Looking for any suggestions or recommendations for hotels close to Olympic Stadium in Santo Domingo. I will stay the night so as not to have to drive or park near or at Olympic Stadium. I will Uber from the Hotel so it doesn't have to be walking distance . Thanks

Embassy Suites or Aladino.

One is a big hotel above Silver Sun Gallery. The other is small though decent modern hotel behind the Honda or Barna Business School. Both in Naco.

Barcelo is right on the corner.

Also Barcelo Santo Domingo, its the closest that you can go walking. Get a Taxi is very complicated. I think the Courtyard will be open by this month and is located to walking distance.

The closest to the Olympic Stadium is the Aladino. The distance is noticed even more if getting there from the hotel happens to be during rush hour, especially if the OP is going to Uber to the place.

Am I the only one who thinks finding a hotel room for the concert is not going to be easy?

I'd bet most were sold within hours of the concert being announced.

Why do you say a taxi will be complicated? I stayed in the Holiday Inn Santo Domingo near Blue Mall a month ago and Uber was very easy.
Is the part of Santo Domingo near the stadium more complicated for UBER or do you say this because of the concert?

Because of the Concert, imagine 40,000 people getting out at the same time.

Barcelo is a good option. I thought the concert wasn't approved? Maybe old news. You will like the Barcelo.

Turey. Not upscale but good for location for what we needed. Close food store and Ubereats great. Years ago, listened to J. Bieber concert from our balcony. Not that we wanted to.

Yes, I agree. I've stayed at both Turey and Alvear. Amigos Supermarket(very nice), and Farmacia Carol a short walk away. Fully equipped kitchen. Suited my needs.

Many years ago, we stayed at the Hotel Lina which is now the Barcelo Santo Domingo. Juan Luis Guerra had a concert at Estadio Olimpico and while in the room we good hear it very well. Just thought I would throw some " back in the day " out there.

I can’t think of the old Hotel Lina without remembering their paella.
