Yes a breaker panel can be located in a hall. In fact a lot of apartments have them in that location just as you come in the main door to the apartment.
The panel and breaker have to be of the same manufacturer. This way the breaker will fit into the panel. If the panel has a push in bus bar, the breaker must also be the type to accept the bus bar. If the bus bars in the panel are of the bolt in type then the breaker also has to be a bolt in breaker.
No, a Cutler Hammer will not work in a GE panel or vice versa.
You can. Using these size breakers in a 60 amp sub panel might be pushing the limit for breaking the sub panels feeder breaker. The breaker feeding the sub panel will have to be no bigger than 60 amps because of the main bus bar capacity of the sub panel. It would be better to install a 100 amp sub panel and then there would be a bit of a buffer and you will have the ability to add additional small load circuits.
A 100-A sub-panel would be fed from a 100-A breaker.

No, it is not safe to put a 50 amp breaker in a 60 amp panel. Breakers need to be sized to match the panel's capacity to prevent overheating and potential fire hazards. It is important to always use breakers that are compatible with the panel's amperage rating.
If you don't have a Westinghouse breaker, you should use a breaker that is compatible with your electrical panel. Consult the panel's specifications or a qualified electrician to determine the appropriate replacement breaker for your specific panel. Using an incompatible breaker can be dangerous and may violate electrical codes.
