Hotel Las Américas Golden Tower

The acclaimed Uruguayan architect Carlos Ott envisioned a swirling 30-story sweep of a building to hold Hotel Las Américas Golden Tower Panamá. And when it opened in 2016, the hotel literally gave Panama City’s financial district a new heart of gold.

Guests luxuriate in 285 ultramodern lodgings—plus a lavish spa with the only flotarium and hammam in Panama City, its only heated indoor pool, and a state-of-the-art fitness center. The hotel also features the city’s largest executive lounge, business center, and 14,144 square feet of meeting space, including a ballroom with capacity for 460 people.

Dining starts with MON Cocinas del Mundo, a collection of gastronomic options on the ground floor; an international restaurant on the fifth floor; and Ramon Freixa, a world-class tasting experience on the twenty-ninth floor.
