Floating Fancy: Sunborn London Yacht Hotel Review

Finding the perfect hotel for a London stay can be tricky, with countless options and locations available. Sunborn London offers something a little more unusual, as it’s not your standard bricks-and-mortar establishment; pick the Sunborn, and you’ll be staying on an extravagant yacht. But while it stands out from the crowd visually, does the rest stand up to scrutiny?

Sunborn London Yacht Hotel, to give it its full title, is located at Royal Victoria Dock, an area of east London that has undergone extensive regeneration and is home to the Excel exhibition centre. Despite its Docklands location, the Sunborn yacht is easy to get to, thanks to the new Elizabeth Line that runs through the city, with stops at Heathrow Airport, Paddington, Bond Street and Liverpool Street, to name just a few, where you can connect to most other London underground lines. Arriving by car isn’t too much of a chore either, and with ExCel next door, ample parking is available just a few minutes walk from the hotel.

Arriving at Sunborn London certainly makes an impression. The vast open space in front of the floating hotel allows you to take in the size as you get closer to the riverfront. There’s a lift at dock level – one of few signs that the yacht was indeed built specifically for this purpose – which takes you directly to the stylishly designed reception level, where you are greeted by friendly staff, ready to check you in for a stay.

While the purpose-built yacht might not have sailed the Mediterranean, it still has all the features of a sea-going vessel, with heavy doors and raised sills. There’s even an impressive cruise ship-esque double staircase in the middle of the reception area, which is finished off with a crystal chandelier, adding a touch of elegance.

Sunborn London Yacht Hotel: The Room

We spent the night in a mid-range ‘Yacht Executive’ room with a balcony overlooking the surprisingly blue waters of the docks. The room was spacious and comfortable, with a good-sized desk area should you combine business with pleasure. There were a good number of plug sockets dotted about the room and at each side of the bed – something often overlooked – with a mix of UK and European sockets, which was a nice touch. Everything you would expect was there, including tea and coffee making facilities, a fridge and a safe, should you need them.

The bathroom was a reasonable size, with a spacious enough shower. Confusingly though, rather than having a simple shower control, there was a bath mixer tap with a shower attached. Once the water was turned on, a toggle needed to be pulled to direct the water through the shower head. With no bath in sight, this seemed rather odd.

Unlike the smaller rooms on the lower two levels, our room had floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the water, with a double-glazed door leading out onto our little balcony, complete with two chairs. While it was a nice little bit of outside space, it wasn’t well designed in that once seated in the chairs, the view was of the solid steel safety barrier rather than the river. Perhaps some safety glass would be a better bet.

Despite that, it felt like a well-thought-out space, with considerate touches ranging from the surfeit of power sockets to the welcome bottles of water. Between 19 and 23m3, the rooms aren’t huge on paper, but clever use of space and light makes them feel far more generous than they could.

Throughout the cabins and the public areas of the yacht, there are lots of mirrors, reflective surfaces and warm coloured wooden panelling, which adds to the character of Sunborn London, and adds to the sense of space, leaving you in no doubt that you are onboard a vessel.

Sunborn London Yacht Hotel: Lands End Restaurant

The onboard restaurant is located at the vessel’s rear, with an outside space providing views towards The O2 and Canary Wharf. Like the rest of the public areas, it is adorned with warm-coloured wood and reflective surfaces, making it feel both welcoming and light and airy.

We began by perusing the wine list and decided on a bottle of prosecco – such glamorous surroundings deserved a few bubbles! The bottle arrived at the table, was opened and poured, only to find that it had been served at room temperature. Our waiter did try to rectify this error, but the second bottle had also not been chilled. A cold bottle was eventually found from the Sundown Bar on the deck below, but two bottles had been wasted by this stage. It’s an amateur mistake to make and set a low bar for the rest of the evening.

