The Sofitel Legend Casco Viejo is a beautiful hotel nicely located in the old section of Panama City. The bars and restaurants on site are excellent with delicious offerings. The staff is friendly and responsive. The pool and lounges are inviting with poolside service for drinks and food. The fitness room is well-equipped. Our stay here was wonderful.

Great historic hotel in a great location
Sofitel transformed a century old private club right on the ocean into a beautiful hotel. Everything about it is perfect. The rooms. The staff. The restaurants. Definitely worth visiting. And re-visiting.
