Lock in a great price for Casas del XVI Boutique Hotel – rated 9.1 by recent guests!

to get started.

The hotel was absolutely stunning and the property was divided into various houses, each with their own character and charm. Every item was hand selected with great attention for care with from local artists and designers. It was a magical place with the feeling of being outside the city. All the casas had their own pool and onsite butler. The staff were extremely hospitable and friendly. I would definitely return, and if I were traveling with a family, or a group of people, I would highly recommend renting one of the casas. I learned that Oscar de La Renta lived in one of the houses before it became a hotel. Owner by Small Luxury Hotels of the world. Thankt you for a wonderful stay!

Service. Can only be described with one word :excellent!!

Andrea, Mexico

Very cute, boutique hotel. We went to a smaller property that was very private with a small dipping pool, cute dining room and patio for breakfast, and a HUGE bathroom. It was located close to everything in the Colonial Zone. The staff was fantastic, we got an iPhone to contact our butler or concierge at anytime from anywhere in town. They helped us with dinner reservations and recommendations for the area. Well worth the money!

We liked the decor. The room was large. The bed was comfortable.

Xanxo, Argentina

Very charming collection of old colonial houses. Whilst there we visited a number of hotels for drinks etc and this is by far the best place to stay in SD.

Jose, Italy

We enjoyed our stay very much in this classy boutique hotel, with very tasteful decorations. We felt at home in the privacy of the hotel and we appreciated the very personal service. Our room was wonderful and the breakfast was a delight. Perfect location in a quiet part of the historical center of Santo Domingo, but very close to many nice restaurants and interesting places to visit.

An Inside Look at Casas del XVI Boutique Hotel

Casas del XVI is a whole new concept in Santo Domingo accommodations, bringing the romance and ease of a bygone era together with modern comfort, service and convenience. Here amid the beautiful, historic setting of the Colonial City, our collection of beautifully restored houses with remnants of the sixteenth century, combine into a single, unified hotel environment. Our welcoming staff members are dedicated to providing you with a level of hospitality that leaves you feeling invigorated, refreshed and completely content. Let us be your choice of hotel in Santo Domingo. The individual houses that together make up Casas del XVI were built in the 16th century or incorporate elements of 16th century architectural designs. The tiled Roman roofs and original vaulted brick archways, for instance, evoke Colonial City’s romantic past. Their history helps give each of the Casas its own unique, eclectic character. Now each home has been meticulously restored, preserving the charm and grace of the old, while adding the comfort and convenience of the modern and new. Original heirloom art and furnishings are complemented by an eclectic collection of works from contemporary artists.

There is nothing bad to say! What the property may lack in ocean views, it makes up for in luxe decor, top-notch service, pristine housekeeping, and high-end clientele. :-)
Casas del XVI is a stylishly decadent experience. You enter through a secure foyer and are directed towards a uniquely sophisticated lounge area. At this point, your vacation has already begun. You will sip fresh juices on a luscious sofa as they check you in and inform you about their services., You will then be given an iPhone pre-programmed with the numbers of the concierge and your butler. Your butler takes you to your room to show you how to access it's features. You notice the airiness of the room, the attention to detail, and all of the bathroom amenities one comes to expect. Meanwhile, the staff has already set up your lounge chairs by the pool, complete with water, two towels, and leather-bound menus. Breakfast may be served poolside or at an elegantly-set table in the courtyard. if you happen to order a few bottles of Champagne (as we did,) they will be attended to quite expertly to protect against the Caribbean heat. Quick to anticipate needs, our amazing butler Agusto knew exactly when to offer to reset our chairs in a shadier spot, provide menus, or bring more of our favorite bubbles. He was the absolute best! Lastly, the beds are one of the most comfortable I've slept in.
