I made the mistake of renting a Standard room in the main building. Because of the open-air layout of the building, this means mosquitoes can and did get into my room. I found I had difficulty falling asleep due to mosquitoes buzzing around my head. Every morning when I woke up I found I had a few new mosquito bites... More

My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights in early March. The hotel is perfectly situated right in Nelson’s Dockyard, which was fantastic. We had just spent the past 2 weeks in rural areas of Dominica and Antigua, so the more “developed” feeling of this area was a fun way to end our trip. There are several excellent bars... More

We stayed at the admirals inn for two weeks (in the annex) and we loved the place, the friendly staff, the very clean room, value for money but most of all the setting. It is like a quaint english cottage/ house in a tropical setting! We don't have a clue what the last two reviews with a very low rating... More

There is nothing good about this restaurant except the view. The service was horrible - the waitress was nearing the border of being rude - is there was anyway that we could have removed the "service charge" from our bill we would have done so. The food I won't even comment about - will be interesting to see who takes... More

We decided to pay a little extra and have one night at a nicer hotel in Antigua before my fiance started back at work on a yacht again. I regret ever having spent the money which is very sad, I walked into the hotel and it does have a nice setting but we were told that there were only superior... More

Our stay at the Admiral's Inn was a great way to end our Antigua/ Barbuda vacation. We stayed for one night in superior room number #1 which looked right out upon Nelson's Harbor and the dockyard. The room was comfortable and we could not have asked for a better location. The staff also provided great service, especially when it came... More

My husband and I stayed here one night out of our 5 days in Antigua in mid January. We wanted to explore southern part of the island on day 1 of our trip for which we chose to stay here. I read some negative comments about the inn on Tripadvisor so was doubtful about how the experience is going to... More

This was the third time I had stayed at the Admiral's Inn after a sailing trip but the first since the refurbishment and. I think, new management. I had booked a Superior Room without realising this was not in the main building....this turned out to be a mistake. Within minutes of entering the room I had a number of mosquito... More

We stayed here for one night after 2 weeks in the British Virgin Island. We were looking for a small charming residence, rather that staying in an airport hotel - we will choose the airport next time. After arranging all the details with the hotel we thought that all should go smoothly - how wrong we were. There was no... More

Anyone with the slightest penchant for romance, nostalgia, the atmosphere of times past will love the Admirals Inn. I last was here in 1987 and little has changed. A new sweet efficient and welcoming recoptionist - Sasha. Some improvements to bathroom. Otherwise same gorgeous inn I have always loved. Grand Hyatt it is not. Bedrooms good size but vaguely reminiscent... More
