Erica, United Kingdom

Excellent price/ quality. Good location in Colonial Zone. Nice hotel, Spanish vibes. Parking near hotel. Restaurants, bars, shops,... Excellent staff, willing to help at any time and very friendly.

Didier, Belgium

Breakfast was great and fast when we needed it to be. The whole property had a very romantic, antique feel, with beautiful tile work. The pool was fantastic. I was a little worried it would be a loud party spot due to some of the pictures, but on a weeknight it was quiet and peaceful. Highly recommended if you are exploring the colonial zone.

Emily, United States of America

“- the breakfast - the environment, typical colonial house - really comfortable room - cosy bathroom - nice host”

Pierre Edouard

France

“Loved the ambiance, however 1 of the 2 rooms we rented (bottom floor) had a strong mildew smell. But what made everything bearable was the great attentiveness of Felix and Yanil. Their smiles, assistance and friendliness made our stay very pleasent. Breakfast was very complete and made to our dietary restrictions of 7 active seniors. We will return, hopefully they will work on some of the rooms mildew smell to make it a perfect accomodation.”

“A small atmospheric place w a pool in the heart of Zona Colonial”
- • Group of friends
- • Deluxe Double Room - Antonetta
- • Stayed 2 nights
눉Do not attempt to book rooms on the hotel's own Website--it's not monitored and the reservations may not be honored (we nearly avoided a fiasco by calling). Emails in either English or Spanish are also not answered. The best way is to communicate is to call and to make your booking through a hotel portal. The pool is pleasant but they really ought to add some stone steps to make it easier for people to get in and out--for someone with even a slight physical problem, or just past middle age it can be a challenge. The jacuzzi they advertise needs to be turned on upon request. It's rather cold, but the main issue is that the jets are barely working so it's just like sitting in a lukewarm bathtub. Too bad because a rooftop jacuzzi would be a big attraction. They also clearly intended to set up some kind of lounge on the roof but haven't gotten around to it yet. In general the hotel not disabled-appropriate but if you are in an OK shape help you can navigate the stairs without issues. They do help you with carrying luggage upstairs if you are in one of the higher level rooms.
눇The location is in the Zona Colonial, the safest and most historic part of Santo Domingo, with all sights and shops (including a big supermarket open late) nearby. A small but stylish hotel with lots of atmosphere. It has a quirky unique character really making the best of traditional architecture to evoke the early Spanish-influenced buildings. Breakfast, which is included, is ok. It's possible to have dinner in the hotel at an extra charge, although it's a bit pricey by local standards, but the drinks at the bar are okay and it's pleasant to sit by the pool in the shade of a mango tree. The staff is very kind and responsive. When we returned from our walk on our last day to pick up our luggage they gave us a few small items left behind in our room--this was very thoughtful. The a/c and the cable TV work well and everything is kept very clean. I'd return without hesitation and would bring a friend.

눉If there is one criticism and it's not really a big deal. Because breakfast is included and it is great. It would be nice to know what your breakfast options are a head of time. Again, it's not really a criticism because I love that breakfast is included.
눇It is a small place which meant the staff was very attentive to making sure your stay is enjoyable. The service was first rate and I would stay there again.

눉That everything in the restaurant and bar has to be charged in US dollars. The price for a beer is expensive and on checkout the change is in Dominican Peso. Also, I had an evening flight and even at repeated requests to stay in room till 3:00 pm for an additional charge was asked to vacate my room at 12:00 noon. My flight was st 6:29 pm. I have stayed in other hotels in the area and was not booted out of the room but charged extra for the additional hours stayed.
눇Staff was very friendly and eager to help
