Pros:

La Isabela Suites is a walk up (no elevator) located in Old Town Panamá. The area is a UNESCO World Heritage site. Experience the Spanish architectural history of Panama. The area is walkable to shops, restaurants and bars. There are 2 museums in walking distance. Guests service personnel are wonderful. All speak English and are very helpful.

Pros:

We had a very nice 2 room suite and great staff. The kitchen was outfitted with stove, frig and microwave. Bottled water, coffee and Expresso were included in the room.

Andres and Enrique and their staff were very attentive and provided good practical information. They provided a reference to a great guide. We did not rent a car, so we didn't have any parking considerations. They did drive us back to the airport with a very helpful driver in a nice vehicle.

The Avenida Balboa, Cinta Costera Causeway and the neighborhood of Cosco Viejo are all in the immediate area. There was a Rey small grocery around the corner with a nice selection of cheeses, coffees, pastries, beverages and wonderful ice cream. We really enjoyed people watching from the balcony while we nibbled goodies and sipped beverages. We were there during the rainy season and at times retreated to the courtyard to be outside but better protected from the weather.

Just can't find any fault with this hotel. All the staff were gracious and delightful to talk to.

Pros:

Very spacious, comfortable and enjoyable place to stay. Very accommodating. Even though they couldn't give us a late check out, they kept our bags in the office, so we could get lunch before leaving for our flight.

Pros:

The staff was very kind Eduardo was exceptional. He anticipated every need. The first night he gave us a map of the area and showed us how to get around the city. He made sure we knew the best restaurants, when and where the festivals were being held. He was always at the door if we arrived home late, to ensure our safety


He is phenomenal and is definitely a top-tier employee

Pros:

This is the best place for groups. We rent a suite at La Isabela everytime they're available when we're in Panama City. Spacious, modern and very well equipped, it's like having your own two bedroom apartment in casco viejo. The location is amazing as La Pulperia restaurant and the brewery La Rana Dorada are right next store. Many quality restaurants, bars, clubs, and museums are within a 10 minute walk. And their customer service is top notch.

Excellent accommodation with friendly service.
Pros:

A very friendly check in experience at the main hotel followed by an efficient transfer to the annexe building just 5” away.
Our suite was vast and very comfortable with all that was needed for our stay. The location was excellent for accessing all the local sights and a good selection of local restaurants.
Noise/music can be a bit of an issue but that is a constant wherever you stay in Casco Viejo.

Pros:

This hotel has 4 apartments on second and third floor of the building. There is no lobby but you are able to leave your bags with the attendant in a small room on first floor. All attendants were welcoming and very helpful. The apartment was a huge 2 br/2 bath that can easily accommodate 6 people with a nice kitchen. Location in the beginning of Casco Viejo was great.

Pros:

The room was very spacious and had plenty of supplies if you would have liked to make food/eat in. We were only there two nights so didn't need that feature. The bathrooms were really modern and nice and great water pressure! The location was perfect. The fact that we were near the top of Casco Antiguo made getting in and out with Uber very convenient. Uber is very resonably priced and quicky in Panama City. If we had stayed farther down in Casco Antiguo it would have taken longer to get in and out each Uber trip. Instead we could easily walk to anywhere we wanted to go. The hotel staff were very helpful and friendly.
