Blue Horizon Hotel

Good quiet location

Place was clean and tidy A bit noisy in the nights at my room something kept banging idk if it was the generator or where they did the washing, but it was a convenient hotel

Location is great. Staff was welcoming. The room was clean but the AC kept us up all night. The flow in the shower wasn't the best but it is workable. One night stay was enough for us. The price we paid wasjt worth the stay

Overall, the property is well-maintained. The staff are friendly and helpful. It would have been courteous to have the AC already, especially given the fact I had to walk up 55 flights of stairs. Things to be aware of: No elevators. I was placed on the 4th floor and had to carry my belongings up. Thank goodness I'm young with no barriers to exercising. Although the beach is across the street, it has an excessive amount of seaweed right on the beach and waterfront. Some people managed to still go in the water. Plenty of buses and taxis are right in front of the hotel if you are an adventurous person and don't mind heading out on your own. The continental breakfast is very plain with no protein (hard-boiled eggs). They serve breakfast there for a pretty expensive price. You're better off walking a short distance to Quayside Center. If you don't want fast food like Chefette, KFC, etc, check out Afrobeats by Shaz restaurant for some delicious food with a great variety. If you take a left outside the main entrance of hotel, it's about a 13-16 minute walk, depending on how fast you walk.

more breakfast options

Clean. Friendly staff. Great service.

Loved the quietness property, hated the food.

Was good though the kitchen response time etc could take some servuce improvements

walking 🚶‍♀️ distance to everywhere i wanted to go.not too far from the airport, beach across the street eateries very close

I liked the fact that the place was clean and tidy and there was a daily house keeping service. I also liked that it was right next to the beach. In terms of improvement, there could have been some more variety offered in the breakfast, particularly things like eggs, sausages and cheese

The rooms are well appointed and I would recommend as a good place to stay and the staff were eventually able to accommodate our need for a room on a lower floor although I had requested this several weeks prior to our arrival but did not receive a response. Feedback regarding food and staff - The food availability in the restaurant was not great and the breakfast options were not regularly refreshed during the breakfast session. Did not appreciate the staff chatting loudly outside our room when we were resting in the room. The property is very close to Rockley beach and I would recommend the nearby food court and restaurants rather than the hotel restaurant, (which was very expensive and only a few menu items available).

We loved our stay here! It was comfortable, clean, the staff was friendly and helpful. The location was central to great dining and beaches!

First night hot water did not work. Second day in the afternoon after maintenance was a no show my husband sorted the hot water issue. Shower did not work appears a pressure issue and for entire stay we had to use hand held part. Room was just outside housekeeping lock Up and not the quiet room I asked for. Not for noise sensitive guests sorry.

Happy with room as requested a quiet room upon booking. However no real view from balcony and noisy service area behind room. Hotel was good for our short 2 night stay. Staff for breakfast very slow at responding to requests for items needed. Breakfast choice okay

Have to renew And the breakfast included It’s a bite fake Cause if you want an omelet You have to pay for it 16 US$

The property was very comfortable. The staff were friendly and very efficient. I am 65 and was on the 3rd floor. There is no lift. A little inconvenient but there were staff to help me with my luggage initially and when i was leaving. It was not a major problem but if you have mobility issues I would suggest letting them know beforehand.

The standard room doesnt look anything like the pictures. The cleaning staff was very rude to my wife after she requested a fresh towel. There was a huge cockroach in my room. I asked for a manager and was told there wasnt one available. The front desk staff ignored my concerns.

I love the location and the amenities and will definitely be back.

The property was run down and the rooms were ancient. The room smelled stuffy. Worse than a motel 6 or red roof. Way overpriced for its presentation online versus in person. The entire place needs to be remodeled. Barbados is a beautiful country, this hotel experience could put a damper on one’s experience if you stay here.

Staff like Ryan are amazing ...premises are clean.

Terrible hotel with terrible staff

The breakfast was terrible

Great location- friendly staff, poor restaurant

Great customer service

Excellent location, right across from the beach. Easy access to public transportation. Front desk staff helpful. The only negative is the continental breakfast. It was pathetic. There is an extra cost for eggs. At minimum, offer hard boil eggs.

Blue Horizon is conveniently located close to the many beautiful beaches, groceries & airport. It's peaceful & quiet environment suited my wife & I, who recently retired. Very friendly & helpful hotel staff with a rigid & efficient room cleaning cycle. I will certainly recommend Blue Horizon hotel to my family & friends.

