I absolutely enjoyed my stay at Riu Plaza, Panama.The hotel is extremely clean, the staff is friendly and helpful, location is exceptional as a lot of stuff is close by, KFC is right outside the hotel, Multiplaza is about a 15min walk if you like to walk. My only two downsides were: 1) the AC & the rooms being too cold even with the ac off. 2) I requested breakfast to go as I was checking out at 6am the next morning, I put in the request the night before & the receptionist told me "if they feel like giving it to me I'll get it", I was most confused as I paid for breakfast so how can I get it "IF they feel like giving it to me". On the morning of my checkout the other receptionist told me there isn't any request for breakfast to go & I assured him I made the request & what I was told, he then told me go buy breakfast at "Capital Takeaway" which is their in house cafe, and I told him I wasn't buying breakfast as I paid for breakfast. He eventually went to capital takeaway and brought me stuff that I didn't have to pay for which was nice however it wasn't stuff I ate so I just gave it away.... All in all I'll be back but please fix the situation on taking breakfast to go if the request was made the night before. I was checking out at 6am which is reasonable enough as the kitchen staff comes in 5am/5:30am

I stayed here for my birthday for a week. I’m not sure why this is considered a five-star hotel when there’s plenty room for improvement. The pro- breakfast, constant staff out in the front entrance, the in-house events and convenient location The cons- limited staff speaking English, extremely noisy until sun down, the staff cherry picks who they want to assist with baggage, GUEST have to pay to visit you unless common area, overpriced convenient store inside, limited seating at pool, the tub was cracked and filthy

I think the best thing about this hotel was the staff. Jennifer che ked me in and then anytime I had a question, she remembered my name and would assist. I do think the dining options were severely limited and because of the extreme amount of traffic, walking in the area is not advisable. So trying to figure out where to eat and what to have was not an easy thing to do. That could be improved.

The hotel provides a good service although I think there is discrimination with smokers since there is no area designated for this purpose. I think that today we are more inclusive in every way. This issue in this hotel is discriminatory. In short, I will not return again. to him, thanks
