Hotel La Compañía, The Unbound Collection by Hyatt rises in Panama City’s historic district—a reimagined 18th-century Jesuit church turned refined urban sanctuary.

Set in the heart of Casco Viejo, Panama City’s UNESCO World Heritage site, Hotel La Compañía offers immediate access to cobblestone streets, colonial architecture, and a vibrant cultural scene. Hotel La Compañía is more than a hotel — it is a living museum. Steeped in Panama’s layered history, the property was meticulously restored by master craftsmen, architects and designers who revived original wood, stone and tiles, seamlessly integrating them with sleek contemporary finishes.

The hotel features 88 guestrooms and suites, each tailored to echo the building’s heritage through textured plaster walls, vaulted ceilings, and custom woodwork. Natural light filters through stained-glass windows and restored arches, framing a palette of muted tones and tactile fabrics. Each of the hotel’s wings reflects a distinct cultural influence — Spanish Colonial, French Belle Époque, and American Beaux-Arts — pays homage to the eras that shaped Panama’s identity. Suites include terraces overlooking Panama’s skyline or internal courtyards, blending intimacy with a sense of spaciousness rarely found in historic properties.

Culinary experiences of the highest caliber await at Hotel La Compañía, with five signature restaurants and two bars that bring Panama’s cultural heritage to the table.. Restaurante Matiz serves inventive Panamanian cuisine that highlights local ingredients with a modern touch, all set within the hotel’s historic stone walls. The eclectic American Bazaar presents classic American favorites, while Luigi’s celebrates rustic Italian tradition. To end the day, the rooftop bar Capella invites guests to take in panoramic city views with signature cocktails and lively conversation. For a more intimate setting, the Bar de la Compañía offers expertly crafted cocktails beneath vaulted arches—an atmospheric spot to unwind and savor the city’s vibrant spirit.

While the hotel does not feature a traditional spa or fitness center, wellness is woven through its tranquil courtyards and serene ambience. The calm of the restored cloisters offers a natural retreat for reflection or reading, while nearby Casco Viejo provides ample opportunity for walking tours and outdoor exploration to keep the body engaged.

As the sun sets behind the city skyline and filters through the stained glass, Hotel La Compañía invites you to slow down and absorb the stories embedded in every stone and shadow—transforming what could be a simple stay into a journey through time itself.
