We recently booked this hotel over the phone. I gave my credit card information. On arrival I gave them my credit card which they ran though as usual. We had to walk up two flights of stairs as the elevator wan't working (with no help from the guy who was supposed to be showing us to our room (he took... More

This hotel is a little out dated as other reviews have said, but is very clean and comfortable. The hotel is a short walk from the main part of town. There is a restaurant in the hotel, we only ate lunch once in it, but it was good. The front desk staff spoke good english and were very helpful. The... More

Excellent value--very affordable price for excellent service, great beds, great location. Located just before the entrance to Valle Escondido, you can easily walk just several blocks back into Bajo Boquete town. I even took a walk at night under the moon and stars and it was lovely, safe, back off the main roads. Rooms are good size with refrigerator, great... More

Very helpful and very friendly staff in wonderfully decorated hotel in a beautiful location. This is one of the best hotels in Panama. Everything is clean and beautifully designed, with a great view from most of the rooms. The best thing here is the service. The receptionists here were very helpful in finding and booking activities in Boquete. They let... More

The location of Valle del Rio is perfect: a short hike from the bustle of the town's main drag, nestled next to a narrow river/creek. Their sign comes up pretty fast after you round the bend (watch for the casino dice). There's a steep driveway (which tested our tiny rental car) & ample parking. The lobby is warm and welcoming,...

The hotel is relatively new, but its maintenance program seems not to exist. There are leaks from bathroom to the wall facing the room, problems with cable TV connection, no Wi Fi in room, only in the public areas, which is not understood. The food is terrible, both the breakfast that is very very poor, as in the food for... More

We stayed at this hotel December 17th-19th and the location was stunning, with wonderful balconies off the rooms and just a short drive to town. The down side was the service at the front desk and the onsite restaurant. We found on all but one occasion the front desk staff could not have cared less. The worst case was when... More

We decided to go to Panama just a few weeks before Christmas so there weren't many hotels still available to choose from. After reading the various reviews, we decided to stay at the Hotel Valle Del Rio for the two nights that we were in Boquete. First, let me start with the pros. It's a 5 minute walk from the... More

My husband and I stayed for only several days during our 2 week stay in Boquete. We were the only ones there. The service was non existent. The food was inedible, the "gym" was a "closet with a couple of machines, the "casino" was the same. WiFi did not work. The staff was only interested in our passport and credit... More
