David City is a convenient stopping point on your way to Costa Rica, or Bocas del Toro. You can easily make day trips to Boquete and Cerro Punta. It also tends to be less rainy in David City, than in other parts of the country, so with more dependability you can plan your city jaunts, shopping and sun intake in our glorious backyard and shower garden!!

Here are some additional reviews from a few of the many satisfied clients that have stayed at The Purple House Hostel recently. These are from August/September 2008.

'Just wanted to thank you so much for a great stay. I was almost planning to skip over David City and move on to somewhere else, but your nice hostel kept me there for three days!' Tamar from Israel.

'Your hostel is one the cleanest and well maintained places that we have stayed in during our travels in Central America. The high quality of service that you offer for the cheap price is truly quite impressive.' Julie from U.S.A.

'My father wanted to stay in a hotel, but I wanted to meet other young travelers. It worked out perfectly that he could get his own private room with private bath, and I could hang out in the dorms with other travelers.' Kevin from U.S.A.

'You and your staff were very friendly and helpful.' Sabine from Switzerland

'It was a nice party hostel but still we appreciated that we could get a good night sleep for our early hike the next morning.' Jeroen and Erik from Holland

Sometimes the reservations systems show us as full, or taxi drivers or other people will tell you we are closed or full, when in fact, we have plenty of space available. If you have a problem reserving for the same day or the next day through HostelBookers.com please email or call us directly to find out if we have space available.

To avoid overbooking, please note that we do not accept private room reservations through this online reservation service during the Annual International Fair of David (March 10-25, 2009). EMAIL DIRECTLY AT THE HOSTEL IN ORDER TO GUARANTEE YOUR RESERVATION DURING THIS PERIOD.
