"Stay at Riu in Panama City (Marbella)"

8.0

Overall, the physical property was excellent. We were on a ‘quiet’ floor (27) in a suite, but it was a little noisy (near elevator). A little bit crowded. Breakfast had a nice presentation and selection, but again quite busy around 9:30am. Last day (Monday) had breakfast at 7:30 and much less crowded. Wish there was a bit more live entertainment available in the hotel. Seems to only be available midweek Tues-Thurs in the lobby bar. Several nice restaurants nearby (walking distance).

"Perfect Location"

8.0

Hotel Riu Plaza Panama was perfect for our stay, it was centrally located making uubers easily accessible. The property was beautiful and esthetically pleasing in some areas. Great city views form the rooms. My only complaint was the crown level lounge not allowing you to take snacks and beverages out of the lounge, it was weird. Nonetheless I recommend this property.

"Beutiful Downtown Hotel"

10.0

Once you arrive, it's an oasis. Traffic downtown is a mess, but once you get here, it's wonderful. Great, large room, amazing view, and the breakfast buffet will overwhelm you.

10.0

FIRST TIME IN PANAMA CITY. I would stay at Riu Plaza again for sure. Location was great. Everyone very friendly. I recommend doing as much cultural tours as possible. Food is great. The breakfast was amazing every morning. If you book a tour thru the hotel ask for Mitchell to be your guide.
