Embracing a legacy of rich history dating back to the 15th century, Hodelpa Nicolas de Ovando Hotel is located on the first paved road of the New World, Calle Las Damas, in the heart of Santo Domingo’s historic Zona Colonial, designated a UNESCO Heritage Site. Comprising three stone houses and courtyards built in 1502, the historic building was the very first to be built on the country’s colonial land and the home of the town’s founder and first Spanish governor of the Americas, Nicolas de Ovando, and his companion Christopher Columbus.

We stayed here with my husband and my 2 year old. We had an amazing experience. It is centrally located so you can walk everywhere. The food within the hotel is also really great for breakfast lunch and dinner! The servers go out of their way to ensure you are happy and the food was good too. Thank you Clara! You can walk right outside the hotel to Columbus Park where there’s many outdoor restaurants, live music, and cafes where you can get coffee including iced coffee. You can also get tours from there. The hotel was very clean and accommodating. The gym and pool are were also clean and well maintained. We loved it here and would definitely stay here again!
