Hotels near Children's Library of the Dominican Republic, Santo Domingo

The room feels well organized. The water pressure is very strong and I feel like I took a shower properly. Good because the transfer line from the parking lot to the room is very close. Parking manager always waits to help parking. Above all, the price is cheap

Short vacation- 1st time in DR with my daughter. Loved the rooms, cleanliness, food, amenities (bath soaps etc were delightful). Good access to taxis- a must to get around. Did not attempt crossing the road in front; really wanted to go to the seaside- but that’s for next time 😊 Dined in most days- prices excellent (was not expecting room service to be so affordable in such a great looking hotel) Staff very professional. Did not feel hounded for tips at all, contrary to reports given elsewhere. Customer service was excellent- rapid responses to every issue we had (our phone wasn’t working on day 1, and we had to change rooms later bc thermostat needed to be fixed- was too cold🥶😅) I was genuinely shocked and pleased at how fast they responded and how sorry they were for the minor inconveniences. Bellmen Pablo and Alfredo 😘😘; they took care of us from start to finish. They made me forget I was in a foreign country, instead I felt like I was home. I truly wish them God’s blessings and hope they are there next time we visit! Santo Domingo very quickly became a favorite place of ours to visit. Renaissance Hotel made sure of that! Thank you all for your hard work- it is truly appreciated!

This absolutely gorgeous hotel in Santo Domingo's historic colonial zone is the perfect home base for your visit to the Dominican Republic! The beds were comfortable (with very fine linens) and rooms were spacious, and the staff friendly, helpful and efficient. In particular we thought Hector the doorman/maletero, Clara at breakfast and Dilcia with security went above and beyond. Cannot remember the names of the lovely women at the front desk when we checked in, but they were also wonderful. The breakfast buffet was not only delicious, but there was a wide variety-something for everyone-without sacrificing several traditional Dominican breakfast foods (which we love and find are often left off hotel menus.) We even got a complimentary tour of the historic hotel and surrounds-the icing on the cake!

We had a wonderful stay at this Aloft Hotel. The Hotel is brand new with beautiful common areas (Bar, Terrace, rooftop pool and lobby area. Lights and colors of the rooms and lobby are cozy. Views of city from the suites, terrace and rooftop pool are amazing. The best part of the hotel are their management, front desk personnel and staff in general. All were very friendly, professional and kind during our stay exceeding any customer expectations. The hotel had a very special detail and attention for my wife’s birthday when we came back to the room. We really enjoy our stay and definitely recommend to stay at this hotel when visit Santo Domingo.

I always love staying at El embajador for the staff. They feel like family, and they all treat you with love and respect. Lucy, the chef on the 7th floor deserves a Michelin star. Years apart from visits she is able to prepare the same delectable dish with the exact unwavering quality of a 5-star establishment. Marty and Yonatan are incredible servers, they will always try to accommodate you with the same love and warmth of family. Carlos Rodriguez the bellhop on the first floor is also great. He is always super friendly and genuine, this is the best staff ever. You will feel like you are staying at your new home.

Personalized service, excellent always with the client's best interest in mind. As the elevators are small, employees would get out of the elevator and walk up or down in order to follow Covid rules.. Breakfast buffet had a huge variety which slightly changed from day to day. Dinner menu is varried and the food fresh and well prepared. Premises are clean the room I had was spacious. Pool on the roof isn't anything to write home about but it's available. I personally found that pool/bar area a little tacky and the drink low quality and expensive. The gym area is outside the building and not the best. I used to stay at another big name hotel, I will go back to the W&P for sure. It was really good value.

I get my reservation though the sales department. The person I deal with is very courteous, 1. I agree with couple of bad reviews here,,,,, Key issues, room outdated and moist smell on rooms and hallways, ( they are trying to fix the issues with dehumidifiers throughout the floor's hallway.... 2. front desk : they have inexperience front desk agents..... ( looks like no customer service skills training is happening at this location.... 3. to give the benefit of the doubt, this location has what is called club members that are not guest of the hotel, but they use the facility's gym, pool, sauna, and amenities from the hotel. so I think this ism the reason why the front desk and some of their staff lacks of just serv. skills. mix of people ...... and locals that visit or are member of the club are the med high class of the country and treat staff like if they are slaves..... so part of the problem lays in that, they try..... talking about the front desk staff....... 4. other staffs, they think they know everything..... one thing that bothers the most is when someone is trying to cover a fault with an excuse that doesn't even make sense.... please don't BS a Bs'r. 5. Rooms: other than having a moist smell, they lack of insulation ( sound proofing) you can hear everything that is going on on the other room, and when I say everything, is EVERYTHING..... my 11 years old asked me if they were killing someone on the other room..... 6. ammeneeties and restaurant staff, very courteous, and pleasant tried to accommodate me as much as they could possible can...... 7. Staff at 8th floor. they have a cigar lounge up there and more of a pleasant view away from most locals that visit the facility...... 8. if you want to have a nice sleep try executive rooms. everything is different.... by the way THIS IS A VERY CHEAP ($$$$$$ WISE) HOTEL.

My layover in SDQ was utilized for resting. I did enjoy my room. It was clean with all the amenities. I enjoyed sleeping long hours without any interruptions. The members of Staff were pleasant and service in the restaurant was quick. The hotel is in close proximity to the SDQ airport and was ideal for my layover. Taxis were available at the behest of the front desk.
