Una buena ubicación y un entorno verde privilegiado.
Cons:

Solicité un early check in y me dijeron que cargaban 10 dólares por hora, lo cual creo que podrían considerar tratándose de una clienta como yo que ya se ha hospedado por lo menos en 6 oportunidades en los últimos 6 meses en el hotel.

Excelente
Pros:

Todo excelente, limpio , cómodo, rico desayuno , atención.

Cons:

Se bloquearon 2 veces las tarjetas por motivos externos y tuvimos que bajar y esperar un rato para volver a entrar a la habitación. La conexión del baño a la habitación es abierta y si alguien a medianoche o madrugada va al baño y prende la luz , se ilumina la pieza aún con una cortina

My overall experience was truly exceptional!
Pros:

The property was impeccably clean, creating a refreshing atmosphere. The staff were not only welcoming but also incredibly helpful, ensuring a pleasant stay.

Cons:

I would have enjoyed having music in the pool area, as it would have enhanced the ambiance. Additionally, the presence of only one staff member in that area was not particularly pleasant. However, aside from these points, my overall experience at the hotel was excellent.

Hotel storico a Santo Domingo, quasi perfetto!
Pros:

Bella struttura, dotata di una gradevole piscina, una palestra piccola ma ben dotata, grande hall e servizi vari di bar e ristorazione

Cons:

Nella pulizia quotidiana spesso ci si dimentica il re-fill di qualcosa: una volta il,caffè, una volta il vanity set, una volta il tappeto del bagno. Potrebbe farsi maggiore attenzione!

100/10
Pros:

La experiencia fue simplemente excepcional. Desde el primer momento se percibe la elegancia y el cuidado en cada detalle. El hotel es realmente hermoso, impecablemente mantenido, con una arquitectura que armoniza perfectamente con su entorno.

Las zonas verdes son un verdadero encanto: jardines cuidados al detalle, espacios amplios y una atmósfera que transmite tranquilidad y exclusividad. Cada rincón invita al descanso y al disfrute.

La experiencia gastronómica fue otro gran acierto. La comida es deliciosa, con una presentación impecable y sabores que reflejan calidad y dedicación.

Quiero resaltar especialmente al staff, que es sencillamente espectacular: atentos, cálidos y siempre dispuestos a hacer que cada momento sea especial. Una mención muy especial para Jacinto, cuyo profesionalismo, amabilidad y dedicación elevaron aún más nuestra experiencia. Sin duda, su servicio marcó la diferencia. Es un destino que combina lujo, confort y excelencia en el servicio. Totalmente recomendado
