Panama Canal Zone Hotel Guide - Historic Hotels in Panama Canal Zone, Panama

"The poolside service was extremely nice. Havent had issues at most RIUs so as expected hotel was clean, convenient, good location , we walked to restaurant like a block away which was pretty good"

"Clean and comfortable room. Bathroom needs an overall. Faucets are hard to open and close."

"Great ocean view with views of Panama Canal. Wonderful staff and walking trail on Amador Causeway."

"Lots of breakfast choice and long hours. V near metro. Clean room, comfy big bed and balcony. Enjoyed the pool and gym too"

"Great breakfast and staff. Pillow choice could be better, such as memory foam"

"Good location, but very basic room with bathroom and walls that need urgent maintenance. Very loud and no sound proofing between rooms and from outside!"

"My girlfriend and I had a great 3-day stat at the Principe hotel in Feb 2026 for a phenomenal price. The hotel was very nice, quite and clean with large rooms. We actually got moved right away to a far larger room (for no charge) because the A/C in our first room was not working properly. The staff could not have been nicer. The location of the property in the nice and safe Congrejo neighborhood was great, with plenty of good restaurants steps away. In truth, the Principe was one of the best stays/deal I have ever had in my travels. "

"Highly recommended "

"It prolly was a bad ass place once, but that was a while back. Room was ample, breakfast was very decent, place was generally clean. Our keys went outta whack four times, ride the elevator on someone else’s key up and down, go to reception, wasted ten minutes every time. No apologies whatsoever, nobody cared, it was prolly happening to everyone. Pools were not clean, service around pools nonexistent, bar was close. Chairs were very very old and need to be thrown away. Beach gets ugly when low tide happens. Food at the adjacent restaurants was comedic, but the price was dramatic, so that was entertaining! Service barely ok! If you have high standards, stay away. This is the worse Westin we ever stayed at. "
