There aren't many hotels in Chitre. An old edition of Lonely Planet "Panama" recommended it. It was fine. Old, but reasonably priced and across the street from the cathedral. Excellent a/c in the room which is a must for hot Chitre. Mediocre hotel restaurant. No on-site parking, so it's the street or some parking garage.

Mas o menos

The location of the hotel directly across from the cathedral was fantastic, especially since I was there Easter weekend with all the activity. The staff was wonderful. The room was awful. Small, dingy, old, in need of serious repair. The lobby and common areas were nice, but the room itself was Motel 6 quality or worse. Got the job done for 2 nights, but would not recommend. 

Basic, but old hotel. Functional.

Accommodations were basic but clean and comfortable.  Hot water with good water pressure .  Beds okay.  No nightstand for cell phone,  alarm clock, eyeglasses, etc.   Room rate quoted was for 2 adults.   Traveled with a family of  2 children. They booked a standard room with 2 double beds,  and one child and one adult slept in each bed.   The hotel charged  a DOUBLE room rate, insisting the 2 children be billed as 2 additional adults.  What should have been a  low-season room rate of $44 ended up being an $88 room.   Children were ages 6 and 10.   

Hotel boasts a restaurant, but it closed very early  so dinner was not available.  A request to purchase  a simple ice cream treat for the children would not be accommodated by  hotel staff & nearby facilities  were closed on a Sunday. 

No parking available except on the street around the central park.

Would not return here for lodging  unless traveling as a single person or  couple.

Deceptive Room Rates, Not Family Friendly

We stayed one night at Hotel Rex. Although the room was somewhat small, it was clean and comfortable. We were situated on the second floor which includes a verandah where one can sit and look out at the town square in the evening.

The bed was extremely comfortable.

Great Location

PROS
-LOW BUDGET- with retiree(pensionado) rate ($32.00)
-centrally located in front of town square
-nice bar
-friendly people and service
-comfortable beds
-great air conditioning
-great hot water

CONS
-beds need better sheets- my sheets, you could see through and did not fit the bed
-needs to fix window blinds- all broken and missing slats so light shines through
-parking could be difficult... we parked in the street and left our big luggage in the car
-needs better shower head

Low budget but VERY CLEAN and VERY NICE

An extremely well run hotel, service is awesome and friendly...thebest coffee in town with Panamá's Hojaldres. Esperanza the owner is beautiful. Ask for Samy or Hilda for service in the resturant. Highly recommended!

awesome hotel

Stayed here two nights during Semana Santa, when other rooms in the region were fully booked.  On the plus side, the rooms are clean, the prices are quite reasonable, and the veranda on the second floor provided a wonderful spot to watch the Good Friday parade. On the down side, one of the rooms had no hot water, there is no elevator, and the staff are not very friendly.

adequate

We stayed at the Hotel Rex on our way back to Panama City.  The price was very reasonable and the room was basic, but clean.  The a/c worked and the shower was
hot.  However, There were large pieces of corrugated metal on the roof that were not
nailed down and they flapped in the wind all night long.  It was very noisy

Inexpensive but very noisy

We stayed one day in chitre ,a stop over on our way to the mountain region. Its a need town with a nice little square . We stayed  at hotel rex right on the square it has good rooms , we got a double with private bath and Arco for $36.50
We enjoyed the common terrazzo that overlooks the square

chitre a need town for a day or so

I went to Chitre on a business trip and decided to spend the night here. 
The hotel is right in front of a cathedral and a small par. It is located in the center of Chitre, and it's a well know place so you can get there easily. Just tell the driver to take you to Hotel Rex or if you're driving, you can ask the locals for directions and they will kindly help you. There are also several small restaurants as well as food trucks around in case you don't want to dine in the hotel' s room, which is just okay.
Rooms were very clean and since the place is located in the middle of the main streets, you should expect some traffic noise. Overall I would recommend Hotel Rex if you mainly want to rest and have a place near stores, restaurants, pharmacies, taxis, etc.
