Royal Palm Hotel

Lack fo hygiene, windows lockers broken, shower and sink clogged, cockroaches behind the bed , safe box broken, there was a blackout during the night for hours and nobody was there to assist. Towel and sheet with stains .it has been a nightmare. I had to stay there because was an emergency due to the unavailability of scheduled boat . If Harbour Island is overrated nowadays, this place called hotel is completely out of reality .

After staying at the Royal Palm for more than a month, and having travelled round the world and stayed in some pretty darn fancy hotels, I would rate the Royal Palm top in its class. It's not a big resort. It's not a boutique thingamajiggy. It's a really nicely run small hotel that fights far above its weight class. I still have the signed mug the staff gave for my goodbye party. Tisha, Marie, Devon and Alton (and a few names I can't read anymore!) came and threw the guest -- someone who loves Briland but ain't a personage of note -- a farewell party. They put together a perfect little outside office me as I had to -- GASP -- work during much of my stay. I never had a problem with the wifi. One of my favorite moments-- Easter was coming. One of the cleaning staff asked if I wanted any hot cross buns. I wisely said yes. She brought me a pan of the most enormous and most delicious hot cross buns ever -- anywhere! Why brother and I gave half the tray away to neighbors as we knew we couldn't eat them all. If you love the Bahamas or love doing something your more boring friends might not be willing to try this is the place to stay for a long time. I won't tell you how much I paid but it cost me less than living in Washington DC! I live in Australia now so I don't get to the Bahamas as often as I did before moving, but I'll be back in 2025!

We use the Royal Palm regularly now for our team coming over and working on the island, very clean, nice quiet area and very cost effective, too many over priced places in H.I. this is best value for money. Minette at reception is great, very effecient

The accommodation is large and clean. The location is very good, close to restaurants, supermarket and 15 minutes walk to the beach. Overall the stay is recommendable. To put a but, perhaps it is a little noisy.

Staff was very friendly, flexible and helpful. Room was comfortable and cleaned very well every day. Location is an easy walk from Government dock (where the ferry arrives), and in the middle of town near everything including the beach. I recommend Royal Palm Hotel 100%.

Great staff. In the middle of town so be ready for early morning golf cart noise but all good, that's everywhere. Same noise in Valentine's. Save your money, you don't want to spend any time in your room on this island.
