Reviews for Tropical Suites Hotel
Review 1:Room on first floor was basically on the street.
Review 2:The room was spacious and clean. Very comfortable and in the middle of everything. Great value if your a couple or small family.
Review 3:Great location, friendly staff, and probably the best place in town for little difference in price (at least when we were there). Room and bathroom were very large, and the kitchen adequately equipped to prepare a basic meal. No complaints. Room tip: town view is fine and not as unbearably hot as water view on sunny days.
Review 4:The sofa bed was not comfortable
Review 5:Amazing location right on the coast yet in the middle of town amongst all the bars, restaurants and shops. Nice and quiet at night. The staff were great and will arrange trips for you at a good rate and they are all super friendly. The rooms are big, the bed very comfortable and everything is very clean. They have a speedy and cheap laundry service too which is great. Breakfast is included but you get to choose from 3 lovely restaurants to have it each day which was a nice surprise. You can also have it delivered to your room each morning for next to nothing. Highly recommended.
Review 6:The very strong smell of mold. It is not their fault as the hotel is on top of the sea and so humidity is very high. The kitchen needs more and better items for self catering. People do not like to cook on vacations, but some need to do it because of diet restrictions such as diabets. For this reason, I only stay in hotels with kitchens. So I suggest the owners include some items to provide more comfort inside the room: more kitchen items such as a microwave oven, inox pans and a colander. An air conditioner that can help with the mold by extracting water (humidity) from the room. A portable foldable hanger to place it in the balcony and dry your smming suits and towels. A telephone in the room. Internal locks for the doors (main door and balcony) Black outs in the curtains to be able to sleep until late. A place to wash and dry your feet before entering the room. People come from the beaches full of sand on their feet. Foldable benches to place your luggage.
Review 7:The room (which includes a kitchen), toilet and balcony are very clean and well decorated. The water taxis pick you up in the hotel. There are only three floors, but there is an elevator.
Review 8:On the pricey side, but worth every penny for what you actually get!
Review 9:Booked a room with an Ocean View on the ground floor....stunning view, beautiful and comfortable bedroom with private balcony overlooking the sea and neighbouring waterfront properties. Front desk staff are efficient, friendly and professional...they will help you with anything if you ask. Air con was a life-saver...not available in many hotels in Boccas Town. Breakfast was off site at a choice of 4 local restaurants...the best choice by far was a new French restaurant next door (turn left out of the hotel). It's called MK. The owner, Ben and his daughter are so friendly and food is amazing....3 course breakfast with hot chocolate, tea or coffee...the French crepes were to die for. This is the perfect hotel....steps away from where the water taxi drops you off from Almirante, in the heart of the action, on he waterfront, but remarkably quiet too.....highly recommended.
Review 10:Overall cleanliness was good but the floor might be cleaned better. If you walk barefoot with washed feet, your foot soles turn black.
Review 11:Breakfast (choice between 3 restaurants), balcony, spacious and comfortable room. Probably one of the best hotels at Isla Colon.
Review 12:Shower could have been better
Review 13:Good and spacious room, good location, friendly and helpful staff that speaks good English, free towel service to use at outside beaches
Review 14:Then only thing missing was a restaurant for breakfast. You could order it as part of the room but you could not just go downstairs.
Review 15:Perfect place to stay in town. Views from the rooms facing the water were lovely. Water taxi stand was just two doors down or they would call one for you.
Review 16:no breakfast (if you book via booking?)
Review 17:everything was great - very clean hotel/rooms, convenient location to restaurants/boats, friendly and helpful staff
Review 18:No resturaunt, and the bar was never open. Some staff was excellent, some staff seemed to not want to help.
Review 19:Location, very clean rooms, the cleaning staff really puts a lot of work in cleaning and maintenance of the rooms. View was excellent (ocean view with balcony), and perfect location for restaurants. Boat taxi's pick you up right in the back.
Review 20:Staff gave us inadequate information regarding checkout stressing our way out of the hotel and leaving us with a bad feeling of the service. Didn't like also that no breakfast was included even though we had booked the most expensive room of the hotel. Besides that the stay was great.
Review 21:The water pressure in the shower wasn't ideal, but facilities were all in good working order.
Review 22:The staff were extremely friendly, and the rooms were always in great shape.
Review 23:It is a nice hotel, probably the nicest in the area and in a good location. Had it not been for the cockroaches, I would have given it a 10 or at least close to it.
Review 24:Our room was infested with cockroaches. We counted about 8 in less than 5 minutes. Most were running around under our bed. It took away a lot of the comfort feeling I had prior to seeing them. During checkout I had mentioned it to the receptionist and she said that they could not do anything because the person in charge was not present.
