Panams is a surprisingly beautifully decorated and modern oasis in the center of Bella Vista's busy streets. Bordering the upscale financial district and on a one-way street, it's still not known by all the cab drivers; best to take a business card. Exceptional staff and full breakfast options. Beautifully done, replete with elegant bath/shower and a large, jetted spa tub... More

I don't know how to explain it except to say something just seemed a little off. We stayed for two nights in March. The room was nice and the bed was comfortable. But small details seemed askew: flimsy room doors, sliding bar lock on room door didn't match up/function, mirrors mounted too high in the bathroom, plaques with room numbers... More

We stayed for 4 nights and was very impressed by the hotel. Rooms were huge and breakfast was fantastic. It helps if you speak Spanish at breakfast as I think there are more cooked options that we could not understand. Free wine, coffee and biscuits all day and a great lobby area that most people hang out in to get... More

We stayed at the panams twice during our stay in Panama. Booked it before for the first days, and we returned for the last days of our vacation. Why? Because this is an excellent hotel, especially for the price we payed. The rooms (we had two different ones) are very big with comfortable beds, a nice sitting area, jacuzzi (that... More

My wife and I arrived here, exhausted after a long bus trip. The staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome and assisted us in transportation, finding restaurants etc. The room couldn't have been nicer. Very comfortable king bed. Well decorated and modern. The bath was all tile and glass with the largest shower head I have... More

My first trip to Panama city was perfect for a long weekend visiting friends. I was looking for an alternate to the highrises with poor service. The Panams fit the bill. Massive modern rooms could easily fit a rollaway or crib. The tub in the living area was a waste however as it took so long to fill and the... More

Booked the hotel not really knowing what to expect and I'm glad I did. The hotel has a modern design but a very cozy touch to it. Since you enter you feel welcomed and not overwhelmed by the decoration around you. We checked in at night and the night auditor was really helpful. The room was very spacious with a... More

We were pleasantly surprised by this boutique hotel. We showed up at 8 AM hoping they would hold our luggage till the afternoon for check-in. Instead, the reception checked us in immediately, and let us know that breakfast is served till 8:30! Breakfast was very good - note that you can also order from the kitchen (though, speaking spanish will... More

This is a contemporay designed and styled hotel. The rooms are large and clean. There is a somewhat slow wi-fi. Breakfast good, but not a huge selection. The staff is very helpful and able to assist with all kinds of practicalities. Nice lobby area with a small free bar. The sound barriers (doors etc) could be better, you will hear... More

Very good hotel. It is situated near the city center. It's possible to walk from the hotel to calle Uruguay or to avenida Balboa by 15 minutes. The road not very clear, but if you come once, next time it is easy. The breakfast is sufficiently good, include eggs, but the first time nobody in the restaurant didn't said us... More
