What guests think

Bocas Paradise Hotel draws praise for its central waterfront location, clean and recently remodeled rooms, and friendly, helpful staff, but many guests warn about loud late-night noise from nearby bars and water taxis, especially on weekends.

Breakfast and the on-site restaurant receive frequent compliments, though a few note weaker service or an occasional miss. Rooms vary in size and views; some feel small or do not match expectations. While most find the property clean, isolated reports mention pests or housekeeping lapses. Expect a convenient, lively base with solid comforts and welcoming service.

The Hotel was clean and nice. The stuff was friendly and we enjoyed the ticotico Breakfast. We stayed in this hotel end of february 2024. The whole city of bocas del toro was under construction - so it was loud and dirty the whole day. We loved to come to this hotel after diving. Kind regards Rainer & Ilona

Había cucarachas en la recepción y no nos cambiaron las sábanas en 3 días aunque sí entraban para "limpiar" el baño, ya que cambiaban la bolsa de la basura. La fachada es nueva y como el restaurante, el hotel en general tiene buen aspecto, muy colorido y cuidado, pero los servicios de limpieza se pueden mejorar bastante. Además el aire acondicionado del restaurante estaba tan alto que resultaba incómodo.

I arrived two hours before check in to drop off my bag so I can walk around until check in. Luckily, my room was ready where I was able to check in at that time. Lauren (I believe that was her name) was very kind and welcoming. The room was also welcoming as the AC unit was blasting upon checkin. Walking from the airport to Bocas Paradise is a short walk (~5 minutes), but with a travel backpack and the heat and humidity, you will sweat. The room was very clean, with a colorful decor and furniture. The bathroom was very nice, with hot water (which you don't really need). The lighting could have been better. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to friends and family.

Amazing stay in every aspect but if you are staying here over the weekend just know there is a night club bar right next door and you will be partying with them wether you like it or not till at least 3 am Friday and Saturday night! Having that said they do supply the rooms with ear plugs which were a life safer for us! Would I stay here again? Absolutely 100% ! Oh and how can this hotel do any wrong with the onsite ice cream shop! We had a small vanilla cup of ice cream every night with chocolate chip cookies mixed in! 10/10 neto.eats approved! We stayed in the suite and highly recommend! The sunrises and sunsets were absolutely stunning!

Location

Central waterfront location next to tour and water taxis, restaurants, and shops makes getting around easy. The trade-off is a lively, sometimes very noisy area, and recent town road works caused mud and closures during some stays.

Only stayed for one night (Thursday), but the hotel was perfect for us! The only thing to be mindful about is the constant requests for taxis or tours (or what our plans are for tomorrow) at the nearby businesses on the street. But there’s not much the hotel can do about that, and it may be helpful for some tourists.

Nous avons réservé cet hôtel par l’intermédiaire du site Hôtel.com. 5 nuits du 9 au 14 février, chambre 204. Hôtel, il est dit rénové oui mais au combien moche. Salle de bain, le sol de la douche est très très glissant, l’éclairage et la prise ne fonctionnaient pas. Pas de machine à café, pas de réfrigérateur, se dont disposent d’autre chambre. Nous n’avons pas été convié au cocktail de bienvenue, réservé pour d’autres clients! Première nuit sans problèmes à part les clients indélicats qui parlent dans les couloirs à toute heure, de la nuit. 2eme nuit vers 23 H, nous avons pensé qu’une grande partie de l’Hotel s'écroulait. Au niveau du 3 eme étage, nous supposons une rupture de canalisation. S’en suivie des bruits importants de travaux, à plus de 2 H du matin, toujours autant de bruit causé par les mouvements importants dans les couloirs. Pas d’eau chaude ni froide. Notre formule avec petit déjeuner, on nous fourni une carte, nous choisissons, salade de fruits et yaourt, dans de minuscules récipients se trouvent une salade de fruits toute gluante , et du yaourt que nous avons recraché car immangeable. A la fin du petit déjeuner, la serveuse nous a demandé de payer, chose que nous avons refusé, cette serveuse ne nous avait pas fournie la bonne carte. Au 2eme jour nous avons quitté cet hôtel car il ne correspondait pas du tout aux prestations que nous aurions espéré. Nous avons écrit un message à Hôtel.com pour demander le remboursement des 3 nuits res

This is a great little hotel on the water front. Clean, staff are great and the breakfast was excellent. The only reason I gave it a poor rating was the Disco next door. The music got going at 10 and didn’t quit one morning till 3:30am. Even with ear plugs it felt like they were in the room. So unless you sleep during the day? It’s really too bad because the hotel itself is great.
