Top Rio Abajo Hotel Reviews

Principe Hotel and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Walkable location"

Central Hotel Panama Casco Viejo

8/10 Good

"Everything was pretty awesome. The pool and surrounding area was a little small and disappointing, but still it was a great temperature and seemed clean. The gym was great with clean equipment in good condition. The included breakfast was great with lots of options and great service. I didn't use the spa or dine at the bistro, but it seemed ok. Amazing shops and restaurants all around. Overall, I would stay there again."

Courtyard by Marriott Panama Multiplaza Mall

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location was excellent, right next to the mall, which made shopping and getting around super convenient. The staff was outstanding, friendly, professional, and always willing to help. The room was spotless, and the housekeeping team did an excellent job. The breakfast offered a wide variety of options, though it wasn’t exactly to my personal taste. Overall, it’s a great hotel, and I’d happily recommend it given its unbeatable location and excellent service"
