Crowne Plaza Panama Airport, An Ihg Hotel (Panama City, Panama)

This hotel is pretty new so everything is in good order, with modern facilities and a fresh appearance. The rooms are kept spotlessly clean and include comfortable furniture so you can put your feet up and relax.

If you need to get up early for a flight, or perhaps are arriving in Panama late at night, this place is in the perfect spot for a stopover. It’s literally right outside the airport and just a six minute drive to the terminal entrance.

Expect a high level of customer service when you stay here, the staff are approachable and professional. If you have any requests, no matter how big or small, they will be dealt with quickly and politely.

If you want to use the airport shuttle service provided by this hotel make sure you double check the departure time and give yourself plenty of time before your flight. Unfortunately the shuttle bus doesn’t always run on time and sometimes it doesn’t turn up at all!

Avoid the hotel restaurant if you can, the meals served here are simply not up to scratch. If you have no choice but to eat here, expect small portions and low quality ingredients at extortionate prices.

Some of the rooms here face the highway and suffer from the traffic noise outside. Request a room away from the highway, and if you have to stay in a noisy room make sure you remember to pack earplugs.
