    helpful staff

    great spot near parks and colonial attractions for exploring

    I recently enjoyed my stay here, especially because it’s just a few steps to the beautiful Independencia Park and only a short stroll to the historic Zona Colonial, where I discovered charming streets filled with amazing landmarks.

    rooftop pool
    outdoor terrace
    tight room

    I had a lovely stay with my family for 1 night and really enjoyed the rooftop pool with stunning views and the cozy outdoor terrace where we relaxed. The room was a bit tight for our family, but the hot water and efficient air conditioning made up for it. Bring your own snacks since the grocery store next door had limited options! 🌞

    central location
    quiet room
    amazing sunset
    hidden fees

    Great stay, but watch out for extra charges

    The place is super central, so you can wander anywhere. Our room was quiet since it faced inwards, and the cold water dispenser was a lifesaver! The sunset from the terrace was breathtaking. Just be careful with their payment methods—ask how much it'll be in DOP or USD upfront! Oh, and the restaurant was nice but can get crowded.

    relaxing pool

    Charming, Charming, Charming

    I adored the rooftop terrace. Sipping my morning coffee with a fine view of the colonial architecture was lovely! The pool area was a serene oasis, perfect for unwinding. The staff went above and beyond, making me feel at home during my stay.

    strongly recommend 😊❤️

    I stayed at Hotel Discovery for 6 nights and found the location fantastic, right in the old colonial part of Santo Domingo. My room was clean and had great amenities like air conditioning and free Wi-Fi. The staff was polite and helpful, making my stay very pleasant.

    The breakfast options were limited.

    Charming location and clean rooms contributed positively to my experience, but weak Wi-Fi and unhelpful staff were notable issues. A quiet terrace view added magic to my stay despite some cleanliness concerns within the room itself.

    lack of kid-friendly food

    Loved using this place as a home base while exploring the vibrant Zona Colonial. The friendly staff helped us navigate the city with ease, and the rooftop breakfast was a delightful way to start our mornings with the family.

    My kids wished there were more kid-friendly options for breakfast.
