Reviews and Ratings
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious with modern bathrooms and good air conditioning, although the lack of an outside view was a small downside. The service, from the doorman to the front desk, was top-notch, even though there was a mix-up with a request initially. The location in the historical center of Santo Domingo was perfect for exploring the Colonial Zone, and the dining experience was excellent with delicious local seafood. The facilities were great, making my stay comfortable and convenient.
The hotel has an old-world atmosphere with rooms on the stairway offering a king-size bed and junior tubs. The service was initially confusing but eventually met my expectations. Located in the historical center of Santo Domingo, the hotel provided a unique experience. Dining was included and offered a steaming wok of prawns. The facilities were adequate with a charming touch.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although clean and comfortable with a king size bed and aged colonial style, lacked views outside. The service had its ups and downs, with some confusion over requests but ultimately responsive from the doorman to the front desk. The location, while central in the historical center of Santo Domingo, posed challenges for parking. The dining experience, featuring creative salads, was inconsistent. Despite some drawbacks, the facilities were adequate.
