The best hotels Central

Right in the city centre, in the busiest, but also the noisiest area. The Hodelpa Centro Plaza was the most luxurious hotel in the city before the Gran Almirante was built. The 72 rooms are comfortable and well equipped with air conditioning, cable TV, telephone... A restaurant on the top floor with a panoramic view of the city welcomes you to enjoy local and international cuisine. Small gym and casino open until 4am for the addicts. Very complete buffet breakfast.

A little away from the center, in a quiet area, the Colina del Valle hotel is a modest establishment without much charm, except maybe its rather tropical green and yellow façade. It has about twenty rooms (16 single rooms and 4 double rooms), clean and well kept, with a rather correct comfort (the bathrooms have hot water). The car park is supervised. An address that we will consider for one night during a visit to Constanza. The view on the mountains is quite beautiful from the hotel.

There are not many good hotels in La Vega, so try to book in advance, especially during the carnival period (end of February)! The hotel offers clean, large and furnished rooms with all the comforts: air conditioning, television, hot water and wi-fi. All have their own colourful style. There is a restaurant on the ground floor which serves simple traditional cuisine in a large room. Smiling and available welcome. Good service. One of the most interesting places to stay in La Vega.

A little out of the way, this hotel offers 50 comfortable rooms. They are spacious, equipped with quality bedding (king size or twin beds), television, air conditioning, bathroom, mini fridge, wifi connection... A swimming pool surrounded by deckchairs invites you to relax and refresh yourself at any time of the day. The most gamblers among you can go to the hotel's casino (and play in moderation!). Bar area for a drink. Friendly reception, free parking.

The Don Chucho hotel is an establishment without much charm, but which has the advantage of having about ten very simple, comfortable and well kept rooms, and especially having air conditioning. Each room is also equipped with a television and a private bathroom with hot and cold water. There is also a swimming pool (with a slide for the little ones), but also a cafeteria-restaurant serving typical and cheap dishes, as well as a very local discotheque. Perfect for a one-night stop.

The hotel has forty rooms, all with air conditioning, television, private bathroom with hot water, mini bar, internet access... The decoration leaves a little to be desired, but the rooms are nevertheless clean. The establishment also has a restaurant that combines local and international specialties. A bar completes the offer of the establishment where one comes to have a drink at the end of the day. Free parking on site. Pleasant welcome and service. One of the best accommodation options in San Juan.

This is a hotel-restaurant with 33 functional rooms equipped with cable TV, fan or air conditioning, bathroom with hot water and comfortable bedding. Internet access is only available in the common areas (subject to change). The D'Angel's restaurant offers a very good local and international cuisine. This establishment remains the most comfortable option in town. The reception is friendly and available and the price/quality ratio is excellent. Parking.

Nothing seems to have changed in this hotel since its construction, nevertheless, it remains comfortable. Its rooms are rather old-fashioned in style, but have pleasant beds, air conditioning, television, Internet connection... The restaurant of the Maguana serves a simple Dominican kitchen, but rather tasty. The reception is rather warm and available. You will choose to stay in this hotel if you do not find any other option available, or for one night only. Free and ample parking is available on site.

Surprising, yet true: there is something of the atmosphere of the Alps here: wooden chalets of Swiss architecture, the shade and coolness of the conifers, the smell of the mountains... The hotel complex is spread out over a huge hilly property planted with fir trees. It consists of about fifty private chalets belonging to Europeans and Dominicans, as well as chalets housing apartments for rent. The communal facilities (restaurant, swimming pool, tennis court and mini-market) create a friendly village atmosphere.

The panoramic view of the surrounding mountains and the Cibao region is beautiful. In all, Camp David Ranch has 18 rooms with bathroom, balcony, air conditioning, television and wifi. The owner has a collector's soul since he bought an impressive quantity of Jeeps and private cars that belonged to the dictator Trujillo. He was thus able to open a small museum of old cars. For the meals, a restaurant of classic Dominican kitchen with a beautiful wine cellar.

The hotel is located on a wide, busy road and is a little off-centre, but it is noisy. The rooms and suites, arranged around an interior patio, are however spacious, clean and comfortable. They are equipped with a choice of single or double beds, air conditioning, a mini bar, a refrigerator and quality bedding. However, there is no television for those who would like it. On the spot, a nice swimming pool surrounded by deckchairs and a casino for the most gamblers among you. Professional welcome.

The rooms, spread over three neighbouring buildings, are unattractive and quite small, but very clean (with television, hot water, some with air conditioning) and well located in the centre. The option of the Colonial Hotel as accommodation is only ideal when you have to spend a night in Santiago. Just next door, the same owner has the Colonial Deluxe, more comfortable... but more expensive! Nevertheless, the reception is pleasant and all the points of interest of the city are nearby, so travellers on foot will appreciate it.

Named after the large bird found in the area, Rancho is the address for mountain ecotourism. The property is set on a steep hillside and has a series of cottages on the summit.

The restaurant prepares a tasty local and international cuisine (attention, the meals are taken early). Multiple activities: horse riding, quads rental, adventure course..

Located at an altitude of 2,200 m, in a mountainous setting, the property is an old flower plantation whose wooden cabañas are the houses that once housed the employees. Perfectly restored and maintained, the seven cabañas of different capacities (up to 9 people) have a resolutely mountain style, with an indispensable fireplace. They all have a kitchenette and a bathroom with hot water. At nightfall, you can light up your room with a kerosene lamp and curl up in an armchair near the blazing fireplace.

This complex has about sixty very comfortable accommodations (quality bedding, television, telephone, balcony with panoramic view, room service), including 34 independent villas. There is also a camping ground and a small grocery store to avoid returning to the city. The view is superb and the restaurant very pleasant. The restaurant serves tasty, well-presented Dominican cuisine at all hours of the day. Groups are welcome. They will help you to organize different excursions in the surroundings. Good value for money.

We recommend the upper rooms to enjoy the view of the surrounding plains and mountains. Professional welcome available. Nice address.

On a nice hill at the entrance of the town, in a very quiet area, a big chalet with a mountain look is home to 12 cosy and comfortable rooms and 5 villas for up to 5 people.
