Top Gatun Hotel Reviews

Radisson Colon 2000 Hotel & Casino at Cruise Port & Duty Free Mall

10/10 Excellent

"Very friendly and helpful staff"

Gamboa Rainforest Reserve

8/10 Good

"Friendly staff and beautiful location. Loved our room with a view of the river with a hammock. We especially enjoyed the aerial tram, monkeys, sloth and butterfly exhibits — the tropical landscape is magnificent. It is very hot and humid, be sure to swim and stay hydrated. Lots of memories made here."

Gatun Lake Lodge Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our time at this property and would definitely recommend others to visit during their time in Panama. Sure, the lodges are a little rustic in places but they are perfectly comfortable. The setting in the lake is beautiful, with a great pool, free kayaking facilities and places to completely switch off. I loved how calm and relaxing the place was. Most importantly, the staff are superb. Friendly, attentive and fantastic hosts. We felt well looked after here. The food on offer was great, and food & drinks reasonably priced. Top tip would be to make sure of the kayaking and boat trips. Definitely book the Monkey Island trip – we loved this trip and made the stay even more memorable."

BirdHouse@Gamboa, Panama Canal

10/10 Excellent

"Such an amazing stay, from the house, to the surroundings and the owner. We used all the recommendations (Kamir is a great cook and wonderful person), went on a boat tour and enjoyed the Embera trip. It was our first time in the jungle and Gamboa was a great experience. Safe and friendly all around!"
