Company info

Our Story What began in 2010 as a small, family-owned dream has grown into a space where travelers from all over the world come together. In 2014, we proudly re-inaugurated our business, a moment made even more special as Panama celebrated the 100th anniversary of the opening of the Panama Canal, marked in 1914 by the historic passage of the USS Ancon. Much like the Canal forever changed the way the world connects, our vision was to create a place where cultures could meet, friendships could begin, and every guest could feel at home. But this dream would never have become a reality without the dedication of the incredible people who stand behind it. Our reception team, housekeepers, and maintenance staff have worked tirelessly; late nights, early mornings, and everything in between, to make sure every corner of this house is ready to welcome you. They are the true heartbeat of our hostal, and we are deeply grateful for their commitment and care. And finally, to our guests, thank you. Your smiles, your stories, and your trust inspire us every single day. We are honored to be a small part of your journey.
