Review of Hospedium Princess Hotel – Panama
Our stay at Hospedium Princess Hotel was a mixed experience.
On the positive side, the front desk staff were friendly and helpful. We arrived before check-in, and they were kind enough to store our luggage while we went out, which we really appreciated.
Unfortunately, once we got to our room, we noticed several issues. The room key card frequently had trouble unlocking the door, often taking multiple attempts before it worked. The room also had a noticeable musty, smoky odor, which may have been coming from the carpet. It took about 10 minutes for the hot water to become hot enough for a shower.
The bathroom cleanliness was disappointing. There were black grime spots around the floor, tub, and other areas.
I had to report twice that our room had been cleaned but no fresh towels had been left behind. We also placed the “Do Not Disturb” sign on our door, yet housekeeping still entered our room while we were away, which was concerning and defeated the purpose of the sign.
The elevators were also confusing. Two of them did not have a button for the lobby, so you had to remember which elevator to use if you wanted to get back downstairs.
Overall, Hospedium Princess Hotel is an okay place if you’re simply looking for somewhere to sleep after spending the day exploring Panama. However, the hotel feels dated and not particularly well maintained.
Also in the photo shows a “casino” please note there is no casino on the compound.
