I use this hotel for all business trips to Panama City (have been there 5 times from 2003 to 2009). Upsides: excellent location (residential area, reasonably close to Casco Viejo and Av. 5 de Mayo), next to huge Multicentro Mall (across the street), spacious rooms with spectacular harbor & city views (try floor 15 and up, best room numbers end... more

I was robbed at gunpoint. The two robbers were allowed to go up the elevator to the 9th floor uncontested. They were waiting outside my door and pushed their way in and robbed me at gunpoint. The security camera clearly showed the gun in the fellows pants ,and no one in security questioned or stopped them. Poor security. Plus they... more

We went for a couple of days last decenber and it was our 3th time there. It is comfortable, clean, very well located and not expensive at all. The food is great, the view is fantastic and the mall with cinemas and casino is right across the street. The hotel area is nice and safe and is close to all... more

I stayed at Plaza Paitilla with a friend for an interrupted 2 weeks period. We used this hotel as our 'Panama city' base in between excursions in other parts of the country. Rooms are large, sunny, well maintained. Staff is friendly and they are glad to answer your concerns. It's family friendly, gay friendly. Don't hesitate to ask for a... more

Didn't like the reviews of Downtown Hotels so choose Piatilla Inn which is in a residential area of the city and within easy walking distance of a shopping mall. We liked the room which was spacious with a good view and recently had recently been renovated, had a good sized bed and a separate wash area from the bathroom. Modern... more

We had a split reservation: first for 2 nights, then later for 5 nights. My wife's parents did the same thing so in total I'm considering 4 different rooms for this review As you can see by the posted photos these rooms are nothing special- 2 beds, a desk and an armoire. Our "spectacular" views consisted of the neighboring condos... more

Nicely priced hotel in a top location, my wife is Panamanian so she managed to blag us a top room. View was amazing, stayed for a week and have no complaints. We mostly eat out when in the city but we had the occasional room service meal which was of passable quality. I will be staying here again. more

Well, the company that I work for usually books really good hotels for us, and this one was really disappointing!! Though the location is pretty good since it's close to grocery stores, malls, the bay and whatnot, and they have pretty big rooms, everything else was bad. First of all, paying 15 dollars per night for internet is ridiculous, and... more
