Top Marine Exhibition Center Smithsonian Institute Panama Hotel Reviews

The Balboa Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Kacey was great and helped with checkin. The property opens to a lush protected courtyard that makes you forget you are in the city."

Hotel San Felipe

10/10 Excellent

"Could not be better. Location, clearness friendly staff."

Hotel Casa Panamá

8/10 Good

"Nice and cozy hotel in a nice neighborhood. Comfortable bed. Interesting rooftop area. Affordable price!!!"

Hotel Magnolia Boutique

10/10 Excellent

"I had a wonderful stay at Magnolia Boutique Hotel in Panama City. The hotel is charming, comfortable, and ideally located in Casco Viejo, within easy walking distance of restaurants, cafés, historic sites, and the waterfront. The staff were consistently warm, friendly, and extremely helpful. They gave me excellent restaurant recommendations and also helped me plan sightseeing, including my visit to the Panama Canal. Their suggestions genuinely improved my stay and made it easy to experience the city. My room was clean, comfortable, and had all the character I was hoping for in a boutique hotel. One small note for light sleepers: Casco Viejo has a lively nightlife scene, and from my third-floor room I could sometimes hear nearby clubs late at night. The hotel thoughtfully provides a white-noise machine, and I would definitely recommend using it—it worked well and allowed me to sleep comfortably. Overall, this was a great boutique stay in a fantastic location, with especially wonderful service. I would happily stay here again."

American Trade Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great helpful and friendly staff, good ambience, good amenities."

La Palma Experience

10/10 Excellent

"Excelente opcion para nosotros que fuimos por una exposición en el Convention Center. Walking distance!"

Casco View Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"The apartment was beautifully decorated, modern, and clean. The staff are friendly, extremely resourceful, and caring. They went above and beyond to ensure my deliveries, including prescriptions and food, were received. The staff also referred me to a wonderful Logistics Manager who drove and accompanied me to all of my appointments. A top-tier experience. Best customer service I've experienced in years!"

Hands down, the best place in town!

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay at this property in Casco Viejo. David was immediately responsive to all of our questions. We had a six hour delay getting out of Houston so our arrival ended up being after midnight. We had no problem taking an Uber to the property and David buzzed us in as soon as we arrived at the entry way. The key box worked great and we had an amazing time exploring Casco. One thing to note, the door to the apartment does not lock automatically. You have to lock it on your way out. We rented a car the second day as we were headed to other parts of the country. I had no problem parking on the street. The unit was clean and bright with a very nice balcony from which to watch all of the activity below. This is a colorful neighborhood positioned right on the edge of the trendy shops and restaurants. You will be sharing the area with locals which we really enjoyed. We were out at all hours of the night and felt as safe as you would in any large city. A bit of awareness is always a good idea! I would definitely stay here again."

Casa La Costa By Wynwood House

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice place, clean and big, location is very good to walk around restaurants."