Review 25:The sliding glass doors on the patio did not lock securely, neighboring occupants could climb over the rail to enter our unit.
Review 26:Location, view & King size bed and don't forget the air conditioning, definitely a bonus! Watching the sunrise from our suite, Exceptional!
Review 27:No pool or lounge area to lay out and relax. It's right in the middle of town, good for a night or two if you want to party. Not a great location for relaxation and quiet.
Review 28:Clean, comfortable room to sleep in and have a drink on the balcony.
Review 29:Staff could not resolve daily A/C issue we had. It was warm not cool in the room. An inconvenience, but not worth moving hotels for or getting upset.
Review 30:Great downtown location, friendly staff
Review 31:Great staff. Always clean... floors are moped three times a day. Great view. It is in the center of the shoreline so when your coming off a water taxi from any island you see it. We stayed on the city side which was great to people watch and the ocean side. Either side is great!
Review 32:Hotel does not offer breakfast because they do not have a restaurant However it's not a deal breaker. All rooms have a full kitchen. Local supermarket across street also many good restaurants within a block or two.
Review 33:Location. ..terraces overlooked street or water view. Good size rooms. No elevator but staff helpful with carrying luggage.
Review 34:Elevator doesn't work. I was on third floor. Didn't bother me but don't choose hotel if you have trouble with stairs.
Review 35:Great staff, very comfortable room--probably the best in Bocas Town
Review 36:The bed is very soft and uncomfortable, the elevator did not wrk all the time, the staff is very non accurate and make many mistakes and false promisses
Review 37:location, breakfest at a restaurat near and cleaness
Review 38:Visible old stains on sheets. I agree with some of the previous reviews in that the staff left alot to be desired. Compared to everyone else we encountered on the island, they were quite surly. I never looked forward to walking back into the hotel or asking anyone a question. They could also invest in screens. Mosquitoes were always in the room
Review 39:Hotel was very clean
Review 40:Minor but I only planned to spend one night so had to move twice to different rooms, all very nice and different.
Review 41:Very nice designer details. Starfish room had 4 ft.round glass floor looking to water below with a starfish. Beautiful thick glass vanity and huge all glass shower Staff great.
Review 42:The "garden view" room turned out to be a street view - but the noise levels are low and security is good, so it wasn't a problem.
Review 43:Great hotel in Bocas - located right on the waterfront. Rooms are spacious, clean, and extremely comfortable - the beds are huge! Kitchen facilities, fridge, etc. If your room rate includes breakfast, then take it at the Buena Vista Bar & Grill a few doors down - delicious!
Review 44:Some kind of simple breakfast would have been nice.a
Review 45:Great staff, great location. Very clean. Very reasonably priced. We will definitely stay here again!
Review 46:Very comfortable. Had a garden suite on ground floor and it was pretty quiet. We had prearranged another hotel, but at check-out the receptionist produced my son's I-Phone! He left it behind on accident & they made sure it got back to us!
Review 47:many little things in the room were missing or not working well. The price was too high...
Review 48:location is great, the view from the balcony simply amazing, on the water
Review 49:The air conditioning unit did freeze one night and stop working but it was extremely hot out so we had probably set it too low.
Review 50:The location was amazing, friendly staff. Totally safe. I loved the place and would totally go back! :)
Review 51:They did not provide us with quad rooms as booked, and put the blame on bookings.com for inaccurately listing that they offered quads. Staff was rude and non apologetic!
Review 52:Location near the arrival pier.
Review 53:Everything was fine
Review 54:Location, nice idea to have breakfast in 3 different places, could go to new place every day, helpful personnel, Internet was working just fine
Review 55:It is impossible not to like this hotel.
Review 56:Everything was perfect, very clean, very comfortable, especially the bed and the kitchen. A great variety of breakfast choices - delicious!
Review 57:Plane lands about 8:30 am, only other choice is to get there at 5:PM. Room was empty and already clean but they would only allow access prior to 3:PM if they were paid an extra $5.00 per hour. Had the Executive suite which is probably the most expensive room on the Island. Why nickle and dime like this. Also, because room was booked though Booking.com, no free breakfast BUT, if you booked directly through the hotel they would match the price and give you free breakfast.
Review 58:Great location; nice rooms, super comfortable beds, great staff.
Review 59:Location is perfect. The room was great value for the money. The terrace room has an excellent water view and other islands. The elevator was very helpful to have. We would definitely stay here on our next trip back.
Review 60:The receptionists were a little rude to the boys in the group. One specific lady was very rude to everyone!
Review 61:We stayed in the 2 bedroom penthouse suite and it was everything we expected and more! Perfect accommodation for our group
Review 62:What hotel does not have an extra blanket? My son slept on sofa bed and they couldnt give us an extra blanket.
