Unpassende Lage; sehr laut; inkompetentes Personal das nachts!! Unerlaubt ins Zimmer kommt; jeden Tag muss man die Schlüsselkarte fürs Zimmer aktualisieren lassen; verstopfte Toiletten oder außer Funktion ##### Kaleena Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Abdul , Devner, CO Apr 10, 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Don't book this hotel We had a terrible experience at this hotel. Our doors would not lock, we had to go downstairs every time to get new magnet keys. They don't do basic room services for days and you have to keep chasing them just to get clean towels. On our check out we got charged almost an extra $400 dollars supposedly because we got charged for 2 rooms even though the one room had nobody in it for 3 days. We debated them for hours and it got to the point where we almost missed our flight back to the US so I just paid. I had booked like 9 rooms and had an issue with just about every room. It was just not a good hotel, the upper level personal were horrible, there is no management to get a hold of. So only book this hotel if you have to, just overall bad. The worst hotel we've ever stayed at. My group and I travel somewhere new twice a year for the last 8 years and this was our worst experience hotel wise. The bartender, the chef, and some of the night staff were really good though. They actually tried to make things better and tried to explain the issues. ##### Abdul Stayed 10 nights in Dec 2017 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Apr 4, 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The hotel that I intended to book in the website is NH Hotel Punta Cana. Although after booking the photo still to be NH Hotel, the actual booking transferred to 'Hotel Merengue Punta Cana' for some reason. We took the taxi to NH Hotel and then found out no reservation there. Then have to take another taxi to this unexpected 'Hotel Merengue Punta Cana'. Both facilities, location are not as what we expected when make the booking for NH hotel. No hot water for the shower. The staff can't speak appropriate English, which is very difficult to make order for the breakfast. Also we realised that we have overcharged for the exchange local currency to US dollars when paying the hotel fee afterward. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Apr 2, 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Had no hot water. Had problems with locking the doors. Sheets were dirty. And there was a cockroach in the room. The only good thing was the breakfast. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### sylvie, Quebec, Canada Feb 27, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service #### Propre \-personnel à rentrer dans ma chambre à minuit -eau chaude très difficile presque inexistante. -personnel de chambre parfaite - manque de mobilier. ##### sylvie Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Feb 20, 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Not worth the money Hotel water went out after first night. It was no water for 2 days. Toilet could not flush. No wash clothes. No safe in the room as advertised. Very disappointing ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller May 11, 2017 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Wouldn't stay here again We were only staying one night so I assume that's why we didn't get a very nice room. Tired and dated and rough around the edges. There was a conjoining door to another room which didn't provide much sound proofing - you could hear talking and the television from the room next door. Air con was good and so was the WIFI. Woman at reception wasn't the most friendly. The lady who served breakfast was lovely - although breakfast was random (mashed potatoes, ham and egg, followed by a nice fresh fruit salad) ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### David Mar 25, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### It was ok for a short stay The first day of my stay the hot water wasn't working the wifi in the rooms wasn't working when your information clearly says rooms have wifi and the safe was broken in the room I was unable to lock/secure my valuables had to walk around with them on me as I said for a short stay it was ok you guys need to do better and stop with the false advertising ##### David ### 10/10 Excellent #### Roselyn Mar 18, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Highly Recommend to friends. We originally planned to stay for two nights, but decided to spend our entire week at the Merengue. We found the staff extremely friendly and helpful, especially Tomas, Luis and Mari. It's in a great location close to the beach and all of the excellent restaurants. Very relaxing atmosphere and reasonable price. Family friendly. ##### Roselyn ### 2/10 Terrible #### Juan Jose Mar 6, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Muy mala experiencia, al llegar al hotel no tenia reserva hecha, me dijeron que no trabajaban con Hotel.com ##### Juan Jose ### 4/10 Poor #### Grausammes Hote Mar 1, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lasst bloß die Finger von dem Hotel! Zimmer muffig Wir waren nur für