Hotel Riu Plaza Panama
"We stayed at Riu Plaza Panamá for 3 days and honestly could have stayed longer. The location was perfect for us, very central to everything, and we even walked to the Cinta Costera in about 20 minutes to enjoy the views and get our steps in after eating entirely too much at breakfast every morning. ..."
