Sunborn London offers a truly distinctive experience as a luxury yacht hotel. The location is excellent, with stunning views over the Royal Victoria Dock and easy access to the DLR for getting around the city. The rooms are spacious and well-appointed, giving a sense of elegance and comfort. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay, and check-in was smooth. Breakfast was varied and tasty, though the dining area can get busy during peak times. had to line up for food that was at 8 am when they open for breakfast One small drawback was that some areas of the ship could use a little refresh, but overall, the ambience and uniqueness more than make up for it. If you’re looking for something different from a standard hotel, Sunborn London is a great choice. I’d happily return.

We booked for my birthday in January. Arrived late evening. Lovely lady on reception very friendly and polite. Our double room had a window with river view. It was very clean and spacious with sofa, tv, tea and coffee facilities, Coffee machine and 2 bottles of water. A lovely card with a birthday message and box of chocolates on the table. The ensuite bathroom was spacious too. Had a drink in their bar area. Views of 02 from the deck is lovely. We had breakfast included which was very nice, good variety of hot and cold food and drinks. All staff are all very polite and helpful. Will definitely visit again.

Nice spacious room and very comfortable bed. Great breakfast - lots of choice and healthy options too. Particularly liked option to have mackerel and salmon. Slightly limited selection of toiletries compared to other 4 star hotels. Missed having dressing gowns. Carpets in corridors and rooms were a bit tired looking.

A great stay at the Sunborn. Room was great and comfortable and very very clean. The coffee maker in room was very good too. Staff in the hotel were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was really good too and Vegetarian sausages available on request too. I wouldn't bother with the bar as the lager was weak / not the best of taste (unbranded) and the wine ( pinot grigio ) was quite sharp.

The room was really large and clean. Lovely bed and bathroom was really nice too. There was only 1 lift working on the Saturday and we were stuck outside in the cold for about 10 minutes as the lift just never came to the dockside level. It was fixed late on the Sunday but this was an issue as we were with elderly parents who struggled with the stairs. Other than this it was a great stay.
