“Nice area for a weekend in the capital.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 November 2011
3
people found this review helpful

This is an average hotel, nothing special. The location is probably the best reason to stay in this hotel. It is not luxurious as the Melia, but for a weekend it is more than ok. No complaints about the rooms, I had 2 beds for myself and the mini-bar was well-filled. Bathroom was ok.
I liked the nightclub on the ground floor and the casino adjacent. The club's visitors are the (white) upperclass and elite of the Dominican Rep. The hotel is situated at the begin of Malecon Avenue with a board walk of more than 5 kilometres along the carribean see.
El conde, Parque Colon and Palacio Nacional are in walking distance of the hotel.
The rooms with sea view are the best! The pool is simple, but the bar at the pool is pretty nice for a drink. Every weekend they have life music. It's good to start with this before club hopping. Break fast was average. If you want to bring a chica to your room, the staff won't mind. Moreover, if needed, they will call a chica for you! :)
Yet, if you look for more luxury, a bigger casino or night club. Pay 50 dollars more and move to hotel Melia, 3 blocks from this one.

“Little value for such price, have seen much better for the same price”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 July 2011

Stayed here for 2 nights but if we would have a time and energy to find other we surely have moved to other place. We stayed just because we have been too tired as we arrived very late in SDO that day and stressed out by embassy issue the day after. It seems to have its best time but definately not anymore. Noisy as its located in the main road facing the ocean (malecon). Great that after we finally can continue our journey, we found other with much better condition and value

“NO NO NO HELL NO!!! NEVER STAY IN THIS HOTEL”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 March 2011

person found this review helpful

If you want to have a good vacation, never go to this hotel. 1) they say private pool in each room, maybe i don't know what pool means...2) the sheet are cheap, dirty. Instead of white, they are grey. 3) the towels seems like the towels you use to put your feet after shower. 4) i got a 12" tv. 5) the service is the worst i ever see in my life. 6) I couldn't sleep, cause there's a club in the hotel and the sound were loud.This hotel is the worst i ever stay. I don't recommend it cause i got a really, really bad experience. To finish, the worst thing is that while my sister where around the table to take the breakfast, the waiter stole her cellphone, a blackberry. After many pressure, he decide to gave it back. He said that a customer took it, and he gave it back. He gave it back without the cover( the cellphone as a blue cover) Please, NEVER STAY IN THIS HOTEL!!! i think they have to change the name. Instead of Napolitano Hotel & Casino, they must call it Napolitano Motel/cabaña and casino.
Once again NEVER STAY IN THIS HOTEL. I have read some reviews, and if i trusted them, my stay in Santo Domingo could be better.

Dear Sir,

What happened with the celluar of your sister is: the waiter give back the cellular after that one client found it in the breakfast area and give it to the security guy. There was no pressure with the waiter (is working here from years and he's perfect), it only takes time to investigate and recuparate the celluar. That's what happened really. Nobody from the staff will going to rob something to a client. Before leaving I talk with your sister and her husband and they thanks me to have found the celular.

For the other incovignence that you was talking about we're working on it.

I hope to see you again in the Napolitano

Best regards

“Good value, friendly staff, covenient location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 January 2011

Best few things about hotel are friendly/helpful staff; pool area; full included breakfast; location; price. Room was clean; maid service excellent; good food, beautiful pool/terrace area overlooking the Malecon road and walkway along the Caribbean. All rooms overlook the sea. Yes the hotel could use a new paint job and new carpets and new bedding, but it seemed the hotel staff was constantly cleaning and scrubbing the place. Do not stay there expecting it to be quite at night. The terrace bar/restaurant often has great live music late into the night and on the Malecon there will often be people playing wonderful music loudly. But you can always get your rest during the day at the peaceful pool area. There is a small casino and a nice discoteque so you have about everything you need at the hotel. The General Manager: Gilles seemed to always be available and ready to provide cheerful assistance. I will definitely stay at The Napolitano again.

“Not worth the price”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 October 2010

I would not recommend this place, no hot water, no wireless internet and very poor service. Our room was dirty and the noise from the club kept us awake until 5 in the morning everyday.
