W Panama [Master Thread] NOW OPEN
After several delays, W Panama in Panama City, Panama, is now listed with a February 15, 2018 opening date and accepting reservations:
W Panama The earliest available reservation is March 1 at $180/night. It’s unclear if the hotel is sold out from Feb. 15 to March 1 or if there’s been a further delay until March 1. (The latter is my guess.) Either way, it appears the opening is imminent, as reservations are being accepted for dates less than a month into the future. I’ll be in Panama again on March 1 and plan to check it out. |
Officially open. Marriott press release:
Panamania: W Debuts in Central America with Opening of W Panama | Marriott News Center Excerpt: "Located in one of the most cosmopolitan capitals in the region, Panama City, the new hotel towers above the heart of the business district within the ultra-modern, 50-floor Evolution Tower on Calle 50....The hotel is near Uruguay Street, known as the “Zona Rosa” of Panama, home to a bustling scene of trendy restaurants and nightclubs....Guests enter W Panama on the 15th floor of the striking new skyscraper and are immediately greeted by playfully modern design. W Panama transforms the industrial look of shipping containers, similar in look to those often found along the Panama Canal, with original graffiti painted by Diablos Rojos-inspired artist, Oscar Melgar. Throughout the hotel, five containers become destinations themselves, setting the scene for connecting and mingling. The shipping containers can be found in the hotel’s Living Room (the brand’s take on the traditional hotel lobby), the expansive, 6,835-square-foot WET Deck (pool deck) and Cargo, the destination bar housed within its own shipping container which serves up handcrafted cocktails year-round....With 203 guest rooms including 28 gorgeous suites, many featuring sweeping views of the nearby bay and Canal..."

Got upgraded to a Marvelous Suite. Staff are great. Platinum breakfast is the full buffet in the restaurant with a nice view of the city. Didn’t use the pool as it has been raining quite a lot. Good restaurant choices in the area in all budget ranges. |
Not sure if this is being monitored by the Starwood lurker anymore but this hotel has not been coded by the SPG Amex as a Marriott property yet. Still waiting for the bonus points on this one for the credit card charge. |

Thanks! Email sent. This happened before when the W Bogota openned and was never updated on the Starwood list of hotels that AMEX holds so I suspect it is the same issue. |
