- “The king-sized bed is very comfortable and left us feeling very relaxed and rejuvenated in the morning.” 8
- “I called the Pompano Beach resort about day passes a few weeks ago. They said they open up a few passes 4-5 days in advance. It's super cheap, I think like $40 per person.” 3
- “I didn't notice or find any noticeable flaws at this resort. It was immaculately maintained at both the main hotel and the beach club, and I find a lot of value in a hotel or resort that invests in both its upkeep and maintenance and still finds ways to improve.” 12
- “The rates are high when compared with beachfront resorts geared toward leisure travelers, however; it would appear that business travelers have crowned the Princess their home base, and the hotel has raised its rates accordingly.” 28
- “The restaurants are clearly geared toward a corporate clientele: The Heritage Bar just off the lobby looks like the kind of place you'd stop in for a cocktail after work, and Harley's serves unexceptional, yet expensive cuisine -- perfect for an expensed meal on the go.” 28
- “The proximity to Hamilton was another perk. Anyone who visits Bermuda will tell you that the island is quite expensive. Having the luxury of walking to restaurants, events, marinas and boutiques was a great option.” 25
- “The Hamilton Princess is mainly a high end corporate hotel for insurance folks doing business on the island-- its very expensive for what you end up with.” 3

- “We stayed in a double room in the newly renovated Bermudian Wing at the Hamilton Princess and it was such a nice experience! We loved the new and modern touches and really enjoyed the Le Labo products in the bathroom.” 29
- “Given that the hotel is fairly historic, I loved the modern feel of the room as well as the large balcony and beautiful water view.” 2
- “At 690-square-feet, our Fairmont Gold signature one-bedroom suite was supremely spacious for a family of three, and included two bathrooms (one with a standalone tub), a bright living area, and two balconies overlooking the water.” 21
- “The décor, a nod to the Art Deco days gone by, feels luxe and modern at the same time, and the night we're there, the bar, with its ceiling-height, bottle-lined glass and brass shelves, glows, reflecting the standing-room-only clientele of locals and guests having a nightcap.” 19
- “The king size bed, spa-like bathroom, walk-in closet and flat screen TV felt like a home away from home.” 23

- “The bellman helped us with our luggage to the room and we were all wowed by the suite when we opened the door. It had one of the best views of the hotel overlooking the harbor with two balconies. I truly enjoyed just looking out there over the duration of our stay.” 12

- “Overall, I really liked the newly renovated Luxury Room and found it to be quite comfortable.” 17

- “My favorite part of the room was the balcony which offered stunning views of the harbour.” 20
- “So, we're in like the new I think it's called like the Bermudan wing or something. But, it's really nice here. So, if you come to the Hamilton Princess, try and get a room in the new Bermuda Wing because it's really nice.” On camera223:46

- “The final morning we went and had a nice breakfast again at the lovely buffet.” 12
- “The two restaurants -- Harley's with a poolside bar and grill as well as an indoor dining room, and Heritage Court, by the lobby -- lack character and cost too much for what you get.” 28
- “Another top choice is the two-year-old Intrepid Steak, Seafood & Raw Bar, which replaced a Marcus Samuelsson restaurant. Designed by Botelho Wood Architects, the concept leans heavily on elevated salads and proteins, including fresh oysters, sashimi, lobster tail, and an excellent striploin flight.” 21
- “The dining game here is first-rate. With three gourmet restaurants, you don't have to go very far for an unforgettable meal.” 5
- “We decided to unpack, Jillian got ready and then we decided to grab dinner in the hotel's Crown and Anchor Restaurant.

- “On my last morning, I had breakfast in the Gold Lounge, which was absolutely delightful. The buffet included a variety of items, including eggs, meat, fresh fruit, and parfaits. The dining experience was intimate, and the food was very delicious.” 15
- “Second, the food was unbelievably good and since I am a foodie, you can trust me , when I say it was so good!” 20

- “The cuisine at the Hamilton Princess is out of this world! I had the absolute pleasure of experiencing several meals during my stay.” 15

- “Luckily the hotel's proximity to downtown and some of the area's best restaurants means you won't be relegated to mediocre dining.” 28
- “The hotel was incredibly receptive to our vegan dietary requests, and we were very happy with the meals that were prepared for us.” 8

- “The gems here include a 60-berth luxury marina, three restaurants (including the standout and James Bond hideaway-inspired Intrepid Bermuda, one of the best steakhouses on the island, and local-loved 16o9 for lively Mexican fare); and a sleek harborfront infinity pool with private cabanas.” 14

- “The Hamilton princess has great restaurants depending on your budget. I recommend intrepid. The newest and best restaurant on the island currently. That's just my opinion.” 18
- “With a restaurant, bar and plenty of activities on the water you will not get bored and will have everything you need! You can also book a BBQ dinner at the Beach Club and dine right by the water. It was a wonderful experience with tasty food, amazing views and life music.” 20
- “So, we are walking from our hotel, Princess Hamilton, to like the town of Hamilton, which we saw while driving here and like also on a jin yesterday. It looks like it's maybe like a 10-minute walk. Yeah, like that. A really easy walk from the hotel to the main center of town” On camera2212:20

