En el dÃa de ayer, 31 de Marzo, tuve oportunidad de visitar la CafeterÃa del Hotel, en compañÃa de una pareja de amigos Canadienses.
La experiencia fue realmente decepcionante, por decirlo finamente.
Primero, en un Hotel de su categorÃa, es inconcebible que en uno de sus restaurantes, no haya personal que hable ...

Its great.In a good area with neat shops resturants, and cantinas. Some english is spoken in the hotel,which to me is a clean well managed establishment,just be a little patient becuse it is panama time,but Carusos is to slow even for the locals,look for the subtle places to find the good people, food and prices. Coffee and fruit at Becky's is excelent plenty of internet cafes in the area for $.50/hour

Hotel Gran Nacional has been my "home" on several occasions. I have stayed there many times and some of my visits were for over three weeks at one time.
Absolutely delightful. Management will go out of their way to please your every need.
The staff are primarily Spanish speaking, however with a little effort on your part to try to ...

Other reviewers had no clue.

I was a little apprehensive after reading these reviews, but obviously, most of the travelers had no idea where they were. If you want a 5 star American hotel, stay in America. For being in a very little known part of Panama, the Gran Hotel Nacional is by far THE greatest hotel located in the David, Chiriqui area. Especially for the price. Do some ...

Stop fooling people!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/20/07
Ok! SO whoever wrote that this place is a gem, obviously has very low standards. I followed his/her advice and let me tell you. A mediocre pool and location doesn't do it for me. No shampoos, conditioners, they almost didn't have soap. Rude staff and yes! no iron. Come on this is the 21st Century. Cheap people is what they are. Some locals advice me to better hotels at better prices.

never go here!

The sevice in the restaurants, bar and reception and bellboys is the worst we have ever encountered. It seemed that all the employees hated their work and did everything to make the customers aware of that. Also not one of the employees spoke any other language then Spanish. Don't go here you will feel most unwelcome and be glad to leave! We had no time to explore other hotels in David, so we can not give an advice for a good alternative!
This is a superb hotel with excellent accomodations as well as great restaurants. It has a very nice charming swimming pool area. The staff is efficient and extremely polite. You just can´t ask for more at any price.
I have stayed there on many occasions and I have fallen in love with the hotel. The food is fantastic, the service was great, and the rooms were clean. The price is an incredible value and the scenary is beautiful. It's a wonderful place all year round. The pool area is lovely either for a swim or just to stay around. We happened to meet the ...

Rude RUde Rude. The General Manager cursed at us and yelled in front of everyone at the lobby area. They don't offer shampoo, condi.. nasty bathrooms and no iron. You can pay half the money in other hotels in town. the average price is 26 a night instead of 90 bucks at this mediocre place

Doesn't Compare to El Panama

Service is BAD!!! The office personal need more training in HOSPITALITY. Casino is not at the Hotel anymore, this was the only place worth visiting. They treat you like family.
