Exceptional Stay at Waldorf Astoria Panama
Pros:

Our family had a truly wonderful stay at the Waldorf Astoria Panama, and we would like to express our sincere appreciation to the entire team for making our visit so memorable.

From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the outstanding level of service. Every member of the staff was genuinely friendly, professional, and always willing to go the extra mile to fulfill our wishes and ensure that we felt comfortable throughout our stay.

The rooms were spacious, spotless, and very well maintained. They offered everything we needed for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. The hotel itself is elegant, welcoming, and perfectly suited for both families and business travelers.

A special highlight for our children was the pool area. They absolutely loved spending time there, and it became one of their favorite parts of the trip. The atmosphere was relaxing, and the facilities were always clean and well cared for.

We would particularly like to recognize William Smith, whose friendliness, attentiveness, and exceptional service truly stood out. He consistently anticipated our needs, greeted us with a warm smile, and made every dining experience a pleasure. His dedication to guest satisfaction is exemplary.

We would also like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Oliver Howell. Even before our arrival, he took the time to answer our questions promptly and professionally. Throughout our stay, he remained genuinely interested in our well-being and was always available to assist with recommendations, arrangements, and any requests we had. His hospitality made us feel valued and well cared for from beginning to end.

Thank you to everyone at the Waldorf Astoria Panama for such a fantastic experience. We felt truly welcomed and appreciated as guests, and we would not hesitate to return in the future.

Highly recommended for anyone looking for outstanding service, beautiful accommodations, and a memorable stay in Panama City.

Waldorf and staff always deliver.
Pros:

The Waldorf is always a great experience. The breakfast buffet is first class with excellent food and selection. The wait staff is always friendly as exemplified by Camilo, William and the hostess Dailin. They always greeted us with big smiles and took the time to remember our names. Cannot imagine we would ever stay anywhere else during our regular visits to Panama.

Great hotel in a great location.
Pros:

We had a good time at the hotel. Very easy access to all the key spots around Panama city. Rooms were a little cold but that seems to be the standard in Panama. Dailin and William Smith were a gem and made all of our dining experiences at Matiz special. They show great care and passion for their work and make guest feel very welcome.

Amazing Stay!!
Pros:

Our experience at Waldorf Astoria was FANTASTIC! From the minute we arrived, the welcoming from the ENTIRE STAFF was warm and amazing. The Jr Suite we were upgraded to was super nice and clean every single day. We ate breakfast in the restaurant every day (5 days) and from the time we were greeted by the hostess and all the wait staff were super friendly and helpful. The beautiful hostess remembered us by name every morning. The location, amenities and cleanliness were perfect. We were able to for walk to restaurants and nearby grocery or snacks. The atmosphere in the lobby was sophisticated, warm and elegant. Noise levels were never, ever an issue. I can’t wait to come back for another stay. It’s worth the value 1000 times over! Thank you!

Great Experience for business and leissure
Pros:

From the beginning my experience was superb, this was by far one of my best experiences with the brand.
Special thanks to Lille, she is the best concierge you will find in Panamá.
so knowledgeable and thorough.
I was travelling with my parents for mother's day and they made sure my mother felt special upon her arrival to the property.

the breakfast buffet is always fresh and the customer service was on point.

servers and bar tenders were super kind and hard working.

the property is located on a perfect area if you are traveling for business or leissure. Easy access and safe.
Can't wait to be back in Panamá and stay @ Waldorf again

Exceptional Hospitality & an Unforgettable Stay Thanks to William, Dailin, and Diana
Pros:

Our stay was absolutely incredible from start to finish! The hotel was beautiful, spotless, comfortable, and in the perfect location. Every detail made the experience feel relaxing and luxurious.

What truly made this stay exceptional, though, was the outstanding service from William, Dailin, and Diana. They all went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed and taken care of throughout our visit. William was professional, friendly, and always willing to help with anything we needed. Dailin’s kindness and attention to detail made such a lasting impression, and Diana was equally amazing with her warm hospitality and genuine care for guests.

It’s rare to find a hotel where the staff makes you feel this valued and appreciated. Because of William, Dailin, and Diana, we will absolutely be returning and recommending this hotel to friends and family. Thank you all for making our trip so memorable!

Friendly staff and nice rooms
Pros:

Friendly staff and nice rooms. The breakfast is very good, especially the waffles and the Omelettes. The host Dailin is very nice too. Can also recommend room service. The valets are also nice and the valet parking is reasonably priced

Only small downside: the pool felt a bit dirty and the water is not clear

Best Anniversary Stay EVERRRR!!!
Pros:

Omgggg the best experience EVER! From the front desk to the bar which by the way William Smith was AWESOME! So happens we have the same last name too but everything was great! We even got a complimentary bottle of champagne which was SOO nice! And the spa ladies who did our massage were very respectful and my husband said he couldn’t move after (or didn’t want to) lol. Thank you SO much Waldorf Astoria for everything! We will be back! 🫶🏾
