My girlfriend and I have spent two nights at this hostel after making a wonderful voyage by ship from Colombia (Cartagena de Indias). The hostel is acceptable, the staff is friendly and always help you if you need something, the price is cheap and meets many people from all over the world, the film is stunning, there is also space...

I have no complain about the hostel itself as it is a good (I arrived and they let me in at 2:00 even if they did not have a bed available for me, they found a solution for 10USD in a theatre room), well, my traveling pal arrived the night before and they did the same for him but he... More

PROS: great location, right at the entrance of Casco Viejo and overlooking the P.C. skyline; wonderfully atmospheric colonial mansion location; clean dorms and beds; two central bar/lounge areas that encourage guests to chat and mingle; kitchen, fridge and cheap beer; friendly, helpful staff offering a wide array of services (lodging, laundry, tours, transportation booking). CONS: I can only think of... More

I stayed a couple of days at lunas castle.

My fiance and I were looking for a fun place to stay for our first night in Panama, and we definitely found it - Luna's was so much fun.

I recently had a seriously awesome time at Luna's Castle in the Casco Viejo district of Panama City. Luna's is also a seriously social place, I was actually traveling alone but I made friends from France, Uruguy, Colunbia, Italy, Germany, Israel, & Canada during my stay. Opportunities for adventure & partying abound. Luna's has an open air courtyard bar(with 50... More

a great place to stay. i had my credit cards and cash stolen just before i got there and they let me use their phone for an hour sorting out my stuff, and pay when i had gotten my money! ok breakfast, fun bar, and even a good [quality controlled] book exchange!

This is definitely a party hostel and would be a great place to stay with a group of friends. But if you're looking for a quiet, comfortable hostel this is not the one. Panama City is very hot and humid and it's worth the extra couple bucks to splurge for the A/C dormitory. It's very tough to get in touch... More
