    cable car
    helpful staff

    It was a suitable option for a mini-vacation in London with decent value for money. We enjoyed taking the cable car to the yacht on a sunny day. Tip, Check the air conditioning upon arrival to avoid a hot night.

    awful smell

    We enjoyed watching planes at the city airport while sipping cocktails made by expert bartenders. The location is great for quick access to nearby eateries. Just a heads up, breakfast was hit or miss, but overall a nice and unique experience on a floating hotel....

    friendly staff

    central haven for park views and iconic landmarks

    I loved staying in a room with a balcony overlooking the dock, as it provided a good view while being just a short stroll away from the fine Emirates Air Line cable car and the vibrant area with the O2, perfect for leisurely weekend walks.

    The elegant chandelier in the reception area provided a warm welcome. The accessibility throughout the Sunborn was fantastic.

    Quicker service at breakfast would be appreciated.

    An Lovely Experience on a Yacht!

    Staying on this unique floating hotel was a good adventure. The staff's warmth created a cute atmosphere, and the balcony view was fine. The bar's lunch was really good. Bring a strong arm for the heavy doors!

    Executive King Room with River View was spacious with a good balcony. AC worked well. The breakfast included freshly baked croissants and quality organic juices. Staff was super attentive, especially at the bar and reception. The spa facilities were a nice touch for relaxation after exploring nearby attractions.
