quite close to some decent restaurants and near a metro station if needed. I will definitely be back next time I visit Panama.

Really enjoyed my stay during New Year's at this location. The staff are very friendly and welcoming, I enjoyed the breakfast options available and room service. Absolutely loved the tub and being able to relax. Also, the spa service was great! One of the best massages I ever had. Only suggestion would be updating the pool area and maybe cleaning it more frequently. Otherwise, I enjoyed my stay.

I loved everything about the place, the only thing was the way some staff treated us since me and my wife don’t look like the kind of people who the usually serve and we honestly don’t blame them. It is an experience we have had several times before but it doesn’t affect our experience at the place. Will definitely come back.

The property was nice and staff was good. I really wish they made more effort to provide vegan protein at breakfast. We stayed 3 days and the only options were bread and fruit for vegans. They could simply add tofu to the buffet. I requested avocados which they had 2 of the days.

Beautiful Bristol

The Bristol Hotel is an excellent space to retreat while in Panama City, Panama. The staff is kind, efficient, and attentive to the needs of their guests. I had an executive room in the Tower section of the Bristol. The staff, workout space, room service, and location make the Bristol Hotel an excellent choice from which to navigate Panama Ciry, Panama. Well done Bristol Hotel. Thank you.

The property is great as we had no problems. For me I like being able to have a balcony with lots of sunlight. The building has no balconies and with the nearby towering buildings it can be difficult. I do plan to stay there again as the friendly staff and amenities make up for the balcony issue.
