Reasons to stay at the Canopy Bed and Breakfast. 1) The neighborhood is historical and the homes are lovely as they date back to the times when the US had its dominant presence in the area. 2) The B&B is a much more affordable option for birders (as compared to its sister property, Canopy Tower) 3) There's a bus stop...

Wonderful place in Gamboa -- clean, quiet, with nice common room for evening activities. Great birdwatching at their feeders and nearby. Gamboa doesn't have a lot of amenities which is okay, but the downside was that there weren't restaurants nearby except for the large resort and we weren't informed that we should bring food, which was challenging since we stayed...

A three-night stay in February 2012 left us with excellent memories of a very clean, comfortable, tastefully decorated and hospitable establishment. The town of Gamboa is delightful and perfect for getting acquainted with the abundant and colourful wildlife – where else can you stroll along a pretty street in the evening and enjoy the sight of crested guan and green...

We really enjoyed our stay here. It's a beautifully renovated B&B with very nice staff (who spoke little English but were as helpful as could be). The "backyard birding" was amazing - chacalacas, parakeets, motmots, several tanagers, red-crowned woodpeckers, saltators, hummingbirds right at the birdfeeder. We arranged to have dinner 2 nights out of 3, and it was well worth... More

We decided to stay at the canopy b&b because of its proximity to Soberania National Park, and specifically the Pipeline Road trail. It turned out to be a very convenient location for this purpose. The b&b itself is lovely: it is a 3-storey Canal Zone house, with three guest rooms on the top floor, common areas on the second floor... More

We booked 6 nights at the Canopy B&B and ended up extending our stay. The place is comfortable, the staff very pleasant, and getting to Pipeline Rd so simple we went every day after an early breakfast. We are not fond of tours but were able to get useful information from other like minded travelers staying here. While not absolutely... More

The B&B is located in a lovely canal zone house that is beautifully furnished and very welcoming. The staff was very helpful and kind. Rooms were clean and tidy, but the common area is the most charming. There are birdfeeders in the back yard and the B&B mainly hosts birders. We did not eat meals other than breakfast at the... More

Gamboa is outside of Panama City where the canal administrators used to live. The houses are funky early 20th century American style with tin roofs and screened in porches. They have US style backyards that swarm with hummingbirds, toucans and agoutis! It's nice to walk around the streets there, but watch out for dogs! Gamboa is at least and hour... More

We came on a whim (USD 20 taxi from Albrook bus terminal for 2 people) to find another place booked up and were directed towards this amazing house across the street - the staff here were very welcoming and friendly and gave us a room within minutes! the rooms are very clean, cute and have AC and comfy towels/a great...