eine Nacht dort und das reichte auch. Die Zimmer sind total muffig und nicht sauber. Die Betten schlecht. Frühstück schlecht. Der Strand in Hotelnähe dreckig! ##### Grausammes Hote ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Feb 3, 2017 Liked: Staff & service #### Nice hotel for short stays The hotel has a nice placement, you can get to the beach in less than a 5 minute walked, it has several places to eat nearby, ranging from local food to something more "gourmet". On a 10 minute drive you will find the usual suspects, Burger King, Dennis, Subway among others. The staff on the hotel is very nice and try to help you as best as they can, but take a deep breath while doing your checking it will take a while. The facilities are what you could describe with "Plain and Normal" so don't spec anything more in your room than the bed, a tv and towel, your are getting what you paid for, although they have a nice poll. There are only double bed rooms or a king sized bed ones, so carefully thing how an uneven group will sleep before doing the reservation. ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Merengue Hotel, PuntA cana Jan 8, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Boa hospedagem Boa ##### Merengue Hotel ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Aug 29, 2016 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort They cancelled our reservation without telling us, when we arrived we had no place to sleep because the hotel was full. The receptionist just laughed and told us sorry it was cancelled at 2:30 ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Francisco, São Paulo Jun 14, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Muito Bom! Bom. ##### Francisco ### 2/10 Terrible #### Elena, Москва Apr 4, 2016 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### УЖАС УЖАС! Воды горячей нет, полотенца рваные, кондиционер шумный, звукоизоляции никакой. Отель стоит на дороге, рядом рок-кафе с ежедневными рок-дискотеками до 5 утра. ##### Elena ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Mar 29, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### The hotel was nice and close to the beach The hotel had the nicest staff I had ever met. If we needed help the hotel staff would go out of their way to help us. Hotel is close to the beach and there's always a ride available. Hotel is protected by security 24hours a day. Felt very safe and welcomed. The breakfast was awesome and the pool was beautiful. There's nice restaraunts right across the street next to two markets and a gift shop. I would recommend this hotel for the price. ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Amy, Los Ángeles Mar 28, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service #### Nice stay Cool stay. The night life was good. Came for semana santa , there were lots of tourist so the beach was full and active. Nice stay overall ##### Amy ### 6/10 Okay #### Arno, Brazil Mar 9, 2016 Liked: Staff & service #### Hotel simples Hotel bom, transporte até a praia. Funcionários atenciosos. ##### Arno ### 2/10 Terrible #### Federico H, Buenos Aires Mar 7, 2016 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Malo La mayoria de los que trabajaban alli no eran cordiales. En la habitación el techo y baño tenian hongos, nunca hubo productos en el mini bar. El desayuno si pedias un cafe, no tenias cuchara para revolver, o el azucar o servilleta, ademas de la poca variedad en la comida que tenias que pedir y con suerte te traian la mitad de las cosas. Nada recomendable el lugar. ##### Federico H ### 4/10 Poor #### Felipe, Bogotá, CO Feb 22, 2016 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Not recommendable The room was badly damaged : Humidity on the ceiling, the unpainted furniture, lack of maintenance. The shower rusty and leaking water. Stained toilet. Lack of maintenance. The bed uncomfortable. For the price and the 3 star ranking, I was expecting much more . The staff attention was very regular, staff need so much service attitude . ##### Felipe ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Feb 19, 2016 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Pernoite Meu vôo chegou tarde em Punta Cana e reservei este hotel apenas para fazer um pernoite, pois no dia seguinte fui para outro local. No geral, achei a localização do hotel boa, tem restaurantes, alguns mercados e um comércio local em volta. Fica próximo da praia, cerca de 10 minutos à pé e tem ponto de táxi bem próximo. O hotel parece antigo, condições gerais do quarto e banheiro precárias, por conta do uso, mas não estava sujo. Café da manhã bastante simples. Em resumo, para uma estadia longa, não espere nada muito confortável, mas para quebrar um galho de uma ou duas noites no máximo, até que é viável. ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### gaetan, Lévis, Québec Feb 14, 2016 #### Beaucoup de potentiel mais mal exploité On avait réservé 2 chambres avec 2 lits doubles et nous avons eu une chambre lit Queen et une chambre 2 lits doubles . Le petit bar était vide à l'exception de 2 bouteilles d'eau que nous avons dû payer à 152 pesos. Le coffre-fort n'était pas fonctionel. En général très déçu de notre séjour. ##### gaetan ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Feb 11, 2016 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Reasonable plain small hotel in downtown Bavaro OK for price but drab, little hot water, beat-up towels, noisy. Nice staff. Only few blocks from beach and across street from good restaurants ##### Verified traveller ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Dreams Onyx Resort & Spa All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Dreams-Onyx-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h14822885.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Alltra Punta Cana All-Inclusive Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Dreams-Punta-Cana-Resort-Spa.h1151641.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Sirenis Punta Cana Resort & Aquagames - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Grand-Sirenis-Punta-Cana-Resort-Aquagames-All-Inclusive.h1691881.Hotel-Information) > > [Dreams Cap Cana Resort & Spa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Dreams-Cap-Cana-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h87746671.Hotel-Information) > > [Margaritaville Island Reserve Cap Cana Hammock - An Adults Only Karisma All-Inclusive Experience](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Margaritaville-Island-Reserve-Cap-Cana.h66365793.Hotel-Information) > > [Nickelodeon Hotels & Resorts Punta Cana, Gourmet All Inclusive by Karisma](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Nickelodeon-Hotels-Resorts-Punta-Cana.h13145542.Hotel-Information) > > [TRS Cap Cana Waterfront & Marina Hotel - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-TRS-Cap-Cana-Hotel-Adults-Only.h9475014.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Hyatt-Ziva-Cap-Cana-All-Inclusive.h33291189.Hotel-Information) > > [El Beso Adults Only At Ocean El Faro - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Ocean-El-Faro-El-Beso-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive.h33992050.Hotel-Information) > > [Excellence El Carmen - Adults Only All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Excellence-El-Carmen-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive.h12570728.Hotel-Information) > > [TAN Resorts Marina Cap Cana - All-Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Ancora-Cap-Cana-Marina-Resort-Villas.h4630295.Hotel-Information) > > [Breathless Punta Cana Resort & Spa - Adults Only - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Breathless-Punta-Cana-Resort-Spa-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive.h6411385.Hotel-Information) > > [Ocean El Faro Resort - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Ocean-El-Faro-Resort-All-Inclusive.h27395552.Hotel-Information) > > [Zoetry Agua Punta Cana - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Zoetry-Agua-Punta-Cana.h1619286.Hotel-Information) > > [Secrets Cap Cana Resort & Spa - Adults Only - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Secrets-Cap-Cana-Resort-Spa-Adults-Only.h15009329.Hotel-Information) > > [Bahia Principe Luxury Ambar - Adults Only - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Bahia-Principe-Luxury-Ambar-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive.h1937218.Hotel-Information) > > [Playa Palmera Beach Resort ](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Playa-Palmera-Beach-Resort.h92020868.Hotel-Information) > > [Eden Roc Cap Cana](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Eden-Roc-Cap-Cana.h4423875.Hotel-Information) > > [ Live Aqua Punta Cana - All Inclusive - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Infiniti-Punta-Cana.h34297468.Hotel-Information) > > [Dreams Macao Beach Punta Cana - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Dreams-Macao-Punta-Cana.h38966191.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Zilara Cap Cana ‐ Adults Only ‐ All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Hyatt-Zilara-Cap-Cana-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive.h33302741.Hotel-Information) > > [Punta Cana Seven Beaches](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Punta-Cana-Seven-Beaches.h16404182.Hotel-Information) > > [Finest Punta Cana by The Excellence Collection - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Finest-Punta-Cana.h42643300.Hotel-Information) > > [Excellence Punta Cana - Adults Only All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Excellence-Punta-Cana-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive.h982733.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in New York](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels.d178293.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Four Points by Sheraton Puntacana Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Four-Points-By-Sheraton-Puntacana-Village.h5395756.Hotel-Information) > > [Royalton CHIC Punta Cana, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort & Casino – Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Royalton-CHIC-Punta-Cana-Resort-Spa-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive.h8717923.Hotel-Information)
