"Located in Casco Viejo, Tantalo Hotel is a great home base for exploring Panama City. Rooms here are entirely unique, each one featuring work by a different local artist as well as colorful, modern décor and spacious rain showers. When hunger strikes, head to the solid on-site restaurant (get the ceviche), or the stylish rooftop bar, where you can sip watermelon margaritas while enjoy sweeping views across the bay. At night, it’s the place to be, with local partygoers flooding in as soon as the sun goes down."

"Tántalo’s Coco Heaven is a creamy, coconut-and-rum drink perfect for a hot day, featuring watermelon instead of pineapple. Their Tequila Hot Mojito offers a spicy twist on the Cuban classic, combining the sweetness of passionfruit and spiciness of Tabasco." - Michaela Trimble

Great spot for food especially with a big group! There were a few large groups when I arrived for late night tapas alone and drinks, it was absolutely delicious and a great vibe. The staff was super friendly, if you don't have service for the QR code you can still order with staff. Music was also good for the space, not too loud or too quiet and it was great choices of music too!

The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, especially Nashda. The location can't be beat for staying in the old town and the nighttime view from their rooftop bar is fantastic. Although the bar is noisy, it really didn't bother me and I'm usually a light sleeper and they provided earplugs just in case. Added touches were interesting and colorful murals plus a funky elevator that was fun. Another huge bonus was the restaurant on property which was very good and reasonably priced.

I only ate at the restaurant. I didn’t feel cool enough to be here! Cool vibe and great cocktails. Loved the passion mojito. Food was great. The only thing I wouldn’t get again is that potato dish. It was just cubed potatos with a bit of cheese on top - barely any flavor. Brussels sprouts were very good.

Went to rooftop bar for drinks and appetizers. Good view. Food was good but pricy . Drinks were good. They had music and then dancers came. They were inviting people to dance and we thought it might be for special occasion for the group but then we realized everyone was invited to dance. Dancers were very friendly and were teaching steps to different songs. We had really good time.

We booked a room for 4 nights mid December 2024. The room was very dark with very poor lighting. Some lights were broken. TV was not working and the sink was clogged. Also, room smelled really musty. It was a true nightmare. It took 24 hours to fix the sink. The rest of the issues there was nothing to be done. Additionally, there is so much noise from the rooftop bar that they give your ear plugs!! This was so bad that we asked to leave after two nights. To their credit, they refunded the two nights for us. The restaurant food was average at best. It is located literally in the hotel lobby. Service was good. I would not recommend this place at all as a hotel. Even if it is free.

went here while on vacation and we had quite a time with our waiter.... no one really speaks English which isn't the issue due to it being a Spanish speaking country. But as far as keeping up with the orders and billing I think we spent more time on correcting that than we did sitting down to eat it was probably 8 of us. The food was good I ordered the mac n cheese with shrimp which is a huge serving you can easily serve two people with it. It was a very basic mac n cheese I wouldn't recommend it. I also ordered the duck which I wouldn't recommend that either..... come to think of it the only good food came from others plate. the atmosphere is everything!! The rooftop was awesome with a great view and great bar!

We have loved the rooftop, loved the dinner and now we love the breakfast! Lap was the best server and the food was out of this world. We were shocked by the reasonable prices for the high quality of food and beverages. The place is beautiful and wild. We appreciate the spirit and vibe of Tantalo and will keep coming back for more!

I went with my friends to the rooftop. It was good, nice views and the service was fine. The drinks were great, the dj they have that night needed a little work with the transitions, but other than that, it was ok. We had fun
