The Riverside Inn

0 1 2 3

Stylish Boquete country hotel with luxurious rooms and contemporary décor, including huge windows to emphasise the glorious views.

The small and stylish Riverside Inn on the outskirts of Boquete was originally intended to be a private country house. Each room is thoughtfully and tastefully decorated in a neutral palette using modern materials, with bright artworks lending a splash of colour.

Public areas feature huge windows, making the most of the invigorating countryside views. The junior suites are split level, while the master suite has a four poster bed, views over the river, a huge bathroom with a hot tub, a separate shower and private balcony. The other rooms have spacious bathrooms with rain showers. Coffee tours and other activities in the local area can be arranged.
