The most beautiful holiday, i have ever had.

The best holiday! We had the executive harbour view, we can definitely recommend. The breakfast contains everything your heart desires and the hot and cold snacks in the evening are very good. Only the in the catalogue mentioned free cocktails were rather drinks (Baileys, vodka, Gin and orange juice for mixing, wine and beer). Under cocktail i understand Caipirinha, mohito, and so on the you could in the bar take, but with 15 $per cocktail way too expensive! As a tip for the hotel i would high-end leisure suggest, the included in the price need to be! For example boating ..., jet skiing and so on read more

    The beach directly at the hotel is very nice. Perhaps the Hilton team the dark waterplants in the demarcated area subduct, this is spooky. The shopping facilities are in not even five minutes walk away. The nightlife for young people is in the week after midnight on a pub menu. Excursions could be also on foot make, there are many points of interest nearby. You feel in Nassau very safe. There are plenty of securities on the way. Beggars see you there not at all, all are doing something for money. Luxusliebhaber should another metropolitan area.

It is reasonable value for money not here. The hotel offers nothing special, is some clearly visible run down, but the name Hilton not expected. the furnishing of the rooms, although not very big, was good. In the bath is missing however possibilities to hang the towels. Unfortunately is lime not assessable. A breakfast is offered, with 22 American Dollar too expensive. Simple alternative in the environment available, but really want to be at this hotel also a good breakfast and not over the street go. The room service was very helpful and friendly and a good tip value. In ... the hotel there is internet, but only for a fee. That should also for this price included be. The hotel lies directly in the entrance the cruise ships (2-4 are daily), the also apply. It is however habituation needy at the waterfront for swimming to go. Result is also, after marine diesel smells and the noise from any other small Tourschiff directly at the beach Visitors arrive. Next door are one bar 'senior frog', where it sometimes very run promised ( Ballermann level ). Guests are too many the cruise people. All together is the location to the city very well, but it is too expensive for the offer and beach feeling came here not really on. For a whistle-stop in the town okay, but not for a pure beachurlaub suitable. read more

The british colonial offers everything, what a short stay pleasant. The rooms was well equipped with everything a modern hotel has to offer. Since we were there in the nebensaion in Nassau were, the hotel was not fully booked. We had us at breakfast in the hotel decided, around the typsche kitchen the Bahamas enjoy can. In the british colonial were mostly american, canadian and british guests. read more

    As already written the hotel has a private beach section, the for a short break absolutely sufficient is. The pool is very nice designed, but nothing special large. For a sporty swimmer safe not suitable.

    The hotel has its own beach section, but certainly not for a 14-day vacation suitable is, as the port in the immediate vicinity and from time to time a slight dieselgeruch by the oversized cruise ships direction hotel blows. The big plus for this hotel is the location. Nassau you can on foot excellent explore. By the harbor, excursions to other island be booked.

In our opinion no four stars deserves! In the bath is missing to the bags for Damenhygieneartikel. Shower gel not available. Cleanliness in the outdoor area has plenty of improvement potential. Who wants to in immediate facility in the water swim? Value for money does not fit. More than one night would be unacceptable read more

We stayed over new year's Eve on site. Our main objective was relaxation with a beach on the doorstep, the this hotel always fulfilled. The rooms are oK, cleanliness and friendliness of the staff were top, we were even tips from the hotel cleaning staff informed. The breakfast restaurant is typically American food and away! The executive lounge is in the highest floor so you have a great all around view of the it stopped at ships and a great view. For a week oK, afterwards you should Inselhoppen. read more

This is a case where you, you want the hotel justice, first of all, something to tourist structure on the Bahamas (and especially Nassaus) must say. The Bahamas have quite clearly as tourists from the USA and Canada. It is in sharp boundaries between cheap tourism (where you can get on a ferry in two days from Miami to Nassau and back). Having regard to the installations in those ships flood the streets by thousands of American Nassaus ballermann would be a analogy. No passengers are in the city everything is closed, spooky. The aim is in any case the ... tourists as much as possible as quickly as possible to draw money out of the pocket of quests, it is necessary on the way the. And it is everything really expensive (a soft drink in Nassau can quite eight bucks, a simple dinner at the Chinese ' not under 30 dollars. Next to the 'tourist' rip-off ' is of course the fact also, without exception, everything that is imported from the United States, it is not in a supermarket me only to find product Bahamian interior. Then it is the (American) tourism millionaires, the outside their 'gated communities but' and resort is not visible. Now for the Nassau (British colonial) Hilton: the is no hotel for tourists, in the heart of the city and right on the harbor, there are businessmen on missions! for this category has the Hilton people (especially due to its location) almost a monopoly, one must therefore not particularly hard and certainly not noticeable downward pressure on prices. The hotel is far below the standard of other Hilton hotels of similar size, everything seemed a little something phrase, dingy, the room cleaning is very superficially and, above all, everything is completely overpriced (boring breakfast buffet without large selection costs $22, special requests, such as the two fried eggs are not, it is not set, it is just only eggs powder mush scrambled egg and from the buffet. A small espresso four dollars. Ten dollar flat are due, if you only want to briefly use the Internet. you feel ripped off and is treated in addition, brash. At the weekends are naturally a few business travelers, as you fill his bedding differently, with American cheap tourists, the for two nights for the package approach and the hotel in a single drunk American ferienpark transform (the alcohol is duty-free on the shores of the Bahamas Islands). Sleep is difficult to find as! My conclusion: the Bahamas are no tourist destination for Europeans (except for short stop on a cruise), the Bahamas are only the tourist the backyard of the United States. read more
