multiplaza pacific mall

I live on an island in the Caribbean where most/all clothing is sub par or possibly poor copies so it makes a refreshing change to visit Panama and this mall. Good selection of men's clothing stores where the majority of stores these days have the mens department tucked away at the back of the stores in about a space of 10m2. Right? Has the usual good main street brands so the mall caters for all tastes including the food court for a quick recharge. Take a taxi to and from your accommodation, taxis are cheap and the people very polite and drop you off right outside the main entrance next to Tony Roma's.

This is the best mall in Panama City, might not be the cheaper one, as it has many upscale stores but it is very nice and has all the stores you might need, as well as very nice restaurants, movie theaters, etc. Will definitely recommend this mall instead of Albrook which was "lower" scale stores. It closes at 8pm which I found somewhat early but it is very nice, too bad I only had a couple of hours to dedicate to it.

We were fortunate to have the opportunity to have lodging located right next door to the Multiplaza Pacific Mall here in Panama City. What can I say, this place is big! There are three floors of shops but it appears to go on forever and forever with a wide variety of shops-- many high end ones like Gucci, Nike, electronics, cosmetics, and clothing that are located back in the United States. It is quite a riot to get into this mall as there is a tremendous traffic jam of cars, buses, and taxis waiting all day long. There is no directory on the location of shops other than one electronic (but was not user friendly as it was all -hands on) but walking around may be an adventure by itself. The big food court is located on the 3rd floor with a big variety of choices. It is interesting to window shop here as most merchandise can be found back in the US. The Sanborn Dept. Store has a nice bakery with a wide selection of cakes, bread, and other desserts on the 1st floor. The Steven's Dept. Store has a good assortment of clothing for the whole family. The famous big supermarket - Riba Smith is located in the back past Forever 21, then turn right. It was a challenge to find our way to there as most of the clerks only speak Spanish and by the time they gave us directions in Spanish, we lost them 1/2 way as they speak very fast. Many employees do not speak much English. Walk around Riba Smith's-- they have so many food items on stock!It is busy here with lots of foot traffic but a great place to visit while in Panama City. It is the newest and biggest shopping mall here.

let me explain. if you want to go to this high end mall, please do by car or taxi. due to poor planning by the city. putting this mall near a busy street that does not allow foot traffic. i mean their is no way to get to the mall if you arrive by bus. no lights a a safe crosswalk to get to this mall. you have to cross the two streets ,best with other folks doing the same thing. i especially didnot like playing chicken with foriegen drivers who will not brake for you. your best bet is to ignore this mall and go the the albrook mall. much safer and enjoyable.

Visited this mall twice during a 2-day stay in Panama while waiting for the next flight. We walked from our hotel, but it was well worth it. It has lots(!) of stores to choose from. Many options for a snack or meal too. The place is huge and quite upscale.

The is not a mall where you'd shop for tourist stuff. We looked all over for a shirt or hat that had some sort of sign it came from Panama. We finally found something in one of the department stores.That said, if you're looking for something from your favorite US brand you can find it here. The mall is very clean, well laid out and safe. It even has a grocery store, pharmacy, at least 4 banks, and a hardware store in it.

Awesome shopping mall with all the big named stores you would expect to find in the USA , a food court with with around 20 different choices & a Cinema where for $5.50 ( on a Saturday evening ) you can watch the latest Hollywood Blockbuster in English. Also a great place to escape Panama City's heat & humidity as it's air conditioned throughout.

it is a really nice mall with allot of nice stores. Just wish they had less American Brand Name stores.

One of the great things about Panama is that you can find virtually anything and the prices are cheaper than anywhere else. I particularly like multiplaza because it is relatively close to our hotel and this mall has the luxurious brands at lower prices, but you can also find the regular brands. Clothing, shoes, and cosmetics are cheaper in Panama than in North America. Also, if you are a tourist, you can go to a counter in the mall, show your passport and get the Panama card. With this card you will get at least 10% discount in some stores. I learned about this card the first time I went to Panama.

A great variety of shops - from designer labels (e.g. Chanel, Hermes, D&G, etc.) to regular and no name brands, from underwear and shoes to electronics and sports goods at relatively good prices. There are a number of restaurants including fast food chains, a cinema theater, a supermarket (Riba Smith), several book shops. There is also a banking area - with major banks offices (e.g. BG, Banistmo, etc.). The parking is free up to 1 hour.

I don't think this was worth precious vacation time. We had a few hours so decided to go here. Reminds me of Bellevue Square in Washington, but without anchor stores. Definitely not for me. Oh, taxis outside the mall are double price!

A great place for window shopping unless you have deep pockets, and definitely not a place for bargain hunting. Under a single roof you will find high end establisments as Hermes, Tiffany, Cartier, Ferragamo, Loewe, Pink,,,,etc. down to Ralph Lauren, Brooks Brothers and Banana Republic to name a few, and of course, the obiquitous department stores. Also, you'll find an array of restaurants, rather expensive for the quality and service. Try the food court on the upper level for a less expensive experience, but they are all fast food. Beside, shopping, or I should say window shopping, you can pay your bills, do your banking, watch a movie, or pick up your groceries at the Riba Smith supermarket where you can find just about anything you need for your kitchen and garden. Parking is free only for the first hour. Make sure you validate your ticket, or pay, before exiting the parking lot, otherwise you won´t be able to activate the automatic gate to let you out.

This is pretty similar to high end malls you find in most developed countries. Mediocre restaurants and expensive shops. Hard to find anything at a reasonable price, and there's not much information to guide you where the shops are.

We went shopping here and wasn't all that impressed. The mall is oddly shaped. The food court is just ok.

We visited the Multilevel Mall yesterday for lunch but walked around after we ate to check it out. Really quite an scale mall and. A must see if you are a shopper. It had a huge food court and a wide variety of stores on three levels. There were many US stores in the mall. The mall was very clean and nicely laid out.. We did not walk the entire mall but what we saw was very nice. If you are in Panama City, a trip to this mall should be on your list if you like shopping (or even if you don't). There was a large kiddie play area and strollers for rent.
