Santo Domingo hotellit lähellä Chu Chu Colonial

Plussat: Hi! , We love everything in there, we feeling like our own home,. Thanks you

Miinukset: Oh! the meals, you have to make some changes in the menu, like Dominican foods sometimes.

Plussat: The view was outstanding and the staff were very attentive. The facility was nice, but there were a few issues with the conference rooms, electricity and water issues.

Miinukset: The rooms were just ok. The decor is very basic and one of my colleagues complained that she felt a bit claustrophobic in her room. We tried to hook up the computer to the tv via a cord-- and the hotel only has one remote control (for the entire hotel) that changes the inputs on the tv. The prices for the buffets/food were ridiculous. $35 for lunch plus 28% in taxes. This includes the 18% ITBIS and does not include tip.

Plussat: I have stayed at many hotels and resorts around the world. This place from the start treats you like you like you are the only one in the room :). The staff is very friendly and helpful. The food was great especially the pasta and shrimp, the salmon wasn’t as fresh as I like but still it was good. The facilities were 4/5 and were state of the art. With the Sheraton club ithe benefits are so worth it. The staff can guide you to places you would like to visit. With google translate outside you should be ok as well. I do not speak much Spanish but the staff spoke English well enough for us to communicate

Plussat: The room was spacious and the lobby and restaurants were very nice. Casino next door was unexpected surprise, which my parents loved.

Miinukset: The only thing was the location isn't as close to colonial zone, but not much they can do about that

Plussat: Good service Location is close to historic center

Miinukset: Room was some short Taxi from/to airport is $40 (30 minutes)

Plussat: The Service is Excellent!

Plussat: Friendly and professional staff. Good breakfast.

Miinukset: There wasn't any juice available until after I had already finished breakfast.

Plussat: Staff and facilities

Plussat: The people

Plussat: Hotel was super clean and everyone was very nice!

Miinukset: Food was expensive and limited

Plussat: Historic hotels , rooms were basic but the historic nature helps

Miinukset: Construction noise Basic rooms

Plussat: Quaint Clean Attentive staff Deliciouso breakfast!

Miinukset: We had a junior suite on the main floor. The traffic noise woke us up on several occasions. Get a room on a higher floor TV was almost un watchable due to problems with the color. I reset it to the factory settings but no luck. AC was either full on or off. No in-between.

Plussat: gorgeous building, interior, and courtyard design. it really is unique and mazelike; i was smitten. (i'm from california so i'm floored by anything > 100 years old.) décor is like a regal columbus-fanboy/conquistador-chic, the zealotry of which i found somehow both zinn-esquely uncomfortable and museum-patron aesthetically pleasing. our room had tons of space, an antechamber with a few couches, a great bathroom (jet tub!, separate shower, separate toilet, bidet), an adorable relic of a pc with a 3.5" floppy drive, decent wifi (got dropped a few times but it was reasonably fast compared to what i'd seen in other cafés... just don't plan on playing an fps, etc.). we had the 5-crown room which i wouldn't normally spring for; there just wasn't vacancy in other rooms: it was the perfect hideaway to recharge and relax after walking around all day. so comfy :3 the location is perfect for exploring the zona colonial. my bf appreciated the a/c, which was very effective.

Miinukset: nothing too bad, but staff was just okay, not super attentive and not particularly helpful when i had issues, i wouldn't consider them outright rude or anything though. e.g. -- i asked for a first aid kit or a bandage etc (in spanish) when my bf cut his foot and they just kinda shrugged and stared, so i just had to go outside and look for a pharmacy. -- i asked for the balcony door to be unlocked and they just never got around to it for the entire duration of my stay, etc. the free/not-free breakfast debacle: like another reviewer, i also was kind of confused when at checkin they said i had to pay for breakfast (the description said it was included). i chalked this up to an inaccurate description sent to the various hotelerie sites, and just assumed i'd pay for it a subset of the days, but then at checkout they didn't charge me for any of my breakfasts... so eh? if i had known it was actually included instead of hearing conflicting information i would have eaten breakfast there 100% of the time and saved some money : \ a lot of these might just be cultural differences, which is why i wanna reiterate that it wasn't too bad... i just wouldn't call it amazing service as i'd heard described in other reviews.

