Top Downtown Panama City Hotel Reviews

Bikini Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"Got a room with a beach view. No room service for 7 days. You are on the beach with a pool. Staff are friendly if you need something."

Palmetto Beachfront Hotel, a By the Sea Resort

8/10 Good

"We booked this property last minute due to availability. The price was reasonable and allowed us to access the beach easily even though we didnt stay on the beach side. We were able to buy ice for the cooler right at the front desk. Basically we just needed a place to shower and nap...it worked well for us. Would book it again."

SpringHill Suites by Marriott Panama City Beach Beachfront

6/10 Okay

"The room is okay and clean. The only thing was the bed sheets has a little smell to it. Breakfast buffet has a great selection and it was delicious. I love the beach access. Biggest problem was the elevators. This needs to be improve because it was too slow! We had to wait about 10 minutes for it."

Seahaven Beach Hotel

4/10 Poor

"The hotel is an old hotel which means it needs extra attention which I feel is not being given. The first room we were given, the sink was leaking in the floor. We were moved to another room. The floors were filthy. We bought our own swiffer and cleaner and cleaned the floors. The last night we were there, the people in the room next to us had the TV up as loud as it could go. I complained to the front desk. They sent security to the room but they couldn’t get anyone to come to the door. My husband finally went to the front desk and their answer was to move rooms again in the middle of the night. Apparently the TV had been on long enough that it went into sleep mode and I was able to get to sleep to be woken up again at 3 am to their loud TV once again. The pool was nice and the location is very convenient."

Chateau Beachfront Hotel, A By The Sea Resort

10/10 Excellent

"First let me stay this was my first time traveling to Florida and I couldn’t have picked a better time for my 40th Birthday weekend. When we arrived the staff was so polite and professional. Everything was given to us at the front desk including info about restaurants and activities. Parking was free and with plenty of spaces available. The room was very spacious, clean, and looked just like the picture. As soon as we walked out the door; the amazing ocean view was to the left. The only problem was the outlet connected to the lamp between the bed wasn’t working but that’s a minor issue. The appliances were clean and stocked for use. The walk to the pool was short and we enjoyed the tiki bar as well. Restaurants and stores were really close by either on walking distance or by vehicle. Let’s just say I booked a penthouse suite to bring my family back before I checker out. Thank you all for a wonderland first time experience! I will continue using this hotel in the near future."

La Quinta by Wyndham PCB Coastal Palms

8/10 Good

"I was not told that the hot tub was not working until I checked in. And it did not get fixed/addressed during the next five days that I was there. I also had to ask each day for clean towels and for the door leading outside to the pool to be unlocked. However, the room was clean and the hotel is in a convenient location."
