Hotel Palma Royale was a good property, we stayed in the suite so we had a kitchen, which was fun as we were able to cook and entertain friends that also traveled with us. Its a cozy hotel, and has all you will need. However, there are water jugs in the hallways for guests; it ran out and we called letting know, they mentioned it wouldnt be refilled until the next day because "there wasnt many guests staying that night". The elevator is very small as well, literally only fits 1 person and their luggage or 2 people without luggage. Other than that it was a decent property and focal location.

The property is on the corner of the island, so it is less noisy, but the property is not on the water like many other hotels. Rooms were clean and maintained with AC and Water (drinking and bath). My only complain is airport pick up. I didnt know that airport pick was available, so we took self-paid taxi. However, hotel staff mentioned that only one way is provided by the hotel which didnt make sense. Overall, good experience.

The perfect hotel in Bocas main island
I absolutely loved staying there because it is so conveniently located where the main street is in Bocas. They also help book tours which are literally in front of the hotel. I love the staff, always kind, friendly and professional. I had the most amazing time there and hope to come back soon.

short break
This small hotel is located at the end of the main street so a bit away from the booming music of the many bars frequented by a very young crowd - thought it was Spring break or something as so many around. There is a water taxi station across the street. There is no restaurant in hotel and you have to walk to a restaurant a few minutes away with your breakfast voucher. There is very little in-room amenities but a small coffee machine which is not conducive to making tea and even when you pour the water through there is a lingering coffee after-taste. Water coolers are located outside of rooms to fill water jugs as drinking local tap water is not recommended. Front desk staff were very friendly and helpful in booking local tours and activities. There is not much to do on the main island Colon but definitely worth the water taxi to explore Pollo Beach and the stunning Red Frog Beach on the Isla Bastimentos; we even saw dolphins on our way. Bastimentos sky canopy zip line tour was scary for me but amazing through the rainforest and guides on hand to help. Bacos del Toro is great for relaxing after Panama City and the staff at Hotel Palma Royale try their best to make your stay comfortable.

Very old location and in very loud area, they make you give your key back to the front desk every time you leave the hotel.