Nevertheless, we put this mishap to one side and checked out the food offering. The menu had a good selection of options, with meat and seafood dishes available. However, the choice for those following a vegetarian or vegan diet was very limited.

I selected the mixed marinated olives as my starter, and my dining companion opted for the Gazpacho. Both arrived quite quickly and were tasty and fresh.

The main course was more of an issue, as I suffer from lactose intolerance. My only option was wild mushroom risotto with vegan cheese and grated truffle, with a seasonal house salad on the side. My companion had more choice and opted for the ‘Sunborn’ fish ‘n’ chips, which consisted of beer battered haddock, pea puree and chunky chips.

When the food did arrive at the table, it looked well presented, and while the fish fillet did look relatively small, the risotto was somewhat more substantial.

The wild mushroom risotto was well cooked, the risotto rice was tender, and the dish was well seasoned and tasty. The side salad, however, did leave a little to be desired. There was little or no dressing to add flavour, which was disappointing.

The fish and chips were fine, if unexciting. It’s a dish that’s difficult to get wrong but also difficult to impress with. The kitchen managed to stay in its lane, offering something perfectly acceptable, with fresh chips and tasty mushy peas, although portions were a little meagre.

Dessert was again lacking in options for my needs or those on plant-based diets, with fruit and sorbet being the only, somewhat unimaginative, options. I reluctantly opted for the three flavours of sorbet, while my dining companion opted for the much tastier sounding Bakewell tart with ice cream.

The Bakewell tart arrived without a hitch, but the lack of attention to the order in the kitchen meant that I was served two scoops of sorbet and one scoop of ice cream instead of three of sorbet. Luckily I noticed before I started to eat it, and I immediately notified the manager of the error. My issue is an intolerance rather than an allergy, but had it not been, this could have been a more significant problem.

With few guests in the restaurant the night we dined, there was little excuse for the multiple errors. While a long way from fine dining , the food was perfectly acceptable, but the lack of imagination in the menu and the lack of care in serving the drinks and meal tarnished the experience.

Sunborn London Yacht Hotel: Sundown Bar

After dinner, we headed down a deck for a nightcap at the Sundown Bar. As you enter the bar, lights and reflective surfaces surround you from every angle, making it just a little overwhelming against the dusk outside. We decided the sensory overload was a little too much, so we chose a seat on the outside deck with views along the docks to The O2 beyond.

The overall environment and vibe of the place were pleasant and lively, with most patrons spending their time either gazing into each other’s eyes or gazing at the myriad lights of the city twinkling away in the distance. A surprising amount of time can be wasted simply watching the Emirates Air Line cable cars crossing the river, their red lights floating across the skyline in contrast to the blue and white lights of the city.

There is a good selection of drinks available, but they are a little pricey, even allowing for London prices. A Diet Coke and a double Woodford Reserve bourbon came in at £20. The service was swift and friendly, recovering from the faux pas at dinner and rounding off our evening well.

Sunborn London Yacht Hotel: Breakfast

Breakfast the following day was on the outside deck of the Lands End restaurant and consisted of a cooked breakfast from the kitchen alongside a self-service buffet. The mix of table service for the hot food and self-service for the rest isn’t that unusual, but it was also self-service for tea and coffee, which, for a luxury hotel , is much less common. Disappointingly, there was hardly any hot water left in the urn to make tea, and what was there was lukewarm at best.

The breakfast was perfectly adequate and served quickly, suggesting that it is precooked in the kitchen and then plated up when ordered. While that’s not a significant problem, it is disappointing to be served fried eggs that have been kept warm a little too long when a fresh egg takes only a minute or two to cook.

Sunborn London Yacht Hotel: The Verdict

With countless highly-rated dining options within just a few minutes’ walk from the Sunborn, it’s a surprise and disappointment that the restaurant can’t match the standards that the rest of the hotel sets. With those other options available, though, it’s not something that should put you off, as it’s the hotel that holds the appeal.

How guest reviews work

Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.

