The UpStairs Restaurant and the employees services are #1. My 5 time stay in Bell Channel

Extremely friendly staff.

My stay at Bell Channel was enjoyable, the hotel staff and restaurant staff are friendly and helpful, especially Roberta in housekeeping. The property is well maintained and rooms clean. The only negative is there is no elevator and I was on the 3rd floor and have injured knees which were very swollen and sore by day 3 and for the rest of my 7day stay.

The hotel was nice. However the area is depressed

Bell Channel Inn is close enough to the Port Lucaya Marketplace to walk there and close enough to the Lucaya Shopping Center to get groceries at Solomon’s with a taxi ride back (public bus service was unreliable). There’s a small pool on the property and lots of beach chairs. The restaurant on the third floor is open from 7:30 in the morning until 11 at night. The food was good and reasonably priced. The front desk staff was always helpful. The room was spacious with a comfortable bed, a small refrigerator and microwave (but no utensils), and a shower. The air conditioner and ceiling fan kept the room cool. There was a balcony with 2 chairs. The flat screen TV had a variety of American channels, some Bahamaian channels and music channels. The wifi coverage was spotty. It was good in the lobby and the restaurant but less reliable in my room at the end of the building. I found that the signal improved if I placed my mobile device close to the TV signal box but it went in and out constantly. E-mail and web surfing were OK but forget about streaming videos. I’m glad I stayed there.

Walking distance to marina and great onsite restaurant.

Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Booked a short trip, clean room and very comfortable. Check-In and check-out was very quick. Restaurant upstairs was very good.

The staff is very friendly and helpful, the restaurant have very good drinks and food. I understand they are still repairing from Dorian. Please keep updating. I Wish they had some type of entertainment or activity poolside.

Friendly staff. Cleanliness. Cleaning fee $22/night too high

The people were very friendly and helpful.

Very clean. We just asked for fresh towels after the first night and they cleaned entire room and changed bed covers! Great view of harbor. Restaurant on site with very good food, especially breakfast. You get a free Bahamian drink with your stay! I would definately go back.

People were super friendly and helpful. Restaurant upstairs was nice and food was very good reasonably priced.

Nice place. Nice staff. Fixtures like shower and toilet not working well and everything a little thread-bare. Reasonable price. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to someone if they asked.

Location was good. Property clean and service was good.

I guess you get what you pay for? Honestly just needed a place to rest my head for a few days while hanging out with family who live on the island. The room was a bit dirty behind the night stand. Balcony was dirty as well. Sheets and comforter on one of the beds had stains on it. Restaurant upstairs closes at 10 due to a curfew set in place, verbiage on site and online still show it’s open until 11 which can be deceiving to people staying there and don’t know about the curfew. The restaurant food for breakfast and staff were great though! Location is great, close to Port Lucaya. This won’t be my first location of choice in the future sadly.

Loved the balcony view, room and bed was very comfortable. Parking was a challenge.

Amazing view. Very friendly staff. Restaurant has excellent menu. Food was delicious.

The stay was okay staff is friendly one problem if your towel is changed you’re not able to receive a new set right away because they are being washed. The room is non smoking but it sure smell smoky when we got in had to get spray from front desk. The housekeepers were very nice and helpful. A peasant wanted to be confrontational with me for looking at my friends coming to pick me up and housekeeper had to speak with her about her behavior to a guest.

We came back as we stayed here last year. Jeanie is very welcoming and helpful; ordering us taxis for shopping & the airport. They provide a coupon for a free drink in the bar for all 3 of us and the restaurant serves great food quickly. The room C-1 was lacking as there was a very small weak stream of water in the sink; however the shower was fine. And we only had 2 sets of towels when there are 3 of us. No beach but nice view of harbor & Lucayan Marketplace.

Limited menu, however food was good and staff was pleasant.

Very basic, bed was made every day. Shower and bath cleaned. Patio door had 10mm gap in it so all sounds outside very clear. When it was windy there was a loud howling over and above the AC. Morning staff friendly at breakfast. Evening staff not very welcoming, felt very uncomfortable and took my evening meals in my room after the second night there.

Truly enjoyed my stay at Bell Channel Inn. The whole crew at the hotel are friendly and helpful. My room was clean, comfortable and had the most beatiful view over the channel. Felt great being able to leave the door to the balcony open and listening to the water falling asleep. Hotel has a great restaurant/bar. 15 minutes walk to nice beach or Lucayan market. Aside from great beaches I strongly recommend trying the local scuba diving service, which was 120$ and ended up in a 45min dive at a reef. Cheaper but just as stunning was snorkeling at Paradise Cove. Stumbling into a 300kg giant turtle with eyes the size of a desert plates, was an unforgettable experience. Very friendly locals always greeting you or asking if you want a ride if walking.

EVERY ONE HERE WAS FRIENDLY AND VERY HELPFUL THE PLACE WAS CLEAN

The staff at Bell Channel Inn were amazing. Very kind and helpful. The restaurant/bar upstairs was great as well. The location and the view from all rooms was good. It’s a little dated, but i didn’t pay for a 5 start hotel. Great place for the $$$.

The location was good. It is walking distance to a beach and Port Lucaya Marketplace. A slightly longer walk to Taino beach if you want to go there (local fish fry and party every Wednesday at 6 pm). The facilities were decent and good value for the price. The shower head was a little short (I'm 6'1"), angled away from where one would normally stand while showering, and couldn't be readjusted. The light switches were tricky to use. Sometimes they would get stuck, sometimes they were easy to use. The convenience of having a restaurant right upstairs was a nice option. Though the service was inconsistent, the food was pretty good as long as you're not expecting fine dining. The front desk staff at the inn were fabulous. Some of the other hotel staff were a little rigid and condescending but had good intentions. There were some great opportunities through the hotel for tours and events around the island. Would stay again if there weren't any affordable options closer to the beach.

Awsome diving, great place to stay. If you need anything see....Genie
