"Panama Hotel is a locally owned independent hotel in a rambling historic home on B-street. It's a quirky hotel, not just another Marriott or some other forgettable corporate brand, Instead, this is a structure with a real sense of place. I stayed in the "boudoir room" and really enjoyed it - lovely room with large bathroom, clean and well maintained, with my own little balcony to have my morning coffee on. I travel to San Rafael frequently and the chain hotels get pretty forgettable and empty after a while. Panama Hotel has a lot of character. The rooms was cosy and breezy with a view of gorgeous trees, the bed and bath linens were spotless and soft, the hot water plentiful, the water pressure strong, and a coffee pot in the room. I will definitely be back."

"The European buffet breakfast was excellent and economical. Rooms were super quiet. Great rooftop bar"

"Host was accurate, informative and responsive."

"We had a great time. Sherry was a great communicator. This spot is definitely a hidden oasis."

"We had a great stay at this home. It was very clean and had a charming old Hollywood California bungalow feel; high ceilings, beautiful character, and a warm, inviting atmosphere that felt straight out of films.The decor was tasteful without being cluttered, and the home had everything we needed. We especially appreciated the thoughtful touches like providing toilet paper, shampoo, granola bars and coffee, which made settling in easy without an immediate grocery run.The neighborhood is lovely, quiet and very walkable. It was easy to stroll to nearby restaurants and shops in San Rafael, which made the location especially convenient.It’s an older home, which really adds to its charm and character- just something to keep in mind that some features, like the bathroom and lighting, reflect that vintage style. It didn’t impact our stay at all, but helpful to know if you’re used to more modern setups.Overall, a cozy, character-filled place in a fantastic location. We’d definitely stay again."
