TRAVEL | GRACE PANAMA HOTEL
I just
arrived back in Berlin. I'm already packing my suitcases again but first of all
I want to take you back on my travel to Panama. I arrived a little ahead of the
tough schedule with the tourism board and also had the chance to discover some
of the hotels in Panama. One was the Grace Panama..
I had a fantastic
time in Panama. I was really happy to stay with Grace Panama, as the hotel
group is an international well known hotel company, which is promoting a great
service and hospitality in many countries all over the world.
The Grace Panama
is a small luxury hotel, located in the center of Panama. Furnitured with a
huge terrace, including a pool in the higher levels, guests will be able to
enjoy a view above the Panamanian skyline, which is an impressive spectacle.
After the
long flight to Panama I simply couldn't wait to arrive at the hotel and have a
rest. A unique tradition of the Grace Panama is to welcome each guest with a complimentary
glass of champagne or water. The staff was immediately helpful to guide us with
our luggage to the room. The check in was smooth and the staff spoke proper English,
which is often an issue within Latin America.
Our room
was extremely big, featuring a kind of a balcony. More comparable with the sky
deck in Chicago, but extremely impressive and providing an unbelievable view, especially
by night. I also had a small shooting at this place, as it was extremely
beautiful with the golden glass reflections and the urban background of all the
skyscrapers in the back.
On our
first evening we also went downstairs to the lobby level, where the hotel owned
restaurant is located. I was so happy as my vegan nutrition and food restrictions
haven't been a matter for the kitchen. The food arrived very fast. I personally
adored the fresh tomato soup. I like my dishes minimalistic and easy, with
natural and high quality ingredients, which was enjoyable with every spoon. For
the main dish I had a vegan risotto.
As it was
already very late in the evening we went upstairs back to the room for a few
hours of sleep. Each of us had their own bed. The hotel is offering a menu of
pillows to decide of. The bed is full with pillows and it fell asleep
immediately. When I woke up the next morning I was still in a jetlag but felt
much more relieved.
The first
and best thing I could have thought about was breakfast. I have to add a note
to this, as the breakfast was more struggling for me as a vegan, still, for
vegetarians there has been a bigger selection. I ended up with fresh fruits
which was suitable for me, too. The breakfast also covers an additional omelet
station, which is a complimentary feature.
I truly
wish I had a longer stay at the Grace Panama Hotel. It is definitely a good
place to stay with a decent pricing and a lot of comfort.
