We stayed at La Estancia for our first night in Panama. While a bit hard to find even with directions (we got a bit lost which is no fun in Panama) - the hotel itself was lovely and the perfect stopover hotel for us to start our trip. The rooms were very clean and comfortable with air conditioning to rescue... more

We not only stayed in La Estancia for 10 days but also used their travel service. Although there were a few glitches in the latter, everything turned out better than we expected and I would highly recommend using both the planning services and the hotel. The more we returned to La Estancia from outings to various places around Panama the... more

We made our reservation online after reading reviews on the Trip Adviser. It sounded like the kind of place we would be comfortable at and it was just that. Not needing all the amenities that many expensive establishments offer, this B&B suited us perfectly. The whole place is very clean and quiet. There is a very nice walk to the... more

Central to almost everything in Panama City -- only a several Balboa (dollar) cab ride, we will stay there again when we go back to Panama. Not fancy and there may be no TV, but watching the animals and listening to the birds more than compensated. A very reasonably priced place, we also booked all our tours thru La Estancia.... more

Having spent a couple of nights at the begining of my trip in The Radisson, Panama City....I've booked to go back to La Estancia again this year both at the begining... more

I spent some nights here in a suite and some in a normal room. It was OK, but I do think La Estanica is over-rated. It is clean, but the suite in particular was not well maintained (it had loads of cutlery missing, half the lights didn't work, and it was a bit scruffy: it obviously hadn't been painted in... more

We stayed at this B&B in January 2008. After our flight it was a little hard to find - located on Ancon Hill above the canal's Administration Building. But, it was worth; it was near the canal, Bridge of the Americas (for trips to the interior to Panama), trips to Sobernia and Gamboa area, and Albrook. My wife's mother's family... more

This B&B is wonderful. Whilst this is not the most luxurious place you will ever stay in, this B&B is friendly, cheap and interesting and is well worth a stay. The accommodation is very comfortable and clean and the staff are simply excellent. The rooms/bathrooms are great (some the balcony) and the B&B is located in a lovely location within... more

Just came back from Panama last week. Spent 4 nights at La Estancia, then another two after a quick trip to El Valle de Anton. We cant praise the staff enough for their help and advice. If we were to go again we would stay there, but not select a room with it's own balcony as we didn't use it... more
