A diverse multicultural city of almost 1.3 million, Panama City offers a lot more than an up-close view of the Canal. Shantytowns slink up alongside shiny high-rise condos. The Old City is an atmospheric labyrinth of churches, plazas and palaces. Fifteen miles from downtown Panama City, Soberania National Park is an excellent destination for hiking and birding. For a fascinating look at the canal, take a taxi or local bus to Miraflores Locks Visitor Center and look down on the traffic below.

I enjoyed a four nights stay with Fabrice, Sabrina, and their son Max. Max is now managing the lodge and keep everything running smoothly. Fabrice and Sabrina built a beautiful tropical garden and four lovely bungalows; nowadays, they look after their guests' comfort. I took one of the more secluded houses, set among trees and bushes, at the end of a small path; I felt at home. They are many birds and butterflies to observe. A few hammocks under the trees are waiting for you; a swimming pool is here to enjoy. The property is quite big and pleasant to walk around, also very secure as it is entirely walled. I enjoyed the bar; Max makes excellent drinks, for me, no alcohol. Good breakfast; Sabrina cooks delicious meals, always fresh. One evening Max invited two musicians, transverse flute and Saxophone; I enjoyed the concert. My Lake Gatun's excursion was a highlight; I could feel Max's passion and love for the place. In the end, we stopped for a swim in a tunnel formed by trees over a canal. As it is pretty near the city, the Monkey Lodge is an excellent place to relax after a long flight to Panama before exploring the country. Visiting Casco Viejo, Miraflores lock, and other points of interest by taxi is easy, and you will get tons of tips and ideas from Max, Fabrice, and Sabrina.

The Balboa Inn is a small Bed & Breakfast at the foot of Panama's main landmark, Ancon Hill (Cerro Ancon) in Balboa. Conveniently located between the downtown area, Amador Causeway and just minutes away from the domestic Albrook Airport, Casco Viejo, and the Panama Canal you are away from the city noise yet have access to all its services. The Balboa Inn: a great location, personal service, a real breakfast. Simply good value. Why settle for less?
Very nice, low cost and close to Canal Zone for viewing. Nice local restaurants for local cuisine. We ate at local establishments for lunch and dinner. Hotel staff was very helpful. You can watch Toucans in trees while eating your breakfast!

Room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good but you had no choice. It was what they served that day but was adequate. The staff was friendly and very helpful with questions. I recommend it as a good hotel at a fair price.

The amador was built with tailings from the Panama canal and there's a lot of fun, local spots all within walking distance of this hotel. The location is probably the best part of this hotel. You can see the skyline of the city without all the hustle and bustle. Next door is Punta culebra where you can see wild sloths and some basic aquatic exhibits. There's also a park, go karts and plenty of restaurants nearby. The rooms are basic with no issues, but the views from the room are great. The pool is small, but is perfect for kids. The beach is neat, because the tide drops the water about 100' twice a day. Only downside is that the wifi is pretty spotty and each room has their own code so you can use wifi outside of your room.

I booked via Expedia on this one needing a few days during a business trip. My biggest bugbear was WiFi. If you need a solid WiFi connection, look elsewhere. Do not be fooled by the reception area WiFi is good it's not. With that out the way what about the rest? The staff varied from helpful and trying to help to "don't make your problem my problem". The check-in was relatively swift and straight forward and the room was clean although dated and some broken equipment. The breakfast was basic but hot with unlimited coffee and within reason eat what you want. The Bar was available to guests when needed. The area does leave a bit to be desired but it is safe to walk about in but, I did not like the presence of "good time ladies" with one even doing a change of working clothes in the lobby in full view of the staff. However, the non-touristy eateries around serve good cheap Latin American cuisine and there is lots to do if you are happy enough to walk up the Ave Balboa. Overall 6/10 Staff 4/10 Location 4/10 Cleanliness 10/10 Food & Drink 9/10

Our stay here was an attempt to find lodging near some friends who live in Panama City. It was cheap, but grim. There was no way to lock our door. The sheet barely fit the mattress so the corners came off during the night, exposing the bare mattress. Cold water only in the shower (not that that is unusual in Panama). On the plus side, they do have a kitchen you can use and free internet - though you have to go to the lobby to be close enough to the router to make it work. The people were pleasant. Later in our trip we stayed in an excellent hotel for less than $10 more per night. Check Expedia and shop around.

I loved this hotel. It was clean, comfortable, friendly and helpful staff and good breakfast. Hotel will arrange to collect you from the airport, which was very helpful. Safe location with restaurants and cafes nearby. I particularly liked the small swimming pool and the open air seating area. Wish I'd had time to stay longer.
