Description

Canal House is elegant, tropical and relaxed, with just the right amount of sophistication. Our guests have described us as an up-scale bed and breakfast, a city villa and a luxury guesthouse, and really, all of those labels fit. What Canal House is not is a luxury hotel, simply because having just three rooms puts some limits on the kinds of amenities and services that can be offered.

The house was built around 1893 by one of Panama's founding fathers, Federico Boyd. The house is nearly five thousand square feet, with three bedrooms, a library and a large living-dining room. If you need to entertain guests while you are in Panama, Canal House's main floor can host formal dinners of up to fourteen guests and cocktail receptions for up to thirty.

We are located in Casco Viejo, a UNESCO designated world heritage site, adjacent to the newly restored Panama Canal Museum and steps from the City's best restaurants, cafes and cultural institutions. Casco Viejo is walking distance from all of the key government ministries and equidistant from both the banking center and the Panama Canal (less than ten minutes to each) making the hotel an ideal base for business travelers.
