The property is great as we had no problems. For me I like being able to have a balcony with lots of sunlight. The building has no balconies and with the nearby towering buildings it can be difficult. I do plan to stay there again as the friendly staff and amenities make up for the balcony issue.

We had a suite with a kitchen. It was a good size and well-equipped. The staff at the hotel were very friendly and accommodating. The included breakfast was good with a variety of warm (not hot) and cold options. Unfortunately, the eggs were never hot - they were on a hot-plate that didn't seem to function. Pro tip: order an omelet. Overall, our stay was excellent and I would not hesitate to return to this hotel.

My wife and I travel a lot and this was easily the cleanest, nicest hotel we've ever stayed at. We stayedd for a week and I can't say enough good things about both the hotel and the wonderful staff. The daily breakfast buffet is fantastic as is dinner in the restaurant, and there is also a terrific little bar with a cozy outdoor patio to relax and have a drink. Every member of the staff goes out of their way to make you feel special. If you're considering a stay here, don't hesitate. You won't regret it.

This is the place to come if you are looking for a comfortable, quiet, relaxing and high end stay. The service of this property was top notch. It is a refined hotel with a laid-back yet luxurious environment. The staff is very attentive and very nice and they made me feel like I was at home. I appreciated the fact that they remembered me and greeted me by name whenever I walked through the lobby. They have the best curated music selection too! I can't say enough about the wonderful restaurant and bar on the property. Every meal I had was delicious and the bartender, Axel, was exceptional as was all of the staff I encountered during my visit. Everyone was so nice and extremely professional. The guest ambassadors at the front desk were amazing and they made sure my needs were taken care of. The Spa is beautiful and smells heavenly. Although I didn't get a spa service or treatment during my short stay, I did go up to the area just to check it out and I was greeted very warmly and the services were explained to me. The next time I come I'll definitely take more time to indulge. This visit was my first trip to Panama and Staying at the Bristol made me feel so fancy, LOL. I absolutely loved my stay and I will definitely be returning again soon. It's truly a very special place!

I usually don’t write comments. But the breakfast experience is exceptional. The food was very delicate and the stuff was amazing. They have a room for children where they can look after your children when you enjoy your breakfast. If you have children, highly recommend the breakfast. The hotel room I would say it is ok, after all the hotel is relatively old. But they didn’t have toothbrushes so be prepared.
