Hi there! I just read an add for this hotel and was wondering where exactly on the malecon is it? It says on their website is in the malecon center on G. Washington #500. Is this right on the intersction with M. Gomez ?? Enquiring minds want to know ! Going back in Sept. and they have comparable rates to my base hotel, El Napolitano. Thanks in advance. E

It's by El Napolitano and Intercontinental. El Malecon really is not that long. Anywhere you go on El Malecon is close enough.

I wouldn't call it by El Napolitano.

It's maybe 200mts from the corner of Maximo Gomez going towards Lincoln.
I was under the impression it's not open yet.

I did not mean that it was by it. I just meant to say that El Malecon is not that long and it would still be nearby.

Not close enough to walk. I'm guessing that The Hilton is about 1.5-2 miles from The Intercontinental.

I just returned yesterday from the D.R. There were many workers outside the Hilton Hotel, working feverishly in attempts to get the hotel ready to open by tomorrow, 7/12. Did not look as though they could do it, but my opinion was formed while riding by on G. Washington Ave.

Passed by this afternoon. Still a lot of workers, material and equipment present outside. Probably the same stuff 'KoD' saw.

But who says it has to be completely finished to open?

Better call and check before you make your reservation, gardito
