What a fantastic and beautiful hotel. The staff, particularly Dario who assisted with our bags, was extremely attentive and helpful. Luis, in the restaurant also was particularly kind and informative when sharing information about the hotel and Panamanian coffee! They made my husband and I feel special during our 20th anniversary trip.

The rooms are lovely. My balcony had a great view of the harbor and the city. The food is excellent, the coffee shop and pastries out of this world, and location is central yet quiet. The staff are superb, and treat everyone like a family member. Special shout outs to Ivan and Fatima at the front desk, Shaun at reception and Julissa at the pool bar. They are among the most outstanding of this outstanding staff.

A five star ,completely charming, "Old World" hotel. Excellent location. Very friendly atmosphere. Very well kept up. Exceptional, attentive staff, rooms were spacious and lovely. Beds and linens were first class. Large TV with many [free] movie options. Shower was the best I ever had. Spa services were also wonderful.

The reason for the 4 stars instead of 5 is the breakfast buffet that is way, way below standard for a hotel of this caliber. Only 2-3 different breads, almost liquid scrambled eggs etc. Yoghurt was available but only presented at the buffet in small bowls that went empty after few minutes. All in all a breakfast one would expect at a 2-3 star hotel. The staff at the breakfast and all throughout the hotel were amazing, attentive and very service minded. The room we had was impeccable, clean and well serviced.

Everyone, front desk, butlers, concierge, wait staff, room staff, doormen and drivers, all made us feel well taken care of and treated us like old friends. They seemed happy to greet us whenever seeing us, and genuinely cared about making our stay enjoyable. We loved our stay here and were sad to leave, but we will definitely return to stay again.
