American Trade Hotel was the perfect hotel for exploring Casa Viego. It was in a beautiful square right in the middle of old town. The staff were all super polite and helpful. The property was beautifully decorated. I especially loved the Spanish tile and all of the lovely potted plants. The library was so pretty and had so many books! The pool was being remodeled, so it was disappointing we weren’t able to use it. Our room had all the comforts of home. Big pillows and a super comfy bed. Housekeeping was great and we loved the turn down service. Our room was in the corner on the fourth floor. The lights from the church across the street were quite bright in the middle of the night. The church bells ring every half hour and hour. Personally, it did not bother us, but it might others. Bring earplugs, the nightlife noise can get a bit loud, especially on a Saturday night.

Great hotel and location, in the center of Casco Viejo. Surrounded by amazing restaurants and bars. All of them at walking distance from the hotel. The people working there were very nice an attentive. The only con is the bell ringing of the church right next to the hotel. It starts at 6:00 am everyday, everything else is awesome.

This was my second stay at the property. I gave them a second chance. The property is beautiful and has lots of character . My issue this time was the restaurant closing at 6:30 , and room service was not available. It was an inconvenience to have to leave the property. I also did not have hot water , but I was given a new room . Going forward I will just stick with the Sofitel Panamá hotel

Unfortunately badly run, there are many better options in the area at the same price. It may have been great at some stage but not anymore. Sofitel and La Capagne outshine this by 3 stars!

I would stay here again. This is a great hotel in a wonderful location. The staff is excellent. I loved thr bathroom rain shower. The food in the dining room is reasonably priced and delicious. The club attached to the hotel is very intimate and we saw a great show. Good food and drinks too. The pool is a wading pool and has a couple of missng tiles. The church bells across the street ring from 630am to sround 10pm. Casco Viejo is a great place to stay. It was like the New Orleans French Quarter but cleaner and without Bourbon street.
