Wonderful
Everything was perfect.The location, the room. The food at the restaurant was out of the world, the rooftop bar was very good. But above all, it was the staff. One of the best in the world. Every morning we had breakfast at the bar in the lobby, such a pleasure. We just felt at home.

Our room was pretty dark even with all the lights turned on. The door to the balcony could not be locked, although the hotel assured us that it was safe because it was in the vicinity of the President's residence.

if Art therapy was a hotel.
As an artist myself I try to seek out more interesting stays. Art themed hotels. I'm always trying to find something special. looking for more of an experience over comfort. This place was inspiring and colorful. the location can't be beat. and Panama as a whole is just beautiful. But staying here made it all even better.

The facility was very nice and clean. Room was spacious. The things I didn’t like were not the fault of the hotel. Be warned that the upstairs bar is LOUD until very late and then construction in the area is also very loud and starts very early in the morning. There’s also a ton of cabs/ubers honking outside constantly. The hotel does provide earplugs which help. We didn’t eat at the restaurant in the hotel but it’s nice that there is a restaurant on site. The view from the rooftop bar is absolutely stunning, especially at night.

I liked that the rooms were spacious and the interior design was super unique with artistic details throughout the hotel. Location was good with restaurants and attractions within walking distance. Downside was that our room was below the roof top nightclub which raged until 4am and was very loud. Also we asked for car service to the airport and was told a driver would arrive in 15min. After waiting almost an hour we had to flag down a passing taxi to make our flight which we almost missed due to the delay.

My wife and I have been staying at TANTALO since 2017 and we have really enjoyed our time there. Some of the amazing things about TANTALO is the fact that the property is all inclusive with a hotel, restaurant and amazing roof top bar experience. My wife enjoy that for the last 7 years, many of the TANTALO staff are still working their. We met Mr. Anyelo who was our waiter from 2017 to 2024 is now considered both a brother to my wife and I. I want to also give a special thanks to additional current and past TANTALO staff. Mr. Lorenzo Robles (GM) was an amazing host to my wife and I. David the awesome Security Guard at nights has always treated my wife and I with VIP treatment. Angie has always been an amazing hostess. Rafael the former TANTALO Rooftop Bar has become a great friend and has always treated my wife and I like VIP Royalty when visiting the rooftop experience. Finally the front desk staff has always made checking in smooth and enjoyable. I am looking forward to our next visit in July or August and know that anyone reading this will have an equally enjoyable TANTALO experience. P.S It's a must to try the Passion Fruit Mohito after checking in a the delicious Watermelon juice after a long day of sightseeing. It's a great hydration drink.

The staff were the highlight - they were so nice and helpful. The art was beautiful. The rooms were clean. The food was good. Unfortunately Saturday night the bar was pumping loud music and the taxis were beeping their horns until 5am. The earplugs they provided helped, but sleep was definitely interrupted.
