Nice hotel in the business district. Staff wasn’t exactly warm and welcoming. Very forced communication and didn’t volunteer information on amenities or facilities. Concierge lady was helpful offering options for coffeeshops close by. Breakfast wasn’t mediocre and much of the same thing every day. Had dinner once, which consisted of a rich seafood stew. An ok hotel, but I won’t return.

★★★☆☆ Good Stay with Minor Maintenance Issues Our stay at El Executive Hotel was overall a pleasant experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and provided excellent service, always quick to assist when needed. The rooms were clean and met our expectations, and the location was perfect—easily accessible to everything we wanted to do. The hotel amenities, including the pool, gym, and breakfast, were great additions to our stay. However, the property could use some maintenance, as we experienced a clogged shower drain and a leaky AC. Despite these minor issues, it was still a great spot, and we enjoyed our time here. Would recommend!

A relaxing and enjoyable stay in Panama City.

Very pleasant stay. Hotel is in very good condition. The room allocated was spacious, very clean and very comfortable. The hotel has a nice pool and well equipped gym area. The breakfast provided by the hotel was fine. The hotel is a bit removed from the tourist sites within Panama City however taxis / Ubers are incredibly cheap and within $3/4 a journey. All the staff I encountered were very friendly, helpful and professional. I would definitely recommend the hotel for a stay in Panama City

As a female traveling alone this was an ideal place for me..as the hotel and its surroundings was quiet and safe.The staff was extremely nice and attentive, the room was just gorgeous and the food was awesome! I had the grilled pork chops.Portions was very large. If i have to come Panama again i would pick The Executive Hotel. It really lived up to its name. Thank Expedia for this recommendation as it was a win!.
