After several weeks of vacationing in Costa Rica, my husband and I traveled to Bocas del Toro for an extended weekend. We were looking forward to a change from the beach and the experiences a new location provides. We really enjoyed the “boat culture” of Bocas! We happened upon Hotel Bocas del Toro after one disappointing night at another local... more

After a bit of a chaotic trek from Costa Rica to Bocas del Toro my partner and I were in need of a bit of R&R. I was relieved to find that Hotel Bocas del Toro was only steps away from the water taxi, as I felt like my motor skills were in jeopardy of failing me due to exhaustion.... more

Basic, clean, reasonably priced accommodations. The room was comfortable, airy, with a nice view. The Limbo Hotel seemed cramped by comparison. The restaurant next door had better food. more

Bocas Hotel came highy recommended, it was average. Yes the owner greeted us andacted as if she would be very helpful,howeverwe never saw her again. The service was awful and we found ourselves looking for food and drinks with better service. The chicken strips were good homemade I think. But the best food was next door cant remember the name... more

Spent 5 days and had a fantastic stay. The rooms are clean and spacious, if a little pricey compared to others at Bocas. I loved the food, the menu selection and price compared well to the rest of Bocas. The bar is a great place to meet others in the evenings. Carla, the manager, was a great host. The staff... more

In all of Panama, this place has to be the worst. Two flights of stairs up to the room (nicely decorated), down to the restaurant and bar with no service, waking up in the morning covered head to toe with flea bites, walking in a tropical downpour to the "ferry" terminal, etc., etc. Panama is a wonderful country, but Bocas... more

Feedback at Hotel Bocas del Toro is viewed as an opportunity and not as a cost of doing business. Upon receiving notification at checkout and review of the Customer Comment form, an immediate inspection was made of the room and bedding. No infestation was detected. The hotel is professionally fumigated monthly and the room was fumigated as a precautionary measure....

We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. We had a room for 3, with an ocean view (well worth the extra $). The room was large enough for us, the beds very comfortable and it was very clean. Bocas Del Toro Hotel also has the best happy hour on the island. The staff were very helpful. We got 4... more

This hotel was awesome and the price was right. You can stay in Bocas town for as little at 8 dollars a night up to a couple of hundred of dollars. We paid $96 for a queen size bed and a spotless room. We started out staying 1 night because we weren't sure of our plans and ended up staying... more

Just got back from a week in beautiful Bocas Del Toro, and stayed at Hotel Bocas Del Toro. The hotel is on the water, and right in the heart of Bocastown. We had a regular room without a balcony - small, but not as small as I expected. It comfortably fit two people with embarrassingly large suitcases. The bathroom was... more
