I have been staying at Hodelpa Caribe Colonial on regular basis for the past five years and I loved it! The last time my husband and I stayed before this last weekend was in December of 2006 and it was amazing as every previous time. We got to know the entire staff and everyone starting with the General Manager were... more

This hotel is the best thing going in Santo Domingo. I have been there a few times now and I notice that the management listens to the guests' suggestions and makes adjustments when necessary. The quality of service is great. The staff did everything to make me feel at home. Everytime I go there, they have implemented something new -... more

I was staying elsewhere in Santo Domingo, and happened to pass by the property. It was inviting from the street, and even better inside. The property has a cool, hip lobby ("W" type), but done tastefully and not overboard (a little of that can go a long way - and esp when I'm looking for local charm when I leave... more

My husband and I stayed at the Hodelpa from 11/30-12-3. It was in a great location- walking distance from everything. the staff was nice and helpful most of the time. The room was... SMALL- very very small- we laughed when we walked in and just said "oh well" for the time you spend in your room it was fine for... more

I travel a fair amount, stay in a lot of dives, and sleep well anyplace. That may color my opinion, but I just love the Hotel Odelpa! Some of the accommodations are small--that is true. But they greet you with a fresh drink. The staff dress stylishly. And the rooms are appointed well with a touch of class without overdoing... more

I stayed at the Hodelpa Caribe Colonial in Santo Domingo for 9 days in April. The hotel suited my needs, and the service was pretty good, but I would not recommend anyone to stay at this hotel. I am not a very picky or critical person. This was my 2nd visit to the DR, and I have visited Cuba 4... more

We recently stayed at this property the first week of March, 2006. No question, the location in the heart of the Colonial Zone is the best thing about the property. Located nearby are banks, convenience stores, and restaurants (even the soon-to-be-opened Hard Rock Cafe) that are all close to the hotel. For the gay traveler, the local up & coming... more

We just returned from a 7 day vacation in Santo Domingo, from Dec 17, 2005 to Dec 23 2005. We stayed at the Hodelpa Caribe located withing walking distance of all the major attractions in the colonial zone. You find everything within walking distance. The hotel was clean and cozy althought the room and bath were somewhat small. We felt... more

I found a lot of truth the other reviews. First, the location of the Caribe Colonial was the best: in the heart of the Zona Colonial just 1 block from the First Cathedral of the America's and 3 short blocks to the Plaza Espana and the Colombus House. Its on a lively, safe street full of gift shops and art... more
