Gran Hotel Bahía

Overall very nice place with lots of space. Kitchen is minimalistic but with a little imagination, you can prepare a reasonable meal. AC works great and the showers are good. Not fancy but but clean enough and centrally located.

Great location, the rooms could use some refresh, we had one that was slightly older than the pictures promised. Still, it was a good experience considering location, breakfast and also the pizza place that they have in front of the hotel.

I thought this place was great, the location is the best feature, it's right at the end of the main drag and right across from my favorite boat tour co-op. It feels like a southern plantation home that's been renovated into a hotel. Breakfast options were limited so if you want variety, I wouldn't buy the breakfast here for more than one day. But it's a great deal for breakfast, I don't think we would have eaten anywhere else at that price. It might be helpful to know that breakfast is actually not hosted in the same building, it's at a different restaurant a couple of minutes down the street. Everything in the room worked great, the AC, hot water, bed was nice, and it made for a great weekend.

Decent stay in this basic hotel. A bit expensive for what it is. Nice terrace area on the top floor where you can bring food and drinks. Free water cooler and tea was much appreciated. Staff were friendly. Room was a bit small, and washroom was quite cramped, and overall a bit dated. Wouldn’t mind staying again at the right price.

This hotel was wonderful! The building and rooms were clean and comfortable. The staff is so friendly! It's at the end of the main road but is absolutely walking distance to everything. And being at the end, it was a little quieter, not so surrounded by parties and bars.

Positives: the hotel has wifi and airco. Negatives: rooms are very dated, bathroom has got a dirty shower stall and is so tiny you can't even put your toiletries anywhere, under mattress is stained, the walls are so thin you can hear everything your neighbor does. The breakfast is very very basic which is ok if it weren't for the fact that everything including perishable items are put on a table in the hall in 30c degree weather and not being cooled which I think is downright dangerous. Tip if you are staying in this hotel ask for a quiet room away from the main street since the disco tends to go on until 4.30 am and is loud. We stayed here 3 nights but I'd recommend to use it for 1 or 2 nights tops.

The staff are the best thing about this hotel, but otherwise, there’s not much to be positive about. The hotel is pretty old and tired, there was no safe in the room, no hot water (although this did get fixed after two days) and the cistern kept refilling unless you opened it and put the plug back in. It’s also incredibly noisy outside - not the hotel’s fault - but we were woken every night by loud music going on until the wee small hours, lorries revving in the street outside waiting to board the ferry and the local cockerels who liked to start up about 4am, just as the music finished. The staff were friendly and helpful and breakfast was nice (you get a voucher for a restaurant just down the road), but we wouldn’t have stayed here if it wasn’t part of the package we booked.

We had a great stay (4 of us) in their apartment-room. The place was as expected. The staff was friendly and very helpful, the location was great on the south end of Bocas which is within walking distance to basically everything and still a bit on the quiet side (depending on the time of year and neighbours). AC in the 2nd room was placed above the bed, which made it a bit cold at night with the draft. The hot water stopped working, but since you'll be steaming anyway it was no big deal for any of us.
