A great hotel in the heart of Casco Viejo
Comfortable and a great location. Lots of opportunities around for shopping, night life, and food. And yet not terribly noisy.

They take care of you, even if circumstances off
Plumbing issues meant I was relocated to a nearby room that seemed like a B&B just a few blocks away. Rain fell into the small pool of the B&B building. But the room was fabulous!

The most incredible part of staying here was the staff. Everyone was so friendly, helpful, and accommodating. I can’t emphasize enough how clear it was that they genuinely wanted us to have a pleasant stay. I also had the chance to experience three different rooms because I was part of a group over multiple days, and each room was clean and comfortable — AC and hot water and comfy beds (and again, the staff proactively noticed our reservations were a little complicated and went above and beyond to help us simplify them). We had easy and safe access to everything we wanted or needed (dining, shopping, sightseeing), and we were able to use the spacious gathering space for group meetings or personal time. I would definitely return here and recommend it to friends and family.

Great location, convenient, close to restaurants, shops and so easy to get around - adorable boutique hotel - I had a great stay at Magnolia- excellent for the price! Staff is helpful and accommodating and speaks english fluently- They have a hostel too so its great if you need to leave bags and kill time after check out. I stayed in the king suite (up the 4 flights of stairs) but it was fine! the view is beautiful- the room was private and comfortable with A/C and a coffee maker. It has a noise machine which I used since I read a bunch of reviews about noise issues but I had no problems with outside noise.. I am a solo female traveler and felt completely safe in the area. Walkable to everything in Casco Viejo (so many restaurants and stores and the architecture is breathtaking!) I took an uber to the canal one day which was only $7 and everyone is helpful and friendly. Highly recommend taking the free tour of Casco Viejo. I would absolutely stay here again!

Comfortable and well located
We stayed in room 19 on the 2nd floor. It was a good size and very comfortable. The aircon was effective. The hotel has a great kitchen and guests’ lounge where you can prepare your meals if you wish. The location was perfect, close to everything we wanted to see and do. The only downside was having to carry our bags up 2 flights of stairs, but we knew that when we booked.

Had a wonderful 4-night stay at the Magnolia. My reservations were made on their website, without any difficulties, and my room was waiting for me. The property is located in the middle of the Caso Veijo area - very similar to the French Qtr. in NOLA. Great restaurants, bars and tourist gift shops are all over. The Panama Canal Museum, French Point and a couple of old churches are all within a very easy walk. All of my dinners were excellent and within a three-block walk from the hotel. I recommend staying here and would do so in the future
