    Good stay, solid chain hotel

    I stayed here 4 days on vacation while visiting the city. Location: great, near a walkable area with a few restaurants. Room: really good, as expected. Clean and well furnished. Breakfast: buffet breakfast is pretty solid, with a chef that prepares eggs however you want them on the spot. Lots of fruits and fruit juices to choose from. Being a bit nit-picky but unfortunately the "pastry/sweeets" side of the buffet is not as diverse as the salty/protein one. Still, very good. Staff: staff was great, ready to help but not overbearing. I used the laundry service and I received it back well cleaned (although one hour later than they said they would). They also helped arrange transportation back to the airport. The one bad note (and the only reason why this is not a 5 star review review) is the wifi. Wifi password was entered on my phone by the front desk upon check in. I was not able to find the password in my room, nor the password for what looked like an alternative "number 2" wifi. Wifi turned out to be quite unreliable, with weak signal throughout some areas (including the breakfast room and some parts of my room). One morning it was so bad that I had to turn off wifi and just use data (which is unfortunate, as while visiting a foreign country I did not have unlimited data included with my plan).

    Beautiful

    This hotel is beautiful. Friendly staff. Service on point. I got to big up Patricia and Viviana from the restaurant. The front desk staff very friendly and helpful lilia, misael, Donilda, Isabel’s excellent customer service ever. Big up the housekeepers as you go out and come in you enter in a clean and fresh room clean sheet and toiletries provided. Wi-Fi 10 out a 10. Hot water 10 out a 10. Food hmm I enjoy the hotel food than outside. I would recommend this hotel to everyone who wants to stay in Panama 10 out a 10. The only thing is missing is a pool where you can relax but it’s not a problem. There are plenty of places to go and experience. The tallest lady at the front desk big up. I remember the night I came to the hotel and my hands was full and she take my room key and companies me to my room y’all are too sweet 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲

    There are better options in town!

    Not impressed with this Novotel. Room was small, bathroom was not in good condition, you have to leave the water running for almost 10 minutes if you want some hot water. Check in also took forever. I think there are better options in town for the price range.

    Great for stopover

    We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights during our stopover flight with Copa Airlines from the United States to Colombia. We couldn't have made a better choice; the location is incredibly convenient, and the hotel's service is top-notch. I would highly recommend it for short stays.

    A GREAT HOTEL TO STAY!

    I stayed in Novotel which is an amazing hotel in Panama City, Panama. The BEST thing about this hotel is the GREAT staff who works there. They are courteous, friendly and really enjoy making guests feel welcome and well served. Worth mentioning are: Misael, Sra. Adela, Juan, Thalia, Donilda, Anabella, Romelia, Viviana, Ginibel, Leonela, Isabeli, Lidia (night shift) and last but not least all the security guards who are always looking out for me :-) The hotel is located in a great location and close to restaurants, the Metro and walking distance to one of the main roads (Via Espana). The rooms are clean and they have great food on the menu. If you really want to enjoy this beautiful country more than just the food and sightseeing, NOVOTEL is the hotel for your stay. Thanks to all the wonderful staff for making my stay more enjoyable!! Muchas gracias for su cortesia! :-)