I love the beach right across the street only thing i guess you pay for . The property was well kept . No elevator was my downfall the people was not too friendly only a few . the continental breakfast was a big joke no eggs only bread and butter along with some small pieces of fruits

It was fairly ok.

Trip was good overall …. It was a short two night stay

Convenient location and friendly staff.

The staff are great

Good visit.

Location

Staff were amazing, very welcoming and helpful. Property was very well taken care of and rooms were ver clean! We were staying during hurricane Beryl, staff kept checking on us and provided drinking water….property is located in a very convenient area, walking distance to food, shopping and is right across the road from Rockley beach. A staff & property, I would definitely recommend

I would wanted a safe in the room.

The facility location is ideal but the rooms need to be updated.

Na

Great hotel near the ocean.

Always a pleasure here… been coming to stay here for more than 20 years. With an attentive staff, constant upgrades and superb maintenance —along with a great location— makes it a win each time. You don’t mess with success; you build on it.

Service at Blue Horizon is excellent. Renovated rooms. Food still needs improvement

If you just need a room with a bed to lay your head on at the end of the day. this place will do. Good A/C in our room. Shower, toilet, and a bed. It's about as basic as you can get. If you are expecting Hilton or Radison type accomodation-you are going to be quite let down. I would stay here again as I'm cheap... and this place filled the bill.

Very relaxing / no issues with check-in -check out

As a day stay before getting a flight in the evening it was excellent

Our room wasn’t ready until after check in. We looked out on to a not great view. Continental breakfast was ok and a nice pool area to sit around.

We were thoroughly impressed with this hotel. There is a really relaxed atmosphere around the pool, and the staff are fabulous; helpful and friendly. The beach across the road is big, not too busy and with beautiful clear water and white sand. The hotel really is excellent value.

The staff is Verry good

Poor service.

Good spot for Business or Vacation as it’s convenient and opposite the Beach too.

older property, no lifts we were on 3d floor. beds comfortable but only doubles.

Small from outside. Inside with pool, courtyard and restaurant great! Across the street from Accra/ Rockley Beach

Convenient and clean.

Great stay and we hope to go back .

Very convenient location, clean and tidy, friendly and helpful staff.

Great staff

Great location just wish there was more selection for continental breakfast available

Friendly and in a good location. Room cleaned every day and decent value. Breakfast was fairly basic.

The location was convenient to the UN, EU and other business hotels. There are dining options and it is easily accessible.

The area is rather convenient , however these rooms are outdated and needs renovation. The dresser was old , the bathroom needs a lift. The staff however very helpful.

I was not appropriative of the fact that my bedroom needed the key in the lock so it can stay locked. There was no safe in my room. I was left without towels at one time. Some of the staff were not pleasant and friendly

Near the beach and shops

Suited my needs perfectly - just 2 nights in comfortable accommodation to which I could retreat & relax & recover after a minor surgical procedure. Everyone was polite & helpful. Adequate breakfast despite only strawberry jam on offer My only complaint ( which I forgot to report) was that my bedside lamp didn’t work which was slightly annoying.

Great location for the beach and great transport for where ever you need to go.

Pleasant staff , peaceful area .

I thought the Hotel was very nice. The rooms were clean and comfortable. We only stayed one night. We got there at almost midnight and it is across from a beach where young people gathered. Their music was very, very loud but it stopped a few minutes after 12. Otherwise it would have been impossible to sleep. We had requested that one of our rooms have 2 double beds and got a room with only one bed. Could have been a problem if it hadn't been that they were sisters. It does state that they can't guarantee room requests but I think they need to add this feature. The breakfast was nice and located in a nice area.

I like the sea view, the rooms were cleaned and tidied every day. The staff were friendly and was very helpful. I did not like the stairs as I was on the 4th floor, the hotel could do with a lift

Great location

Rooms we’re comfortable and clean but needs an update.

Friendly staff

The room was clean,the staff was friendly.

We loved it here. The people, the staff, everything was wonderful.

Food wasn't that great. In hated the shower. Front desk staff very nice and housekeepers. Restaurant most wait staff was pleasant. A few were rude.

