This was my first time staying at a Sofitel and I absolutely loved it! The staff's exceptional service made my stay memorable. They truly went above and beyond to ensure we were pleased with our stay. I had an issue with drawing a bath and since they couldn't provide that service, they gave us a bottle of champagne. I had also inquired about getting the best coffee. The day before departing, the staff presented me with a lovely package of different coffees and photos to memorialize the moment. I highly recommend this hotel and will stay there again when visiting Panama.

Words can never express how much it breaks my heart to leave this place. From the literal moment I arrived the staff have been attentive, accommodating and so warm that I felt like I was with family and not alone in a foreign country. Panama keeps finding ways to hold my heart and this time around? Sofitel Legend did the work ❤️
