I took my girlfriend to El Riande Hotel for her birthday week, and it was an incredible experience that exceeded our expectations. On our way from the airport it took a little over a hour due to rush hour traffic (so, travelers budget your time for that). On our way to the hotel a couple days later, the trip back was only about 25 mins (we checked out of the hotel and headed for the airport around 1040AM). The hotel features a lovely swimming pool and a relaxing jacuzzi (We didn’t use those amenities). They offer breakfast from 7 AM to 10 AM, and while the options are simple and somewhat limited, I appreciated this as it helped me avoid overeating. The staff was exceptionally friendly and accommodating. Although we didn't dine at the hotel for dinner, we did take advantage of their tour services, and Kathy was particularly amazing. We will certainly be returning to El Riande Hotel.

I stayed here when we needed to spend a few days in Panama City for a visa renewal so we spent quite a bit of time in the room. The room itself was fantastic (we paid a bit extra to upgrade to a suite) and an amazing value for the money. The bed was incredibly comfortable and the room was bigger than expected. Good breakfast in the morning and decent proximity to restaurants. The downstairs has a fun little vibe with a pool table, bar, and fun decorations. Next time I am in Panama City I would stay here again.

This is a fantastic hotel for the price. You get everything you need -- pool, breakfast, comfortable room -- and with the excellent El Cangrejo location. The staff is very helpful. The breakfast cannot be beat! Typical Panamanian breakfast with fresh fruit, fresh OJ, and also great coffee.

First, the front desk staff here are very attentive and friendly. There was always someone available to help or assist when needed. I observed staff helping other guests with even the smallest of things. The restaurant staff are also very friendly and always helpful, even with my limited Spansih, they helped me order and didn't make me feel like an idiot. Breakfast is good with fresh fruits and buffet style eggs, pancakes and sausage. Everything was clean and nicely maintained. The pool was clean and inviting. Nicely equipped gym area as well as the outdoor restaurant area. The decor throughout the hotel is very chic without being over the top. Great location in the city, easy to go to other parts of the city. Did I say that the staff here are Great! There was a private party during my stay which would continue to 3am, one of the gentleman from the front desk informed me and offered to switch my room to the opposite side of the hotel to be away from the loud party. There were flyers posted in the elevator but I must have missed them. I'm grateful for his help and forethought to at least ask me. I made a huge difference. I also have a service dog with me. Everyone was very nice to my dog and assisted me with him without issue. I highly recommend staying here.

I love the location in El Cangrejo. It's very close to two metro train stations (Vía Argentina and Iglesia del Carmen), and so many great restaurants and shops! Also very close to a nice and lively city park. The staff were all extremely friendly and helped me out with scanning some documents that i needed to send. I appreciate that breakfast was served until 10am, as some hotels stop serving earlier. Breakfast was pretty good. Nice to have fresh fruit included. I used the gym, which was very nice and fully equipped. The social area is great with lots of space. Very nice restroom facilities next to the pool. Even though we didn't use the pool or hot tub, I thought that they were well-cared for and beautiful spaces. The room was great, hot water in the shower, and everything worked. Good wifi. Not the best view, but I knew that beforehand. I would definitely stay here again, and recommend it.

The hotel is really well located, in a 5 minutes walk you can go to Via Argentina where there are a lot of restaurants. And just one block away you are close to a metro station and to a big and busy avenue, Via España. The pool is nice and the staff really friendly.

The room and pool were great. The pool is always my favorite part of this hotel, it's nearly olympic-quality in my opinion. The location is very convenient, I could pick up cat supplies in walking distance.
