Across recent feedback for AC Hotel by Marriott Panama City, travelers consistently praise the friendly staff, central location, and rooftop pool views, while noting mixed upkeep, inconsistent breakfast variety, and a few neighborhood safety concerns after dark.

Rooms are often comfortable and clean, but recurring comments mention very cold, hard-to-adjust air conditioning, occasional hot-water issues, thin walls, and signs of wear.

We stayed at the hotel for 8 nights and had a good time. The staff was friendly and the hotel was nice, but a bit worn down. The rooftop was a little disappointing, with paint pealing off, a bar that was open once in a while and water that wasn't all clear.

I didn’t like that everything I went to get in the jacuzzi the water didn’t get hot only the bubbles came on, I asked a worker on the property and they told that the heated jacuzzi stopped at the certain time…. Ok, no problem…. I next time I went a little earlier, still no heat…. I tried calling the front desk, no one answered…. An employee was walking by the pool and I asked them about the heat and they texted someone and said, that someone will come up, no one came so I went back to the room…. This was my main and only problem, everything else was good….

I chose this hotel since I had a long layover in Panama City and I was arriving at night, (the area has a lot of nightlife and I needed open places to eat late), When I go to sleep late at night I realize that the bed has bedbugs and women's hair between the sheets and between the sheet and the mattress. The cleaning was not very good, and the bathroom had a water leak to the outside when you showered, The attention good.

The room was spotless and beautifully designed, and the breakfast was fresh and delicious every morning. The overall atmosphere was relaxing and modern — I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend staying here!

The staff at the AC Hotel Panama City were excellent—very kind and professional. Unfortunately, the hotel itself didn’t meet Marriott standards. The breakfast was average, and the area outside didn’t feel very safe. We even found a roach in the bathroom, which was unacceptable. The staff gave a $60 credit, but that was nothing for an issue like that. They also said they couldn’t help further because we booked through Expedia, which makes me think using Expedia isn’t the best option if you can’t get proper refunds. The gym was very limited, not like what’s shown online. Great staff, but I wouldn’t stay here again.

Un hotel AC Marriot te hace pensar que será un lugar con instalaciones en buen estado. El Lobby está muy bien, un lindo bar, staff MUY ATENTO y amaihabme y también bien restaurante pero las habitaciones realmente en un estado mal. Las Alfombras sucias -en mi pasillo al menos- y mi habitación en muy malas condiciones de mantenimiento. Realmente una pena pues me he hospedado en otros AC en latam y USA teniendo unas muy buenas experiencias pero el AC de Panamá definitivamente no.

I informed the hotel reception that the air conditioning was not working I was told that they would sent someone to come look at it. No one came since 9am. The next day I called from my room and was told the same thing. I logged in the app and messaged the same thing. Finally someone came, he did something and said I’m going to come back in 10mins to see if anything changed. 30mins later I messaged on the app saying the guy never came back and the a.c never even turned on. I asked for another room and they said that I had to wait until 12pm for another available room and this was at 830-9am. I was sweating so much in that room I had to call again for another room. Still nothing available. I messaged again and 30 mins later at 1120am they said come down stairs and get the key to another room. I felt that I had to keep bothering the reception just to get the ac fixed or another room.

While the hotel itself meets expectations, I was very disappointed by the presence of individuals openly offering prostitution just outside the property.

I urge hotel management to address this issue promptly to ensure a more secure and welcoming environment for all guests.

Hotel is clean and a typical AC Marriot standard. Breakfast buffet included eggs made to order and if you wanted cappuccinos, you had to pay extra. The area around the hotel is not that clean and at the hotel street corner there is a bar where young women stand on the street selling their services as escorts.

Nice hotel, but seemed understaffed and under resourced. Check in went well and we were able to leave our luggage until our room was ready. But the lounge/bar experience was lacking. I ordered a cocktail off the menu only to be told that they didn’t have Prosecco to make it. I then ordered a dish from their menu and was once again told it wasn’t available. It alll got figured out and they were nice about it. Also a bit of a wait at breakfast as only one person seemed to be working with customers and bills. Rooftop pool is cute and really made for selfies and relaxing not swimming laps. Towels are available at pool. Roof bar was not open when we were there and hours weren’t published so don’t know when it is open. But great view! Room was comfy but had see through glass doors to bathroom which I’m not a fan of.
