Lovely B & B very centrally located and only a few blocks from Front Street. My husband and I were embarking on a Viking cruise and needed a room for one night and this place is a gem! I requested a ground floor room as there is no elevator and was accommodated in a lovely, newly remodeled room with a side outdoor access which takes you thru a lovely little garden. Rachel greeted us with professionalism and was extremely courteous and on the spot for our requests. Upon check-in, she prearranged our departure taxi and took our order for breakfast the following morning which she promptly delivered. It was a very fresh breakfast of perfectly boiled eggs, juice, coffee, fruit, yogurt and pastries. There are other selections as well. There is ample outdoor seating areas for relaxing or dining. The room was very comfortable and has everything you need. Great WiFi, cold AC, fully stocked kitchen, beautiful marble bathroom with essential amenities, comfy beds and a sitting area. If you are arriving from another country, you are required to take a COVID test at the airport and quarantine at your hotel until you receive the results (ours arrived by email within 7 hours). As there is no restaurant at this B & B, there is sign in the room directing you to download the Sargasso Sea app which we did and ordered a delicious Italian meal and a bottle of wine from a well known restaurant and it arrived within 30 minutes. We dined outdoors in the lovely garden. Our stay was Perfect!!!

This was our first trip to Bermuda and we chose to stay at the beautiful Oxford House in Hamilton. We could not have been more delighted by our choice. The staff (Rachael, Tata and Francis ) were warm, welcoming and attentive from the start to the end of our stay. Our rooms were large, well maintained, clean, fresh and cool considering the Bermuda heat. The beds were very comfortable, made up with soft pillows, duvets and cool cotton sheets. Every morning we were greeted by a member of the staff as we sat down either inside the dining room or outside in the pretty English garden to a continental breakfast of yogurt, fruit, eggs, cereal, juices, breads and fresh coffee. We found the location of Oxford House to be ideal for touring on foot. Not only is the area quiet and beautiful it’s also a 5 minute walk to the waterfront where all the shops and restaurants are as well as the bus stop and ferry. Our favourite memory is coming back to The Oxford House, after a full day of touring around Bermuda and sitting down around 5:30 in the garden with a nice glass of wine accompanied by an assortment of cheese and crackers all complimentary. Oh, and if you stayed out in the garden long enough(at dusk) you were serenaded by the “tiny tree frogs”!!
We want to thank the staff Rachael, Tata and Francis for making our stay an enjoyable experience!! Looking forward to returning to Bermuda and staying at The Oxford House!!

We stayed at Oxford House for 3 nights, Jul 17-20, 2021.
Location, Location, L... you know the rest. Oxford House is ideally situated just 4 mins' walk from the waterfront of Front Street, and another 10 or so laterally along the waterfront into the center of the harborfront area, where lots of shops and restaurants are found, as well as the main cruise terminal for Hamilton.
The staff here- just flat out awesome. Exceptionally polite, and prompt to address any questions/arrange for taxis, etc., or assistance finding a convenience store- an interesting pizza/gas station/sushi (yep) combination facility is just 3 blocks away inland.
The rooms are great, and very comfortable. Vloggers note: There is a proper safe in these rooms, large enough for a 14" laptop, so you can go into town and feel at ease about your valuable laptop/gear, etc., being stored securely.
Back to the staff. Perfect, polite, and the main reason to return here for each successive stay when in Bermuda again.

First greeted by a grouchy old lady (owner), this place feels like your grandmothers old house. It is very small (only 2 floors with about 8 rooms in total).
Everything is outdated, the taps produce brown water, the breakfast is extremely limited options (dry croissants/1 danish), and the owner was rude from the minute we got there.
The maids were great though.

What a wonderful, beautiful and very cosy hotel, almost like staying with family. The English style especially adds to the charm of the whole house (similar to a villa). You wake up in the morning rested in a very comfortable bed and delighted with the good choice you made with this hotel. The rooms are freshly renovated, very tastefully decorated and everything works great, including the WIFI! The staff are extremely friendly and very helpful, you can't ask for more! I will be back, 100%, my next business trip to Bermuda is already lined up!

Nothing is inexpensive in Bermuda. But you get value for your dollar at the Oxford House. It's perfectly situated on the quiet western end of Hamilton, a short walk to shops, restaurants and the port. I had a room with two twin beds on the first floor. The room was spotless with all of the modern amenities. And I was a few feet from the kitchen where they prepared a delicious breakfast every morning (fresh coffee, fresh boiled eggs, custom-made parfait and more). They even called a taxi for me when it was time to go home. I'm looking forward to staying there again.

The room is amazing better than most 5 stars
Staff are excellent
Location is great so close to front avenue
Wasnt sure about guest houses but this was really
good, very expensive and the breakfast needs to be
a better selections.
For being so expensive should be more than just
boiled eggs and quiche. (meaty no veg)
Expensive approx $1348 (ÂŁ1109) for 3 nights
Breakfast was not good. Poor selection, frozen
croissants.
They charged $150 extra for my 12 year old son.
Expensive considering the breakfast wasn’t great

We very much enjoyed our stay at Oxford House. Our room was quiet and beautifully decorated. Oxford House is conveniently located in downtown Hamilton within blocks of fantastic restaurants as well as ferry and bus transport to other parts of the island. I would recommend Oxford House as a peaceful home base for tourists and business travelers alike.

Nothing but good words to say about the Oxford House! The service, cleanliness, location, everything was excellent.
The staff especially are so friendly and accommodating! Whatever requests and reservations we asked for were addressed in a very timely manner. The rooms are as expected and the wifi, AC all worked great. The bathrooms especially was very sizable and clean like the rest of the property. A quick <10 minute walk from the bus station in addition to many restaurants and grocery stores.
It isn’t necessarily the best place in terms of staying on the property during the day (anyone coming to Bermuda should look to explore the whole island anyways!) but it was perfect for us. A big thanks again to the Oxford House and the staff for making our trip all the more comfortable and enjoyable.

March 2022 - My first visit to Bermuda will not be my last. In a large part because of The Oxford House and their wonderful staff. Old world charm greets you at the door with a large foyer and a spiral staircase that leads to a wonderful cozy sitting area with an outside balcony. We used every inch of the house. Breakfast provided every morning in the little dinning room. If there were no tables available, then you moved outside to the garden to enjoy your breakfast. At night, we enjoyed a glass of wine upstairs on the outside balcony. Walking distance to the bus depot and shopping. Walking distance to a large choice of restaurants. Our rooms were beautiful and provided us with everything we needed. The staff were always there to help....even if it was just for a corkscrew to open a bottle or to provide some choices of restaurants. Wonderful place, wonderful staff, wonderful island!!
