Rosemont

Not to be confused with the more comfortable and more expensive Rosedon Hotel which is located nearby, Rosemont is a cluster of gray-walled cottages, each with a large veranda, on a flowered hillside near the Hamilton Princess. Two of the cottages are former private homes, built in the 1940s; the rest are more modern structures constructed within the past 2 decades. The harbor is visible from the raised terrace. Business travelers, "subdued" families, and older couples frequent Rosemont, attracted by its peace and tranquillity. There is a policy here to "keep it quiet," so the hotel usually doesn't accept college students or large groups.

Rooms are well-furnished, though we find some a little on the dark side. As many as three rooms can be joined together to accommodate families. The hotel also has three suites with private entrances and better furnishings. Each room comes with a kitchen and a small but neat private tiled bathroom.

There's no restaurant on the premises; everybody cooks in. A grocery store is close by, downtown City of Hamilton is 10 minutes away, and Elbow Beach is a 15-minute scooter or taxi ride away. Management presents a complimentary buffet of coffee and muffins every morning.

Facilities:
Babysitting; pool (outdoor); mopeds
