The Crowne Plaza in Panama was my home away from home when I brought 8 very experienced travelers to Panama City for the first time. Hotel staff was nice, knowledgeable. Rooms well appointed, clean, comfortable- if traffic noise is an issue, please ask for a room on the back side. Location within walking distance of 3 casinos, several local area... more

The Crown Plaza Hotel leaves a lot to be desired. It was given a good review in Frommer's Panama, but it was the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. It actually has potential, but is very badly managed. They are NOT able to accommodate a non-smoker. I requested a non-smoking room upon booking and was told no problem. The... more

I spent 8 nights at the Crowne Plaza while attending a small international biology conference hosted by the University of Panama. Attendees were from as far away as Thailand and South Africa. The hotel provided an excellent meeting room, although I still wonder why microphones and public-address systems never seem to work very well. A separate room was used for... more

Breakfast was included but it was so bad, I ate out and paid. Towels missing almost everyday, old rooms at a premium price. Forget it. Never again. more

I booked at the Crowne Plaza Panama City from 5/27 to 6/3 because I am a Priorty Club member, and because of some personal recomendations I have recieved from friends who have stayed here. I've stayed at a number of hotels in Panama City, and I have to say this was the greatest disappointment. This is because I simply expected... more

I went to Panama city and stayed two nights at the Crowne Plaza. The hotel is wonderful and offers a very good four-stars service. Checking in was easy and the bell boys were extremely kind. Front desk staff was also kind and helpful. I was given room 417. The room was spacious, modern-styled, air-conditioned and in an immaculate condition. The... more

DO NOT STAY IN THIS HORRIBLE HOTEL. The hotel itself is fine, normal, nothing out of the ordinary. But a personnel member, be it most likely the cleaning lady or anyone else who has access to the master codes in the room Safes STOLE $2200 US dollars out of the ROOM safe which was locked up with my own 4... more

The only downside to this property is the smoking (I'm spoiled, living in Florida with our non-smoking laws). The rooms are good sized and clean. I was surprised at the number of channels available on the television. I had 3 phones in my room. The bathroom was large and the amenities were good. The dining room had a very nice... more

Great hotel. Deserves more stars than 2*. We called this hotel after we arrived and realized what a disaster our current hotel was. We got the same rate and the room was Fab-u!. Great staff, multi-lingual and very helpful. They helped us book a tour and assisted with restaurant reservations. Much more like staying at a 4*. This is where... more
