Top Independence Square Hotel Reviews

Hotel Riu Plaza Panama

4/10 Poor

"The air conditioning in the room was ineffective and did not cool properly. There was also a leak outside my room that created a very unpleasant odor. Overall, the experience was disappointing.”"

Hotel San Felipe

6/10 Okay

"We were in the B buiding. The air-conditioning in the room failed every afternoon and our last day it was out all night too. The staff brought us fans when we asked. There is clearly a problem with the central air. They claim they are closing the building and getting it fixed next week. First they offered a free breakfast when we complained after 5 days of this, then the last night they offered to move us to another hotel but we were too exhaused by that hour. Finally, when we were checking out, they reimbursed us for two days."

Hotel Casa Panamá

2/10 Terrible

"Absolutely terrible. Avoid this hotel like the plague. I paid online ahead of time and when I came to check in they had said I didn’t pay and refused to give me a room. I showed them my receipt, my booking id, and even my bank statement and the lady refused to believe and was incredibly rude. After talking to Hotels.com they tried to call the lady working front desk and she refused to pick up even though I told her they would call her. They ended up booking me a new hotel so I told her this and tried to leave. She then LOCKED ME IN and refused to open the door until I paid a “cancellation fee” even though I didn’t cancel in the first place. I had to pay for the room AGAIN just to leave this crazy lady and establishment. The place looked run down and was in a worse location that pictures described. Would give 0/5 stars if I could, absolutely terrible do not recommend."

La Isabela Suites

8/10 Good

"Very dpacious, good to have kitchen and different coffees and milk to start the morning. The stairs have no handrail so it was difficult to navigate and definitely not safe for Britain types of guests. Staff is friendly and responsive but they don't proactively check that light bulbs all work or the clock on the wall works, etc. Convenient to walk to everything or to her Uber."

Casa Lefevre By Wynwood House

10/10 Excellent

"If you want to explore Casco Viejo, the location does not get any better than this. The balcony faces Cathedral Plaza and is a quick walk to many galleries, restaurants and clubs. The apartment I was in had lots of charm and a great use of space. The check in and check out process was super easy. Also, the Wynwood team is always available on WhatsApp if there are any issues or if you need anything. "
