My husband and I are over 55 and we were looking for a small hotel where we can bring our dog. It was our first trip in the Republic Dominican and the owners where always there to help us and answer our questions. It was pleasant to be able to talk directly with them at any time of the day... more

Stayed at Hotel Alegria for five days in late December. The staff is wonderful and very friendly. The location is great and everything you need is in walking distance. The rooms are exactly what you see in their photos. They are comfotable, clean and each has a safe (I was in room 33 which has an ocean view and AC).... more

The owners and the staff of this hotel are all special people who will allow you to feel personally cared for. Even the hotel dog greets you when you arrive! This is just the right place for a single traveler. Other guests are friendly, good people who you will enjoy getting to know in a comfortable, cozy environment. Get an... more

For the cheap/affordable price that I paid, I could not have been more satisfied. One of the aspects of this hotel that I liked the most was the feeling of complete relaxation. The owners of the hotel met every demand/need that we had. With the hotel being literally right on the beach, this satisfied my need to frequently lay by... more

I'm 23 from Washington D.C. and a buddy and I stayed at Hotel Alegria from Dec. 26 to Jan. 3rd 2008 for New Year's Eve--and really enjoyed it.

The room was comfortable -- not too hot --... more

We spent 5 nights in Hotel Alegria for New Year's 2007, and it was ok. We ordered a room with a balcony with ocean view, which was really nice. We also paid $10 extra for AC which was totally unnecessary (and one day the rain came in through our AC). The service at the hotel was ok, the staff were... more

Small place, old rooms and smelly. It needs a complete overhaull, this place. Location is great . more

It was a decent stay after we switch rooms. Be SURE to get a room facing the ocean (called ocean view) b/c without that ocean breeze the rooms without A/C are UNBELIEVABLY HOT!! We had a clock that had a thermometer on it and it was 95 degrees in our room with 2 fans. So spend the money and get... more

We were checking rates next door at the Sans Souci and trying to coordinate with friends in town when I spotted a sweet deck with a jacuzzi and the best view in town. It was on top of the Hotel Alegria, but my friend and I thought we wouldn't be able to afford it on our budget (Peacecorps member and... more
