I stayed here 6 or 7 times in the past 5 years. Each time I take an up grade to the Concierge floor, I live in Chicago and compared to our downtown hotel prices its cheap! The service up there is great. A little wine and cheese thing in the afternoon. The breakfast buffet is great. It's a safe area... more

I spent only 1 night here after I almost got ripped off at the Hilton the night before. The only reason I chose this place is because I was told there was a nightclub called Jubilee inside the hotel & wanted to enjoy some dancing without having to catch a cab at night in a town I did not know.... more

My second trip to Santo Domingo - didn't like it the first time and this didn't improve it any. When we checked in, there was only one person working the front desk and this was at 3 p.m. It literally took this lady 20 minutes to check each of us in. When she got to me, I was trying to... more

I stayed here twice within a one week period. Two nights in the tower which is more expensive and two nights in the garden annex. I liked the rooms in the garden annex more as they were more spacious and away from the main hotel. The only drawback is that if you are on the second floor of rooms, there... more

the rooms smell terribly of mold. the hotel was supportive in showing me several different rooms. I would of paid a bit more for the hilton which I was told is fabulous. Bottom line: stay only if you get a dirt cheap rate, smelly rooms, outdated furniture and bathrooms. more

I also attended a wedding reception at this hotel (in fact it was probably the same "conference" you were told the president was attending). I have lived in the caribbean previously, and knew what to expect. However, because the bride wasn't just another American with money, but a world traveler with Dominican roots, I expected the hotel to be at... more

the day we arrived, the entrance was filled with bellmen, porters, police and armed forces, why you ask because the Dominican president was there attending a conference. not 1 porter came to the car to help with the luggage. i had to pull them out with the help of the driver! once inside reception i complained and their response was... more

We were in Santo Domingo for four days (3 nights in the Jaragua). We booked a Garden Wing room over the Internet. The room was nice, but the stone floor was very cold from the AC. We switched off the AC but it did not get better. I asked the front desk for a "warmer" room - 20min later a... more

We attended a wedding located at this hotel. Decided to stay there as well. Not exactly located in the best part of Dominica but if your in to historical touring can't beat this area. Located a few miles from Christopher Columbus son's fortress /estate. Easy access by horse carriage or taxi. Bargain Bargain with everything never pay quoted price. The... more
