The Fairmont Hamilton Princess overlooks the stunning blue waters of the Hamilton Harbour.
Conveniently located in the city of Hamilton, The Fairmont Hamilton Princess is an urban oasis featuring beautifully appointed guest rooms; a stunning infinity edge resort pool with uninterrupted views of Hamilton Harbour; and 1609 Bar and Restaurant, Bermuda’s only open-air dining experience situated in their new 60-berth marina.
The Fairmont Hamilton Princess offers a range of luxurious guest rooms and suites.
We have managed to negotiate a special rate of $299 plus tax inclusive of complimentary WI-Fi in each room. There will be an additional charge for breakfast. This is a good rate for a top quality Hotel in Bermuda.
The Hotel is holding a number of rooms for us at this special rate – until 6 weeks before the conference. Hence if you wish to ensure you get a room and this special rate you need to book early!
Members are responsible for booking their own hotel rooms directly with the hotel and to secure the negotiated conference rates you must quote “IAIR0815” (Please note the last four characters are all numbers i.e. the 0 is a zero and not an "O") . For delegates arriving before or staying after the conference the Fairmont Hotel will charge the conference room rate for their entire stay.
