Business takes me to Panama City once a year. I've been staying at the Crowne Plaza for two weeks at a time since 2008. I very much enjoy my time at this property and would recommend it to others. Specifically... 1. Location. Nicely situated in "El Cangrejo" district; within walking distance of many fine restaurants, Ave. Balboa, Calle Uruguay, shopping... More

By far, two thumbs up. This hotel offers something that most hotels often fall short in, and that is customer service. My first thought when I arrived was, "Wow". Before I could fully step out of the taxi, Bellboy supervisor Aristoles Vallester took my bags and with a beaming smile from ear to ear, welcomed me to the Crowne Plaza... More

Nice location. But the rooms and especially the bath room is not nice. Small , worn out and dark. Also the room keeping is bad. One day newspaper next day not. Same For the Ammenities. Would not stay again. Positive was the very friendly reception at the check in and platinum recognition.

Overall, I was very pleased with this hotel in all aspects. Front desk staff were courteous and helpful. As a Platinum Priority Club member I believe my room was upgraded to a suite with small kitchen, and I also received a complementary bottle of water and small plate of fruit (see photos), which was great! The hotel is pretty centrally... More

On one side, some of the rooms are good (the suites), some of the rooms are just too lousy. The service is... barebones, except the people at the restaurant. Why did I still consider this a 3-star? Because of the location, because it is cheap and because I have a soft heart. Would I consider to return? Only if I... More