Plussat: Hotel Palacio is a standing work of art. A very simple hotel filled with a consistent colonial homage throughout. The respectful Traveller will enjoy its location and proximity to authenticity.

Miinukset: The bright light outside my door was annoying at night.

Plussat: I liked the fact it was close to nightlife, shops, parks and restaurants. The rooms were clean and the staff was friendly. I was greeted with a glass of champagne as soon as I walked in the door to check in. I would stay here again and would recommend it to friends.

Miinukset: The only thing that was a downfall was my bed was a bit hard. My friend as staying in another room and his bed was as soft as could be. I guess I got a bum deal when it came to my bed...

Plussat: For the price, nothing about this hotel was really worth it.

Miinukset: I didn't like anything. The shower was very small, the way they set up the minibar was deceitful. I figured the stuff was free to make up for such low quality. Literally over $60 for snacks you could get at a store for $10 or less. There's a little booklet that had prices but it's basically hidden. They did that on purpose. The room had nothing special in it. Felt kind of gross too but it was pretty expensive. I can't recommend this place.

Plussat: Fantastic Location. Friendly and professional staff. Breakfast had a wonderful selection. Parking was a little cramped, but the staff handled the car parking sufficiently. Parking is very tough in this area. The reception was warm and welcoming. They speak English and Spanish. The staff is very helpful with whatever you need. I would stay here again and highly recommend this hotel.

Miinukset: The staff sometimes talked a little too loud outside of the rooms.

Plussat: The location to the center of the center is the only plus!

Miinukset: The construction and the smell of raw sewage made me sick to my stomach. They pictures are obviously doctored bcause the rooms were small! They charged me $80 USD extra because I brought another person! This place sucks and will never stay there again!

Plussat: Il like the Food it is very clean and the staff was very nice the wifi was very good no issues

Miinukset: I didn't like the bed very uncomfortable and the towel wasn't great they need new bed and towels my body was kind of ache by sleeping in the bed

Plussat: Nice staff- reasonably clean. Not at all luxurious. Had to request towels and some basics daily. Very small rooms. Terrace is nice. Good if you need a place to sleep and won't be spending much time on the property. Friendly staff. Good price

Miinukset: Two small towels daily- no hand towels, wash clothes, etc. small small rooms. Bed not great. Sheets not great. Shower did not have hot water some days.

Plussat: Me and my wife enjoyed the view from balcony and quiet nights untill Friday. I liked the simple furniture design and antique flore tiles. Staff was friendly and helpful. The terrace is very nice and breakfasts there are romantic.

Miinukset: The mattress needs upgrade. Also dividing glass wall in shower should be longer, because the water is splashing infront of toilet. Or add curtain. We also did have noisy guests on Friday night. It will be very nice for guests and extra income for hotel if you serve lunch and dinner on terrace.

Plussat: Very good

Miinukset: Poor Internet

Plussat: Good location

Miinukset: Too much noise outside

Plussat: I had a great stay at the Hotel Jade. There is a small restaurant next to it called Food Zona run by a wonderful Hungarian couple. The hotel rooms were small but clean. A/C worked great. Cable TV with both English and Spanish channels. Location is near the outdoor local market, the artisans market and colonial city center.

Miinukset: No elevator. No accessibility for people in wheelchairs.

Plussat: If you leave you're overly Rosy expectations in the United States this is an awesome hotel. If you want to nitpick things go spend $200 a night somewhere. This is in a good area with a really cool cafe 40 meters away and it is a 15 minute walk from Conde Street which is very popular and full of shops. I also highly recommend Mandela Pub. It is an expat place and plays really good jazz and classic rock and is run/owned I think by a Spanish lady. The staff at the hotel was super friendly and generally worked hard to meet expectations. I only know 17 1/2 words in Spanish but fortunately can smile fluently in Spanish. There were a couple people who spoke English. The worst thing I could say it about it is that it took me three tries to get some towels when the cleaning lady didn't put any in the room after removing the ones in there. There is a good, very polite cook at breakfast making omelets to order and the breakfast is a good deal.
