Panama City Hotels with Airport pickup service

We stayed here for 5 nights to be able to acclimatise to the weather in Panama. We got a room with windows to the floor, which gives a nice touch for the view over the city. The room is ok, spacious, but worn out. Specially the bathroom is in need of a make-over. The beds were mixed, one had a good mattress the other a soft one with a dent in it. Wifi worked very well. Very friendly staff. My main reason for 3 starts is that this hotel advertises itself as adhering to Planet 21, (link to Accor Planet 21 site removed  ) meaning amongst others that they are reducing food waste. Well, have a look at the pictures here and you'll see that a small portion of jelly is in a plastic cup, the abricot jam is in plastic, the butter is in plastic, and the youghurt as well. The third picture shows you the waste after having had breakfast... I know I have a sweet tooth ;) So, not really planet 21...

El hotel cumple con todo lo que se busca: las habitaciones son espaciosas, el servicio funciona muy bien. El desayuno estilo buffet no es tan variado, pero cumple con todo lo necesario para comer bien. Las instalaciones son lindas y agradables, sobretodo el área de la piscina y del bar. El personal en general muy amable y dispuestos a ayudar con todo lo que sea necesario. Lo que si, solicitar habitaciones que no estén cerca del área del bar, pues el fin de semana se escucha bastante el ruido, aunque no llega a ser molesto. La piscina es muy linda. Lo que sí, al parecer guardan cerca los contenedores de basura, porque algunos días, con el calor, se sentía un olor fuerte. Todo lo demás, excelente

Good service, good location, good breakfast and very good sushi in the restaurant....the rooms need a bit of updating because they feel dark but the rest is very good, the service people are friendly.

Excellent choice in Panama City, the rooms are perfect, neighbourhood is great with endless number of restaurants. Continental breakfast is amazing. We stayed here for 10 days, however 1 single issue did confuse & upset us: Here was the scenario explained to them: - 10 nights of stay - guest A&B stayed for the first 6 days. - guest A alone 7th day - guest A&C the last 3 nights. Told them upfront that 1 guest leaves & another will join later. They charged $27.5/day, admin fee to change a guest name!? This was after suggesting that we cancel with Trip.com & rebook again with the correct names. We told them it doesn’t make sense to do that & it was disappointing that they couldn’t offer any solution to a customer who just gave them 10 days of business & being a Riu Class member loyal to this chain.

We arrive to the airport, and a bus was sent for pick up by Riande Hotel. It has a shift every hour. The room was clean and a nice smell of roses. The pool is huge and warm at night. The bar near the pool was great, good drinks and great dinner. Next day we left to the Airport with the bus of Riande Hotel. Highly recomended

Hotel location is OK, the facilities inside are not new, but there is a fatal flaw, written in the end. There is a square downstairs facing the north. The sound is noisy. The high-rise house facing the east can see the sea view, not too noisy. It is OK. There is a balcony on the top floor and you can see the sea view. The scenery is good. The staff is friendly. The only fatal flaw is that this hotel does not have hot water for bathing. Looking at the comments on Google Maps, it is said that the hot water pipe has been broken for several years.

I stayed only one night in this hotel, the infrastructure is dated, mirrors in the bathroom have black spots but the worst is no hot water in the shower. The basin had hot water but in the shower it was cold. I reported it to the front desk who said they would have someone look but that never happened. The staff were friendly, the breakfast buffet was nice but the hotel rooms really need a makeover. With so many other hotels in the vicinity, I moved out of the Crown Plaza and into another hotel chain nearby

I had a very mixed experience here. When I first got there I got moved to 4 different rooms because in each room something else was broken or falling apart. It almost became comical at a certain point. It seems like they just don't want to take the time to fix the issues in the rooms. The room was nice and spacious and the bed was very comfortable. It wasn't a terrible experience, and the price was good, but this would never be my first choice.

We loved the location next to Panama canal and our view from balcony to passing ships and Bridge of the Americas. The staff was very friendly from kind receptionist to attentive bartender and they were all smiling and waving to our little son (4 months) every time they saw us. Gym was airconditioned and clean, opened till 12 am, swimming pool big and refreshing with sunbeds and umbrellas all around. Breakfast (7 usd per person) rich, tasty with good selection of fruit, chicken, saussages, ham, cheese and eggs. Free luggage room (even for couple days when we flew to Bocas) and shuttle to mall nearby. A taxi or uber cost 4 dollars to the city center or the fish market (Mercado De Marisco Cinta Costera). We made a great choice to book this hotel.

The location of the hotel is very good. It is very convenient to go to the Panama Seaside Boulevard and the ancient city. You can use Uber to call a car. The room has a panoramic view of the city, the sanitation is very good, and the breakfast variety is quite rich. There is a large seafood market at the intersection of the seaside boulevard and the ancient city, where you can taste lobster, fried fish and South American food. The price is acceptable.
