The Gardens Hotel Review

Built in 1875, this gloriously shaded property covers a third of a city block in Old Town, among orchids, ponytail palms, black bamboo, walks, fountains, and earthen pots imported from Cuba. The romantic inn offers several types of accommodations, from standard rooms with garden and courtyard views to a two-bedroom carriage house suite. Decorated with Bahamian plantation-style furnishings, the quiet and elegant rooms are a luxurious tropical retreat. Most have private verandas.

    Some aspects of this hotel are luxurious: excellent breakfast, including a daily hot item available to supplement the continental breakfast items. However, in the garden rooms, internet service was spotty. We didn't have access to the main building at night, so accessing the internet forced us to sit outside where the mosquitos were terrible. The televisions are quite small, and there's almost no storage space for clothing.