Review 63:Location. Can walk to all restaurants and shops.great AC in room.
Review 64:Very friendly and accommodating staff. Cool AC, great town and ocean view, Buena Vista has the best breakfast. Ask for taxi driver Ruben to take you to starfish beach.
Review 65:Air conditioner functioning ok but wiht brokem :"flaps": it was Not possible to change the direction of the air flow.
Review 66:Very big room, real kitchen and big bathroom. Good internet with individual router inside each room.
Review 67:Noise from other guests on other room or other floor was loud at night time. Sound carried throughout the whole hotel area
Review 68:Spacious room, comfortable bed
Review 69:If I had constructive criticism it would be to add to the kitchen - utensils, toaster, that kind of thing. But still very functional despite.
Review 70:Loved the location on the water and right in town. Good sized rooms, clean, comfortable pillow-top mattresses with nice bathrooms. Reasonable kitchen with fridge, stove, basic cutlery and dishes, and coffee maker. We made all breakfasts and 2 dinners easily. Nice porch for sitting on. Quiet. Good air conditioning and fan for air movement. Had lock box too. Excellent value for money.
Review 71:The only thing we felt needed to be improved upon was the water pressure and gauge in the bathroom shower/tub. When taking a shower the water temperature would fluctuate from warm to cool drastically and that is something that should be able to be controlled. If possible, I would also provide tea bags for tea drinkers vs. just coffee in the room.
Review 72:The room with the balcony overlooking the sea was wonderful (spacious, clean, comfortable, and the kitchen facilities in the room were great). Overall being able to store food in a refrigerator, make coffee in the morning, and prepare meals if we wanted to was a major plus.
Review 73:Booked the hotel at the last minute, it turned out to be an excellent choice. Very nice and helpful staff, room was very clean, breakfast was nice and hot from the restaurants next door, location is central. Everything is great!
Review 74:The balconies weren't private at all and the island has been ruined. Full of backpackers and cheap accomodation. Very dirty place that has lost the tropical feel.
Review 75:The hotel was lovely and on the sea. Staff were very helpful and it was very clean
Review 76:The air conditioning can be a bit noisy especially on certain settings. The lighting in suite number 5 is not good at all. Too dark in the bathroom. Could use hooks in the bathroom for hanging towels. The "cold" handle in shower was loose and fell off while I was in shower. Be good if there were full length mirrors in the rooms. Though my bed was comfy the first night my bed sheets had old visible stains on them.
Review 77:The staff was very attentive, friendly, helpful and accommodating. Especially Mayra. She helped me with a lot of my questions. The hotel is very clean. I constantly saw the staff cleaning. The Starfish suite is great with the see through window to the bottom of room (I got to see the starfish). The rooms are spacious.
Review 78:The breakfast that was included was at a place next door, which was not good. I ended up eating at the french bakery on the island which is incredible.
Review 79:The staff was extremely friendly, the room was very comfortable, especially the bed, and the location was incredible
Review 80:This is by far the best hotel in bocca Del toro!!! The staff was so nice. They even upgraded us to the executive suite, which had a balcony that would be larger than any hotel in town.
Review 81:Basically everything about the hotel is good. I came for a long weekend I had to rest and ended up staying one week working remotely. Very good internet access, the rooms are veeery nice and location is just perfect. Can't complain.
Review 82:The only negative was the poor water pressure for hot water. But not a big deal since you do not need hot water with the high temperature
Review 83:Huge room, private balcony in every room. The bed was great and the staff was EXTREMELY helpful. They bent over backwards to make our stay enjoyable. Best wifi I've ever had in a hotel and for no extra fee. We also had a jacuzzi in our room. Best location on Bocas Town.
Review 84:That we could not stay longer!
Review 85:Clean, luxurious hotel in the center of Bocas Town. Great views. The staff arranged all activities for us, restaurants, boat tours, excursions, all without upcharge.
Review 86:The wifi was pretty spotty but then again it is almost everywhere in Bocas.
Review 87:The staff was so helpful with everything. Free breakfast was delicious. The room was great...big with a kitchen and comfortable bed. You can't beat this location right on the water and near everything in Bocas Town.
Review 88:Noisy airconditioning, not very usefull WiFi, somehow pricy and you'll even have to rent for 5 USD the beach towel.
Review 89:Location, staff, space, nice view if you have the oean view
Review 90:Very low water pressure, air conditioner was very noisy, not enough towels given after cleaning, ipod docking station did not work. And overall, the place is a bit overpriced, especially comparing to the other places in town.
Review 91:Large and well designed room, clean, good central location, staff was nice overall, well decorated and very modern
