British Colonial Hilton

Number One Bay Street Nassau, Bahamas 242-322-3301

The British Colonial Hilton is the oldest hotel in Nassau, having been built over a hundred years ago in 1901. It even has movie roles in two James Bond movies: Thunderball and Never Say Never Again!      Afternoon tea is served in the Palm Court Lounge.  A two story high ceiling room  with columns and faux palm trees accented the room.  I am not quite sure if the time of year had any influence on the atmosphere, but we were the only people present in the lounge at the time.      The afternoon tea is served from three to five o'clock in the afternoon. There is a wide array of teas, including unique island blends with rum that cannot be found in many other afternoon teas. Some examples include banana and pineapple.  The warm scones with the preserves,  the tea sandwiches and the pastries were serve on an individual Wedgewood  plates.  No reservation needs to be made as well.
