    Pros: Superb breakfast and valet service; Cons: boxspring mattress and hazed window

    Great hotel. Breakfast was one of the best we had! We also loved the valet service for our rental. Only two cons: 1) Mattress was a boxspring so you could feel every move of your partner. Really didn't expect this kind of mattress in a 5* hotel. We've so far only had this kind of mattress in 3* hotels. 2) Our room window was very hazed, so we couldn't fully enjoy the views from 24th floor. I'm not sure though if the haze was on the outside or in between the glass layers.

    A Truly Excellent Experience

    My experience at the hotel was truly excellent. The staff was courteous, professional, and very attentive, providing outstanding customer service throughout my stay. The food was delicious, and I particularly appreciated the exceptional service during breakfast. I visited two of the hotel’s restaurants, and in both, the attention to detail and quality of the meals were remarkable. I felt comfortable and well cared for, just like at home. Overall, I had an excellent stay at the Riu Plaza Panama. Thank you for your hospitality.

    A great stay

    I was impressed with the hotel, associates really professional and friendly, helping with anything. Room was comfortable with all amenities necessary, including a safe. Hotel has a fitness center a swimming pool with a bar and has a restaurant, convenience store, gift shop and a bar, with a variety of beverages and cocktails and more. Has a transfer service for you go anywhere in the city, has a 24 hour service for food. Really was a great choice. Around the hotel, you have a lot of options for your quick bite or lunch.
