The hotel is in an ideal location for business travelers, but I would not suggest this hotel to friends or family because of the older rooms and rude and dismissive service I received from the staff and management. I stayed at this hotel with my family in late December 2007. The rooms were scary! The oceanview room was old and... more

This is touted as the best hotel in Dominica. While the oceanfront rooms were spacious and had a balcony with a wonderful view, the service was terrible and, often, extremely rude. It takes at least 2-3 calls to get a request filled. They never had enough towels. Usually, we only got 2 bath towels, no bath mats, and no hand... more

We stayed 6 days at the Fort Young Hotel. Our room was on the 1st floor, an ocean view deluxe suite. When the cruise ship docked right in front, we still had views of the ocean. We paid $140/night base + VAT and other taxes. The room was very spacious. The bathroom had tub/shower, large sink and separate large vanity... more

The Fort Young Hotel is the only 4/5 star hotel on the beautiful island of Dominica but unlike other hotels who don't have any competition they do make an effort ! The hotel is situated on the site of the old fort there (hence the name) and is very "colonial",in a fantastic setting with lovely views and lots of stone... more

We booked our wedding package in April and Ms Ruby Robinson who was the co ordinator was very professional and efficient. The hotel rooms that we stayed in were deluxe sea view which had breathtakingviews. For the past few years we have cruised with Princess Cruises and have seen views but these were magnificent and the sound of the sea... more

My family and myself had the opportunity to stay at the Fort Young Hotel this month during Hurricane Dean. We checked into 2 rooms with spectacular views on August 14th 2007. The care, concern and "service with a smile" that the staff and management delivered during the storm was absolutely remarkable. All the guests were checked on regularly throughout the... more

I stayed at Fort Young for the weekend in August. The staff was really very pleasant. The deluxe oceanfront room was so well tailored. The decor was simple but effective. The food is to die for. The Bath & Body Works accessories just placed the room over the top. I had a wonderful time. I fell asleep to the sound... more

We stayed at Fort Young during the July "off season" of 2007. We booked a Deluxe Oceanfront Room, and couldn't have been happier! The room was immaculate and well maintained. The view of Scott's Head (to the north) from the private balcony was lovely. The activities coordinator, Sonya, was incredibly helpful. She not only set up some group trips for... more

The view from the Deluxe Oceanfront room was wonderful. Dominica is an island filled with spectacular, picturesque, natural scenery. It has numerous hiking trails and waterfalls. You must relax in one of the many natural warm water springs. If you are looking to get away from the overally saturated tourist traps of other islands, Dominica is the place to go.... more

During my trip to Dominica I stayed with my wife at three different hotels, and this was by far the worst. The service was poor, and seemed very unfriendly. I don't blame them though because the guests seemed miserable as well. When I go on trips I enjoy getting away from "mass produced resorts", and this was my experiment with... more
