Guest Reviews
- Maite (10/5): - Loved where it was located . Very thankful with the upgrade to the room with a balcony, we really enjoyed having drinks there overlooking the plaza
- Pablo (9/5): -
- John (10/5): -
- Rebecca (10/5): - Perfect location! Staff were so helpful.
- Lorena (10/5): Servicio destacado y personal profesional y muy agradable - Sin duda la atención del personal y el mismo personal. Super colaboradores, buena actitud, proactivos, educados. En verdad que el servicio fue nivel TOP y la comida excelente. La ubicación es buena, solo que tiene Iglesia cerca y esos campanazos no dejan dormir tan bien, lo cual no es culpa del hotel. Esta un poco caro el costo por noche considerando que casi en frente tiene un hotel a la mitad de la tarifa y muy lindo también.
- Luis (10/5): i will go back - i like to amazing location and proximity to different venues. The hotel is conveniently located in the old city with an amazing on site coffee shop everything was amazing
- Alessandro (10/5): Bellissimo - FANTASTICO hotel in pieno Casco Viejo. Bellissimo internamente, in stile coloniale, strapulito. Camere davvero belle e personale delizioso. Unica nota stonata (per un italiano): nei bagni non c’è nè il doccino nè la spazzola per pulire il wc. Molto comune a Panama, ma per un italiano è un problema 😅. Ma non può inficiare il voto, hotel troppo bello
- Lucienne (8/5): No volvería por las campanadas, pero el hotel súper lindo - La decoración, súper lindo Las campanadas de la iglesia de al lado, a cada rato y te despiertan todas las mañanas y que me cobraron 500 dólares de más q luego de reclamar me devolvieron
- carolina (10/5): todo aparte del baño, muy bien - se ve algo de deterioro en los marcos de las puertas que dan al balcon, comido por la polilla, el agua caliente del baño poco regulada, la luz no es suficiente, y habian pelos en las paredes. el baño en general no esta bien mantenido ni es de un hotel 5 estrellas ni de 4 estrellas
- Zeeshan (3/5): Overpriced. Disappointing. - good location No early check-in. We were made to sit till 2:30 pm for a room.
They refused to add hilton honors membership to the reservation.
- Martina (8/5): -
- Zoi (4/5): Colonial aspirations - Location central
Lobby pretty Not much of a view.
Housekeeping mediocre. Light and fan system weird and lights blind you but not give you enough light. Restaurant so-so
- Zoi (4/5): Colonial aspirations - Location is central in the old city Housekeeping left my room with an unlocked open door. Luckily nothing disappeared. It never seemed clean, the light and fan system make zero sense. The restaurant mediocre.
- Cristal (10/5): -
- bettyIllinois (8/5): Not many people - We love the historic feel of the place. Definitely feels like old Panama. If you want to roll your bag into the room make sure to ask if you can do so. We stayed in room 111 and there were steps in the hallway which was inconvenient for large bag. The rooms are comfortable and the church bells did not bother us. Bathroom shower has a lot of water but we never could get it hot enough. Service excellent and friendly. Bar was closed at 7:30 PM. In the past there was always a lot of guest in restaurant and this time there were very few people in general.
- David (9/5): -
- Alex (6/5): -
- Marta (7/5): - The hotel is stunning and in a great location. Everyone is very welcoming and polite. The room was noisy, and couldn’t turn off the ac/fan to stop the noise.
- Jennifer (9/5): Perfect for exploring Casco Antiguo and Holy Week processions! -
- Attal (8/5): - Localisation+++
Style du bâtiment La chambre tristounette
- Rosa (9/5): -
- CHRISTIAN (7/5): Excelente Ubicacion! - La Ubicacion Muy ruidoso.
- CHRISTIAN (10/5): - La atención increible, buena ubicación y muy buenaa instalaciones Lo único es que en las habitaciones se escuchaba el ruido exterior, y puede ser un poco desagradable
- Julie (7/5): Old world elegance in a great location, nighttime noise so perhaps room not facing the square. - Exquisite, elegant old hotel with all the modern amenities. Staff, beyond compare; friendly, knowledgeable and extremely competent. Breakfast was delicious and the rooftop pool was heavenly. Location is wonderful, easy walking distance to all things in Casco Viejo. Outstanding food and good value for price. Unfortunately, the surrounding clubs were quite noisy a couple of nights during our stay, disco beat until 2 a.m.
