Bristol Panama

Fantastic staff and facility. Great breakfast and a great, quiet location.

I've stayed here before. Unlike the big hotels, the Bristol provides personalized service and very nice rooms. Wouldn't do the pre paid breakfast again. No variation in menu. Gets a bit boring after 2-3 days.

Very clean room. Kudos to Wendy and Gustavo, they were excellent. I wanted to acknowledge a server also, but I do not remember her name. She is short, worked in the mornings at breakfast time serving the coffee. She has very black hair, and a great smile always, kudos to her. Supper, the food served at that time did not meet my expectation. They need to improve on that. Great breakfast buffet though. I can empathize with the guest that was assigned a room next to the linen closet. I think that we got that same noisy room.

The room and bathroom were clean and upscale! The pub and restaurant were excellent. i loved the touch of cold bottled water and a chilled wash cloth at check-in. One elevator is out of order and the other was heavily used by hotel staff....wife and i walked stairs three times in four day stay! pub staff moved so slow to any request! Hotel driver ripped us off with huge fee for short ride.

Everything! The hotel staff was very accommodating and the hotel was lovely. The pool was somewhat disappointing, but in a building like that, surrounded by such large buildings, there's not much to be done. Also there was a cab driver associated with the hotel that charged a group of four $40 to go to Casco Viejo from the hotel. Total rip off! I believe his name was Franz.

Breakfast buffet Staff Bar was overpriced! Wine pours were extremely small.
