Great up and coming Bocagrande hotel.
Kristal Tower is a great hotel. Very customer service focused and friendly staff. Our Spanish is not the strongest, but they were able to communicate in English with us. The rooms are nice and comfortable. The beds were really relaxing after long days of walking around town or hanging out at the beach. Fresh breakfast served every morning from a very attentive wait staff. Great rooftop pool with views of the rest of neighborhood. The area is touristy with a number of restaurants and bars nearby. The beach is less than a five-minute walk away. The airport and old city were just a quick ride away. Wi-Fi was strong and simple to connect. Bathrooms were great!
