Newly renovated, nice downtown hotel
The hotel just opened in Dec 2023 after a complete renovation so everything is clean and new. Lots of lounge chairs at the pool and beach which were never overly crowded, but the beach is small. Cruise ship port is next to the property so ships come and go every morning and late afternoon/early evening, but you can’t hear them. Overall great stay with friendly attentive staff.

2/10 Poor

Horrible. I have stayed here 20 times since 2005. Even the hotel staff disparages the new foreign ownership. The hotel did not process the $42 credit on two separate occasions only to have to please ten times to get refunded. My visa had $760 fraudulent charges on it where the hotel said wait 7-10 days it’s just our system we can write you a letter. The bathroom had feces on the toilet seat and hair balls on the floor. The cheese was rotten at dinner where I threw up into my towel. I will never stay here again people should be forewarned

8/10 Very Good

great potential let down by 2 poor choices.
very beautiful building and very well maintained. The pool is the perfect temperature and the bar is just incredible. Great location too as right in the heart of Nassau so you can easily get to the top attractions and get a proper local meal. The two big issues with this hotel are: 1 they let in people from the cruise ships, so the pool can be totally overrun with people who aren't paying. Second issue was that the internal restaurants are a bit dull and over priced for what they were. Room service especially needs a revamp.

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.
