Situated in El Valle, Hostal Lopez El Valle Cabañas has a garden, shared lounge, BBQ facilities, and free WiFi. Free private parking is available and the hostel also features bike hire for guests who want to explore the surrounding area.

We loved staying here so much that we kept coming back. The garden was lovely (we saw a sloth, armadillo and some lovely birds there) and the studios were large enough to accommodate our toddler and ourselves very comfortably. They provide coffee, shampoo and soap and can supplement this if needed. Beds are great and the hot water was fixed during our first days there which really added value because of El Valle's fresh climate. Whenever we had a question or request the managers were always super quick and happy to help. We will definitely be coming back again! Gracias por todo!

Located in El Valle, Casa Hostal Bouvá features a garden, shared lounge, terrace, and free WiFi throughout the property. There is free private parking and the property provides paid airport shuttle service.

The nearest airport is Panama Pacifico International Airport, 123 km from the hostel.

The location was great, had an awesome view of the mountains from the property. You can see the India Dormida and the Cariguana, which makes for amazing sunsets and sunrises. The place is VERY clean, and breakfast is included. The host is very nice and Carolina, another employee, attended to our needs with no problem (and cooks amazing breakfast!). I also liked that there was private parking, which made me and girlfriend feel safer.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    10 out of 10! Great Staff attracts great people. One of the best hostels I‘ve been in the last 12 years traveling the world (over 300 stays in total) Beds are comfy, quiet dorms, well equipped kitchen, a lot of possibility’s to relax and chat with other guests. Bathroom was clean all the time. There are enough showers and toilets, so you don’t have to wait. If you‘re looking for a party hostel: Go somewhere else. Thank you very much BODHI El Valle for having me and 4 amazing days with lovely people.

    We had a really great time in this hostel! It‘s still pretty new and the concept of the beds in each room is amazing for backpackers! You have everything you need from a big spacious kitchen to a beautiful garden with hammocks and billard :) the people working there are super helpful and the host gave us tips where to hike and even drove us to the starting point of the India Dormida trail which we can highly recommend. Thank you for the amazing time!

    It is a very nice hostel with beautiful common areas. I booked the dorm so that is what I got. Very cheap and great breakfast. Water was warm and very helpful staff. I liked the open shower with wind gowing in but there were leaves everywhere.

    Very well kept hostel in a safe area. Many toilets and always clean. It has 5 kitchens well equipped 3 of which are outdoor by the pool. It was just great being able to cook and eat outside next to the pool. It also has a big game room with a pool table 2 football tables and ping pong table. Probably the best kept hostel we ever stayed at Also the cheapest I found in el Valle.
