Hotel Fort Young Hotel

Victoria Street, Roseau, Dominica –

Lock in a great price for Fort Young Hotel – rated 8.2 by recent guests!

to get started.

The location is excellent - you have a front-row seat of the ocean and a chance to see the cruise ships docking (and leaving!). The staff were attentive, especially the security staff who helped us find space to park our car in the rather small car-park a few times. The restaurant has a good selection of choices for vegans and vegetarians. The bar is also very good and there is a dive shop located on the premises.

Excellent hotel. most beautiful location and beautifully designed hotel. Friendly staff addressing you by your name always. Delicious food at the on site restaurant.

Brigette, Trinidad and Tobago

The hotel informed me of ongoing construction, however, when I arrived I really couldn't tell there was construction. They did a great job isolating that from the guests. The staff was wonderful and very pleasant to talk to. The room was very spacious and comfortable.

N, United States of America

Locación and view, and some of the staff that I will give 5 stars for their attention.

Carlos, United States of America

The location was excellent close to all govt offices

R, United Arab Emirates

Food was amazing. The tours that the hotel setup for us were great. The tour guides were super helpful and awesome. The staff was always friendly and answered any questions we had regarding different places/activities around Dominica.

Location, view on the bay, spacious room with balcony (if you choose sea-view) Fort Young is one of the best hotels you can find in Roseau. It is centrally located with an amazing view from the pool and from any room with balcony and sea-view. The staff was helpful, friendly and responsive. The restaurant is very good with sea-view terrace, but a bit expensive. In alternative you can order good and cheaper food at the bar. If you want a quiet stay, ask for a room overlooking the ocean. The other rooms, especially rooms with 500 numbers, might be noisy and too close to the bar. Service is good, but slow (as almost anywhere in the Caribbean). Overall, Fort Young is an excellent hotel in an optimal location.

The staff and location are the best. All the staff was friendly and helpful. They were amazing especially when they were still recovering from Hurrican Maria. Although some of the facilities were not available, such as the gym and some of the walkway were closed due to construction, they tried their best. Keep in mind though, they live on island time and lifestyle, which is more laid back, don't hustle, leave room for your schedule. The location is perfect. It may be a bit confusing due to the construction and the roadblock for the cruise ship. But it is a perfect location for everything and every local knows Fort Young.

We were able to enjoy the beautiful sunsets from the terrace on our room. We enjoyed using the pool, and the Jacuzzi with views of the mountains across the bay. The service and quality in the restaurants were very good, and the hotel helped plan high quality excusions around the beautiful island. The hotel is located right in the centre of Roseau making it easy to explore this interesting and friendly Caribbean capital.

An Inside Look at Fort Young Hotel

This hotel was built in 1964 within an actual British Fort and named after Colonel Young who was in command of the fort in 1771. In 1979 after the devastation of Hurricane David, the fort rooms, which was part of the original structure was repaired along with the addition of our Oceanfront rooms. The original stone walls and restored cannons are on site if u wish to take a walk back into history. Its a one of a kind hotel with friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere. Welcome to Fort Young Hotel. In efforts to deliver a quality product to our guest, we are constantly looking at ways to improve. In light of this, through October 2018, we will be undergoing renovation in respective areas. During this time, there will be increased noise from construction work between the hours of 8:00am to 5:00pm. In lieu of the spa, in-room massages are available by appointment. The gym will reopen January 2019 and yoga sessions will be offered from April 10, 2018 onward. The Palisades Restaurant will tentatively reopen June 2018. The bar and room-service are available. Thank you for your understanding.

We had a number of maintenance issues during our stay with the sink and bath which we had to raise twice before anyone came to fix it. It is a nice hotel but is overpriced when compared to other hotels in Dominica.
