Top Independence Square Hotel Reviews

Hotel Riu Plaza Panama

10/10 Excellent

"This is my second time visiting. The first time we visit we really enjoyed our suite. On our most recent trip the room was clean and our check-in agent was super helpful and polite. The room was a bit warm despite adjusting the AC, but we never complained. However, we would definitely come back a third time. The servicers at the pool could be a bit more attentive, but other than that great trip!"

American Trade Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"El ambiente super , el staff increible. El hotel super centrico. Lo recomiendo 100%"

Central Hotel Panama Casco Viejo

10/10 Excellent

"Great location in Casco Viejo Breakfast buffet was good !!"

Tantalo Hotel

8/10 Good

"I would stay here again. There were no chairs in my room, and the central light was burned out. So I didn’t get any work done in my room, but the AC was cold, the food was good, and the staff was friendly. The rooftop bar is noisy, but the AC helped mask the sound."

Hotel Plaza Herrera

10/10 Excellent

"Wow! Exceptional staff. Amazing architecture. So much ambience... Appeared to be freshly updated. 10 out of 10!"

Hotel San Felipe

10/10 Excellent

"This property is set in a great location and is very cute and clean. The bed was great. The staff was very nice and efficient without being overwhelming. We didn't eat at the restaurant because we did a lot of exploring but would definitely stay again. The only thing I would say needs some improvement is the wifi strength it wasn't always reliable."
