"Overnite stay"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 25, 2013
The hotel room was a small, but well kept room. The lay out of the hotel is more of a motel in the US. The staff was very friendly and assisted with getting the taxi necessary for the airport. The restaurant was also very nice. The bed was a little short for my height but comfortable. Overall a nice place, but a little high in price for the 1 one stay.

"close to airport"
close to airport, good breakfast and free shuttle to airportGenuine Expedia guest review
"Good for airport access"
Great for ease to/from airport with free shuttle. ATM on site. Casino for those who gamble. Free welcome cocktail. Restaurant service was good, but dinner was skimpy and mediocre.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Good stay for a layover."
We used the hotel as a family for a layover in Panama. It was clean and comfortable. However, we had this incredibly weird incident that we were asked to pay for our room service in cash! The reason is that for some strange reason they could not charge it to the room or credit card. At midnight, we were not happy with this bureaucratic mess. Otherwise, […] hotel stay was a pleasant one. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Great Hotel to over night in a connection flight."
I like the bottle of could water at the Airport pick up. The check in was fast at that time of the night.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great once the safety issues are fixed."
There was no shuttle so we had to pay for 15 persons with luggage to get to the hotel. The receptionist was friendly and efficiency with our check in package ready in less than 2 minutes. The automatic door to the breakfast area however slammed on myself and a few other persons in my group causing bodily harm. This needs to be checked out. This is a […] safety issue. The shuttle was able to carry us back to the airport in the morning. The breakfast was balanced. Good job. the walk to the room was LOOONGGGG. The plug in one of the rooms was not working. The hotel was extremely busy between midnight and three am. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"More than expected"
This is a good place to stay if you're forced to spend the night near the airport due to waiting for a flight the next day. At first, from the outside, you see a two story motel and think "Oh, no". But they've really transformed this place into a 4-star accommodation with a restaurant and two bars, including one swim-up bar, and it has the feel of a […] resort. Another satisfying thing -- they underpromise and overdeliver. I wasn't supposed to get a free breakfast, but I did, along with a free evening cocktail. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great hotel resort"
Nice hotel resort, good service, nice pool bar, friendly staff, room was great with a rainy shower 42 inch screen (convinient during European championship final), no complains. Good value for money.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Language Barrier"
I recently stayed at the Riande before leaving Panama. When I first checked in, I had good service at the front desk and was impressed with the look of the hotel. When directed to my room, it was extremely hot, and when I tried to talk to the hotel staff, they did not seem to understand my complaint. The small AC unit in the room took almost all night […] to cool the room down, resulting in a rough night's sleep that was further exasperated by a hotel alarm clock in the room that went off at 4am. On top of these issues, I also attempted to order Room Service which was another exercise in folly due to the language barrier. All in all, the hotel is nicely located next to the airport, and looks great - but I recommend being fluent in Spanish if you plan to stay there. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good for the price"
Nice hotel. Very near to Internatioanal Airport, The personnel is very attentive y cooperativeGenuine Expedia guest review
"clean, quiet, pleasantly decorated hotel."
We stayed one night, en route from the caribbean coast to Canada. We selected the hotel for its proximity to the international airport, and were concerned that it might be noisy but it was quite quiet. The deisgn of the lobby, pool area and public spaces and rooms is modern, clean, "zen". The reception staff were efficient and spoke some english, so […] I did not need to butcher the spanish language again. Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable, although a bit sterile - one would not call it cozy. The bathroom was beautifully decorated and appointed. Two problems with the room: 1) very poor light for reading. 2) no guide to which of the hundreds of TV stations one can actually receive. There was a fuss at checkout with our credit card so we paid cash for the balance owing. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Great"
The best location arriving to or leaving Panama.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Very nice, really good updates and modernizations, very very comfy beds. We asked to be moved due to outside bar music and they accommodated us with a very quiet room. If you are a light sleeper ask for a room without a pool/pool bar view as the music is pretty loud. Very nice staff, excellent location for AM flight out of Panama City with complimentary […] shuttle and no airport noise either. A decent, not great, complimentary breakfast. They are putting in a new spa that looks like it will be world-class. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Passing through"
Passing through Panama City on the way to the cruise ship on Colon we only needed a clean place to stay. We picked this hotel because the price was comparable to other equally rated hotels AND they offered free shuttle service. Even late at night the shuttle was quick and efficient. The hotel itself was lovely on the outside even at night. We did need […] to change rooms as the first had been recently painted and was still overpowering. Upon morning the beautiful resort was truly visible. Lovely plants, and decorations, inside and out. The pool was beautiful. Our room was CLEAN and cool and had nice sheets. Breakfast buffet was hot and with many options. It was above continental. The negatives - very little English spoken. Be prepared to use your bilingual skills. Although functioning the hot tub was NOT not. And the price. The amount charged for a 'deluxe king' (and only two doubles given on both rooms we had) was more than I thought The resort worthy, particularly for 12 hours. Final - we would have really enjoyed staying several days, but even so would not have liked the price. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Airport hotel with comfortable beds"
hotel was exactly what we needed as it was close to the airport and we were only in town for 11 hours. The beds were great and the breakfast buffet perfect before we got on the planeGenuine Expedia guest review
"Airport convenience"
Clean, pleasant experience. Convenient to airport with a free shuttle. Food was so so.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Riande Aeropuerto Hotel & Resort"
The shuttle was there on time as well as left for the airport on time. This hotel is very conviently located next to the airport! 7 min drive the most and thats with traffic. The rooms are very nice and the showers are hot. The aircondition however is not central heating and air but it is still gets the job done. I reccommend this hotel for any tra […] velers!

