CHATEAU XELLO: Tired of hanging out in a less than savory neighborhood when you visit Panama City, all because the moderately priced hotels in El Cangrejo are full? I hear that a lot from friends who were late reserving rooms in the city; they just cannot find one.
This week I visited with the Brokke family of Chateau Xello. Tucked away in the tranquil upper middle class residential neighborhood of El Carmen, very close to downtown, within walking distance of Via Espana and Price Smart.
Twenty clean rooms (most having some kitchen facilities) in 2 adjoining homes, a lovely pool and thatched gazebo in the back and access to a park. Air conditioning, breakfast, internet service, cable TV, telephone and hot water included. The Brokke family can also assist with taxis and tours.
Nightly, weekly or monthly rentals available. Rates are from $50 per night for a single, to $60 for a double. Rates will go up next month, just a little I was told. Some accomodations are larger rooms or suite apartments so ask what they have to offer for your requested dates. Get good directions because there is no sign on the building. Email them or call for rates. info@lechateaudexello.com, www.lechateaudexello.com Tel: 380-0726, 6609-4287
