Frommer's Review

El Greco Hotel -- This hotel is across the street from Junkanoo Beach/Lighthouse Beach/The Western Esplanade and a short walk from Arawak Cay's sometimes raucous nightlife. It's also a quick walk from the shops and restaurants of downtown Nassau. El Greco is a well-managed bargain choice that attracts many European travelers. The Greek owners and staff genuinely seem to care about their guests -- in fact, the two-story hotel seems more like a small European B&B than your typical Bahamian hotel.

The midsize rooms aren't that exciting, but they're clean and comfortable, with decent beds and small tile bathrooms with tub/showers. Bedrooms have a bright decor -- a sort of Mediterranean motif, each with two ceiling fans and carpeted floors. Accommodations are built around a courtyard that encompasses bougainvillea-draped statues that were crafted in the Italian baroque style. There's no restaurant on-site, but you can walk to many places nearby for meals.

Facilities:
Bar; pool; babysitting

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
