Not a high end luxury property, but Great room and facility for the price. Very convenient to a huge variety of restaurants within 2 minutes walking. Very safe area. Perfect for a business stay, walk to malls and banking centers, with a good desk, fridge, and coffee maker. Lastly a very relaxing pool, 24 gym, and lounge on the roof with amazing views of the city.

The receptionist was very pleasant and the checkin process great. The room was clean and the view was beautiful. The breakfast variety each morning was definitely a plus and was well prepared. The sky bar and pool were awesome. I will definitely return here whenever I revisit Panama.

The pool was always packed with people for its size. No ones fault it just happened to be what was going on. Only thing I missed was a microwave in my room. The ladies at the front desk always went beyond to help me with everything they were wonderful. Isis is fantastic but its hard to not give all of them a great big thank you.

I stayed here several days and then there was some rain. I left the hotel for s couple of hours and to my horror the room was flooded. The staff after seeing how bad it was offered another room but never offered any assistance moving all our things. Also some things on the floor was messed up. No compensation at all was offered, actually it was to the contrary, the person I stayed with was embarrassed. Because this is a worldwide brand bame not local I expected better. I was disappointed.

We recently stayed for five nights at the Best Western Zen Hotel in Ciudad de Panamá and had a wonderful experience. The hotel provided a very comfortable stay, with clean, modern rooms and a peaceful atmosphere. The highlight was the included breakfast, which offered a variety of delicious options each morning, setting a great tone for our day. The staff were friendly, attentive, and consistently helpful, ensuring we felt welcome. The location was convenient for exploring the city, and we appreciated the hotel’s amenities and overall attention to detail. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Panama City.excellent service and value!
