It was like a breath of fresh air when we walked through the doors of San Felipe. The staff was welcoming and friendly, it was quiet and peaceful after a hectic day of travel. We went to their restaurant across the street where the food was delicious and Daniel was very attentive making sure we had everything we needed. We also went to the rooftop bar which was gorgeous- beautiful views of the city.

Excellent location in the old city walkable to lots of restaurants and shops. Very clean, large room and friendly staff. Good price for the room. The hotel in is 2 buildings right across from each other. There is a restaurant and also a rooftop bar. Nice robes in the bathroom but could use towel bars. Only draw back bathroom has frosted sliding door which lights up the whole room at night. Definitely recommend this property.

Was great. Very clean, nice area with lots of places to eat, etc. The only complaint I have was that there are are two different buildings to hotel is in. One is the one pictured in the picture, the other is across the street, and you have to walk through a bar to get to. Not the feel of walking through a hotel lobby. Not someone there to answer your questions, etc. (you walk across the street for that).

I had a wonderful stay at this place. The staff was incredibly attentive and polite. I highly recommend this property. It’s a bit small, though, and there’s no gym or swimming pool. But there’s a great restaurant on-site and a rooftop terrace with a nice view.

What a great find. Perfect central location for old town Panama. Spotless high end room. Wonderful friendly staff (Daniel et al). Good connections to outside businesses (eg tour agencies, restaurants etc). One of those hotels that make your "global forever list" that you keep in your back pocket for the next time you are in town. Speaking as someone who for the last 30 years has spent 100 hotel nights a year on the road, I would put this hotel in my all time top 20 and in my top 10 for city locations.

Excellent stay in Casco Viejo, perfectly located for us to explore by foot. Fun rooftop bar, nice modern decor. My only complaint is, umm.. well, what's wtih the see-through bathroom door?? Who wants this?? Anyway, that aside, we loved the stay, would definately suggest it to anyone, but beaware, whoever you stay with can watch you in the bathroom.

The hotel is two buildings, across the street from each other. Our rooms were in the building with the restaurant. The bar would play loud music until midnight. Our kids’ room had NO windows. No real amenities, so don’t forget your toiletries. Couldn’t wait to get out of there. However, Maria at the front desk was super helpful, even getting on the phone with Delta to sort out flight problems. Thank you, Maria!!

I enjoyed my stay at Hotel San Felipe. It is easy to see the property is very modern with great attention to detail from the moment you walk in the lobby. The location is phenomenal and the room was comfortable and inviting. We were pleasantly surprised that there was no discernible noise despite having a room with a balcony overlooking the main road. The only “negative” I can think of is the fact that parking is a block or two over. You go into it knowing it is Casco Viejo so that’s not necessarily surprising but after a full day of travel it is a little off-putting to have to first find parking and then walk back to the hotel. Overall I would readily recommend the hotel to anyone visiting the area and would stay there again myself.

Wall facing hotel room was only slightly frosted glass. Able to fairly readily see the other occupant sitting on the toilet or undressing if light in bathroom was on, even if lights were on in hotel room.

Nice place to stay

The front desk team was amazing!! Immediately opened doors for us, helped us pack suitcases to the room, answered all type of questions. They always had a smile on their faces. We were in room 202 which was more than comfortable for the two of us. Location was fabulous. We were able to walk everywhere in Casco Viejo and down to the light festival at the park on the water front. Felt very safe the entire time. Across the street was a rooftop restaurant with a 360 degree view of the area. They served delicious food and drinks. We would definitely return to this hotel again.

Staff was excellent. We arrived before check in, left our luggage & went out to explore the area. When we got back in the early evening our luggage was waiting for us in out room. They had also arranged for a 5am taxi for the next morning to take us to the airport & all went very well. Lovely room, excellent service. Oliver was very helpful providing a map of the area & detailed instructions to find what we were looking for.

El cuarto tenia la puerta del bano averiada, la tv no tenia canales, no habia perchas... hasta el punto que decidimos acortar nuestra estancia prevista de tres noches a una. El hotel se comprometio a devolverme las dos noches que no disfrutamos y aun estoy esperando el refund de expedia con el ok del hotel. Mala experiencia
