Approx hotel star rating
Based on 47 reviews

Official Description

A Lifestyle 4-star property in Dominican Republic, located in the center of La Ciudad Primada de América, the Colonial City of Santo Domingo. An area known for its history, monuments, shopping, restaurants and nightlife. The European hotel with minimalist design approach features 93 guestrooms (with 43 available rooms so far), divided in two historical buildings interconnected at the lobby level and the Roof Top. The 10.000 square feet terrace on the top of the building offers an incredible view of the surrounding Colonial City, Faro a Colón and the Juan Bosch bridge that connects the city to the Zona Oriental (Eastern City). Upon entering the hotel, you are welcomed by a magnificent 2-story lobby with a mezzanine overlooking the guest area, whose jungle feeling is the main attraction. The colors and the reminders to the Monstera leaves can be found all throughout the hotel, not only as art on display but also within wallcoverings, furnishings and fabrics. The Check In experience is an introduction to the Grand Hotel Europa new style created from the backdrop, reception desks, the scent that distinguishes our hotel to the hospitality and genuine service that characterizes our Dominican people. Gran Hotel Europa is located in the center of the Colonial City of Santo Domingo, a few steps from the most important historic monuments of the First City of America, surrounded by restaurants with a wide gastronomic diversity and bars that promise to keep our visitors entertained. Gran Hotel Europa has a privileged location at only 35 minutes from Las Americas International Airport and 45 minutes from Boca Chica beach, one of the main beaches in Santo Domingo. The hotel is located 500 mts from the First Cathedral of America, 300 mts from Alcázar de Colón and 4 kms from Agora Mall, one of the most important malls in Santo Domingo.

Stay away from this hotel. Terrible experience!

30 Apr 2025
We stayed at the hotel (a couple with two small children) for one night after a long flight to Santo Domingo. Before we received the room, the hotel staff was already aware that there was a problem with the hot water in some of the rooms, but they did not bother to inform us. When we went to shower in the evening, we were surprised to find there was no hot water. When we approached the front desk, we were told that they were aware of the issue and were trying to fix it, but it remained unresolved throughout our entire stay. We were forced to shower in cold water. The receptionist promised that we wouldn’t be charged for the night and that the responsible manager would handle the matter in the morning. We left the hotel around 9:30 AM; unsurprisingly, the manager had not yet arrived. However, the shift supervisor spoke with us and promised that the issue was being handled and that we would receive an email that same day explaining how the refund would be processed. Three days later, we had yet to be contacted. Only after we reached out to the hotel again did we receive a surprising response stating that they had no intention of refunding us for the night, claiming that such issues are normal and acceptable. Despite repeated attempts to contact them again, we were completely ignored. We were left with no choice but to warn anyone considering staying at this hotel — don’t do it. We have never had such a bad experience anywhere we’ve stayed before. Highly not recommended!!!

pretty good option

We came here with a large group as part of a work trip. They had trouble finding our reservation, even when I showed a printed copy. It took several people quite a long time (45+ minutes) to figure it out. Then one of my colleagues was given an already occupied room. They moved her to a different room which had a broken air conditioner, so they eventually moved her to a third room. The rooms were fine. I was lucky to get a corner room with windows, but some of my colleagues got smaller windowless rooms. The bathroom was nice. The room had a very full minibar/fridge, a desk, and an iron. Breakfast was good. Every day had fruit and pastries, then the hot food changed daily- eggs, fried salami, fried cheese, mangu, boiled plantains, sausage. It's up on the covered, open-air rooftop. The location is fantastic- really easy to walk around the Zona Colonial. The street in front is narrow so if you're being dropped off by car, you either have to jump out quickly or pull around to their parking garage. The housekeepers were so sweet! They helped several of us with the very difficult-to-use air conditioners. Overall, not my favorite hotel but a solid choice if you have a large group.

Very bad experience

31 Jan 2025
We booked Gran Hotel Europa to travel agency and everything was paid in advance when we arive today for our second stay they told us that they don't have room for us and they will send us to another hotel. Even they told us that they will send us to a very good hotel, the hotel was not in the same range. When we arive to the hotel they told us that we have to pay because Gran Hotel Europa will pay till monday. We refuse to do that and finally they give us a room at the hotel they send us. This is unaceptable.

Tripadvisor Overview

Lifestyle property in Dominican Republic, located in the center of La Ciudad Primada de América, the Colonial City of Santo Domingo. An area known for its history, monuments, shopping, restaurants and nightlife. The hotel with minimalist design features 93 guestrooms is divided in two historical buildings interconnected at the lobby level and the Roof Top. The 10.000 square feet terrace on the top of the building offers an incredible view of the surrounding Colonial City, Faro a Colón and the Juan Bosch bridge that connects the city to the Zona Oriental (Eastern City). Our Cuisine is based on local ingredients, and a fancy but down-to-earth cocktail bar. As a lifestyle Hotel, GRAN HOTEL EUROPA is rooted in the mentality that authentic local experiences are the key to successful travel experiences, both in business and leisure. Upon entering the hotel, you are welcomed by a magnificent story lobby with a mezzanine overlooking the guest area, whose jungle feeling is the main attraction. The colors and the reminders to the Monstera leaves can be found all throughout the hotel, not only as art on display but also within wallcoverings, furnishings and fabrics. The Check In experience is an introduction to the Grand Hotel Europa new style created from the backdrop, reception desks, the scent that distinguishes our hotel to the hospitality and genuine service that characterizes our Dominican people. The design of Gran Hotel Europa highlights the local culture using a mix of rustic and modern materials, and local fabrics to create memorable experiences with a commitment to authenticity, sophistication, mastery and innovation. Our corridors, main lobby and other areas are brought to life with original paintings by Wander Matos who shows the most deep-rooted essence of the Dominican culture.
