We only stayed here one night in driving around the Dominican Republic, but we have been extensively through the country and this is one of the BEST hotels that we have seen anywhere in the country. Food is good, service very attentive, the hot (usually free) breakfast buffet is great with eggs cooked to order, oatmeal, a wide variety of... more

I stayed in this hotel for two nights this past weekend (June 5, 2009-June 6, 2009). It was $166 USD a night including taxes. This hotel is extremely overpriced. This hotel should really be 50 USD a night. They offer free airport pick up however, they were over an hour late for the pick up. In addition, according to some... more

I have traveled throughout the Dominican Republic and stayed in many hotels. I stayed for two nights at the Gran Almirante in Santiago, February, 2009. Very friendly staff. People at the front desk had smiles on their faces and were very professional. Valet parking was included with my room. This is one of the only hotels in Santiago with a... more

There is an almost overwhelming sense of mediocrity that pervades this hotel, much like the faint smell of mildew. There is nothing terrible about the Gran Almirante, but nothing great, either. First the good points: The hotel is located in a pleasant part of Santiago, relatively close to business destinations. Although a little ragged around some of the edges, the... more

Located at a busy road you’ll find this larger hotel with an elegant lobby where you’ll be able to see into the aside casino. My very spacious room on the 3rd floor had a large king size bed, inroom safe, ironing set, large bathroom. The free WIFI connection was awful which had been confirmed by my business partners. The window... more

The facilities of this hotel are not congruent with a solid 4 star hotel. It is more of a weak 4 star one. At first, we were assigned a room in a very poor condition (water leaking, wore out furniture, smelly, etc), and then when we asked for a room change they assigned us a proper room (took them 4... more

The best in the North!!!!! This Hotel has excellent service. It is an independent chain of Hotels and they give excellent service. They have Airport pick up service. The Suite we stayed in was great. The Breakfast was awesome. The security is great there was a guard on each floor. The parking was underground and there even a guard there.... more

This was my first time ever to visit the Dominican Republic but due to work, I'll be there 3 or 4 more times before 2007 ends, and one good thing, is I know I have a perfect hotel. The rooms are nice, the A/C is nice and cool, and the bed is comfortable. Shower has very good water pressure. The... more

This hotel is considered one of the premier business hotels in Santiago. The rooms are a bit old and the service somewhat slow, but the overall experience is above-average for a visit to the Dominican Republic. Good restaurants and an adjacent casino will make your stay very enjoyable. The hotel is approximately 12 minutes from the Santiago airport and is... more
