There was construction going on, and so there were lots noses coming through the walls all the time- vibrantion, clanging, buzzing.... everything is very compact, and i wish there were more spaces in which to relax. Also, lighting was odd. I needed to do some work? And i couldn't find anywhere to get enough light when the weather kept me inside. It's beautiful, and the staff and food were excellent, but this are the areas for improvement
The property looks exactly like the pictures. The Rooms were a bit smaller than I imagined. The lunch menu needs to be a bit more versatile and didn’t like the options at all. However this place is 10/10 for me, highly recommend.
Loved the place. Staff attentive. Rest is downstairs and is amazing. Hard to sleep. Rest opens early for breakfast and you can hear the music and movements.
An exceptional property and a restaurant that is not to be missed.
The shining diamond of the experience for us was the staff. Anticipatory services at every opportunity.
If you have the opportunity to book this property, book it….then book a dinner reservation at Kaandela.
We stayed for one of the last nights of our honeymoon. We loved it so much that we wanted to extend our stay but unfortunately it was fully booked!
The hotel itself is beautifully decorated, the staff are so friendly and welcoming from checkin and at breakfast and they always remembered our names.
The location cannot be beaten for Casco Viejo (I know because we had to stay elsewhere afterwards). It's walkable to restaurants, bars, churches, sites and the Mercado de Mariscos.
We loved it here!
The Amarla is a beautiful property. Gina at the front desk was very helpful. Also, we appreciated the man who carried our bags 6 blocks on the night of our arrival due to roadblocks because of the holiday. I highly recommend - just request room not directly in sun because air conditioner is a little weak. Jenny in the dining room was wonderful and breakfast was absolutely delicious.

We only had a couple of nights here before we flew home from Panama. The Amarla is a very chic little hotel, well situated in Casco Viejo lovely rooms and decor throughout. Angel was at reception while we were there, he was very friendly and very helpful. Would definitely stay here again.
They are a very cute little boutique hotel in the heart of Casco Viejo. If you are looking for a charming little home feel, soak in the historic area with the classic balconies the shutters and brick walls filled with local and carefully selected art and decoration with the touch of luxury, look no further!
it was clean and centrally located to go out and get dinner and drinks. Beds and pillows were clean and nice, which I appreciated. Water is hot

The room was extremely noisy as was above their restaurant .No lounge area to sit so confimed to very small dark room .Kaandala is the restaurant where service was slow and one main course arrived cold.This hotel is definitely not worthy of it’s proce.
Amarlanis a beautiful, spotless, boutique hotel. The staff is amazingly friendly and genuinely make you feel at home. My room was quite small, but complete with everything i needed. I would recommend it to a friend looking for a place to stay in Casco Viejo!
