Le Méridien Panama

Solid hotel-a little bit dated but good value for money. Stayed here two nights-Club is under renovation and the gym is currently in a converted room on one of the floors. That said, my room was spacious and clean, the desk and breakfast staff were friendly and helpful, and when I stayed at least the cost of the room was significantly better than any other comparable Marriott property in the city. I’d stay again, but I’d love to see the property get the refresh it deserves!

Stayed in November 2025, for a pre cruise 3 night break, a very nice hotel in the financial district. All staff are very friendly and always willing to assist. Breakfast is buffet style with option of fresh cooked omelette, this also serves as the bar and restaurant in the evenings, good value prices for drinks and food. Our room on the 3rd floor was very large with good quality toiletries, and comfortable beds ( two king size).|However, there is a distinct smell of old mouldy probably from carpets, and therefore due a change.|Nearby there is a good choice of bar/restaurants, we chose Le Mers which had a great vibe and good drinks, other options are Goucho steakhouse (OK) but not great, and Mangle day time bar/restaurant which is very good |Highly recommend hotel, if staying in Panama for short break

I am extremely disappointed with my stay at Le Méridien Panama. I booked a king-bed room for a 3-night stay, and as a Marriott Bonvoy Gold member, I expected the room type I reserved and the usual elite benefits. Instead, I was given a room with two double beds and told that a (parking) “view” counted as an upgrade. After being told I would receive a suite at checkin and waiting for nearly two hours, I was just informed it was not in a condition to be offered. No compensation or meaningful gesture was provided considering late check-in, the room type booked not being provided and no elite benefits honored — I was only offered 1 single glass of wine (for 2 guests) after insisting which felt so dismissive that I refused. On top of this, the hotel’s service was consistently poor: housekeeping was unreliable, towels were missing, and basic items like water were not replenished. The 2nd day I was called to say the correct room type was “finally available,” but with a 3-night stay, changing rooms every day is completely unreasonable. Marriott Customer Care and the hotel’s executive team were made aware, yet no action was taken to improve the experience. For a brand like Marriott, this level of service is unacceptable. In Panama, the service standards at Hilton and IHG are far superior to what I experienced here. I will seriously reconsider staying at Marriott properties in the future despite being a Gold member for years !

Our room wasn’t the best since there was construction right in front of the window, and unfortunately, the hotel could only offer a change with an extra fee. That said, I still want to give 5 stars to the amazing staff who made our stay memorable. Everyone treated us very well, especially the breakfast team and Dayana. Dayana was incredible... so helpful, kind, and attentive to me and my wife. God bless you all, service team! You truly make the difference.

I've stayed at several Marriott hotels, and I thought this one was going to be a great hotel because it's in the capital of Panama, but it was a huge disappointment. I paid for a Diamond room, and it didn't include breakfast. The room was a bit dirty, and the floor had some grime, and it was also sunken. The room didn't have a microwave or room service. The small tub didn't work. At breakfast, the options were limited. I don't think anyone uses the pool because there's construction behind it, and when I went up there at night, everything was turned off and there was nothing to eat. And the traffic omg! If u reserve a ocean view room, prepare to the traffic noise starting at 5 am.The only thing I can say is that I liked the view and the location of the hotel. But I can say that there are other Marriott hotels around the area that are better and more reputable.

The hotel is very dated. We were on 5th floor hall is filthy and the floor has major issues. Sagging in many places. Our room was ok. The carpet is very old. The rooms are very large and our bathroom was nice. The staff were great. Not sure what’s up with HVAC rooms are ice cold and mildew is very pungent throughout the building

The hotel needs major renovations - from the floor and carpet to the elevators not working, just a shame this is a marriott chain. ||To start the room floors have carpet that are heavily damaged and floor is not even. You can feel lumps in the floor when walking. The rooms have a humidity issue where they have installed a humidifier in the room. The elevator broke during my stay and i had to walk up 7 flights of stairs. But the worst part of the stay was seeing hair that built up in the shower, nasty.||The positive side was the front desk folks were all friendly, helpful and represented Marriott in a positive way. ||But overall, I am in shock that the hotel is part of the marriott group of hotels. Have never stayed in Marriott hotel with such low standards.

Very nice hotel. Spacious rooms. However the hotel is only 6 levels high . My room had city view. But I doubt ocean view would be great because not very high. Service was good. Breakfast good also. |Very centrally located. Very nice restaurants just behind the hotel.
