The Staff members were very pleasant & polite. The room was clean and modern. Only critique the bed was too hard for my lucking. The restaurant workers, housekeeping & front desk staff were all professional and accommodating. Great location on the Gap in the middle of all the action and a short walk to 2 different beaches. Love, Love.

Great place to stay. The pictures don't really do it justice. We were in the 1 bed studio. Staff very friendly and in a great location. Only thing to fix is the coordination between the restaurant and front desk when they chase for card payment even though they have your card on file.

South Gap Hotel is exactly what we needed. Check in and out were efficient and all staff were generous and hospitable. Located on St Lawrence Gap meant we were close to restaurants and markets, and with easy access to beaches. The room was comfortable with all amenities and we had a most scenic view of the Caribbean Sea from our balcony. We were even treated to a bottle of red wine in celebration of our anniversary. Will definitely return.

A smart and friendly hotel with spacious, beautifully decorated rooms that have amazing sea views. Reception staff are very helpful! Their restaurant serves tasty food around the impressive pool deck (staff are great there too). Just 5 mins from the famous Dover Beach with a variety of quality bars and restaurants along the route.

I enjoyed my stay at south gap hotel! The staff for the most part were friendly, room was nice, grounds were pretty. I stayed on the ground floor things to note were I could hear the people in the unit above me which was extremely loud dragging of furniture all times of the day and into the evening. Our bathroom shower did have issues draining but that was fixed by a gentlemen in maintenance. I liked the fact check out time was 12pm, check in time is a bit late in the afternoon if you are planning for any activities. Overall I had a nice time there and definitely would like to be back and stay on a higher floor

This was my first time visiting Barbados, and this hotel exceeded my expectations! From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel welcome and well taken care of. Shakeeta and Sharieka were especially kind and patient they went above and beyond to help me book excursions and dinner reservations, which took a lot of the stress off and allowed me to truly enjoy my birthday. Exceptional staff like them are the reason people come back. Honestly, they deserve a raise! Jeremy (I believe that was his name) at the bar he had braids was also super friendly and added to the relaxed vibe. The pool area was the best part & gorgeous, with stunning views of the ocean. I also loved all the amenities in the room. Housekeeping did an amazing job. I'm very particular about cleanliness, and the room was spotless, smelled fresh, and the AC was perfectly cold. I gave 4 stars for condition because the only downside was the cable channels and Wi-Fi, which were a bit spotty & cut completely out during my stay. But overall, I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for an affordable, chic hotel experience in Barbados. I’ll definitely be back & tell my family and friends to stay here!

We had a wonderful stay at the South Gap Hotel. The room was modern, spacious, with a fully stocked kitchenette (microwave and full fridge, no stove), a big comfortable bed, great bathroom, and powerful air conditioner. The views from our room were beautiful! If they can accommodate, ask for a ground floor room, it's a walkout to the pool patio and that was great. The best part of our stay was the staff. They truly made us feel like family from the moment we arrived. I have to thank Nicholas, one of the bartender/restaurant staff, for giving us exceptional customer service and going out of his way to make sure we were always confortable and fed! He even recommended excursions that really made our trip memorable. The front desk staff was also lovey. The only issue I experienced was that the hotel was noticeably understaffed. The housekeeping staff took quite a while to get to our room, with staff missing our room entirely one of the days we requested cleaning. We could see the 1-2 housekeeping staff were doing their best so this did not make or break our experience.
Walkout to pool deck from our room. We also have a private patio with privacy curtain.
Views from the pool deck at night.
