This stay was a gift for my brother’s wedding, they enjoyed the peace and sights this hotel has to offer. Everything was clean and the staff was really friendly. This hotel has a very nice magical feeling with hobbit like rooms that make you feel inside a fairytale.

Shortly before our stay here we received an email informing us about the construction work, saying that it was mainly the pool and hot tub area that couldn’t be used. In fact it turned out that apart from the bar and restaurant nothing was available at all (no kitchenette, no pool, no climbing wall, etc). When we arrived we could barely hear our own word during check in because of heavy machines everywhere. After a lot of discussion and when we had decided to cancel our stay, we were given rooms further away from all the noise and wanted to give it a try. We do understand that construction work is annoying for everyone working here as well but basic service and a bit more interest to solve problems (no WiFi in our rooms, no water, no electricity for some hours etc) can be expected at such a costly hotel. Once all the work is done it will be a beautiful place and the rooms have really nice interior designs. Still, service was very poor, no room service (!!), no emptying of bins, a dirty floor when we moved in, no water or glass available on the room. Also during breakfast some meals were not available for days. We are sorry for the harsh words and do want to thank the ladies at the front desk for their efforts!

This is our 3rd trip to Boquete, but the first to Bambuda Castle. We stayed in hobbit houses and had a great time. They were clean roomy enough for two. I wish we had known that they were under construction and that the view from our unit would be blocked, however. Staff was very, very friendly and helpful. The whole place could use pressure washing outside, and the hostel kitchen and pool area is starting to show its age. Overall, we would return - the construction should be over by then, and in the meantime, the view from the porch/dining upstairs is fantastic.

It was my first time in Boquete, Bambuda Castle exceeded my expectations. I stayed in a hobbit house, I must say that it was an incredible experience, good food, incredible views, the staff was super friendly and super attentive in every aspect, I will return again.

We stayed in one of the Hobbit Houses for three nights and had a great experience. The rooms were so cute and the bathroom was amazing. The only thing we really missed was a fridge. The grounds are beautiful and the facilities are great. Food and drinks in the restaurant were decent and the laundry service was very quick and efficient. All the staff we met were friendly and very helpful. We had a car so getting into town and back was not an issue. It would be harder without one - you need to pay taxis or walk for about 45mins-1hours (all uphill on way to castle) I would 100% stay here again.

Bambuda Castle in Boquete is a great place to stay. It's special because it's built under the ground on top of a mountain. Our room was very clean, looked cool, and the bed was super comfy. The people working at the front desk were quick to help, very friendly, and listened to what we needed, which was very helpful. Overall, Bambuda Castle is a perfect spot if you want a quiet, comfy place with great service. It's definitely a place worth checking out if you're in Boquete.

The castle seems very outdated. The bed sheet had a blood stain on it and the shared kitchen was absolutely filthy and was very under equipped which really puts you off using the facilities. If you are over 6 foot tall you will not be able to fit in the beds well. To go anywhere you have to take a taxi or the town is a 1hr walk from the castle. The WiFi in the common areas is ok sometimes however in the rooms does not work. Very nice building and setting from the outside but that's the only good thing. Very overpriced.
