7 Hotels in Barbados With Historical Roots
Barbados has a long, rich, rarely tumultuous history reaching back to the first British settlement in 1627. As an important exporter of sugar and its byproduct, rum, much of the island’s rich history was in support (or defense) of that industry: forts, warehouses, plantation houses, and inns. These are the most historic hotels in Barbados.
The Atlantis Hotel
Why it made the list
The Atlantis first opened in the 1800s—when a new railway line was built to transport folks (and goods) across the island to the picturesque east coast—and has catered to travelers ever since. The most recent owners completely refurbished the property, but the view (and perhaps the Bajan buffet) remains the same as the earliest guests enjoyed more than a century ago.
