Whoever wants to spend a couple of days in Santo Domingo and prefers smaller but fine accommodation to large hotel-chains should definitely stay at the Boutique Hotel Palacio in the old part of the town. It is a very nice, comfortable and very clean hotel. One easily feels at home straight away. Not to forget the hospitable atmosphere, the friendly... More

It was my second stay here in a little over a year. I love this place! The room on the 4th floor with the huge balcony (bigger than many hotel rooms) is worth the price of the stay alone. Unfortunately, it was booked on my last night and I had to move to another room. I was pleasantly surprised how... More

You cannot beat this for location to sights, restaurants, etc. Be sure to not get a room on the street side. The best rooms are in the new section, floors 3 and 4. The hotel restaurant is not much to crow about. The breakfasts are adequate but not grand. You are better off elsewhere for dinners.

Found this hotel on trip advisor and were not disappointed, especially for the price. This is a boutique hotel, in a beautiful old world building, that has been renovated. Courtyard is gorgeous! Our room was on the top floor and there were some issues with water pressure. Otherwise, the room was spacious. The staff was extremely helpful and nice. Location... More

The hotel is very well centered. We found it a little expensive considering the benefits provided, but in any case the hotel was very agreable. We got a large room with air conditioning (everything was working, thankfully).

Stayed here in 2010 and again this past March 2013. The place hasn't changed. Free wifi in the rooms and parking. The pool on the roof level is great to relax in and break from the heat.

Stayed in massive room 120. Beautiful, well maintained historical building. Free indoor parking. A few steps away from the best part of Santo Domingo. On the corner of a pedestrian street. Would go back in a heartbeat.

Stayed at this hotel for 3 days. When we arrived, the receptionist was very helpful in getting us to our room. We had to wait because we got there earlier than our check in time, and she pointed us to the right direction to a delicious restaurant. When we got back, our bags were in our room and you really...
