Location, rooms, staff and meals were all excellent!! I had a little issue at check-in and it was handled very respectfully by the front desk staff. I also used their paid Airport transfer service, it was a very smooth transfer, all confirmations and details were provided clearly and it was very reasonable. The Junior suite was spacious, the bathroom was surprisingly huge. For a 5* hotel the bathroom amenities were lacking a Dental kit and Vanity kit, I would suggest the hotel to add this as an option for guests. There was a guest requesting a Dental kit while I was checking in and the staff was unable to help them. The rooftop restaurant had a wonderful ambiance in the evening and a lovely view to match the food. The breakfast buffet also had attentive staff and a very good selection. Overall a very relaxed stay in an iconic hotel, I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

I booked a Junior Suite which is really worth paying for, not just for the extra space, but because of the view with the 2 small balconies (some rooms face indoor and I would not have liked that). Alfredo at reception is fantastic! The roof top casual restaurant is great for the superb view and the great friendly service, the food and margaritas were very good too! Jaime in the more upscale restaurant downstairs, is very professional and friendly, personal touch with his guests. The breakfast buffet is excellent and so is the service, very friendly, all the staff there.

We loved this historic building and its location right on a main square in Casco Viejo. The rooms were large and comfortable, and the breakfast in the restaurant each morning was amazing! The live piano music in the lobby during the afternoon was a lovely touch. The place feels luxurious and welcoming. The room had a working safe large enough for our laptop computer, which I appreciated. Although we did not try the rooftop pool, it looked nice. I hope to stay here again when I am back in Panama City.

The staff was stellar. In particular, Alanys, a server in the dining room for the breakfast buffet, was exceptional--very attentive without being cloying, patient with my elementary Spanish and always cheerful to see me. I'm sure the Hotel Central management recognize her potential and will nuture her career in hospitality. No less friendly and attentive were Josalyn and Walter. Great assets to the hotel staff!! In addition, Josue, my guia and driver did a wonderful job.

This historic hotel is right in the heart of Casco Viejo. We stayed for a week in Feb 2025, to get away from winter. The hotel is in excellent condition. The breakfast was outstanding. I really appreciated all the fresh fruit. Our room was large and comfortable, with 2 balconies. The bathroom was modern and clean. It was nice having a separate tub and shower. Most staff were friendly and helpful. The waiters at breakfast were a little surly at times.