- Jennifer (9/5): Charming boutique hotel in Casco Viejo - The location and the staff are excellent and welcoming. Comfortable rooms, close to old town action and churches. Good restaurant and bar on site. Loved our balcony and came to love the church bells
- Felipe (7/5): -
- Patricia (9/5): -
- Normanne (9/5): -
- Michael (10/5): -
- Sladjana (7/5): Excellent séjour ! Emplacement idéal en plein cœur du Casco Viejo, chambres spacieuses et propres, et personnel très aim - L’emplacement est excellent, en plein cœur du Casco Viejo, avec une belle vue sur la place Herrero.
Les chambres sont spacieuses et très propres, ce qui rend le séjour très confortable.
Le personnel est particulièrement aimable et accueillant, toujours disponible en cas de besoin. J’étais dans une chambre donnant sur l’église, et on entend les cloches sonner régulièrement entre 6h30 et minuit. Cela peut être dérangeant, surtout pour les personnes sensibles au brut.
- Elena (10/5): Excepcional - Todo, instalaciones, habitacion, restaurante, atención del personal , ubicación … Nada
- Timothy (9/5): Excellent choice - Charming, perfectly located in the old city Nothing
- Collins (9/5): Such a beautiful relaxing stay in a wonderful hotel.all staff were top class! - Everything Nothing
- H4300ONianc (6/5): Perfect location and amazing tours - Wonderful stay at but... As for areas of improvement, service can sometimes feel a bit slow during busy moments. Additionally, while the hotel’s boutique concept is part of its charm, it does mean that some facilities typically found in larger luxury hotels are limited. Perfect location in Casco Viejo, good place to unwind after exploring the city.
Our trip was made truly unforgettable thanks to MiViajeaPanamá (+50763242898), who designed an incredible tailor-made journey across Panama: Caribbean and Pacific side, whale watching, sunrise at the highest mountain in Panama, virgin cays in Bocas del Toro..., every detail was thoughtfully organized.
We highly recommend both the hotel and the agency for an authentic and memorable experience in Panama.
- Steven (10/5): -
- Guzman Fermin (9/5): -
- Talukdar (10/5): -
- Carla (10/5): It was a beautiful place, wish we. Ould have stay longer. Nice and professional personnel. - Beautiful hotel Centrally located across from a lovely park
- doog (10/5): A superb stay at one of my favourite hotels in the world - The panoramic has an exceptional view of plaza Herrera, the Bridge of, the Bio Museo, the ships entering the canal, the old town, and modern Panama City. The staff from the GM Genesis, to the front desk, to the servers and doormen go above and beyond for you, the food is excellent, the rooms perfect with L’Occitane products, the decor of the hotel is stunning. They do a really good job. Mmmmm…….you have to leave?
- Jguerrero (7/5): Ubicación excelente - El estilo de decoracion muy bonito, los camareros y los recepcionistas fueron muy amables Hacia mucho frío en el hall. El desayuno un poco caro
- Mr. Leijs (8/5): -
- roberto (10/5): Ótima experiência , voltarei caso vá ao Panamá novamente - Localização, charme do hotel e ótimo serviço ! Os Quartos dos fundos tem um sino da igreja que e insuportável
- Ulrike (10/5): - Sehr schönes Hotel, ideal gelegen.
- cath71_11 (10/5): Lovely hotel - Stayed for 3 nights. In the heart of old town. Good breakfast which was included in our stay (Fixed menu) Good views across the city. We had no issues with the noise. Everything is close by shops, bars etc. Hop on hop off bus close by which was handy for getting to the locks.