"Perfect location for the airport stopover"
Stayed overnight on stop-over to Caribbean. I chose the hotel because of its proximity to the airport (two minutes on shuttle, free bottle of water on the bus too, which was welcome). But having stayed there once, I now wish I'd had a chance to stay longer!! Lovely pool area, good bar, excellent food, very comfortable room. Excellent customer service […] too.

"Layover in Panama for 2012 Trinidad Carnival"
Before deciding to book this location, I've read a lot of negative reviews about this hotel. With the hotel being around the corner from the airport and the airport recommending this hotel, how could I go wrong! The hotel was perfect! Two minutes from the airport and free shuttle, how can you complain. It was 8 women in my group. Lot of opinions and […] personalities. Everyone was happy with the accomondations. You receive free breakfast every morning. The staff provided great customer service. The decor to the outside scenery was beautiful! The food was great. However, there was a language barrier, which caused delays with our food. Either way, it was great learning a little spanish, as we taught a little english. The hotel provides shuttle service to downtown Panama for $23 dollars round trip. We went to the Panama Canal, old and new Panama. An excellent tour. I completely recommend this hotel!! Again was there February 16th and 23rd of 2012. Both days, the hotel was not crowded. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Lovely Hotel"
The hotel has recently finished a major upgrade. The accomidations are very attractive, the food good, and the pool great. There has been a considerable upgrading of staff training, and everyone is accomidating and helpful. Providing you don't mind the price, this is the preferred place to stay just before or after an international airline flight.Genuine Expedia guest review
"pleasant experience"
Very pleasant experience of one night stay --late flight incoming. Was upgraded to pool view room, service excellent, good breakfast. Still working on pool, but half available.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Very convenient"
The hotel is very close to the airport and the fact that a shuttle is provided makes it quite convenient for an someone just overnighting in Panama City. I was pleasantly surprised at the improvement that has taken place over the last year. I would certainly stay again and would recommend it for an overnighter.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Remodeled perfectly"
The hotel has recently been remodeled, and has a great chef. I also lucked out that the grand opening was going on when I stayed. But it is has recently been remodeled to perfection inside and out. staff is tremendously courteous and attentive. literally 5 minutes from the airport, perfect if yo have an early flightGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great staff"
This hotel was perfect for arriving and departing. The staff was alert and even offered us discounts that we could not book on-line. I would advise calling hotel direct to book your room to take advantage of senior and corporate rates. We had a very relaxing afternoon at the pool the day before our flight. We had thought about staying at the Marriott […] Aeropuerto, but after checking it out, there was no question that the best would be the Riande. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Can recommend"
Perfectly situated for travellers who want to be close to the airport. The hotel offers a shuttle service to the Airport and back as well as to the nearest mall, at no extra cost. The internet service is excellentGenuine Expedia guest review
"Quick lay over"
We needed a place close to the airport for an early departure time. Room was fine - except the first key didn't work but the bell hop took care of it. The restaurant was nice but expensive and service was lacking. We ordered two appetizers and received only one. The meal for suppose to be for two but really only feed one of us. We were ignored after […] the food was served - water glasses remained empty. Breakfast was good. Overall of the 7 hotels we used in a two week period this was one of the top two.

"Super posh & convenient to airport"
Airport shuttle every thirty minutes (hour and half hour) was super helpful with our early flight. Free wi-fi (spotty coverage at times) and a good business center. Pool is lovely and poolside snacks were reasonably priced. Awesome bed on a level with Westin's Heavenly Bed.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Disappointing"
The ambience of the hotel was superb. However, the restaurant was very very disappointing. Service was extremely slow although there were very few people there. The beds were quite hard and uncomfortable.Genuine Expedia guest review
"OK"
This is a good hotel if you are just connecting and have an overnight, otherwise it is definitely not a happening spot.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Much prefer this airport hotel to the usual highrises."
The whole hotel has been recently renovated. It's very attractive. Seems like they also sent the staff to a service course because they've kicked the quality of service up a notch. With the lovely pool, it's a great place to spend your first or last night in Panama very close to the airport.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great Hotel for early departure from airport......"
This hotel was very very nice. Had everything you would want . Best location to leave on early flights and a great hotel for food, drink and pool. Felt like you were at a resort., just 5 min to airport. Great shuttle service to and from hotel. Thanks for a nice experience. And good night sleep.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Excellent hotel near aiport"
Stayed at the Riande for one night before flying out of Toucmen and it was a wonderful experience. Reception staff were excellent and friendly, spoke fluent English, was upgraded without asking to a king bed and pool view room (no. 259). Hotel has recently been upgraded and is definately at the top end of the 3 stars. Amazing shower which was much appreciated […] after 7 days on a boat with limited water. Firm bed with modern funky decor. Free bus to airport (5mins) which left spot on schedule. Unfortunately missed breakfast (from 6:30am) due to early flight but dinner was good. Would highly recommend for a hassle free journey to the airport as traffic in Panama city can be very heavy at rush hours (1 hour+ from Allbrook to Toucmen). Big thanks to everyone at the Riande for a great stay. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Reasonable airport hotel"
I have stayed at this hotel numerous times as a stopover on long international trips from the northeast US to Brazil. The hotel is improving rapidly. Although it is still undergoing a major renovation as of late October 2011, it looks like the work is going fairly well. It looks like the hotel will have accomplished a major upgrade by the end of 2012. The […] staff at the front desk are getting better each trip. The support staff can seem a little sullen at first, but they warm up if you treat them with respect. The restaurant is decent, and it looks like they are aiming for a major upgrade there. This isn't the height of hotel service, but for what it is, the product is pretty good and getting better each time. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