You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.

We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.

Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.

Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):

Politically sensitive comments
Promotional content
Illegal activities
Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
Spam and fake content
Animal cruelty
Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
Any violation of our review guidelines.

To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.

An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.

When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).

We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.

Guidelines and standards for Reviews

These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.

Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.

Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.

All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.

Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.

The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.

By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

Our room was quite noisy with banging of the external door and gangplank which woke us up. We had a meal in the bar - incredibly small portions and incredibly high price - dish of the day was wrongly described! Suggest to go to other local restaurants in close proximity.

Lovely luxurious yacht in great location for Excel Cente, O2 and cable car - easy access via Elizabeth Line

The aircon didn’t work in our room and given the type of hotel it was, being a yacht we didn’t have a window. This might not have been as bad for others but it was a warm night and I’m heavily pregnant so I really struggled to sleep due to overheating. The doors also slam shut and we were woken several times from the sound of other rooms bathroom doors slamming shut during the night/ early morning

The hotel was so unique, we found it fascinating!

Sunborn Yacht Hotel London review – a bargain London 5* hotel or a sinking feeling?

The Sunborn Yacht Hotel London always looked very smart and rather a fun way to stay in London, so when I needed somewhere to stay in the East of London due to the train strikes, I thought I would give it a go. It was originally built as an ocean-going yacht but then was turned into a hotel before it was ever used as a proper yacht and actually has no engines.

In this post:

Price and booking

I booked direct with Sunborn and paid £233.10 which for a Friday in December was fairly cheap for London. This was the flexible rate which allowed cancellation until 2pm on the day. It said that if you book direct you get a complimentary upgrade. It was also one up from the base room being a river view rather than the dockside view.

If you are interested in staying there is currently a decent offer with Groupon for a Classic King Room with Dockview for Two with Breakfast from £149 per night. They also have an offer on their own website for 20% off if you stay one night, valid for stays until the end of April 2023.

Location and The Yacht

The yacht is moored right next to the Excel so it has decent transport options within a few minutes walk. I arrived on the IFS Cloud Cable car via North Greenwich tube on the Jubilee line and caught an amazing sunset. It is around 7 minutes to walk from the cable car. There is also the Customs House that is on the DLR and Elizabeth line to the side of the Excel around 5 minutes walk away.

Check-in at Sunborn Yacht Hotel London

There was quite a queue when I arrived at around 3.30pm and then when I did check in it wasn’t the fastest process. The person helping me had to keep walking away to sort out a trainee on another booking which I found quite rude and it was a rather laborious process considering I had already checked in online.

They asked if I wanted to leave a credit card on file, to which I agreed as I needed to use room service and also planned to have breakfast.

Sunborn Yacht Hotel London room

The Yacht Classic Riverview Room I had booked appear to only be on the lowest floor. The room did promise “excellent river views” which I got since I was practically in it, but I couldn’t see much else. The upgrade that it promises for booking direct (subject to availability, of course) was not forthcoming either.

There was often a long wait for the lifts as you had to use them even to get from reception to the way out one level above.

My first impression of the room was good, being a large size and more like a Junior Suite. There was a desk for working or doing your hair/make-up with a socket nearby and a huge mirror. However, the light in the room was quite dark in this area.

The TV was a bit ancient (a bit like the decor) but it did the job.

Sunborn London Yacht Hotel Nespresso Machine

There was a Lavazza coffee machine and a kettle and even some biscuits, which always cheers me up in a hotel room (simple things…). There was also a fridge with two bottles of free water.

Hildon water in Sunborn London Yacht Hotel Refrigerator

I liked that there was a large area for you to lay out your suitcase for unpacking. There was more storage space than most people could ever want or need unless you were staying more than a week.

The bed sadly was not comfortable at all and I ended up with back ache after tossing and turning all night. As I always caveat, I am very sensitive to beds, having paid a lot of money for a great Hyponos one at home. When I looked in closer detail I could see why as the mattress was incredibly thin.

