Renovated hotel but service in all areas is lacking. Took over an hour to get a bowl of soup in the restaurant. Coffee bar does not take room charge or cash or American Express. Please beware check out per person takes over 10 minutes. Room smells like Clorox and we had no hot water in the shower. During the day, the area is very safe, but after the cruise ships leave and the store is closed. Please be careful.

Beautiful property however bathrooms were not as clean as we would have expected (mold on tile and around bathtub). Staff could use some motivation; most barely smiled. Outside of this, the property is close and within walking distance of the Nassau Cruise Port, restaurants, shopping, Arawak Fish Fry, and Junkanoo Beach.

Wouldn’t recommend

Never experienced service so poor - staff are quite lazy and rude and generally don’t seem motivated. Few exceptions, but mostly consistent across the whole hotel. There’s also a bit of a culture to rip you off - so you need to monitor all charges etc.

When we checked in we were told we'd have an ocean view and it was actullay a view of McDonald's and the street. At 1:30am someone from the hotel knocked on the door and said there was an alert or alarm going off from our room. Then at 7:00am someone else from the hotel knocked at our door asking if we were with an airline company. The next morning we had the buffet breakfast and the waitress never came back to the table to bring me coffee or the water I asked for. When we checked out and complained about them knocking at our door in the middle of the night, she didn't even apologize, but questioned me like I was not telling the truth. We were so very disappointed in this hotel!

I chose the British Colonial Hotel because it was listed as a four-star property on Expedia, and I needed a reliable place to stay during a difficult time. This was not a planned vacation—I traveled to Nassau for my uncle’s funeral. Unfortunately, my experience with this hotel was disappointing and stressful. First, the condition of the bathroom was unacceptable. The shower had visible mold, and the tub had a dirty ring around it that clearly hadn’t been cleaned properly. I informed the manager the same day I checked in, but nothing was done. That night, I had to leave for a family viewing and didn’t have a chance to follow up. By the next morning, the grime and filth were still there. I immediately called the front desk again, but still no action was taken. After returning from the funeral the next day, I had no choice but to use the same dirty bathroom. For a hotel that claims to be four-star, this was incredibly disappointing. To make matters worse, the balance I was charged at check-out was higher than the one quoted in my Expedia confirmation email. My total bill for two nights, including some food, was over $1,000—far from worth it given the condition of the room and lack of service. I don’t typically leave reviews, but I felt it was important to share this experience so others know what to expect. This hotel needs to seriously reevaluate its standards for cleanliness and customer care.

Overall good stay. Property was very well maintained & staff was friendly. Beach was slightly more crowded than we liked. I urge VIP member with certain benefits to stay vigilant as it seems there are in a transition period & your benefits might not be reflecting on their end. After a few conversations & email sent they honored my benefits. Would consider staying at this location again.

The private beach was the best aspect to the hotel with the kayaks/paddleboards- witnessing ocean wildlife so close. The service/tax charge to everything was insane and came with poor service. Everything around the area closes down after all cruiseship passengers get back onto their ship. Not a good location for nightlife or dinner options.
