Comfortable and enjoyable stay
The decor in the room was a little outdated but it was a reaaly good size with a balcony overlooking the water. The bed was very comfortable and there was a desk with a chair as well as 2 other chairs and small table. The bathroom was dated but a good size except the shower was tiny. However everything worked and it was clean. The front desk and restaurant staff were very friendly and helpful. The menu in the restaurant for dinner and breakfast was wrll priced and good variety with several gluten free options.

This is a very nice hotel that is in a great location. You can easily walk into town and the rooms on the South Side have a nice view of the Bay. The birds can get a little “chatty” at night so I wouldn’t recommend sleeping with the patio door open.

The room we stayed in overlooked the lagoon & onto the town & was a quiet serene view. The Panarama Hotel was a great place to travel the Bay of Fires area from & the in-house restaurant had some terrific dishes. Highly recommended from our point.

When we walked in the welcome was lovely the setting was nice and clean. Headed to the room was easy to follow and rooms were nicely kept and clean.
Headed in to the bistro for dinner handed 2 menus that were different. Then went to the bar were 2 bar staffed looked at us without a word then walked away till another person can to take our order. Who was also confused on the menu as we were didnt know there was pre-made cocktails in can to order. Went to get water and the glasses were hot and unpolished and some were dirty .got the good which was 10/10 couldnt fault then sat with the dirty plate for 40min till we left so to sum it up birsti serive was poor which let down the standard and beauty for which we paid for.

We had a most enjoyable stay, however the service at breakfast was very slow and the choices not clear. No price for coffee or juice ! The whole thing could be presented better, help yourself to juice, filter coffee and DIY toast butter etc. Would save the delay and confusion. The two boys there were doing the best they could but everything took too long.
