Progress Being Made At Hamilton Princess Hotel
Some areas of the Fairmont Hamilton Princess are buzzing with activity, with work underway to renovate and upgrade the historic property.
Earlier this year the Green family — the Bermudian family that owns the hotel — announced details of major renovation plans designed to enhance the property, which are budgeted to cost some $70 million.
The renovation project is being conducted in phases to minimise disruption to hotel guests, and the first phase was scheduled to begin this winter after the destination’s peak season.
The upgrades are set to include an infinity pool, private cabanas, new hot tub, renovation of the 69 guestrooms/suites, new furniture, new Gazebo-style bar & grill, development of a new 66 berth marina, upgrades to the hotel’s mechanical & electrical infrastructure, and much more.
The pool area, which will be almost three times the size of the current pool, will have luxury loungers, shaded seating and hammocks. There will also be a new hot tub and enhancements to the poolside food and beverage offering.
A renovation of 69 guestrooms and suites in the Poinciana wing of the hotel is also part of Phase I. The floor to ceiling renovation will include new furniture, fixtures and equipment inside the rooms, as well as an extension of the dramatic balconies and terraces overlooking Hamilton Harbour.
One of the most significant elements of the renovation includes the development of a new state-of-the-art marina at the property. When complete, the marina will offer 66 berths and additional docking space for up to 30 vessels, ranging in size to accommodate pleasure craft, tournament fishing boats as well as mega yachts.
Wow! Didnt realize the work had already started in such a quantity. Looks like it will raise the standards and offer something a bit more than currently is offered.
