Casa Sanchez Hotel

Excellent service and information provided by the staff. Even though we got to breakfast too late on checkout they put together something for us, so generous. The common areas of the hotel are very welcoming and nice to hang out in. Our bed’s mattress collapsed when we got in to the room, but even though it was around 20h/8pm they sent us a carpenter who fixed it. Otherwise, I’d say the room was at the height of the price. Great location for discovering Zona Colonial which has been degrading lately so nice to stay at a place that is still in walking distance for everything. You’re more than done in four days.

Likes: nice staff, AC and fan, daily cleaning, self-serve coffee and water, basic breakfast (4 options) Dislikes: weak water pressure in shower, flimsy door lock, safe is not mounted so someone can just walk off with it so we never used it

It’d be convenient if they had a bus boy to carry the luggage to the room. It’s a long way to walk carrying 4 suitcases.

Location is central to all the zona colonial activities. Really enjoyed this hotel.

The sewer smell was unbearable I couldn’t sleep the first night. Terrible. Pool extremely dirty no one used it. Owner very rude, fruit on breakfast old saggy. Dirty hidden kitchen. Mangu horrible. That place is very very bad.

It was very convenient for us thanks again for everything

Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience, I felt like I in a villa all for my self. It was such a homie feeling that I will be telling all my friends and family of this Hidden Gem, I will be coming back for more!!

We wanted to stay in the Colonial Zone in a Dominican owned Hotel rather than in a worldwide Hotel Franchise. We have done this before in another Hotel before and this hotel was very one-of-a-kind. The room was very clean and the mattresses were very comfy. We booked a Superior room and I would recommend it as a minimum. I did see the standard room and they are lovely too but of course smaller. Our shower water was there and hot as needed. You know what they say about Dominican water: It's hot and arrives slowly. This hotel has beat two other 4 star hotels in that regard. Every room in the hotels has its own code lock where you set the code yourself. The safe is your room, but the only thing I would suggest is to have a decent safe in the room. However, the property seems very safe as the entrance doors to the hotel are coded. There are two separate entries to the hotel as the superior room side is separate from the other main hotel. You can go through either door. Breakfast is included and is simple but sufficient and nice. At least three options and they will gladly accommodate you. Whether you are on a budget and want a great place to stay for your money or whether you want something authentic Dominican and support the local people, you will not be disappointed. You are literally in the Colonial zone in walking distance from everything i.e the Christopher Columbus Cathedrale and restaurants and shopping all around and abound. 100% recommended

Overall, the hotel was cute, and vintage, so you get the vibe of the Zona Colonial. It's like 8 min walk from the main park and the popular restaurants, which means the area is quiet. What we didn't like was the fact that the AC wasn't working at night, and it was really hot. Staff told us that the power was out and they were working off the generator so basically they couldn't do much. In my opinion, if something doesn't work at your property, let the guests know, find a solution to accommodate your guest, or don't book those rooms. That was disappointing and it's the reason why I wouldn't go back.
