Every major hotel chain seems to be opening doors in Panama City, Panama so how do you choose the best one?

I’ve come up an extremely narrowed down list of the best hostels and hotels in Panama City and divided them into three categories (budget hostels, mid-priced, and luxury) with four places to stay in each category. I also include where you can find short-term apartment rentals in Panama City.

It was extremely hard to narrow down this list, and I’ve based it on location, value, amenities, and originality. For the most part, I have tried to stay away from the big name sterile hotels to include places where you can have a unique and memorable experience in Panama City.

Here are my top picks of where to stay in Panama City no matter what your budget is. 

 

Budget Hostels

Magnolia Inn 

This is a luxury hostel and hotel located in the heart of Casco Viejo and it’s best for if you want an affordable and nice hostel to stay in Casco Viejo without a party atmosphere. Each bed even has its own plug and wall lamp!

JW Marriott

This is the most beautiful and luxurious swimming area in Panama City. There’s plenty of seating, an infinity pool with unobstructed views of the ocean (you really forget you’re in the middle of a city), and great cocktails & service. However, if your goal is to get tan during your trip you might be a little let down because the sun only hits the pool in the morning hours and then gets blocked by the surrounding buildings. Overall, if you’re looking for an urban oasis to unwind and relax, the swimming pool at JW Marriott will impress you.

Sortis

The Sortis is one of the newest hotels to open in Panama City and the pool area they have created is simply beautiful. It’s right in the middle of Panama City with 360-degree views of the city skyline. The location is also superb! You are just a few blocks away from the new luxury SOHO mall, calle 50, the Via Argentina metro stop, and several other key spots in Panama City.
