Overall Ratings & Reviews Tantalo Hotel

This place is a very cute boutique hotel with extremely friendly staff. The rooms are decorated by various artists which I love. The location is a perfect for the old part of town and walkable to so many cool places. My friends and wife chose this place to celebrate my birthday and my first baby’s gender reveal which was my birthday gift! The food of their Resturant was also very good. If you like local feel and authenticy please check this place out!!

My stay wasn’t four stars due to the lack of sleep, but I do not want to penalize the hotel for what was not hidden from me in the reviews. The hotel has a rooftop bar that was active until 2:30a Tuesday and Wednesday nights. They state that the room is 70% soundproof, though I suspect it to be less. I am a heavy sleeper and gambled that it would be quiet in the beginning of the week and because I have the ability to fall asleep with noise. Perhaps I may have been able to, but I suspect there is mold somewhere in the room. It wasn’t present to a point that I could smell it, but I am allergic tot mold and was unable to breathe through my nose when exposed to it. The staff were polite. The restaurant and property look nice. Has a nice rooftop bar. And, being in Casca Vieja, the location is great for the price. I recommend this to anyone in their 20s who would be enjoying the night life of Tantalo or other bars/clubs at later hours.

We enjoyed our 4 night stay in this hotel. There was a lot of noise but it didn’t bother us as much. The room was spacious, and the bed was comfy. The only complaint we have is that the food options and flavor are lacking in the menu

Tantalo was a very nice hotel. The staff is friendly and the food is really good. My room was clean and modern art decor. There is a rooftop bar with amazing drinks! Very great location 2 minute walk to Frances Suqare.

Really nice place to stay especially if solo traveling.

Unique property in Casco Viejo with wonderful staff. My room and balcony were gorgeous and so clean. The price was very reasonable and check in/out were a breeze. Definitely recommend!

Perfect IF you like to party till the early hours or if you are a heavy sleeper. Music is PUMPING till 2am weekdays and till 4am from Thursday for weekends. If I was 15 years younger this would be a great higher end alternative to staying in stay in.

O quarto é confortável e espaçoso. Café da manhã muito bom. Tem ótima localização no Casco Antigo. O bar no rooftop é agradável, divertido e oferece uma vista bonita.

Very caring front desk staff=Nashda, Jose, and Caroline. Octopus is excellent in dining room. Very comfortable bed. Never met management team for a welcome drink. They, somehow, wish to have loud music until 2-4a.m. in top floor viewing area. They even pass out earplugs for this ill-advised decision.

Rooftop bar!

Convenience and safety. Will get a better idea tomorrow with tour of area.

Loved this hotel, spacious and large room, staff was incredibly helpful and pleasant and very accomodating. Super fun bar on rooftop with great views of city and restaurant in lobby. In the middle of old town with bars and restaurants, stores and cafes. It's not a quiet hotel so up to you if this is for you or not.

The hotel's rooftop bar is open until 4:00 a.m., loud music, screaming crowd, and the management's reluctance to stop this nightmare, makes the stay at this hotel a torment.

--THEY CHARGED US FOR 3 DAY OF PARKING AND WE ONLY STAYED FOR 2 NIGHTS --NO PHONE IN ROOM --NO WAY TO MAKE COFFEE IN ROOM IN THE AM --1 NIGHT WITH NO TV ( CABLE WAS NOT WORKING)

Here’s a draft for your review: ⸻ I had the most incredible birthday weekend at Hotel TANTALO in Panama! From start to finish, the experience was absolutely unforgettable. The staff went above and beyond to make my stay special—they are truly the most amazing people I’ve ever encountered in any hotel. Their warmth, attentiveness, and genuine care made my birthday celebration extra memorable. The atmosphere, the service, and the overall vibe of Hotel TANTALO are simply unmatched. I can’t recommend this place enough to anyone looking for an exceptional hotel experience. Thank you to the entire team for making my birthday weekend so perfect! ⸻

Everyone is extremely friendly

Exelent customer service from the front desk Nashda ( She makes everything looks soo easy and smooth ). To the restaurant girls Maria, Carina and Diana ( this girls are Amazing ) make you feel welcome. I recommend this hotel.💯%

Enjoyed the unique decor and design of the property. Spacious room and comfortable bed created a welcoming space for resting. The rooftop bar was a plus with the friendly staff made my stay quite enjoyable. Casco Viejo area has a high police presence making you feel very safe.

Staff was friendly, room was clean. Decor is fun.

We were escorted to our room after we checked in to confirm there were no issues with our room. The Day Dreaming room was wonderful which had a balcony overlooking the street. It was a bit noisy with the bar below and the rooftop bar but that did not bother us. They do provide earplugs in the room but we did not need them. The service, food and drinks were excellent. There were many shops, restaurants and bars just steps away from the hotel. It is also near the cruise port for Norwegian. This was an excellent pick for our overnight stay before our cruise.
