Tantalo has all of the potential to be a fantastic hotel; unfortunately my experience of it though was a bit disappointing. First of all, the food in the restaurant is great and the rooftop bar is spectacular. In fact, it's almost too spectacular, because if you're staying on the top two floors you're likely to be kept awake by the... More

Dear EcuaMatt; Thank you very much for taking the time to comment on our property. We are working on the noisy issue. We are making adjustments to the volume levels throughout the night to try not to disturb both our guests. However we would like to add that our hotel is quieter for those staying the nights of Sunday through... More

I travel extensively for work and go to Panama 4-5 times a year. Many new hotels these days are trying to be cool but its quite inauthentic, whereas Tantalo is the real deal. the design and decor are incredibly inspired and creative and much of the art I believe was done by Panamanian street artists. The vibe is incredibly cool... More

It was my first time visiting Panama, and Tantalo was a great place to stay. The food was excellent!! I tried everything they had to offer, my favorite was their breakfast sandwich, which I ate everyday, and one day I ate two. All the staff was very accommodating, super friendly and made the stay an extremely warm welcome .I would... More

This was a great spot to party at. A nice boutique hotel with great food and an awesome rooftop bar. We have 9 guys stay there on the same floor for a bachelor party and every night the lobby and rooftop was packed. The staff was great and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. I would recommend this to anyone looking to... More

Tantalo hotel is a very stylish urban design hotel ideal for young couples looking for some fun. But I don't recommend it at all for families, because the hotel is pretty noisy at night because of the top roof bar (which has a gorgeous panoramic view of the city). The service is excellent and mostly bilingual.

From the inventive menu to the attentive staff to the panoramic roof bar to the deep house beats, they definitely poured the love into crafting this place. The beds are super comfy, rooms quiet and well air-conditioned. The well-appointed bathroom left me with that spaaaah! feeling and having unique, local art in each room only enriches the experience that much... More

Tantalo is a very interesting and creative place to stay in Casco Viejo. The experience in the restaurant and roof top bar are worth visiting. Tragically the over night experience in the hotel is frustrating at best. After nearly 24 hours without any water at all we were told there would be an adjustment in our bill.(On check out the...

As soon as I walked in to Tantalo I knew I had chosen wisely. The restaurant and bar on the first floor was buzzing with energy and music. The food there would satisfy even the most discerning appetites. In addition to the concerned and helpful staff the hotel is a work of art, literally. The living wall, hip lighting and... More
