Best Kept Secret in The Bahamas
The elegance of this hotel is breathtaking. While there are surely more upscale hotels in Nassau, the British Colonial is a strong competitor. I stay there for business, and its location is perfectly situated--near the airport and restaurants. Their bar and restaurants offer simple to fine dining options. Their service staff is exceptional--both professional and friendly. They will continue to be my go-to hotel for business, but for those who wish to have a resort experience, please consider them as an option.

House keeping jobs were not up to par. Always missing items and I even saw one dirty towel dropped in room floor taken out from wash room. There were lizards (Ugly) in the room. Replenishment of coffee supplies were always incomplete. Breakfast on the last day had old potatoes served (may be from previous day) Breads were Not fresh and for $43 breakfast was not worth