- Magdolna Eva (10/5): -
- Simon (9/5): Great location to explore old town Panama City - Location and high ceilings in rooms
- DomedyM (10/5): Lovely and central! - If you like historic buildings remodeled in a beautiful and functional way, this place is for you. Stayed five nights. We had room 405, which is a gorgeous suite with views of the adjacent square and ocean from every room, plus a cute balcony. Incredible water pressure in the shower. Prompt room service. Very friendly staff. Great location for walking all around Casco Viejo.
My only negative was that it was a bit noisy on weekends from a rooftop bar on the other side of the square.
- ColoFun1 (6/5): Noisy - The hotel is located in a great location in Casco Viejo - very walkable to everything in town. The room was large and the bed was comfortable. The building itself is historic and cute. The restaurant was good.
However, for the price point I was disappointed. Service was lacking - the main light bulb in the bathroom was out when I arrived. It was so dark in there that I could barely see my face in the mirror. I asked for maintenance to come change it and was assured it would happen. By the time I left for dinner it still wasn’t fixed so I stopped by the front desk and they assured me it would be fixed while I was out. It didn’t happen. I called the front desk and they told me they would work on it the next day. Finally it got fixed but it should not have taken 4 calls and 24 hours. It also took quite a bit of discussion with the front desk to get them to give me the free breakfast I get with my Hilton status.
Other things - I expected normal city noise but did not expect the very loud church bells every 15 minutes from 6:30am till 9pm. My room was directly across from the bells so it was quite loud. I know they can’t control the bells but they could invest in better sound protection windows. The shower was large and nice but the temperature control was extremely temperamental. I had to run the water for 5-10 min to get it to warm up at all.
Overall a so-so experience for the price.
- Richard (8/5): - Our room was spacious and well equipped, the hotel is styish and conveniently located in the heart of Casco Viejo close to local shops and restaurants, and the staff was friendly and very helpful.
- Erich (10/5): -
- Isabelle (9/5): Prachtig koloniaal - Het hotel zelf prachtig!! Als er iets beetje minder was is de acoustic bij de receptie maar dat valt weg bij hoe het er uit ziet! Ook is het er misschien iets te koud
- Jules (7/5): - There were church bells ringing RIGHT OUTSIDE THE WINDOW starting at 6:30am, every day. And they would end at 10pm. Impossible to sleep well.
Also, the wifi in the room wasn't great. It didn't work in the bathroom.
- Maria Cecilia (10/5): Magnifique - La atencion del personal, las comodidades del hotel y la ubicacion fueron perfectos. La cama fue espectacular. Las campanas de la iglesia nos despertaron muy temprano.
- Nicholas (9/5): Excellent service - Great view Room was a bit dark
- Arleen (5/5): Fair, but not worth the high price. - Breakfast was good but glad we did not pre-purchase as it was cheaper than the prepay price. The staff was friendly. The room was really dark. After the water got hot which took about 5 minutes it was almost scalding and would not adjust even when changing the controls to cold. There is a church across the street that rings bells every 15 minutes from 6:30 AM until 10 PM. I realize that is not in the hotel’s control but warning would be fair. I was pretty sure I had reserved a room with a balcony but our room did not have one.

- K240FDjudyr (10/5): Old World Elegance - This hotel is all that; excellent location, beautifully restored, exquisite attention to detail, luxurious use of building materials, attentive and well trained staff and excellent meals that were visually appealing with fresh ingredients.
We loved staying here, overlooking the bay while watching fireworks and ringing in the new year. Will come back for my next visit to Panama!
- Sanjiv (8/5): -
- Silkia (10/5): Excellent stay in Casco Viejo - Location, cleanliness, staff, restaurant, the room Nothing
- James (10/5): Charming hotel, perfectly located, a bit pricey but in this case well worth it. - Pretty much everything. Exceptional location in the old town, innumerable attractions within easy walking distance. The front desk staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly. Chose this hotel based largely on very positive reviews and was not disappointed. Not a single disappointment.
- Joan (6/5): Overall it is a nice hotel in a good location but the noise ruined our stay! - Excellent location and courteous staff Do not book this on weekends!! There were weddings both Friday and Saturday night with disco blaring until 3 am both nights!! We also had a major issue with the air handling system in our room which made extremely load banging and fan noises intermittently , once at 2:00 a.m. we recorded the noise and showed it to the front desk. Maintenance apparently checked it but it happened at least twice more after that.