- “The Deluxe rooms feature a contemporary design that feels refreshing and are located close to the infinity pool!” 15
- “What a great suite,very spacious and you can't beat the location.” 8
- “Location Hamilton Harbour. A convenient 5 minute walk from downtown shops & restaurants.” 10
- “Princess is great because you can walk to town, take water ferry to other parts of island or go to their private beach club.” 27
- “Also a drawback: Not all the rooms have balconies -- a major letdown on an island, whether at a beachfront property or not.” 28
- “I chose the Hamilton Princess for its location as you get the best of both worlds. The hotel is by the centre of the capital, Hamilton but you also get access to the beach club which is 20 minutes away.” 2
- “We were delighted with the staff members from the moment that we arrived as they made us feel right at home. Each day, we were greeted with a smile and plenty of friendly conversations. Everyone went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and fulfilling.” 8
- “Service for tea and coffee was much slower than at the Gold Lounge, even though I was there early.” 2
- “Some historic hotels can be disappointing, but the staff were so friendly here.” 2
- “From top notch service to spacious rooms and public areas, it tops my list of where to stay in Bermuda.” 8
- “For instance, everyone was so nice to the kids and even they noticed it. Our servers would talk to them about their day and actually listen and be interested, and when one of them saw my son's plush Mickey that he brings everywhere, she decided to go and print out a few coloring pages of Mickey, Minnie and Moana for both of my kids.” 12
- “But here at the Princess, the service is next level: White-jacketed bellman welcome you in and out, the front desk folks are cheerful and accommodating, and the concierge can get just about anything done.” 14
- “ok advantage of the shuttle service. It was so convenient!” 4
- “The Gold Floor team-many of whom have worked there for years-goes above and beyond to learn your preferences; cappuccinos and croissants were brought to us the minute we sat down, every morning, without fail.” 21
- “The service at the Intrepid restaurant was excellent, with the manager going around speaking to everyone and my waiter, who was also great.” 2

- “The front desk agent was very friendly and professional and welcomed me by name and thanked me for staying at the Hamilton Princess.” 12

- “I think what blew me away most during my stay was the level of service provided by the hotel staff. They were willing to accommodate any ask, and made their strongest effort to ensure we were enjoying our stay.” 4
- “You will easily be able to store all of your belongings and keep everything organized. We always returned to an immaculate room, plus the hotel staff offers turn down service in the evening.” 8
- “I wanted to mention that the hotel offers free shuttle service to the nearby town as well as their beach club (about 20-25 minutes away).” 4
- “The hotel will boast the best view on the island for fans of the world famous event. You might prefer island accommodations in closer proximity to the beach, but if superior service and great dining options are important- take the gamble.” 10
- “I stayed at St. Regis last year and service is non existent.” 27
- “Let me tell you that the service at the Fairmont Lounge is incredible! The staff is unbelievably friendly and knows how to make you feel and your stay special.” 20
- “Friendly, down-to-earth people work here, not letting the fact that they are within the walls of a grand dame rich with history give them lofty airs.” 19
- “From the front door to the Fairmont Gold Lounge you're sure to make some friends who will remember your name, crack jokes, and check in on you daily-a warmth that can be felt across the island, but especially here at the Princess.” 14
- “The hotel had managed to keep its heritage with its Bermuda-shorts-dressed staff and historic lobby. But the rooms were modern and comfortable with all the facilities you could want.” 2
- “The manager, Natasha, remembering our ordeal from the day before did her best to get the food out to us. As she came running out of the kitchen with food in tow, she said she was about to run out to the driver to tell them they couldn't leave without us. Again, just wonderful, wonderful service.” 12
- “In the lobby, having the wall of playable art that lit up was a huge plus for my kids. Also the entire staff trying to help us get on the jitney or ensure we have everything we needed was wonderful.” 12
- “To the left is Crown & Anchor, the restaurant, and to the right is the reception. We were quickly checked in by a friendly associate, and then we were off to our room!” 17
- “The hotel itself was absolutely stunning, the service was second to none, and the food was unreal (y'all know I'm a huge foodie, so that is super important to me!).” 4
- “We actually tried to find a place to eat in Hamilton, but since it was late and the kids were tired of going all day we just decided to eat at the Crown and Anchor restaurant again in the hotel. And yet again, the entire staff was lovely, remembered us by name, asked us about our day and the race, etc.” 12
- “I feel like I rarely go out of my way to comment on the staff but this group deserve a commendation. Being greeted as 'Princess' every time we walked through the front door was just the icing on the cake to an already amazing experience. Whether it was the bar tenders, front desk or cleaning staff, everyone was just the sweetest.” 25

- “The private beach club was amazing and the staff were even better.” 18

- “The service was a little bit hit-and-miss at the adult pool and relied on you spotting a server and grabbing their attention.” 2
- “I stayed at St. Regis last year and service is non existent. You are also isolated.” 27
- “For some reason, there is a gap in buses mid-afternoon, which means the next service is very crowded, so get to the bus early.” 2
