The hotel will be part of a mixed-use project that will include two towers above a podium. One of the towers will house the hotel and up to 150 unbranded residential condominiums on the floors above the hotel. The second tower will house offices.

“We are thrilled to introduce our popular Renaissance brand to Panama and to be expanding our long relationship with Hotel Properties of Panama, which also owns the Panama Marriott and is currently expanding that hotel to 376 rooms,” said Ed Fuller, president & managing director of international lodging for Marriott International. “The economic outlook of Panama is strong and the hotel industry is booming here. This new Renaissance hotel will enable us to offer guests an exciting new choice in lodging.”

Meanwhile, Caribe Hospitality plans to open the 100-unit Residence Inn Panama in 2010 for extended stay travelers. Final agreements on both the Courtyard by Marriott Panama and the Residence Inn Panama are expected to be executed within the next 60 days.
