I have to say, my husband and I have just returned from spending best two weeks of our lives at the Fort Young Hotel in Dominica. We decided that we wanted to visit this year and googled the island for hotels. It didn’t take us long to decide on The Forty Young Hotel, restored from a historical fort and centered... more

We (a couple from Germany) had planned to stay at fort young from 16 til 26 May, because the funny experiences we left the hotel 2 days earlier. Let us talk about the things which are normal in the hotel and for the front desk staff: Our arriving day was a Friday. On Fridays it is normal that the fort... more

OK - my husband and I got a really good rate (US$65 per night plus taxes etc), however if I had paid advertised rates I would have been REALLY upset with the room. It was comfy enough, but small, and very noisy. (We had room 523) right above the laundry. throughout the night a fridge or similar would switch on... more

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
