Unfortunately at airport pick was a nightmare , the receptionist confuse my arrivals time and there was no car service waiting at airport for me , phone connection was horrible and waiting for arrangements to be there for me took a told of stress on me. Downside of hotel too va they never open the fridge in the room.
Which I feel I didn’t need to ask that’s common sense.

In my personal opinion, the hotel was overpriced for what it offered, especially for families. There was no family pool only a jacuzzi, which I initially thought was a shallow pool for children.

We had to wait about 40 minutes because our room wasn’t ready upon arrival. On the positive side, the bed and pillows were very comfortable, the view was beautiful, and the adult pool was nice.

Overall, while there were some good features, I expected more for the price.

La piscina muy linda y el ambiente agradable.
Ambos caballeros que nos trajeron y llevaron al aeropuerto grandiosos.

We had a wonderful mini-vacation at Hodelpa Gran Almirante and truly enjoyed our stay from start to finish.

From the moment we arrived, the experience was excellent. The chauffeur who picked us up was very friendly and welcoming. When we arrived at the hotel, the staff greeted us warmly in the lobby and provided plenty of helpful information about the property and its amenities.

The breakfast was one of our favorite parts. There was always something different each morning, and everything was fresh and delicious. The pool and jacuzzi were also great, very relaxing and well-maintained.

We also wanted to spend a day at the beach, and the hotel connected us with an independent tourist guide. He was phenomenal, very knowledgeable, professional, and made the trip enjoyable. He took us to Playa Dorada, which was beautiful and definitely worth visiting.

Overall, we had a great experience and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Santiago. It’s a perfect mix of comfort, service, and convenience.

It rained a lot while I was there. But I had a great time. The airport shuttle was there on time patiently waiting for me. This was one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in.

The hotel uses misleading or false advertising regarding the price. The advertising, which shows a picture of the hotel, states that the price is inclusive of all taxes and fees, but then when you arrive at the resort, they ask you to pay a $75 resort fee. We arrived late at night so we had not been able to utilize the resort and they only offered us one extra hour of usage of the kayaks even though the extra $75 brought us above budget and we would have chosen a different hotel. Also, the beach on the picture is not really a beach. It’s sand on top of land and then there’s a 4 foot drop with rocks. It’s a straight drop into the ocean. There isn’t really a beach. The hotel operator did point out that when you click to pay there is a small line that says that there is an additional fee, but I did not see it and it’s confusing it best and deliberate at worst.

I recently stayed at Hodelpa Gran Almirante Hotel & Casino in Santiago, and I cannot speak highly enough about the staff. From check-in to check-out, every team member was respectful, gracious, polite, and genuinely inviting. It's rare to find such consistently excellent service, and it made my stay truly memorable.

If you're looking for a good place to stay while in Santiago, Dominican Republic, I would absolutely recommend this hotel. The staff's dedication to guest satisfaction sets this property apart, and I have no hesitation in suggesting it to anyone considering a visit to the area.

Highly recommended!

We rolled into Santiago later than we hoped, but honestly that drive from Santo Domingo turned out to be half the fun. There’s something about watching the landscape shift outside the window that makes the miles fly by.

Just after 5:10pm in the afternoon we pulled up to the hotel, road weary yet excited. The front desk crew greeted us like old friends, smiles all around. They walked us through everything we needed to know and even handed over vouchers for a welcome drink. Sweet idea, though it missed the mark for me I do not drink alcohol and sugary drinks aren’t my thing either. Maybe next time they could keep a crisp sparkling water or something similar on standby for folks like me.

The next morning, still riding the high of a great breakfast, I stopped at the concierge desk. All I wanted was to lock in a deep-tissue massage for Saturday the thirty first. No fuss. Within minutes I had two bookings: mine at one in the afternoon for an hour, and another at 2:15pm for my friend, half an hour, my treat.

Fast-forward to Saturday. I strolled into the spa at 12:50pm, already melting into relaxation mode, only to hear the therapist say she had just taken someone else for my slot. My jaw nearly hit the floor. I asked when that person had booked and, sure enough, they would reserved about five hours after I did. Any spa worth its salt sticks to first-come, first-served scheduling, not whoever wanders in first. They offered to fit me in the next day, but I was checking out.
