Frommer's Review
A Las Vegas-style palace, this 10-story hotel lies on the 6-hectare (15-acre) site of the old Jaragua (Ha-ra-gwa) Hotel, which was popular in Trujillo's day. Open since 1988, it's a splashy, pink-colored waterfront palace that doesn't have the dignity and class of the Hotel Santo Domingo. For example, the casino and bars are often rife with prostitutes plying their trade. Located off the Malecón and convenient to the city's major attractions and shops, the hotel consists of two separate buildings: the 10-story Jaragua Tower and the two-level Jaragua Gardens Estate. Jaragua has the largest casino in the Caribbean, a 1,000-seat Vegas-style showroom, a cabaret theater, and a dance club. The luxurious rooms, the largest in Santo Domingo, feature multiple phones, refrigerators, and marble bathrooms with large makeup mirrors and tub/shower combinations.
The Jaragua features some of the best hotel dining in the city. You can enjoy tasty Dominican barbecue and some of Santo Domingo's best steaks.
Facilities:
Restaurant; 2 bars; outdoor pool; casino; tennis center with 4 lit clay courts and pro shop; health club and spa; salon; room service; babysitting; laundry service; dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms; dance club
