The Bath Hotel and Nevis Hot Springs stand as icons of both historical luxury and complex heritage. Constructed in 1778 by John Huggins, a prominent St. Kitts merchant, the Bath Hotel is celebrated as the first hotel in the Caribbean. It was originally built using the labor of enslaved people, a sobering aspect of its construction that reflects the troubling history of the era. Recently, this landmark underwent significant renovations to preserve its structural and historical integrity while making it more accessible to visitors.
