Hotel Casa Del Sol (Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic)

This property is situated in the Colonial Zone which is away from the more popular tourist areas but also a bit of a hidden gem. If you do want to venture into the busier parts of town then it is only a few blocks away and easily accessible by foot. There you will find a range of shops, restaurants and attractions.

Breakfast is included in most room rates and there is more than enough to set you up for the day. The quality of food is very good and it is served on the rooftop terrace.

This is a small, family run hotel with owners who are extremely hospitable. They will do whatever they can to ensure that you have a good stay and are happy to give recommendations of where to visit whilst you are there. It has a very cosy and relaxing ambience and guests return time after time. Despite being a smaller property air-conditioning is present in most areas and there is also an excellent Wi-Fi provision.

When looking for prices at this hotel you may notice different room rates coming up. If there is a choice of rooms try and go for the bigger ones as the small ones are really tiny. If you have booked it just for a place to lay your head for a couple of nights you may feel satisfied, but other guests have found the rooms too claustrophobic.

Due to its location some street noise may be heard, especially on the lower floors. Noise does travel throughout the property too so if guests are being inconsiderate as they move around the public areas then this sound will travel into the guestrooms.

There is no on-site parking for this property so if you are travelling by car you will need to either park on the street or in one of the nearby public car parks.
