Our stay at Black Lion Inn was pleasant, it was a convenient place to stop on our way to David, Tita was very personable and accommodating with our very limited Spanish on arrival. Warm shower, cold aircon, comfortable bed and convenience stores and a bakery close by.

one night stop back from santa catalina

The staff is very kind, easy to access from the panamericana, parking just outside the entrance. There is a panaderia close by and a bar open still late, also a little supermarket.

Checked if we made our connections after leaving. Caring management.

The management support team made our stay good by helping us with the bus to go about a km down the highway to get supper. Then another support person carried out a suitcase, got us on a bus the following morning to Panama City. Both young people spoke English and showed helpful skills at a difficult time. No charge for my tiny dog. Very nice of them.

It was a nice stay but as mention there is no place to eat on the premises, only a very simple bar.

Clean rooms and friendly staff.

No restaurant in hotel or nearby. Traffic noise at night was high as it is beside the main Highway.

We have stayed at the Black Lion before. It is an eclectic roadhouse-type stop that is always clean and a great value. It is pet friendly!

A very good Inn with cozy rooms

The hotel fulfills everything you would expect from an Inn. It is clean, well located on the Panamericana and the staff was very friendly. The wifi is also great.

Perfect quaint safe stay!!

Host was great! Spoke English! They were also able to save my food for me as my cooler had broken. The owner cut up my Avocado for me in the am before I left! SO VERY COURTEOUS!!! I would highly recommend as a short night's stay in Santiago! Very cute place, rooms were probably average for hotels, nothing fancy. the grounds were cute and area secured and locked and attendant at night spoke English and was very helpful!

simple, comfortable and straightforward

the Black Lion inn knows exactly what it is: a budget highway stopover on the way to/from Boquete. With this in mind it is great! Clean and spacious rooms. friendly staff. Place to do some work/eat. Working AC. there was a backery and mini market near by that offered all we needed. The little huts outside the hotel were a great location to eat surrounded by flowers and protected from the rain. All one can ask for!
