Reviews for Hodelpa Nicolas de Ovando
Great service
We enjoyed a very nice breakfast. The whole staff were terrific! Our server Evelyn was very prompt. The rooms at the hotel were very nice as well as the pool area. The front desk staff gave good advice and the gentleman bringing our suitcases up to our room knew a lot about the history of the hotel. I would 10/10 recommend a stay here.

A corner of paradise in Santo Domingo
Excellent hotel in great location. Charming, clean, with history everywhere. I travel quite a bit and this is for sure a hotel I will remember for long. Highly recommend also the restaurant 1502, with Carla running the place with professionalism and extreme courtesy. Cindy also attending our table with lot of care. 5 stars.

Excellent Service by Evelyn
Our experience at the restaurant was outstanding! We were greeted by our waitress, Evelyn, who was extremely attentive and mindful of every detail. She provided prompt, professional service and genuinely cared about our family’s experience. The food presentation exceeded our expectations, and everything was absolutely delicious! We will definitely be returning for another visit.

A wonderful stay in Santo Domingo
Wonderful hotel. Beautiful building merging the new and old into a fantastic experience. The interior is gorgeous with walkways, courtyards, pool and restaurants. The staff was wonderful, our room elegant yet understated. Close to restaurants and shopping. we really couldn't have asked for more.
