The Fairmont Hamilton Princess
Overview
Among the hibiscus and oleander, on the shores of a picturesque natural harbor, The Fairmont Hamilton Princess is an elegant tribute to the old world splendor that is Bermuda. Take a dip in your choice of fresh or saltwater pool, catch the complimentary ferry over to our private Fairmont Beach Club at the Fairmont Southampton. Frolic with the dolphins at dockyard, or take a carriage ride into town.
Bermuda had gained International recognition in 1883 when Princess Louise, the fourth daughter of Queen Victoria, visited for a winter retreat and called it ''a place of eternal spring.'' The Fairmont Hamilton Princess Hotel in Bermuda is a symbol of all that Bermudians hold dear - old fashioned courtesy, timeless quality and genuine hospitality. Fondly referred to by Bermudians as ''The Pink Palace,'' The Fairmont Hamilton Princess opened its doors on January 1, 1885.
Imagine waking up to a view of clear blue skies and aquamarine waters dotted with colorful sailboats and sleek yachts. That is what's waiting for you at The Fairmont Hamilton Princess. Accommodations are decorated with subtle colors and elegant furnishings that reflect the Victorian heritage of the hotel. We have 410 guest rooms and suites, available in a wide choice of styles and sizes to suit the needs of every guest. Many of our rooms have a private balcony overlooking the harbor, while most other rooms offer views of the city or lush fragrant gardens. Please see the Guest Room and Suite descriptions at left for complete details of our luxurious accommodations.
