Where Hotel Platino sits and where we stop
Hotel Platino Santiago sits in the business district near the Estadio Cibao, on a side street off the Autopista Duarte approach into the city. It is a smaller property than the Hodelpa towers, with a single ground-floor lobby entrance and no separate parking gate, so the driver pulls straight up to the door. Because it is on the near side of Santiago, closer to the airport road than downtown, the ride tends to land at the shorter end of the 15 to 25 minute range.