The hotel is clean and quiet

We had one of the kitchenette suites.. I'm not sure if they also have smaller or bigger rooms. Our suite was great, had great appliances and cookware and utensils. It would be easy to stay there for a week. The property was across the street from the Caribbean and a nice sandy beach.

Great location, beautiful places to go around.

Much nicer than expected!

Excelente location.

Nice location Beach is across the street

The property was clean, however, my room was not what I saw on the internet. However, my stay was good. Staff was friendly and pleasant.

Really great location; steps from beach and cool beach vendors, close to grocery, pharmacy, bank and coffee/food spots. Near great beach bars and close to nightlife - St Lawrence Gap. Lots of taxis pass by this main stretch of road. Property itself great with accommodations, pool, staff very friendly. Place looks much better than photos on Expedia.

I liked that the property is close to the beach and food options

The complimentary continental breakfast was adequate, given precautions due to the Covid virus. Some of the front desk staff were very rude. In 2 weeks I was able to get only 2 beach towels to use at the pool. I was not the only one with this experience. They would just say we haven't got any. The pool area was very good, especially as we probably spent more time there than we would have pre-covid. It was well maintained daily. The grounds were also well maintained.

The maid did NOT clean our room on Saturday, January 22nd. My roommate had to ask for clean towels. I will Not stay there again. Front desk staff was nice, but I didn't appreciate being charged an additional $11.90 for something I don't even understand. I had already paid for the two days in full before arriving. Can someone please expkain where I understand the additional charge, Thank you. I do like that the hotel was across the street from the ocean.

Housekeeping services are excellent. not being advised that the hotel is housing covid patients for testing and quarantine.

It’s a nice property, very well maintained. The view we had from our balcony was wonderful. We were just quarantined there so we really didn’t get to use an amenities

I like that this property was very clean and close to the beach. The staff went above and beyond to help me navigate some paper work needed to get a driving permit. Front desk staff were very courteous and housekeeping staff were amazing. I'm thinking about returning for Christmas.

My stay was ok

Good value for excellent location. Opposite Rockley beach park. Next door to fast food franchise. Shopping and bars 5 mins walk.

would recommend anytime

Blue Horizon has been a quality mainstay for decades and for good reasons. Located in the heart of the bustling south shore, Blue Horizon is within easy reach of all points. The elegant and manicured property has been carefully designed and updated over the years. Each room feels open with vantage onto lovely Rockley beach yet quiet, discreet and private. The highly professional and attentive staff will take good care of you. Blue Horizon is a much loved hidden gem …in plain sight that I’ve returned to countless times.

It would've been nice for them to at least have a complimentary bottle of water or some tea bags satchel of sugar etc in the room, remember some of us was on quarantine there..

Clean property and professional staff

Location superb. Plus some good accomodating staff foremost is the staff in the kitchen and one bell boy. The maintenance rasta staff needs retraining for better customer service.

The rooms were large & adequately furnished but basic & not very luxurious in any way. Our room was at the front of the property & on a VERY noisy road!

The front desk staff were excellent, very pleasant and helpful. Overall the rooms were clean. Will stay again and have recommend this hotel to family/friends.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. They were prompt in responding to any requests.

I came in early to drop off my bag and came back around 1pm to check in. My room wasn’t ready which I can understand because check in starts at 3pm. Although I was told at front desk that the room was ready but the housekeeping supervisor needed to check it before allowing me to go in and she was out to lunch. I then waited until 4:30 pm in the lobby before they gave me key and even then they were finishing the room. Then the WiFi stopped working that night and it was still down when I checked out at 10:30 am.

Blue Horizon is in a great location. Pool is wonderful and most the staff are wonderful. The continental breakfast is pretty pathetic and repetitive everyday. Most of our stay was great, the last 4 nights was horrendous. A large group of teenagers who were staying at the hotel were beyond loud until 2am. Even with two calls to the front desk, nothing was done. Frustrating and has made me reconsider staying at the hotel again.

Old, outdated. Mold. I have an allergy and react as soon as I am near it.

Really nice staff, laid back feel to the place. Close to beach

Some of the reviews here left me a little leery about staying here, but all in all it was okay. My main issue was that out of the 5 day stay, I had no hot water for at least half of the time. Even in a beautiful 83 degree paradise, you still want the comfort of a hot shower. It’s the little things that make all the difference. Otherwise, it was worth it.
