Panama City

[Biff Dangler]

It's a great place, just the location requires a taxi to go anywhere and you will be paying the higher rates to and from Trump because you are staying at Trump. But yes it is chica friendly and the view / location is wonderful except for the taxi issue.

Can I get some opinions about the Trump Hotel in Panama City? I went there on a weekday afternoon, last year, just to check it out. Seemed like a very nice place! But all I did was buy a coffee at Juan Valdez, and walk around the lower floors. And I checked out the 66th floor, which I thought was great. I'd be curious to hear more from others with more experience there than I have. Or any opinions about it, really, such as about the condos in the same building, etc, etc.

I wouldn't be asking about it, but something strange happened about a week ago. I was on a travel booking website, and for some reason, the Trump Hotel was showing cheap rates! When I say cheap, I mean $45-65 per night. I haven't seen these cheap rates appear since then, but on that day, I did make a reservation in August, at $59 per night, including taxes.

I'd love to get some opinions about this place. It does seem like a winner -- the poster RacShack wrote here last month, and said he had a great stay, and that there were some chicas on site. That sounds promising to me, since I think that the location is a bit remote. Also, I've read here that the hotel is chica-friendly, which was nice to read.

Thanks in advance for any information or opinions! And please let me know if I can answer anything.

Hi guys,

It'll be my first time in PC and I'm interested in checking out.

The massage parlors. I've heard golden times is a winner, what.

Else do you guys recommend and where can I find them?

I hear there's a great Dominican place called Aviana.

Thanks in advance, looking forward to a great trip.

Thanks Mfins,

Appreciate the info. This is my 1st trip to (actually an intentionally extended to 2 nights layover in) PTY, the El Panama with its pool looks really appealing on the photos. Plus it's within walking distance to several "destinations," just the way I like it.

Do you have a particular chica-friendly condo in mind?

Thanks.

Your welcome, try VRBO. They have short term condo rentals. You rent directly from the owner. The condo you rent is yours to do as you wish during your stay. Bringing girls back won't be an issue at all.

I was in Panama a couple months ago and found very few chicas working Veneto on Sunday night. I wasn't yet aware of Habanos then so didn't check it out. I'm planning another trip and wondering if there are many chicas available at Habanos on Sunday nights or if they "take if off" so to speak. Just trying to figure out if I should avoid Sunday night in Panama.

Thanks

If you want to go to Goldfingers tell the taxi driver to take you to fantastic casino in El Dorado. Go inside (shitty casino with machines only, but they had live music the night I went, the singer was fucking hot) sit around for about 5-10 minutes, then go out, behind the casino is the shopping center with goldfingers, its probably night so you will see a small red neon light and the security guy outside. You save some money on the cab driver getting his cut, I think its like 20 bucks or something. Also when you're finished the taxi guys outside overcharge, so just walk to one of the streets catch a cab there to wherever you're going. Now about my experience, previously it has be great, but this time I picked a girl (number 3 or 6, can't remember, I think 3) and she was beautiful, but when we got to the room she undressed and had a huge bandage on her knee, said she fell and hurt herself, later on she wanted to give me a massage first (massage sucked, always say no here) She proceeds to talk to me about ill give you a good massage give me a good Teet (tip) I'm thinking this is crazy. Whatever, she is lazy performing, doesn't want to do K9 because of her knee, just a stuck up. Usually the girls here perform like porn stars.

Certain hotels "want" certain things, and certain cabbies "want" certain prices. I want a Ferrari. One possibly helpful experiment might be to want in one hand, shit in the other, and see which one fills up first.

Dude. You seriously are funny. I wish I was still there to buy you a couple drinks. Personally I want a 2005 VW Jetta as my 911 Cab is always in the shoppe!

Cheers!

It 100% wasnt when I stayed there 2 years ago. I believe they wanted $100 to bring a guest or something. They gave out wristbands.

Was 2 years ago though so I do not know if things changed.

It was govt. Owned then.

Stay in a condo.

Does anyone know if El Panama is chica-friendly?

Thanks in advance.

So who cares about hotels being chica friendly or not, why not stay in an apartment using Airbnb and come and go as you please with whomever you want?

BINGO! Especially in Panama.

[Mfins]

And that is the way it happens 95 percent of the time at the nicer hotels. Age19 I think is still a rookie, clueless, or is a budget traveler who does not stay in the finer places, or he would have understood the way things work at the nicer accommodations.

Old Parr, I completely agree with you but, Agee19 might be the exception to the rule. He said he stayed at the Waldorff Astoria. Interestingly enough that is probably one of the top 5 luxury hotels in Panama. Along with the Trump etc.

Once you get past the Marriotts, Hiltons, etc and go up to the next level of Luxury those hotels are surprisingly lax when it comes to guest policy. I guess they figure if your paying this much to stay here go ahead and do what you want we are not going to hassle you over something trivial. Also, those hotels do not have many male guests that are bringing back pros. So there really isn't a need to have a policy in place and they are noton Patrol late at night looking for it.

All it takes however is for an incident to happen like a loud argument between a John and a pro over payment. Or a lamp being broken by a drunken guest and his lady of the night, and the hotel will quickly implement a strict guest policy. Thoses hotels do not want any problems or to be associated with that.

It still amazes me that aggressive guys who know how to negotiate with a working girl, can handle a cabbie and are world travelers become sissy little pansies when it comes to a hotel. It's simple. Make a reservation for 2. No where does it state in any hotel policy that the second person has to be related, a spouse a friend for at least 9 years or a business associate. The second person can be anyone you want. Have I had situations in the past with over zealous security guards? Yes! But I always win why? Because I'm the paying guest and I did nothing wrong. Agreed, sometimes I had to speak to a manager and point out that one plus one equals two and in that simple scenario it is hard to argue. Obviously you are going to be discreet and hopefully upscale for the 4 or 5 star hotel your staying in, but don't allow anyone to tell you what you can or cannot do. Understand?

Its just not that simple in panama. Sorry.

A Colombian / Cuban working girl can be spotted by the local Panamanian Hotel Security guard or receptionist from a mile a way. Even if she is dressed conservitavley. You can argue to your hearts content but, they know what is up. A simple give away is the John speaks no spanish your date speaks no english where as the hotel receptionist speaks both. In addition they are usually 20 years old where you are 40 and over. However, none of that even matters the Colombians, dress different, talk different act different, look different and the hotel workers know it. If it is a female hotel receptionist even worse. She knows what you are doing, resents the fact that the Colombiana's are selling there bodies in her country and are jelous that your date is better looking than she is.

Also, the rule of booking the room with 2 people is fine however 9 times out of 10 that person must Register at the same time you do when checking in. There name must be on the Reservation or Check in Card when you check in. Not the next night or the night after. Also, even if you register her and get away with it the first night what are you going to say the next night when you bring a different girl back with a different name?

With all this being said, Hotel occupancy is down in panama and Hotels are relaxing policies a little.
