Hip - Santo Domingo Hotels

  • The Best of NileGuide
  • Santo Domingo offers a variety of accommodation, from luxurious five-star hotels equipped with all the bells and whistles, to simple hostels boasting not much more than convenience and central locations. Those looking to feast their eyes on magnificent colonial-era architecture, as well as a vibrant art scene, should consider staying in Santo Domingo’s Colonial Zone. Here, hotels are located within walking distance of the Museo de las Casas Reales (Museum of the Royal Houses) and the Cathedral Basilica Santa Maria la Menor, the first Cathedral of the New World. The streets and squares here are charmingly cobble-stoned, and dotted with restaurants and cafes that offer al fresco dining. Many cafes also feature paintings by local artists, plush with vibrant colors and forms.

    For luxury accommodation, consider the Sofitel Frances Santo Domingo, snugly located in a reconverted 18th century Spanish building, just minutes from the all the Zone’s monuments. A more affordable choice, but just as easily located, is the Mercure Comercial, which features its own restaurant, wireless internet and room service. For travelers on a budget, the Hostel La Colonial was recently built and offers simple accommodation in a great location.

    For those looking for natural beauty that is also close to the city’s historical area, El Malecon features a single boulevard with fantastic views of the Caribbean. This is a more commercial area of town, located close to El Conde, the shopping district. You can relax in luxury at the Marriott Renaissance Jaragua Hotel and Casino, which boasts all the benefits of a resort, a great location next to the beach as well as an on-site casino. Nearby is the Intercontinental V Centenario Santo Domingo Hotel, conveniently located within walking distance of the most bustling areas of the city. It features its own gym, spa and casino. A few minutes away from this hotel is the more modestly priced Melia Santo Domingo hotel, which features its own restaurant, pool and – you guessed it – casino.
