I have no complains at all. Since the momment I arrived everything was smooth, people in charge was super nice and helpful, the place was very nice, the room was way nicer than I expected, the bathroom was big beautiful and clean, the pool was not that big, but it was cool since it wasn't crowded, the location of the hotel is very nice, near to everything. I'll definetly stay again if needed.

My stay started on the wrong foot when they made me wait 2 plus hours for my room. Then, they placed me in a room directly in front of on-going construction. So, I had to wait again, which further aggravated me.

However, the staff did make it up to me with a room upgrade and breakfast. From there on things were great! The staff were friendly, polite and helpful.

The location was fantastic! Close to everything i.e. restaurants, casinos, attractions, etc.

Thank you Le Meridien staff! I had a great stay and will be coming back!

This is a good smaller hotel to stay at. I would stay again in it. The dinning area was enjoyable and the food really good. The amenities were nice. I used the pool and gym and they clean and well maintained. My room very clean and the staff was very friendly. My only concern was the ac in the room was broken and it took a long time to fix. They should have given me a credit for the inconvenience; but overall the facilities are very enjoyable.

We booked this hotel last minute due to a 5 day flight delay by WestJet and the Westin Player Bonita not being able to accommodate the related last minute date changes. We did not have a great view in Le Meridian as construction was in progress however the manager Ruth and front desk staff very welcoming and helpful. The delightful old town was worth a daily uber ride to and while the city centre is very busy the restaurants were good (Gaucho and Les Mecs our favourites and only a 2 min walk away). The hotel had a great view of the fireworks on New Year’s Eve from the roof top. It was very hot and had hoped to sit by pool during some days but the pool is very small and never any loungers available. We could not find the gym so did not use this time. The restaurant had some nice local dishes and cocktails looked good. Staff great and felt safe.

Checked in and we got to our room. Almost instantly after walking in I sensed it was off. Went to the front desk and asked for housekeeping. After waiting for 30 minutes I went back to the front desk and asked to be moved because of the blood on the pillow, especially. After closer look with the front desk staff there was dirt on the bed covers, hair in the bed itself and blood stains on pillow covers. They changed our rooms, but was disappointed. After all that we asked for more coffee and tea and were told we can only have one per day. Last time staying here - the brand Le Meridian landed flat at this location.

Great hotel - unpleasant bed experience

Starting from the positive:
- great location
- beautiful hotel
- very spacious room with good decor (bigger than advertised)
- very nice bathroom
Negative:
- the bed didn’t have a normal cotton sheet, but instead a plastic coated sheet that was uncomfortable when sleeping and I am sure it was not the most breathable material. I actually had to call service in the middle of the night to check if someone forgot to place the normal cotton linen sheet, and I was told this was normal

The front desk staff was courteous and helpful. The ambience was dated. The breakfast buffet was unable to keep up demand. My biggest concern was the lack of toilet accessibility.

The property was in a great location with a lot of things in walking distance! The staff were nice and accommodating. However, the rooms were dirty and outdated. The white robes in the room had brown stains on them and smelled like mildew. There was never enough towels in stock so we had to repeatedly request until we finally got some. No towels at the pool as well. It took a very long time before someone brought some up. Lastly, there were bugs in our room. There was a black bug in the shower when I woke that morning to take a shower. The next morning when I entered the bathroom, there was a brown bug crawling on the floor. The room was not cleaned properly. I never complain to the staff and just made the decision I would never go back there.

Like the location hated our room

The overall condition of the hotel was fantastic. However, during our 2 day stay, if it could go poorly, it did. Our room was never serviced, when we went up to the pool there were no towels and after an hour and 4 calls later, we went down to the lobby soaking wet to get towels. We couldn’t even have used the towels in our room since it hadn’t been cleaned. Add to the mess, our room was immediately adjacent to the exercise area on one side and a room being renovated on the other. The noise began at 4:30 in the morning and didn’t stop until 10 pm. This room should not have been let. Had we been staying any longer we would have asked to have been moved. The front desk staff was excellent. Fernando Lasso was extremely friendly and helpful.

**2-Star Review:**

My stay at the hotel was quite disappointing. Upon arrival, the reception area did not provide any guidance about the hotel amenities, leaving us to discover things on our own. We had to inquire about the pool, which closes at 7 PM—way too early for guests. Once the pool was closed, the only option was to head to the restaurant for food or drinks. While I understand the need to close the pool, it would have been nice to have access to the outdoor lounge chairs for relaxation.

The staff's demeanor was inconsistent; some were friendly, while others barely acknowledged us. Additionally, the phone in our room was out of order, forcing us to trek down to reception for any assistance.

Towel availability was another issue; on our last night, we didn't receive any towels despite asking multiple times. Although they eventually sent some up, it was a hassle. The air conditioning also malfunctioned but was fixed after reporting it.

The most unpleasant aspect of our stay was the pervasive smell of mildew in the hallways and our room. I felt uncomfortable walking on the floor without slippers due to the uneven surfaces covered by rugs. We were on the third floor, and the condition of the flooring was far from ideal.

Lastly, the food was underwhelming and did not meet expectations. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this hotel and certainly wouldn't return.

Panama City

The hotel is located in a central area across from cinta costera. Great area for a morning walk, run or a bike ride.
There weren’t too many restaurants to choose from, in my opinion it is better to eat downtown to experience the true essence of Panama. However it is a 10 minute car ride to Casco Viejo if that is more your vibe. Overall good, no frills hotel and they supply free water in the rooms.

Disappointing stay

Upon arrival, we were asked to pay extra for early arrival, so we did. Once we paid we were asked to wait another hour to be checked in. The girl in the front desk was extremely stand offish, we were charged an early fee with no courtesy breakfast for an hour wait after paying to be checked in early. Whenever we needed something the staff was super dry, they only gave you one word answers for anything. We asked for recommendations for food and their response was either the hotel restaurant or “I don’t know”. For the Meridian brand, the building was super outdated and poorly maintained, could use some upgrading. Windows in the room were dirty and blocked the view. I do not recommend this place at all.
