Towne Hotel

Nassau


For the location it doesn't get much cheaper than this long-running hotel in downtown Nassau. Friendly management and a kitschy Junkanoo-themed bar make an otherwise ordinary 46-room motel-style place feel a bit cheerful and the lobby's resident macaw is something of a legend. Rooms are small (not as small as the pool) but clean enough; better rooms have shared balconies.
