We rented mountain bikes from Gamboa Bikes for the days we were in Gamboa. This gave us the flexibility to bike both the Pipeline and Plantation Roads, both of which were wonderful for both hiking and biking (although the Pipeline Rd was a bit bumpier).

Enjoyed staying there for three days .
Enjoyed staying there for three days . Took most of the tours offered . The river tour was the best . Don’t expect to see a lot of wildlife as advertised .
The resort itself is an old one and very tired looking . They need to do a major facelift . The food is acceptable . Room was also very tired looking . Pool area is great . When booking tours , the staff didn’t seem to be competent . They didn’t charge us when we booked the lift tour and we almost didn’t make it !

It´s a great place to travel with kids.
It´s a great place to travel with kids. The excursions give you the opportunity to get in touch with the Panamanian nature. I recommend the boat excursion, You can sail near big boats entering the Canal. They also take to specific spost where you can see monkeys and other animals.

We loved our stay at Gamboa Rainforest Resort.
We loved our stay at Gamboa Rainforest Resort.
So much to do near the resort. The. Cultural and Nature excursions were first rate. The Panama Canal is fascinating to learn about. The facilities are gorgeous and although they are a bit vintage and show wear one sees the bones of this beautiful property cannot Be denied. There was a beautiful wedding while we were there and we went to nature sanctuaries hiked jungle trails and saw all kinds of animals Monkeys and birds. One of The best parts of our 2 week stay in Panama!
Wish there were more food options however.

I want Booking.com to pay attention to the comments.
I want Booking.com to pay attention to the comments. But, no one has contacted me since I wrote this.
The property advert is misleading. To help and protect other traveler Booking.com surely has a duty to remedy this - to avoid them also being disappointed.
I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you

Gamboa itself is a small village.
Gamboa itself is a small village. There is only a restaurant or two outside of the hotel, and one small grocery story for common items.
The visit is really based on the Gamboa Rainforest Resort (lots of tours) and the Pipeload road and Discovery center for birding.
The amenities that are included in hotel rooms are designed to make guests' stays as pleasurable as possible. These amenities include bathrooms that are spotless and gleaming, as well as large, comfy mattresses that are set up with unique bedspreads on their own. The gardens are exceptionally beautiful and well-kept. The beds are really comfy, and the complimentary breakfasts are hearty and abundant. It is my strong suggestion that you do so.
Beautiful, safe neighborhood with a native garden tucked up near the rainforest. The studio was perfectly clean with all visitors need in the bathroom and kitchen. The owner was out and f the country but was readily in contact by messages. There was a break in the water line to Gamboa but we were both immediately notified and our water needs were met completely. The birding was awesome. We’ll be back in a heartbeat.
Charming 1930s house in local neighborhood of very small town of Gamboa. Great location amidst the rainforest - we saw all kinds of birds and animals. The house is lovely, has high ceilings, fans, mosquito netting on the windows and is very comfortable. Gamboa is a lovely small rural place to stay and Jorge was a wonderful host.
The view of the river from the room and the bar is worth it. Very quiet. Nothing to do except take the tours, which are very good. Highly recommend; the Tram & Observation Tower tour, the Canal boat tour, & the Sloth, Butterfly & Frog Tour. Friendly staff.
Beautiful location in the gamboa rainforest. Stunning views from the balcony and very peaceful listening to the birds and other animals in the morning. The room was spacious and beds were very comfortable. The pool area was great.
The staff are the great asset of the hotel. They are all very friendly and helpful. They went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. The room was clean and it was great to have a balcony overlooking the Chagres River.
the only thing I enjoyed about the property was the location in the rainforest and the sloths. lots of capybaras on the property at night and Mexican raccoons. other then that the whole stay was a complete disaster.
This was a pleasant surprise! I wish ALL my bookings could be like this. Clean, organized, great location (given it was in Gamboa, basically in the middle of nowhere), great condition with everything you needed.
Beautiful hotel, location in the forest, utstanding view, equipment, helpful personnel (the majority)
70 m long swimming pool, cleanliness, various facilities, excursions in the immediate vicinity
The hotel is in a privileged location surrounded by nature. It's not a five star hotel by European standards but the interior is impressive.
Good complete breakfast
