Just steps away from history, architecture and entertainment for all ages

Billini Hotel is located in the heart of the colonial city of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, about a 30-minute drive from Las Américas-JFPG International Airport. From here it is just moments to the city’s most popular attractions, historical sites and things to do. Whether you’re interested in Santo Domingo’s architectural treasures, bustling nightlife or rich history, our boutique hotel is the perfect locale for discovering the top attractions in the city. Significant historical monuments from the Spanish Colonial era surround Billini Hotel. The oldest cathedral in the Americas, the Basilica Santa Maria Cathedral of the Incarnation, is only a five-minute walk from our door. Christopher Columbus’s 500-year-old home is also within walking distance, along with a host of other 16th century cathedrals, museums and landmarks. 

 

Come to Billini Hotel and experience Spanish Colonial history like you’ve never seen it before. Our 24-hour concierge is available to make sightseeing recommendations or arrange for tours of the Zona Colonial or a nearby chocolate or cigar plantation.
