I have stayed at this hotel many times over the last 12 years, and it always a pleasure to return. The colonial zone of Santo Domingo is worth a two or three day visit, and this hotel is like returning to a cool oasis after sightseeing. The rooms are decorated in a traditional (Spanish?) style and look out on a... More

We stayed at this hotel as part of a large group (attending a wedding that took place at Frances). I guess that the best thing about Frances is that it is in the colonial part of Santo Domingo and that the venue itself is an old, but nicely restored building. The inner courtyard is very green and offers a nice... More

I had just arrived in Santo Domingo from a 3-week stay in the much more modest Cibao region of the Dominican Republic. Living among the locals of Cotui exposed me to the value of simple living, joyous people, and pride in making do with what you have at hand.

Hotel Francés contains 19 rooms in a nicely restored 16th century building. It has a beautiful courtyard for outdoor dining, a small bar adjacent to the patio, and a dining room adjacent to the lobby. The hotel is located in the Zona Colonial about three blocks from the El Conde shopping street, and is convenient to several banks. We stayed... More

Very nice hotel in Santo Domingo's Colonial District. Paid about $120 for the night (taxes and all). The room was clean and comfortable. Only minor problem was the remote control did not work, but it wasn't a big issue for us. More
