The staff were top notch! Super helpful & nice, especially Javier, he spoke good enough English & was extremely helpful. We stayed for a night & I enjoyed my stay, I would stay here again. Upon arrival we got complementary cocktails. We walked across the street to a large supermarket & was able to get phone chargers, water and snacks. We also purchased hot dogs & juice from the street vendors outside, it was a great local experience for us. We later had dinner at the hotel, the food was bomb! Definitely a 9/10 (fish & plantains with salad). The hotel offers breakfast for free for 2 & although breakfast starts serving at 7am, we were able to get breakfast before we leave at 5:30. We had to-go plates waiting for us at front desk with our room number on it. We were very appreciative and we look forward to staying here again when we visit Panama. The only negative for me is the neighborhood isn’t the best kept, the rooms we paid for was suppose to have 2 Queen beds but we only had 1 twin & 1 double, I didn’t complain, we just took it since we got complimentary drinks & free breakfast & we didn’t expect that. Also, I was hoping the room had a fridge & it didn’t but we weren’t there that long, it was just an overnight. We stayed for a layover flight in Panama.

Every time my wife and I are in Panama City, we always stay at the Hotel Caribe. We are happy to spend our time there with such a friendly staff. Priscilla, at the front desk, knew we were coming, and had a refrigerator all ready waiting for us in our room. How cool was that. The bellmen team of Dioneil and Weeber are top knotch, helping with luggage, getting ice, and always opening the front door with a friendly hello, and how are you. The free breakfast is great with coffee, fruit , pancakes and eggs. So must better that just coffee, and a donut. We also enjoy the roof top pool, it's view of the City, and Pacific Ocean. There is a restaurant up there. With good food, friendly service, and a free welcome cocktail. All in all, the Caribe is a great place to stay while in the City for medical appointments and shopping. The is a 5 floor Department Store, the Machetazo with a supermarket across the street that's open 24 hours. Perfect for late night necessaties. We are looking forward to our return to the City and the Hotel Caribe in August, for another 5 ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ stay. Thanks .

Decent hotel, friendly staff the room was dated basic water pressure was not great but ok. Redeemable qualities breakfast was great best to get it included, decent pool size on the roof top and get a nice view of the city beautiful night view of the city. Not glamorous but if affordable is what you looking for it’s good for the price. Location not great at night to walk around but daytime no problem.

This is a nice budget hotel. It is about a 20min walk to Casco Viejo. However, the area surrounding it is ghetto. Im 6ft and 260lbs so i didnt run into any issues. There were quite a few homeless people in the area with lots of garbage on the streets. Dont be surprised if you see people actively using narcotics or prosititutes in the area. Aside from all of that, its about a 5 min walk to the main promenade. There is a loveoy bakery close by, lots of fruit stalls and a chewp supermarket. Lots of other street stalls close to buy clothes, hats, things like that. The staff were 10/10 for sure. Thr included breakfast is small but itll get you by for a couple hours. The rooftop pool is amazing. The blast the music very loud, i had to ask them to turn it down so i could actually relax and read a book and they were quite receptive to it. Overall id likely return as the price is right and its close to what i need.

Hotel Carib is our favorite place to stay in Panama City Friendly staff, roof top pool, and sunset dinners. Big beds, clean rooms, and even a small fridge if you ask for one. Free breakfast and a welcome aboard cocktail at the pool bar It's right across the street from a 5 floor department store and supermarket. El Machetazo for all your shopping needs. We'll always keep coming back. Ken & Debbie Filina

I have mixed views about the Caribe, the staff were excellent and friendly and the place clean. The hotel is in an ok location and it's very easy to travel to major sights by taxi for just a few dollars. On the down side the hotel had a few issues. Eg we had a blocked sink. However this was dealt with quickly. When our Aircon broke down we were moved roms. The restaurant is ok but I would like to have seen more local dishes on the menu. Breakfast was included and that was fine. The hotel appears to be undergoing an upgrade as some rooms were being refurbished. This didn't disrupt our stay of 9 nights The roof terrace and pool were good for relaxing in the evenings and served delicious cocktails for very reasonable cost. I think in summary a nice hotel with lovely staff but in need of a bit of updating, it felt quite 80s. I would stay again
