We only had a couple of nights here before we flew home from Panama. The Amarla is a very chic little hotel, well situated in Casco Viejo lovely rooms and decor throughout. Angel was at reception while we were there, he was very friendly and very helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

Paul, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The property looks exactly like the pictures. The Rooms were a bit smaller than I imagined. The lunch menu needs to be a bit more versatile and didn’t like the options at all. However this place is 10/10 for me, highly recommend.

Service was friendly and responsive. Rooms are artfully decorated and quiet. Dining next door was a wonderful experience.

8/10 Good

There was construction going on, and so there were lots noses coming through the walls all the time- vibrantion, clanging, buzzing.... everything is very compact, and i wish there were more spaces in which to relax. Also, lighting was odd. I needed to do some work? And i couldn't find anywhere to get enough light when the weather kept me inside. It's beautiful, and the staff and food were excellent, but this are the areas for improvement

Perfect way to end our honeymoon!

We stayed for one of the last nights of our honeymoon. We loved it so much that we wanted to extend our stay but unfortunately it was fully booked! The hotel itself is beautifully decorated, the staff are so friendly and welcoming from checkin and at breakfast and they always remembered our names. The location cannot be beaten for Casco Viejo (I know because we had to stay elsewhere afterwards). It's walkable to restaurants, bars, churches, sites and the Mercado de Mariscos. We loved it here!

Wonderful Boutique Hotel

Amarlanis a beautiful, spotless, boutique hotel. The staff is amazingly friendly and genuinely make you feel at home. My room was quite small, but complete with everything i needed. I would recommend it to a friend looking for a place to stay in Casco Viejo!
Paul, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The Amarla is a beautiful property. Gina at the front desk was very helpful. Also, we appreciated the man who carried our bags 6 blocks on the night of our arrival due to roadblocks because of the holiday. I highly recommend - just request room not directly in sun because air conditioner is a little weak. Jenny in the dining room was wonderful and breakfast was absolutely delicious.
Sharon Lee, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Superb little Boutique hotel in the center of the Casco Viejo, which also features one of the best restaurants I encountered in Panama, and beyond. The area offers shops, sights, museums, access to the coast, and many good restaurants in all price ranges. Highly recommendable !!!
