The Oxford House

The Oxford House is an old Bermuda town house is located on the edge of Hamilton and is within walking distance of the offices of many major international companies, making it popular with business visitors as well as tourists.

Each of the 12 rooms, named individually after Bermuda’s parishes has air conditioning, cable TV, telephone, private bathroom and coffee/tea maker. All are tastefully decorated in the style of an English country house with antique furniture and floral drapes.

A curved staircase leads to the upstairs landing where there’s a small library filled with books which visitors are welcome to borrow. If you wish you can sit on the balcony which overlooks the small garden at the front of the house.

Continental breakfast is provided and includes muffins, fruit and scones. A pot of boiling water sits on the breakfast table so you can cook eggs according to your personal preference. The Oxford House doesn’t serve dinner, which is unsurprising given the range of excellent restaurants nearby. The Harbourfront, Little Venice, L’Oriental, Ristorante Primavera, The Lobster Pot, Portofino Restaurant, the Robin Hood pub and many more are all within walking distance. Oleander Cycles has a branch nearby for those visitors wishing to hire a scooter.

The Oxford House is in Pembroke Parish. Watch videos of nearby attractions in the player below:

Just returned from Bermuda. This was my second visit to the Oxford House and was as enjoyable as the first 5 years ago, except this time my room had undergone extensive refurbishments, and is a family run business to give it that welcoming feeling. It is always full so need to book early. It is ideal for the business traveler as right on the edge of town, but also good for anyone on vacation as all buses start in Hamilton and return to the same point as well as a regular ferry all within 100 meters of the guest house. Breakfast is included with the price of the room which offers various cereals fruit pastries and cakes as well as bread for toast and also facilities for boiling your eggs. It does not offer lunch or dinner, but this is easily taken care of by the Robin Hood pub 50 yards away to the left as you leave or turn right and make your way to the waterfront for a choice of venues. Please note a lot of the attractions in Bermuda are shut during the close season. There is a chemist opposite as well as a scooter rental place about 4 doors away, a must as you are not allowed to hire a car. My rating for this is a good 3 star. Please also note with the new refurbishments they also have broadband in your room or wireless in the common areas and at a reasonable 10.00 US Dollars per 24 hour period.
