Frommer's Review
The staff at this inn devote much of their energy to the property's popular pub and restaurant, The Pub, which is run by the New England Culinary Institute, but they also rent some very pleasant rooms. The hotel was built in 1960 on the ruins of a 17th-century Dutch fort, and is covered with flowering vines. The rooms are set at a higher elevation than any others in Road Town, offering excellent views from private terraces to the waterfront below. Simple, sun-flooded, and cozy, the rooms have a colonial charm and a feeling of relaxed warmth. The suite rentals are a bit expensive, but the regular doubles are spacious enough and have recently been refurbished. There's a pool on the grounds, and guests can walk to Garden Bay Beach or Smuggler's Cove Beach in just 3 minutes. The hotel's major competitor is Fort Recovery Beachfront Villas, which is also built around the ruins of a sugar mill.

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.
