About the Hotel

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.

Exceptional staff in a truly remarkable setting!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 days ago

During our inspection trip, we were pleasantly surprised by the outstanding quality of service provided by the entire staff. Warm, energetic, and highly professional, they are always present when needed while remaining discreet and unobtrusive. The hotel’s ideal location, in the heart of the Colonial Zone, immediately immerses you in a genuinely Dominican atmosphere, perfect for exploring the city in all its authenticity. The rooms are exceptionally comfortable, with luxurious and pleasant bedding that invites true relaxation. Only minor drawback: the electrical outlets are not fully suited to today’s technological needs. The restaurant offers a refined menu, with cuisine that is particularly delicious and pleasing to the palate. A bit more fresh fish would have made it perfect, but that’s a minor detail given the overall excellence of the service. As for pricing, the property offers great value for money considering its standard. However, it would be helpful for guests if prices were displayed including VAT, to avoid surprises when settling the bill. In conclusion, this hotel is perfect for a 2- to 3-night stay in the capital of the Dominican Republic, allowing you to enjoy its exceptional setting and services while freely discovering the city on your own.

Wonderful!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 4 days ago

This is my second visit to Santo Domingo for work and my second stay at the hotel, everything has been wonderful! Perhaps my favorite part has been the beautiful breakfast and lovely attentive staff. The ladies at breakfast Yaritssa, Michel, Ana, and Minda are the best! I hope to come back again soon and when I do I will definitely stay at Nicolas de Ovando again :)

Amazing staff

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 weeks ago

Felix Gonzalez the front door staff was excellent. He speaks perfect English and made my stay so memorable.. He recommended many local sites, explained the city, helped me check in and recommended different food to try. Felix was the gem of my trip and went above and beyond. I just wanted to come here and thank you for employing such an amazing person who deserves a raise. Thanks again.
