stayed at a unique boat with fascinating history. Loved waking up to life on the river and enjoyed the changing skies from our room. Great hosts, comfortable accommodations, and a lovely continental breakfast. Exceeded our expectations, would highly recommend and definitely return.
More photos of the views needed.

Loved staying in this 19th-century building turned boat hotel. The à la carte breakfast was delightful, and the sun terrace provided a perfect spot to soak up the views. Definitely beats staying at London City Airport!
Just wish they had a private jet for a quicker commute.

I had an amazing experience at this incredibly unique property. the hosts have paid great attention to detail, making sure everything was exceptionally clean and comfortable. the location, right on the river, was absolutely beautiful. the breakfast served by the hosts was a highlight, with a delicious continental spread and even homemade teddybear pancakes for the kids. I can't wait to stay here again and highly recommend it. Cons: Nothing to be said 🤷♀️.

We had a great time staying on this unique and historic ship. The location was perfect for our needs and the hosts were amazing. The hot water did run out quickly, but it heated up again in no time. We would have preferred a kingsize bed, but these were just minor things. we loved our stay and would definitely come back.
Can recommend this hotel.

Stayed in a boat from the 19th century, how posh! Delicious à la carte and continental breakfasts to satisfy all preferences. The sun terrace was perfect for enjoying the views and pretending I was a rich captain.
Oh, just what I needed, a noisy airport nearby! How charming.

The value for money at this unique hotel was exceptional, with a beautifully designed room and stunning views of the river. The location was perfect, and the friendly staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic stay.
The breakfast experience could have been improved with a wider variety of options.

The location of this unique hotel is just perfect. Situated on the edge of the river, you can enjoy stunning views of the changing skies and all the other boats passing by. the room is beautifully designed with lots of nice touches, and the bathroom facilities are excellent. the friendly and helpful hosts provide a delicious continental breakfast in a lovely dining area. You'll truly feel like waking up to life on the river here.
One small downside is that the stairs leading up and down from the room are quite steep, which may be a bit nerve-wracking for little ones wanting to explore independently.

Stayed on a charming boat hotel with history as a floating lighthouse. Loved the changing skies and views of the Medway from the room. Friendly hosts welcomed us with tea and cake, and we even got to enjoy a sunset on the terrace. The bedroom had lovely design touches and the breakfast room was well-presented with a variety of continental options. Cons: N/A 🤷♀️.

Enjoyed the included breakfast - good continental options. Room had tea/coffee facilities and a nice view. Owners did a great job renovating the hotel. Local pub provided a tasty dinner. Quirky boat hotel with history.
