British Colonial Hilton
Bahamas hotels - the British Colonial Hilton in Nassau features a beautiful location, affordable rates and excellent service.
|
More Info:
Ideally located on a beautiful private beach, this is one of the most historically famous Bahamas hotels. Situated within 5 minutes walk of Nassau's shopping and financial center. The British Colonial Hilton was previously the site of the Old Fort Nassau and currently offers guests a luxurious blend of business and pleasure.
Situated on Bay Street in Nassau’s city centre, the hotel is just minutes from the port and within 20 minutes of the airport.
The British Colonial has reigned continuously over the waterfront for 100 years, longer than any other hotel in town. Its classic-colonial architecture, prime eight-acre location and beachside swimming pool provided some of the most memorable backdrops in James Bond movie history. The hotel played key rolls in 1965's Thunderball and 1983's Never Say Never Again.
Today's British Colonial claims the only private beach at Nassau’s city center. An ideal home base for vacationers, it offers not only the beach and a freshwater pool but lush tropical gardens, a full fitness center, and an on-site scuba-diving and snorkeling facility.
Equally suited for business travelers in "the Zurich of the tropics," the Hilton presides at the heart of Nassau's financial district, just 20 minutes from the Nassau International Airport.
The city itself has been reborn in recent years, due to millions of dollars in civic upgrades. The spruced-up Old World-style plaza – flanked by Nassau’s nineteenth-century parliament buildings – brings a new sense of vibrancy to a downtown that still employs horse-drawn surreys and directs traffic with bobbies in trim white jackets and colorful pith helmets.
Nearby Attractions:
Featuring 291 rooms and suites, the hotel offers an array of recreational facilities, including a private beach, freshwater swimming pool overlooking the ocean, full fitness centre, lush tropical gardens, non-motorized water sports, snorkelling and scuba facilities and shops. Golf is available nearby. The hotel offers more than 7,500 sq. ft. of function space, including a ballroom, boardroom, banquet room and meeting rooms.
Amenities:
- Five minutes from the Casinos
- Minutes walk to the famous straw market
- Full service Azure Spa & fine recreation
- Downtown location with private beach

Caribbean Travel Tip
Travel Insurance
Travel insurance is the best way to protect yourself against financial loss. The most useful plan is a comprehensive policy that includes coverage for trip cancellation and interruption, default, trip delay, and medical expenses (with a waiver for preexisting conditions).
Without insurance, you will lose all or most of your money if you cancel your trip or have to cut it short, regardless of the reason. Default insurance covers you if your tour operator, airline, or cruise line goes out of business. Trip-delay covers unforeseen expenses that you may incur due to bad weather or mechanical delays. Study the fine print when comparing policies.
For overseas travel, one of the most important components of travel insurance is its medical coverage. Supplemental health insurance will pick up the cost of your medical bills should you get sick or injured while traveling.
U.S. residents should note that Medicare generally does not cover health-care costs outside the United States, nor do many privately issued policies.
Residents of the United Kingdom can buy an annual travel-insurance policy valid for most vacations taken during the year in which the coverage is purchased.
If you are pregnant or have a pre-existing condition, make sure you're covered.
Always buy travel insurance directly from an insurance company or agent; if you buy it from a cruise line, airline, or tour operator that goes out of business, you probably will not be covered for the agency or operator's default, a major risk. Before you make any purchase, review your existing health and home-owner's policies to find out whether they cover expenses incurred while traveling.
