I love Holiday Inn La Sabana

I led a school group of 9 people, divided into 7 rooms. Everyone had a very pleasant stay, and the staff at Holiday Inn La Sabana is first rate. Excellent care and attention, and wonderful breakfast. The food options at Chi Chis could be better, though, and less expensive. Otherwise, a great hotel! I'll be back again in the future.
