    Really nice hotel!

    we enjoyed our stay. Everything was great from check in to room cleaning to breakfast. We didn't experience any issues at all. Breakfast was a great value but my recommendation would be to go there earlier as it gets quite busy with lines closer to 9-10 am and you may not even get a coffee service.

    RIU EXPERIENCE - PANAMA

    Viewing the hotel online and being there myself was a pleasant surprise. The hotel always has a fresh scent, it's clean and well kept. The rooms are attended to daily and pleasant to the eye. The air-conditioning system is great. The only thing we had hoped for, was that we had a few juices in the mini refrigerator. However, that did not take away from our trip. We were very satisfied.

    My true , honest review from a solo female traveler in Panama City

    I’m going to give this hotel 5 stars ⭐️ for many reasons As a solo female traveler this hotel was my safe haven . I felt safe in this area My room was comfortable with a floor to ceiling window. Black out curtains for good sleep , air conditioning ( had to ask for a blanket) a free use of safe , coffee machine and a fridge. The tv had a few channels in English. The bathroom was clean and had a great shower providing shower gel and conditioner. If I had to give a star rating for staff , it would unfortunately give only 2 stars ⭐️ and that was down to friendly receptionists and Ronaldo the very helpful and caring bellboy. I found the staff in restaurant and pool bar to be a little unfriendly which made me feel unvalued. If there was more smiles then I would have given more stars The pool area was very clean and inviting. Towels can be found with a man at side of the bar Please be mindful of the prices of beverages at the pool bar was I was charged more that the price list that advertised the product. The hotel has a trips and tours desk outside foyer. I went on the Canal tour which was very good . The only place to smoke is outside of reception. Breakfast is plentiful. As a vegetarian, I did ok with the fresh fruit and eggs . However one morning there was a sign for a sweet potato dish but it was in fact some sort of pork . This is a mistake that I would not expect from a Riu hotel chain . The hotel is situated in between a KFC and a Macdonalds . 12 mins walk to a Rey supermarket and 12 min walk to Cinta Costera . I used Uber to get from airport and the get to the causeway ( $4) airport was about $20 and was excellent. I bought a SIM card from the airport for $30 and the lady set it all up for me. A big thank you again to Mr Rolando in the lobby . Uber is a very good was to travel around Panamá city
