What a great “boutique style” hotel. Great lobby, fantastic restaurant, great food, and coffee. They even had a DJ during the day in the restaurant. The rooms are colorfully and tastefully decorated and very spacious. The rooftop bar has an amazing 270° view and even has an even higher perch with a 360° view. Lastly, the location is fantastic in the old city & close to everything Would definitely stay there again

Overall, we had a great stay. The location was very central and made getting around easy, especially with convenient Uber pickups. The hotel was clean, lively, and a great value for the price. The food and drinks were also high quality. We honestly didn’t spend much time eating or drinking at the hotel, but that had nothing to do with the quality. We just wanted to get out and explore as much of the city as possible. Overall, a great place to stay and we’d definitely recommend it.

Really funky hotel in great location in Panama’s old town. Surrounded by colonial buildings, shops and views. Cathedral and canal history museum. Tantalo is famous for its rooftop bar which serves great cocktails, has an amazing view and loud music to 3am which does reach the rooms to some extent.
