A Marvellous Comfortable Stay in East London

Couldn't have been better. The staff appreciated my wife's mobility issues, They arranged parking, an accessible room and were very helpful. The room was superb , much larger than the norm and beautifully appointed. A large Queen size comfortable bed.

Large room with good quality fixtures and fittings. Great breakfast. Only downside was that the bar shut at 11pm, which I would not expect in a hotel.

Fabulous overnight visit

Spent one night here in August in a riverside room. The ship is lovely, titanic vibes. Our room was huge and had a balcony which was a nice surprise. The staff were friendly and polite. Great location for Excel. Breakfast was good too.

M only complaint would be when we tried to book dinner for 7pm we were told it was fully booked . We booked 6.30 instead . As we sat there eating we noticed that at 7 nobody else arrived and only 1 other couple after 7 . So to say fully booked was in fact not true

Most areas of the boat are inaccessible. e.g. Restricted access to top deck. Lots of roped off areas. Confined to the rear of a single deck most of the time. The staff are friendly, but could not provide a coffee on the back deck before 11am - poor service.

In need of an overhaul and update

The yacht/hotel is now looking dated. It is not a patch on its sister in Gibraltar Breakfast is a total bun fight with the whole ship expected to queue for their food situated on a small serving area with staff trying to get thru them to the kitchen and people trying to eat their food with people stood next ton them queuing. It’s dreadful
