recently stayed at Hotel San Felipe and had a really pleasant experience. The location is great—close to the action in Casco Viejo and just a short ride from other key areas in the city. It made exploring Panama City super convenient. The staff was friendly and welcoming, always ready to help with anything I needed. My room was clean, the air conditioning worked well (a must in Panama’s heat), and I appreciated the simple, cozy vibe. The building itself has character, and I loved the local charm that gave it a more authentic feel than some of the bigger chain hotels.
