The Panamera, a Waldorf Astoria hotel expected to open in Panama City later this year, will be called the Waldorf Astoria Panama.
Hilton Worldwide said it changed the name of the 248-room hotel to more closely identify it with the Waldorf Astoria brand.
“Placing the brand prominently at the front of the hotel name reinforces our commitment to deliver unparalleled service and quality at this first Waldorf Astoria hotel in Latin America,” said Danny Hughes, senior vice president of Hilton Worldwide’s Caribbean, Mexico and Latin America operations.
