A two night stay before leaving Panama just before all flights were shut down. Services were curtailed but the stay went just fine. Panama City had a 9 pm curfew. I stayed here before and I like this hotel. It is a very good value.

La amabilidad de sus empleados sus atenciones su buena disponibilidad
Buen servicio, personal con buena disposición. Limpieza y comodiad en habitación. Buen internet. Considero se tiene que mejorar un poco tema del desayuno.
Hotel bem localizado e confortável. O metro fica atras do hotel mas só tem 2 linhas e passa longe das principais atrações. O local é zona hoteleira e financeira. A noite fica bem deserta. O local é feio e sujo.
As usual love the cookies, most of the statt was accommodating. They over booked hotel but Hilton looked out for me so, all was good in the end.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
Location good but staff and property needs a lot of improvement worst Hilton hotel experience. Check in terrible I waited over 2 hours as I arrived at 1:30pm and they don't let you check in until 3pm so the Lobby was full as they kept everyone waiting, not even a water I was offer nor they offer to keep my luggage or suggested places to go while I waited. All staff not welcoming, pool have no towels and you have to look or call to get someone to bring you towels as no one in pool area. Room was not service on one of the days I went out all day came back around 5pm and my room had not been done. I'm not satisfied with the experience in this hotel you not even get a bottle of water, a mini fridge with very expensive beverages and snacks. Will not stay here again
The staff were excellent, very knowledgeable and helpful, I ate more times at the restaurant there not only because of the food but then excellent and fun loving staff.
Excelente lugar, cómodas habitaciones, muy limpias.

The cookies are a real treat. We enjoyed our stay, the rooms were clean, bedding clean.
The building itself is getting a little worn. But logistically great.1
Liked-centrally located, decent gym
Disliked-We had issues with getting into our room with the key. There was no coffee in the room. Facility was dirty.

Good location ...easy to get around quickly ...the main entrance floor staff and concierge desk were friendly and accommodating and could communicate in English ....was very frustrating to have to ask for towels the first few days of my stay....housekeeping would clean the room but then not leave fresh towels ...had to repeatedly as before I would finally get some ....this occurred about 3 days in a row at the beginning of my stay??? I really couldn't understand it as I have never experienced anything like this in ANY hotel stay ...right up to having someone from the front desk with security to check to see that we were not taking the towels ???? what??? I'm here to sell towels on the side that I have stolen ??? Bizarre ....after about three days of this it finally settled down
Great location near to many restaurants and metro train station. friendly staff and clean hotel . I think $18 dollars for breakfast was expensive so i declined that offer. Otherwise i enjoyed my stay and would return again. thanks
