British Colonial Hilton - Nassau

One night stay before boarding the Aqua Cat for a week of scuba diving. Loved the hotel. Picturesque, quiet, and lovely decor. Beach and pool just a few steps from the hotel. Close to town and all that Nassau has to offer.

Definitely was not expecting this from Hilton. The overall condition of the hotel does not match the cost. Things like internet which is complimentary in most hotels was only complimentary here when you joined Hilton Rewards. Then the internet connection was constantly dropping. Maybe it is a result of the age of the building or some corporate policies but at this hotel there were just too many fees and the hotel condition was not up to par. The upside, the service was excellent and the staff is very professional!!!!

We have stayed at the British Colonial Hilton every year for about 6 years. We continue to stay here as it is so centrally located to everything downtown that we want to see and do, and the hotel has a great pool/beach area. the rooms need renovating. I say this every time we go and still have not been booked into any room that has quality to match the price you pay. With the new hotel & condos going in right next door the Hilton had better pull their socks up to compete with a true luxury hotel. At close to $300 CDN a night I was NOT impressed. If it wasn't for the close proximity to downtown as mentioned we would have stayed elsewhere in Nassau. Next year we plan to look around and might just stay further away and taxi in for the downtown shopping.

The location is really good because it’s in the middle of everything. Just next to it are restaurants, bars and souvenirs shops, Straw Market, Pirates Museum and walking distance to Queen’s Staircase. Get nice and cheap food from the huts on left of the beach. The private beach is really clean with good views comparing to other beaches in Nassau. Hotel condition is good and clean. It’s an Historical Building. The only set back is the front desk customer service. Not friendly, no smiles and slow.
