Excellent hotel, with superb service by attentive, friendly and very efficient staff. Ideal location. I have been going to Panama City for several years and longed for this type of accomodation... Would love to keep it a secret only for myself and a happy few (only 3 rooms!) but still decided to go ahead and share my enthusiasm ! I... more

Incredibly beautifully restored house in the casco viejo in Panama City. Very few rooms, so you feel like you rented out the entire villa with staff. Neighborhood surrounding the casco viejo are a little rough so don't venture too far but the Casco Viejo as great restaurants (ego & narciso) and is in the mist of a renewal. Only minus:... more

Quality of accommodations and service was excellent. Charming old building that was expertly restored with lots of attention to detail. Staff was attentive and the best part was the location in historic district which made exploring Casco Viejo a breeze. more

My husband and I stayed at the CH for 4 nights in the upper suite- bedroom, library with day bed and shower and foyer. The feel of the suite was absolutely tropical with a feeling of calm and serentiy. Super clean. The staff, all local women, do a fabulous job tending to the property and are there to make and... more

We loved everything about the Canal House from the location to the staff to the house itself. Thelma was invaluable in helping us plan our days and making recommendations about tours and restaurants. We would highly recommend the Canal House. more