- Tom (7/5): Casco Viejo, the old city of Panama City, is a great place to spend a long weekend. - Excellent location within walking distance of museums in the old city and many good restaurants. Attentive staff. Lighting in our room was dim and inadequate. Breakfast offerings limited (no buffet).
- David (8/5): Very friendly staff. Great location in center of tourist district. - The location was great.
Great breakfast. Pool too small.
Church bells ringing every 15 minutes.
- Heather (9/5): - Great location and good service
- Segolene (8/5): Hôtel colonial déco et bien situé - Emplacement, qualité du petit déjeuner, lit ultra confortable, les portiers adorables Le bruit (cloches de l’église en face), le personnel est inégalement sympathique (une jeune femme a l’accueil adorable et une autre limite aimable et idem au restaurant).
On avait réservé 1 chambre pour 3 adolescents et ils avaient prévu de les faire dormir tous les 3 dans le même lit. Quand on a dit qu’on ne comprenait pas pourquoi la chambre n’était pas prévue pour 3, on nous a répondu que dans certaines familles tous les enfants dormaient dans le même lit et que si on voulait 2 lits, il fallait payer un supplément…
- Mette (7/5): - Charmerende kolonialt hotel i midten af byen. Det har mange fine detaljer, men er lidt nedslidt. Fantastisk morgenmad og udsøgt betjening. Jeg ville vælge et værelse der ikke har front mod pladsen. Der er ekstremt meget larm og musik fra pladsen Betjening og indretning. Dejlig pool
- joelsss44 (6/5): Constant loud dance music ruined an otherwise wonderful hotel! - This is a beautiful restored hotel in a historic building located in a perfect location. The hotel pays close attention to details bringing historic charm to a modern age. The twice daily maid service was great as was the gift bag we received upon arrival. The water pressure created an amazing Shower of Power.
BUT…across the street there is a nightclub that plays LOUD dance music until 1AM some nights and until 3AM other nights. It is so loud, the hotel provides earplugs in the room. But it’s not nearly enough. Even with the earplugs, you can still literally feel the bass from the music. So unless you can sleep through a literal dance party, you might reconsider booking this hotel.
- Diana Soraya (10/5): Inolvidable. - Hermosos hotel. Excelente ubicación. Persona muy amable. Todo me gustó
- Susan (8/5): Great hotel except for the outside loud music. - The hotel was lovely, very well located in Casco Viejo. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Our room was well appointed and big enough. The loud music from surrounding buildings went on to the early hours every night. This must be a regular occurrence as we were given earplugs in our bathroom vanity kit.
- Edit (10/5): -
- GSL (10/5): -
- Mr. Leijs (8/5): Nice upscale place, in a lovely artdeco style hotel! - Really nice location, super nice down stairs lobby/restaurant area! Nice roof top and beds were very compfy. Bathroom, the shower was super difficult to manage (door/hot/cold water is not well thought abt, you are totally wet, when opening the tab, with cold water...., no bathtub, no bidet/toilet shower, very small pool area, and only for sunbeds..... I would add some.
- GSL (10/5): -
- Barb (10/5): Couldn't have imagined a nicer stay - The breakfast was beyond what I expected and my daughter claims the shower in our room to be the best of any hotel we've ever stayed in. Absolutely nothing!
- Melyssa (10/5): -
- 543lanid (10/5): Exceptional historical hotel in a prime locstion - Beautifully restored hotel that faces onto a scenic public square. Our room had French doors onto the plaza & a little balcony with table & chairs— we loved this! Comfortable rooms with lots of amenities, very helpful staff. We loved the library room, rooftop pool deck and the little jazz club at one end of the building. Restaurant has good, creative menu choices. A very special place!
- Shannon (10/5): Beautiful - Location and style
- Joachim (10/5): A very nice hotel in the middle of Casco Viejo - Great location, quiet at night (the bell of the church next door does not ring during the night), friendly staff, excellent breakfast, comfortable and nice room.
