Top Ciudad Universitaria Hotel Reviews

Weston Suites & Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excelente en todo, servicio, ubicacion y buenas habitaciones"

Dominican Fiesta Hotel

8/10 Good

"Overall, I had a great stay. The room was clean, comfortable, and the staff was friendly and helpful. The casino and other amenities were excellent. The only minor issue was that the bed sheets had a slight musty smell. It wasn’t unpleasant, but they didn’t smell as fresh as expected. Also, the hallway leading to the rooms had a noticeable old carpet smell. Other than that, everything was excellent, and I would definitely stay here again."

InterContinental Real Santo Domingo by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at the InterContinental Santo Domingo was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the manager and the entire staff went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect. Their professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail made us feel truly welcomed. The Presidential Suite was absolutely spectacular—spacious, beautifully appointed, and offering what we believe is the best view in all of Santo Domingo. The luxurious amenities and elegant design made for an unforgettable experience. This was truly one of the finest hotel stays we’ve ever had. We highly recommend the InterContinental Santo Domingo to anyone seeking world-class luxury, outstanding service, and an exceptional experience. We look forward to returning. Kenard"
