Only good is historic architecture at hotel. No restaurant, no bar, nothing in the hotel... if you want to sleep with fan and air conditioner that doesn't work, stay here...they gave us an option of another room second night, but air conditioner also didn't get cold... we have to take cold shower to sleep!!! never again!!!

El Beaterio is my Go-To hotel whenever i stay in Zona colonial. Centrally located, walk to all the main attractions in the Old town: upscale restaurant literally in the same block! Tons of other dining options, bars, nice park where locals gather in the evening right across the street. Receptionist Pierre is super friendly and nice! Shows you everything, makes sure you know where everything is, what hours breakfast is etc. Hotel itself is such a historical jewel! You feel like you enter the Time Machine: lobby, breakfast area, staircase and room itself! I’m a history buff, so i also love how they have pictures everywhere and a little history written about the old times! The only thing I’d mention is to be careful when walking up to the second floor, it’s a bit slipper on top when it rains. Maybe owners will see this review and put a rubber mat or something else there as i almost slipped and fall, especially in the evening coming back after a few drinks :) Otherwise, don’t think twice and book this hotel because you won’t find better value in the area for your money!

Historic building in the heart of old-town!

Great experience in the heart of old-town! Friendly place, and quiet location on a small side street. Shower was a bit cramped but worked fine.

It's located in a colonial building surrounded other buildings and churches of the same era. The hotel is in a perfect location, staff are friendly and the patio and rooftop lounge were very inviting.

Great hotel in the heart of the colonial zone

The property is an old nunnery converted into a very cute boutique hotel. And my AC worked quite well! I really enjoyed this stay.

Always enjoy staying at this unique property. Excellent breakfast. Friendly staff. At the moment road is still under construction but was very manageable by foot. Hotel was making upgrades to inside patio and umbrellas. Would always choose to stay there.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The location is excellent, with everything accessible within a 15-minute walk. The staff were friendly and always willing to help. However, the breakfast was quite limited in variety and could be improved. Additionally, we were not informed in advance about the roadworks taking place directly in front of the hotel. While the noise wasn't too disruptive, it did make access a bit challenging.

Beautiful building but disappointed with stay.

Beautiful colonial property in the city center. Quiet location, good for a couple of nights. We like staying at these small boutique style hotels, as the staff tends to interact with the guests. They ask they typical questions, where we are from, what are our plans for the day, make recommendations, etc... That never happened here. Staff did their job, but they were cold. They did their best to answer any questions we may have had, but did not engage otherwise.

The location is great - the building beautiful. However my room was the closest to the kitchen and reception desk and the sound proofing almost inexistant. I coule hear all the kitchen noise from my bed. Quite unpleasant especially the bed was soooo comfy - too bad i couldnt enjoy it to the fullest

This is a lovely, small, historic hotel. It is also a museum. The breakfast was hearty and beautifully presented. The neighborhood is going through major restoration, but it was not noisy or inconvenient for us. We stayed there twice during our time in the DR and enjoyed both visits.
