The rooms were nice and new! Beds comfortable, and a.c. The bathrooms are very nice and there is plenty of hot water. There is a coffee maker and coffee grinder so you can make your Panamanian coffee just as you want! The location is across from the ferry, and an easy walk to everywhere. It was very quiet at night,... More

Was thrilled with this hotel. Having an american style breakfast served in the restaurant was an added treat. Nice fresh juice. The little Carribean market next door is truly the best place to pick up any food/incidentals, by far. Excellent location overall. Close enough to the main area to be very convenient and far enough away to feel separate from... More

This hotel was GREAT! It was across the street from the ferry pier. We stayed in a deluxe suite on the 3rd floor. We had a wrap around balcony which was nice. The room had a large fridge, electric stove, plates, utensils, pots/pans, coffee beans, coffee grinder, and coffee machine. Breakfast was included and was delicious. The lighting could have... More

We stayed her for 4 nights - the first two in the two bedroom penthouse and then moved to a smaller one bedroom suite (we would have loved to stay in the penthouse for the entire trip but it was already booked for half of our dates). Both rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable. We loved the location and the... More

The Palma Royale should be at the top of your list if you are planning to visit Bocas del Toro. While there are many less expensive options available, the value received for the cost is exceptional. Our room on the third floor was large with a separate bedroom and wraparound balcony overlooking the water. It was very nicely finished and... More

We stayed here for three nights in March 2013 in room 413. We had views of the ferry terminal and the ocean, very nice balcony that wraps around the room. Nice spa-like bathroom with amazing shower, comfortable bed (except it seemed to be covered in plastic). I was sick when we were staying here so spent a lot of time... More