- Elsebir Michelle (6/5): - El edificio es muy lindo, el personal fuera de serie muy amable. La comida es muy buena, el hotel está muy completo en amenidades. Las campanas de la iglesia, las personas que salen en la noche en las calles se escuchan, y sino la alarma de incendio el viernes a las cuatro de la manana. Nos quedamos de viernes a domingo, no recomendaria quedarse en el área del casco viejo si necesitan descansar.
- Thomas (8/5): The hotel, staff and amenities are all quite special. - The breakfast and lobby bar are both excellent with delicious food and a good value. The staff are always friendly and professional.
The hotel’s architecture and history are amazing. Kimberly at the front desk will help with anything you may need and booked transportation and meals at special restaurants while we were there.
The door staff and busmen are always welcoming and helpful.
The restaurant/bar staff are creative and knowledgeable and will find you something that is very tasty.
Our room was comfortable and well appointed. Housekeeping is very amenable to any requests.
The hotel is situated in a great location near five-star quality food, cafés, specialty shops and points of interest. As the building is older, mechanical systems may not operate perfectly. This was nothing that we could not deal with and always managed to figure out solutions.
There is some street noise from the city, but we became accustomed to it quickly.
- BERNARDO (10/5): -
- Thomas (4/5): - I wanted to give this hotel a positive review, because it's appearance, both exterior and interior, is immaculate. The property is beautiful and seemingly well maintained. The hotel is also in a convenient location in the old part of the city. The hotel staff were professional, polite, and helpful. The frequent loud ringing of church bells nearby may be bothersome for some guests (my room was not soundproof), but it was not bothersome for me. I mention this for prospective guests who may experience sound sensitivity.
I wrote that the property is "seemingly" well maintained, because I do not believe that to actually be the case. Every time I tried to use hot water in my bathroom, it was unavailable, both in the sink, and in the shower. Every time I needed hot water, I had to go to the concierge desk and inform hotel staff that there was no hot water in my bathroom. If this had been a one time occurrence, I could have considered it a fluke and not mentioned it here in this review, however I had to leave my room and visit the concierge EVERY time I needed hot water available. Maintenance staff had to be repeatedly sent to my room. On one occasion, I lost the hot water they had managed to provide to me less than half way through a brief shower, which was very unpleasant. While the hotel would appear to be high end in appearance, it was not high end in its accommodations. Sadly, despite its beautiful appearance, I would not recommend a stay here.

- Sean (10/5): Amazing stay at the ATH - After several weeks of research on hotel review sites we decided on staying at the ATH for a family vacation to Panama. Overall we must say our stay surpassed our expectations and we would definitely stay there again.
Location: Being smack in the middle of Casco Viejo, we enjoyed the antiquity of the surroundings. It was next door to a great little square and a fantastic church. It was easy to get an Uber from the airport and from the hotel to anywhere else in Panama City. There were numerous walking location restaurants, bars, cafes, bakeries and a convenient small grocery just across the street. Its a 15min walk to the Metro, that was convenient, cheap and on time. We thought the walk was safe but may be subjective based on your travel experiences.
Room: The room was spacious and quite high ceilinged. Comfortable bed and our room had an accessible wrap around balcony. Convenient for a morning or afternoon coffee or glass of wine. Good wifi signal and speed and a useful smart TV. A bar with fridge came in useful. Some previous reviews complained about noise around Plaza Herrera. We are deeper sleepers so that didnt affect us, though on weekends you were likely to hear the music extend into early morning hours. If you are a light sleeper we recommend you ask for a room facing the church instead of the park as that might reduce the volume a bit.
Staff: Did everything to make our stay comfortable and informed. Xtra thanks to Arturo who was Excellent in making our stay great!

- rhiannon (9/5): Super helpful staff. Tried very hard to accommodate my vegan family. Would return - Central location . Lovely decor Rather noisy at night due to outside activity. Mainly car alarms, church bells and people walking along street! Rooms facing square may be quieter.
