and $800 a night ….
So that means it will be off limits to locals.
I hope the trickle down effect will enhance the pay of low paid industry workers.
Where does it say off limits to locals? Just another asinine comment from pj.
A beautiful hotel with a stunning view. Great news.
An absolutely fantastic video! Congratulations to the Hamilton Princess…
Ah yes, a fine choice by the America’s Cup committee to choose the Hamilton Princess. I will be staying between my own private island and my yacht for these events. I cannot slum it at a hotel like everybody else. I do quite enjoy Samuelson when I am not dining at Harry’s.
Congradulations to The Hamiton Princess and Beach Club, Thank you for all you have done for Bermuda!
and rightfully so with the amount of money the Green Family has invested in Bermuda and the number of Bermudian employees the hotel deserves the event and should charge whatever they can for this event…good for them
no no no no Onion Juice,they bring dee price dawn so da the Gumant Workers can affor it.
We have one third of our workforce here in Bermuda on contract like 11,300 work permits.
I am still looking for these UN-EMPLOYED Bermudians everyone is talking about.
NOT talking about the complainers or the PLP/BIU talking points I am talking about the un-employed.
Great for the Hamilton Princess and great for Bermuda! Pity about the first two brain-dead comments though.
May they see the light.
People that can’t afford Samuelson and Harry’s can always go KFC and get a zinger special!
