    “An outstanding experience from start to finish. The hospitality, attention to detail, and overall atmosphere exceeded my expectations. The accommodations were luxurious, the amenities top-notch, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure a memorable stay. The breakfast was by far the best complementary breakfast I ever had. From the fresh fruit to the wellness shots. It truly was an exceptional experience. It is in the perfect location. With 2 bars and a soaking tub in the room. I truly didn’t want to leave my room. Bristol will always be my go to hotel when visiting Panama. Overall a 100/10”

The receptionist, Danay, deserves our utmost gratitude for providing invaluable recommendations of places to visit and unique restaurants for my wife and me. Consequently, we wholeheartedly recommend this hotel.”

    “The hotel was very good. Room was large and beds were very comfortable, lots of pillows which we love. Rooms in the deluxe wing may need some additional TLC, they are comfortable but are looking a bit older. Breakfast was very good, would absolutely recommend having breakfast there. We would stay at the Bristol again.”

    “Beautiful rooms with high ceilings and extremely comfortable beds. We loved the turn down service! Although the onsite restaurant has good food, the ambiance is totally lacking for a hotel of this caliber. I will say the Cacao dessert is top notch and worth the less than stellar setting. The location is great for business I would assume. We were there for vacation, so next time we will stay in Casko Viejo.”

    “The hotel is well kept, in good condition and very clean. My only issue was that the water in the shower does not get very hot. At its hottest it is only slightly warmer than warm water. All in all, it was a great stay.”
