Character and identity

The Bristol Panama sits in the thick of Panama City's banking district, occupying two towers that have hosted business travellers and well-heeled visitors since 1997. The mood is quietly polished rather than showy, with Panamanian paintings lining the corridors and local touches threaded through the design, spa and dining. Salsipuedes works six culinary influences into an eclectic menu (the 48-hour Angus short rib and yellowtail tuna ceviche Nikkei are standouts), while the redesigned B Bar leans Mediterranean with tapas and a strong Negroni list. The 25th-floor spa, with Pacific and Metropolitan Park views, anchors the wellness offer. Service is personalised and unhurried.

Who's it for

Best for:
Business travellers who need a calm, well-located base in the banking district, and design-aware couples who appreciate art-filled public spaces, a serious spa (the Vichy rain massage and couples' five-headed shower are the signatures) and grown-up dining without resort theatrics. Coffee lovers will enjoy the Cruce tasting corner.

Should look elsewhere:
Families chasing a beach or kids' programme, and anyone wanting a buzzy boutique scene or Casco Viejo's heritage atmosphere on the doorstep. The lap pool overlooks Balboa Avenue rather than offering a true resort setting, and the building shares its towers with private residences.

Bottom line

What sets this hotel apart is how quiet and composed it feels despite sitting in Panama City's busiest commercial district: double-glazed windows seal out the street, and the art-led interiors give it a gallery hush. Book it if you're in town for work or a city-focused stay, request a higher floor for the Pacific views, and build in time for the 25th-floor spa.
