Cheap but lacking in necessities
Posted 24 Mar 2018
Location: The location is very close to the metro, which is nice if you would like to tour Panama conveniently. The food options are pretty good nearby.
The room appeared to be cozy and decently decorated with its orange theme interior, but was very lacking in that there was no running water at night and that the air conditioning fan was no match for the hot and humid Panamanian weather. There was nothing to be done about the water, but the hotel staff were helpful despite language barriers that caused misunderstanding about their shuttle bus services. It is also to be noted that in an effort to save electricity, the staff turns off the electricity when you leave (which is nice to the environment). So upon return, it is the responsibility of the guest to inform the hotel staff to turn on the electricity again (which we were unaware of until we returned to a sweltering, non-electrically functioning room).

Advantage of staying at Bella vista
Posted 23 Aug 2017The hotel is ok for the price. Staff are not particularly friendly and helpful. It is good that they have a pickup service although with delay.they also do not confirm the you will be picked up by email. But they have a regular pick up service at the airport which works quite well

I would stay again
Posted 2 Aug 2017 on HotelsTypical older downtown hotel
I choose it because it has a mini bus service from & to the airport. Normally the cab ride is $25 usd.
The ride is free to the hotel and without traffic, it is about 30 minutes.
$10 usd for ride back to airport
2 am 4.30 am 7.30 am are the morning opcions for the bus schedule
The desk was great jennifer was fabulous. She was off at 11 pm and had ordered the bus ride and filled out the wakeup call sheet before she left.
Set your alarm as they missed my wakeup call at 4 am, so I held up the van for about 10 minutes.
There is a good tipical food place 2 minute walk from the hotel toward the canal zone
Excellent meats & good prices with A GREAT wait staff.

Air conditioner loud, TV didn't work, only two electrical outlets in room; one in bathroom, one behind a cabinet you had to move to get to.

We felt very sorry that the stay was not to your liking, but it would have been important to have done the observation in the lobby of the hotel or with management and you would have changed rooms

Nice Budget Hotel
Posted 10 Jan 2017
Pros: Nice budget hotel for those active and needing a rest stop or base. Friendly staff (a small amount of Spanish will help).
Cons: Likely nothing that wouldn't cause an increase in rates.
Location: All of Panama City
Centrally Located. It's not a 4 or 5 Star Hotel but it's perfect for the traveler on the go.
