The three-pearl Novotel Panama City offers modern and eclectic interiors that focus heavily on bright, local artwork. This is especially true for the restaurant and bar which features international food and a hot and cold breakfast buffet (for a fee). While there’s no pool or spa, the hotel has a modern gym and business-friendly amenities like meeting rooms and Mac public computers. The 100 rooms are more modern and come with all the amenities one might need like minibars and coffeemakers. The hotel’s location lends itself more to business travelers than exploring, so tourists might consider Las Clementinas, located in the historic city center of Panama. Just be aware that the convenient location brings a higher price tag.

This 103-room chain hotel is on a beautiful 18-hole golf course about 30 minutes outside of Panama City -- but the main feature of the property is its position surrounded by miles of untouched rainforest. The hotel features self-guided nature trails and a lovely butterfly garden. The property itself includes two outdoor pools, four restaurants and two bars, and simple, modern rooms with large flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi. However, the overall generic decor and the fact that some areas are in need of updates mean this hotel does not live up to its four-star rating.

Located near Panama Bay, the three-and-a-half-pearl Ramada Plaza Panama Punta Pacifica offers bold, modern styling and better amenities than most Ramada brand properties found stateside.

Common areas have a chic, contemporary feel with charming Panamanian accents to maintain the local flavor.
