I have stayed at Foreigners Club Hotel in Santo Domingo several times before (see my last review from November 2010) and after about a year's break from my last stay there (March, 2011) I am very sorry to say it has gone downhill. For some reason, all the staff previously at the hotel have gone and and the owner is... More

The Foreigner's Club is something between a youth hostel and staying with your aunt in Santo Domingo.Now, given that it is not a 5-star hotel, you need to adjust your expectations: no gift shop, no gym, no pool, no cafe. The hotel is part of the neighborhood of old Santo Domingo. Across the street is a tiny market, a block... More

great location, amazing staff!!!!! I had so much fun there, the staff are very helpful, and speak English, warm water, nice small rooms, and 30 sec walk from the main street of zona colonial. More

Graham showed me two rooms -- one overlooking the courtyard with a larger bathroom and one on the corner showing in the photo. I... More

I can't even imagine what my first time trip to Santo Domingo would have been like without this hotel and staff! Alberto (the manager) picked my friend and I up from the airport on time and told us the in and outs of Santo Domingo. We spend a day at the beach with him and a group of beautiful guys!... More

The staff is not only friendly, but extremely helpful! The rooms vary in price from $35 to $60 and all include breakfast in the morning. While it's a little off the main streets, it's location is prime for those wanting to explore zona colonial. Safety was never an issue for us, but they have a security guard present all night...
