An exceptional property and a restaurant that is not to be missed. The shining diamond of the experience for us was the staff. Anticipatory services at every opportunity. If you have the opportunity to book this property, book it….then book a dinner reservation at Kaandela.

Cozy hotel, comfortable with friendly staff. However, the room cleanliness could be improved considering the hotel's standard. Very good breakfast, delicious! There is no TV in the room, but this didn't affect us, as we always prefer to explore the city.

I was thrilled to stay at the Amarla. The communication between the staff and me before my arrival (discussing tours and other details) was more than outstanding. Never have I received such communication from a hotel. Special shout out to Osmar, who kept me in the loop and Ginelva, who was at the front desk when we checked in. She made sure we got settled in, had dinner, and assured us coffee and a box meal the morning we had a 6am tour. The room was comfortable and really, really quiet. The hotel offered the best sleep I've had in six months! The staff in the on-site restaurant was also very attentive : Yenny and Luis were exceptionally attentive. And the food was delicious, we ate dinner the first night at the hotel and every day for breakfast. When I return to Panama I will definitely start at the Amarla again.

Lovely boutique property in the heart of Casco Viejo. Centrally located within the Casco, we could walk everywhere. Service was lovely and their restaurant in the main level was lovely too. Our room was a good size and it had lovely amenities. Super nice decor and very clean. There was an elevator to get to the third floor where our room was which was nice and our room had AC.