The bathroom was also not particularly luxurious and definitely felt like a yacht bathroom being very small.

Toiletries were provided which did the job but were nothing special.

The towels were rather thin and old too.

Food and drink at Sunborn Yacht Hotel London

I needed to eat something before I headed out for the night since I had not had lunch either. There was a fair choice on the room service menu but I went for the standard burger as I knew it was likely to be a fairly boozy evening that needed some sustenance.

It arrived in around 25 minutes but was missing my drink, so I had to wait quite a while for them to fetch that as well, which was annoying. I also found it very odd that I had to pay the delivery person directly when I left a card with reception. I have never experienced that before. You could see the menu from a QR code and order online, which I like. The burger was tasty, and it was good to get a chutney on the side.

Breakfast was not included, but for the sake of the review, I went to try it. Again it was weird that I had to pay with my card when I came in. None of this leaves a very luxury hotel-type impression.

The breakfast was a buffet which was set out with the food in one place and then the tea and coffee somewhere separate. I ended up with coffee as when I first went up there was no tea available.

The buffet had a reasonable selection including a full cooked english, smoked salmon, meats and cheeses along with pastries and bread.

The way it was presented was a bit odd as it didn’t look great and made it hard to see what there was.

As well as the restaurant which is also open for afternoon tea and dinner, there is the Sundown bar which would be lovely for sitting outside in the summer. (Not so much in the snow!)

Conclusion for Sunborn Yacht Hotel London

While this is not really what I would call a luxury hotel experience, you do get a lot of space in your room, which you would struggle with in many hotels. It is certainly a unique experience, and for something that is a decent price and fairly smart, it is not a bad choice. Would I rush back again? No, but if I was attending something at the Excel I would consider it if the price was right.

Thanks Michele for highlighting this deal, and for giving an honest and thorough review. It doesn’t sound perfect, but I’m giving it a go next month as the price is reasonable for London and it helps solve a problem that was coming up! It’s always good to hear here about places that are a bit different.

Thankyou for your review, I also may consider this in the future. I was shocked at your picture of how thin the mattress was! Did you leave feedback for management on the concerns you raised in your report? I would be interested to know their reply if they do get back to you if you did let them know. You don’t mention how much you paid for breakfast and your burger meal. I guess we could check this online in advance?

Thankyou once again for your time. Please keep up your reviews, I find them really interesting 🙂

Thanks Rob. I don’t generally leave feedback unless it is a fault in service that they can rectify. Most brands and hotels read the reviews anyway via their PR agency. The burger was £18.50, and I think breakfast was around £18 also.

Hi Michelle, Thankyou very much for your reply. Much appreciated.

Agree with your review Michele. We were underwhelmed by the yacht – we did pay full price. Horrid decor, average service and that annoying lift to get off the boat!

Thank you Michele saved me some money as I was thinking about staying here. Now I think I will find somewhere else. Love an honest review

Afternoon tea at a 5 star hotel, count us in. Since Gibraltar is under British control English is their spoken language. Our bus driver Shannon took us completely around this little island before bringing us to the stop for a snack and tea before returning us to the port drop off point. I'm glad we chose to book a shore excursion, get off the ship, learn about the history of Gibraltar and drive past The Rock. Little Sandwiches of ham, rolled tuna, cucumber, plus some sweets. Definitely not a fancy high tea like at Boston Library or my favorite white hotel with columns in Waikiki. This was a simple choose your own tea bag, pour your own hot water, help yourself to the two layer items split between 4 people. My favorites were the ham sandwich the bread was super soft, the ham sliced so thin. The scone or crumpet like a biscuit to cut in half to add some clotted cream and jam from a mini jar of jam. Shannon was knowledgeable and the kindest tour guide who helped whoever needed assistance onto a collapsible stool onto and off the bus.

