“It was Good, I LIKE IT”

City View Hotel & Restaurant

7/65 found this review helpful

Not too exciting in decor, but it catered for a business visitor to the simple Antiguan capital. Their breakfast was GREAT, was that really continental? The rooms were spacious, GOOD HEAVENS you can play some soft ball cricket in my room, it was big, hence the TV was a good distance away. The staff were all great and as a West Indian, I can relate to the common thread of "my people". The Internet was reasonably fast & Free (I saved there) since I have to be online quite alot.

To cut a long story short, the HOTEL is cool, and please ask for BARRY the reliable TAXI driver

Please please listen to me and DO NOT stay at this property unless your life depends upon it!
I was forced to stay in this dump because of an error in reservations at another hotel in Antigua.
I was insulted by the front reception staff and told that the only room that they had in my "price range" ($99 USD without breakfast and $129 USD with breakfast!) was one without airconditioning!
To add insult to injury, I was also asked to leave $50 USD CASH in order that I could use the TV remote control during my stay! What planet had I landed on!!?? I did get this cash back the next day.
There is NO phone in this hotel and cell phones don't seem to work on the island.
I was worried all night that I would get bitten by some manner of bugs or have things crawling on me when I awoke. The room was clean-ish but in old, rough condition.
It is in a very impoverished and busy (vehicle traffic) part of the city with no view to speak of and seemingly no ammenities. $5.00 USD for a couple of scrambled eggs made me happy that I brought "power bars" from home!
I was not offered any hospitality and was frightened to be there and relieved to leave!
Heed my warnings oh friendly travellers and DON'T stay here!!!!
