The Inn at Palo Alto was an amazing stay for my family. The grounds are maintained with attention to detail. The rooms were clean and spacious. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. There was an evening we were in the city trying to hail a taxi after dinner. We could not find one that was available. So, we asked a nearby restaurant for help. It just happened that the owner of our Inn was sitting at the table in front. He quickly offered to drive us back to the Inn,

There really wasn't anything to complain about!

So many great things about the Inn from the gorgeous tropical gardens, hummingbirds and butterflies, to the on point helpful manager and staff. We loved the location with such beautiful views and five minute drive to town. Breakfast was standard but good with a wide variety of breakfast styles. Can't wait to take my husband back with me next time!

What a gorgeous, well maintained property in a beautiful setting. The attention to details, like the fire pit, and small walking paths make this property a gem. We loved watching the hummingbirds at the feeder by our room. The rooms were in good condition and had all the necessary items for one’s stay. The breakfast in the morning was fantastic and we also enjoyed the cozy bar at night. We’ll be back for sure!

Definitely location is not handy since a taxi is needed any time 4 to 5 usd and it is a bit uphill. They say you can walk 30 minutes. However, there were some aggresive dogs on the street not far from the main bridge that believe me, you do not want to face them. This is an issue I have seen in other parts with dogs left outside by local owners unattended. Otherwise I could have walk on the way down. If you have your own transport, that would not be an issue (although I saw the dogs running after.passing by taxis). My room was facin the interior garden, so, I had to close all curtains to have some privacy.

Beautiful garden with hummingbirds and flowers next to a small river and some decent mountain views. The jacuzzi is the heart of the Hotel. The swimming pool is not heated. Decent rooms with big tv with apps (i.e youtube) and good beds. The breakfast in the morning facing the river is lovely and varied. I used the gym that is really convenient if you want to work out during your stay, plus with views. They helped me organise transport to Bocas del Toro, 8 am just after breakfast, for 30 usd, cheaper than in the internet.

A great place to relax after a day on the trail. The view is beautiful, and we loved the peaceful garden – especially the hummingbird feeders, such a lovely detail! The staff were super friendly, and the breakfast was delicious. We’re absolutely recommend it to anyone.

Where do I even start. We had read all the promising reviews before we came here. They have nice (free) parking spaces in front of the hotel. The gate opens up to the most beautiful garden with so much plants, flowers and (humming)birds. All the staff are super friendly and always smiling. The spacious room was spot clean and smelled so nice every time we entered the room. Every morning there was a small, but delicious and very fresh breakfast buffet. After our hikes we would relax in the hot tub, which overlooks the river. We would definitely recommend this hotel and are a little sad to leave this place…

We had no issues during our stay.

The setting is great with wonderful gardens and set just outside of the main town, so quiet. The staf were fantastic and helped with booking activities and gave great advice on resturants. Marcelo's advice to try George's House Resturant was great, an experience that we really enjoyed. Breakfast was excellent and a good start to the day.

A bit far from the center

Amazing hotel, cannot recommend it enough. The hotel is surrounded by a beautiful garden, while overlooking the river and surrounding mountains. The rooms were quite big. Beds were very comfortable. The personal was amazing and very acoomodating. The breakfast has quite a few options and tastes amazing

Unfortunately, (and out of the hotel's control), we did have an incident with the people next to us where a fight broke out in the middle of the night but the staff was accomodating and moved us to a different room in the morning. I would also say, while the views are great, just keep in mind that you are not walking distance to anything so you would have to taxi (there are no ubers) to and from the hotel into the downtown area for other meals outside of breakfast.

The BREAKFAST IS TRULY DELICIOUS!!! Even one of the morning, we did the volcano sunrise tour and got back around 10:30am (post breakfast hours) but the staff was SO KIND and they knew we would be late so they had breakfast waiting for us still. The place was overall so cute - highly recommend upgrading to mountain view, the views were WOW.

We had a fabulous view that included Volcan Baru. The breakfast was outstanding--much more than a typical continental breakfast. The staff was friendly and attentive. When we return to Boquete...we will stay at Palo Alto Garden Inn..!

We liked everything

The setting is wonderful-10 minutes drive from town in the hills, surrounded by coffee plantations and a view of the volcano. The gardens are a delight and attract humming birds, butterflies and other birds. Lovely breakfast-fresh fruit, eggs to order. We got taxis to town as we didn't have a car, but found tours were happy to pick us up from the hotel. The staff really went the extra mile in setting us up with a local restaurant when we arrived late, offering a lift if they were going into town and when my husband was ill, sorting us out with a take away meal to be delivered. Very highly recommended!

The spatial layout of the family rooms could be more optimal.

It was a successful stay, from check-in to the rooms with their great views and the beautiful garden to the pleasant breakfast, everything was great. A huge plus: a small complaint was resolved immediately!

The Inn is family run and owned and staff is exceptional. Marcelo went above and beyond and even set up an early morning taxi on day I was leaving. The grounds are gorgeous and breakfast delicious. I couldn’t have dreamed of a more perfect place to stay.
