Carlton House was originally known as the Rozelda Hotel that was based just off Rawson Square, Nassau. In the late 1950’s, the property underwent renovation and rebranding and was renamed as the Carlton House. The newly renovated hotel was promoted with:
…air conditioning through out; outstanding Bahamian cuisine; American-style steaks and chops; new Dining Room and “Iron Bar”…
The proximity of Carlton House to the House of Assembly along with the privacy available and the libations at hand would make it a natural meeting spot for parliamentarians. And indeed, beyond offering music and hospitality, the Carlton House would host the formation and ongoing consultation and activity of the United Bahamian Party.
