Located in a residential neighborhood, this hotel is less than 3 miles from the shopping on El Conde, and 3 miles from where Columbus's expeditions established the New World's first city. This hotel’s restaurant offers elegant dining, with open-air seating in a courtyard shaded by a banyan tree; an on-site casino includes 30 slot machines and eight gaming tables. This hotel serves international business travelers and vacationers seeking a tranquil site away from Santo Domingo's lively nightlife yet within short taxi rides of financial, government, and historical centers. The hotel's lush tropical grounds contain a 90-by-40-foot pool surrounded by a sundeck offering padded lounge chairs for sunbathing comfort. The small casino entertains at night without disrupting the hotel's signature peace-and-quiet.
