“Perfect!”
Very nice and cozy hotel, well equipped, clean, perfect location, nice and helpful staff. Breakfast was also very good in the near restaurant Bella Vista, where is an interesting ambiance. We loved our stay in Bocas town.

“Way better, than one expected.”
This is a very small boutique hotel with, I think, no more than 20 rooms, which makes the whole experience feel very cozy. The staff remembered us, were very friendly, and chatted with us on every available occasion, but I think that’s just how Panamanians are. After letting them know that we were staying there for my partner’s birthday, we received an upgrade to one of the Luxury Suites located on the very top (3rd floor), with a view of a port where, three times a day, you could see the ferry loading and unloading, which definitely added to the local experience.

“Really enjoyed our stay.”
Lovely hotel in great location, close to bars and restaurants and water taxi pier opposite for access to other islands and beaches. Breakfast (included in the price) in a nearby restaurant was also very good.

“Not recommended because of poor internet and elevator problems.”
The friendly staff were helpful and truly the best part of the stay. The restaurant where breakfast was available was close by and food was very good. The room was cleaned well daily. The hotel is located in a very good area close to restaurants and stores.

“Loved it! Thoroughly recommend!”
Everything! What a great hotel in a great location! We had a Queen Deluxe room which I thoroughly recommend with a great view. It was so spacious. And the staff were lovely, particularly our check-in lady (Hercilia)! Right opposite the boat trip company - everything was perfect and we really enjoyed our stay!

“Great stay in Bocas.”
Hotel Palma Royale is great! The bedroom was spacious, and the hotel kindly upgraded our room to a better category free of charge. Everything was very clean, and the bed was extremely comfortable. The only downside was that our flight was moved an hour earlier, so we couldn’t have breakfast because the coffee shop was closed at that time.

“Fantastic room!”
The room was huge. The balcony was huge, with a hammock facing the sea. There was a coffee grinder and beans to make fresh coffee. Brilliant!!

“Great rooms, peace and quiet.”
Separate bedroom and big lounge with 2nd bed. Good facilities - fridge, tea and coffee and water cooler outside at the passage. Located at the end of the street so it was quiet and removed from the blaring noise from the many competing restaurants and establishments a hundred meters away. Well stocked deli next door. Within easy walking distance to the many restuarants and coffe houses.
