Is there a daily bus between la romana and santo domingo? If so what time does it leave. Also can someone recommend a nice hotel in or near la romana that is not an AI that I can stay for just one night? I am trying to decide between flying into santiago or la romana which are the two cities that AA has special fares to next week.

Buses supposedly leave La Romana for SDQ all day long, from early morning to late evening. We just moved to La Romana and haven't yet done this but have been told it's easy, cheap, a good way to go. Think the name of the company is Express?

For hotels, the biggest, nicest one here is casa de campo. I haven't been inside any of the others, but the Hotel Olimpo looks OK from the outside. You could also stay in Bayahibe, it's only a short cab ride from the la romana airport.

Santiago

I would go into Santiago.. it's cheaper airfare, better airport, larger city, more hotels, and a better road to SD. The Hotel Gran Almirante is a great one-nighter especially if you like a nice casino.

There is a new hotel in La Romana called Riverview Hotel. I haven't been there myself but have spoken to people who stayed there and they said it was pretty nice and clean. Phone number is 1 - 809 - 556 - 1181

I stayed myself in hotel Olympio and I agree it looks nice on the outside and that is as far as it goes !!!! I wouldn't recommend anybody staying there !!! Be it not for the rooms than be it for the noise.

CB.
