This is the place to be for shopping, restaurants and bars !!! For shopping please note that most shops close at 5PM, which I thought was a bit early, but we made the most of it !!

We went into town daily. We did have homeless street people begging on our way back to our hotel from dinner. Scary

Bring your Amex cards! Trimingham's is unfortunately long gone, but the better shops to visit are the Old English shop and a Bermuda exclusive Vineyard Vines.
While walking be sure to go up Queen Street and Visit Queen Elizabeth II Park. A nice oasis in the middle of a car noisy town.

Colorful harbor front street lined with upscale shops and a few restaurants/bars a number of which were closed. Not much else happening as street was under repair--being repaved.

Much here to shop, eat, drink, and gawk over. The famed Gosling's Rum shop is located toward the west end.

We stayed here for business and were without a car. We walked to Front st each day for our meals and to hang out. Tons of high end shops and lots of pubs and restaurants to choose from. Great spot to stay in Bermuda if you are without wheels since you have everything you need in walking distance.

The Front Street area is very pleasant and safe for walking. It is a short walk to restaurants, shopping, the library, ferry dock and parks.

Is it safe walking around?

Bermuda is safe. Front Street is hugely safe. I can’t think of any place on the Island that wouldn’t be safe. Go and enjoy.

Hi
My dad in the 50's stayed at a hotel near Front St. which the launching docks were a few yards from the hotel. He and his friend assembled a boat in the penthouse on the tenth floor of this hotel in room number 1009. The hotel manager at the time was Oscar Jakel who gave them a slap on the wrist for that little escapade. Unfortunately I don't have an actual name for the hotel.
Any hotels from that time frame still there? I want to visit and tour the area.
Thanks

Hello,
The only hotel that I know of that is close to Front street of that height would be the Hamilton Princess which opened in 1885 and has its own marina. We stayed at the hotel twice in the past year and it is a beauty.

Will be in Bermuda in late April... how's the weather at that time...???

We were there in April last year. It was lovely but chilly at night. Layers, bring lots of layers. We swam on the warmer days. The water was so beautiful we could not resist. It was not too cold. There were warmer days and colder days but as the others have mentioned, there is plenty to do on colder days. Look at the weather when you arrive and plan your beach days accordingly. Have a rum swizzle for me!

I am Going to Bermuda next week, which kind of cloth I have to take?

Light jacket . As it can get cool some days . It's expensive there so I always bring whatever I want to wear instead of buying there. Nice outfit for dinner out and don't forget your bathing suit.
Is the first week of October considered off-season will things be closed?

I've been to Hamilton three times. Hamilton is Bermuda's major city. As far as I can remember, stores, shops, and restaurants are not effected by seasonal changes, because people live there year round. Only hurricanes will cause businesses to close their doors.

I am going to Bermuda end of September, from your post I am guessing Harbor Night will still be a happening the last week of September, some posts mentioned it was only summer. Do you have any idea how late the ferry runs to the dockyard cruiseport on Wednesday night?

I think the Harbour nights schedule shows that they end 31st August though this is still to be confirmed.So you may be out of luck.

I've read several reviews about "rum cakes", and many stated they took them home. How do you get them back on the ship? I thought you aren't allowed to take food on board from the islands.

I make and sell a Bacardi rum cake myself in all my retail shops here in Bermuda. Made to my recipe. The cakes are the only Bacardi rum cake available for sale on the Island. It comes in its own sealed individual 4oz bake in pan. It is coded and is allowed for travel to the USA and other countries if not opened. It is then boxed in tissue with an outer cardboard box. 6 different flavours are available Enjoy! I also sell a 1 1/2lb cake in tin.