Hair there. That's right, I found a hair on the wall near the hair dryer in the bathroom. I went to the lobby desk told them about it and requested a new room. The person told me all the rooms were booked that night which is amazing because she never looked to see. Clearly she is Psychic. She notified housekeeping and told them to do a double cleaning in the bathroom. They showed up, wiped off the hair, found a couple of spots on the floor, wiped that up with a hand wet towel thing and that was it. They told me this happens all the time because the girls clean fast. I should note I told the GM about this via their post stay survey. They responded by saying they did a thorough cleaning job. If that's thorough, I'm FDR. The room is ghastly. Totally dated as in 80s. I was afraid to use rhe shower which the bathroom had tiles, and old days decor. I mean it screamed 50s in appearance. The bed is hard, and basically just a mattress like thing on top of two blue bases. Mine nearly came off. I did have a water view. Room food options via service is poor and good luck getting into the restaurant. They will make a made to order omlette for breakfast, but the spread is poor and you have to go early, as I did for one day, to have hot. I note one day, because I checked out of that dump and went to the Novotel next to it, which is 1000 times better. Let me put it this way. 3rd class on the Titanic would have been better. The Posiden Adventure with you hanging on a Christmas tree upside down would have been better. Dump.

This is a different way to stay in a hotel, a dry docked boat. Overall the service was not bad and the rooms are decent. There is a restaurant and bar which is not bad. I was there for a party and they did a good job hosting the party. They are friendly and helpful. the rooms are a bit pricy so get prepared for that. Overall I would recommend and would stay again.

See the table in the picture? It has a nice view right? And it was empty when we arrived, and still empty when we left 1.5 hours later. But there were only 2 of us so we weren't allowed to sit there. Jus watch it from the middle of the room. They made accommodations to find space for other people outside, even though we'd requested this at booking time. Not for us though. Pretty poor service experience all 'round really.

Beautiful yatch in docks at East London. I attended and was playing music for a birthday party on the top deck. Place looked amazing and the staff where very friendly. The look of the boat is very plush. Didn't try the restaurant but we had warm canapé which was nice and presented well. Would like to spend a night and eat at the restaurant to access this hotel better.

We stumbled across this yacht while looking for somewhere to have a drink before heading to the O2. It was a really beautiful day and so the deck looked like a perfect place to sit for a couple of cocktails! The setting is really lovely, especially in the sunshine. Very dramatic views of the Thames all the way round the boat, and on a sunny day the water even looked appealing. The service was friendly & attentive. The cocktails were OK (a little on the pricey side, but to be expected). You're definitely paying for the setting though, which I would say is worth it! A really great place to come for something a little different.

Colourful cocktails!

View from the deck

We was looking for somewhere to take two little boys that was a little different. My son had two trips to Disney cancelled due to Covid, so I let him pick where we go. He absolutely loved the idea of staying on a boat so we opted for the Sunborn. I'm so so glad we did. Everything about this stay was perfect. The hotel is immaculate. The breakfast and evening meal were superb. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The bed, honestly the most comfy bed I have ever slept on. The best thing though was the service from a gentleman named Micheal. He went above and beyond to make this a special stay for both the adults and the children. I've never experienced such amazing service and thoughtfulness and I've stayed in many hotels. In my opinion this is a five star hotel and the service (thanks to Micheal) is the best in the world. When someone ensures the children have an amazing stay, as a parent you could wish for nothing more. Thank you for having us. We will be back. There are also treatment rooms, we didn't get to experience them but we are planning to the next time we stay. If you are considering staying at this hotel then go for it, you will not be disappointed.

Great location, good service, and nice venue. This is still a "hidden gem" for those who are needing hotel rooms or meeting space near the ExCel Convention Center. Docked permanently across the grass park from ExCel and Hotel Novotel, the Sunborn's impressive profile welcomes guests up its gangplank entrance aboard a unique yacht venue that can accommodate overnight guests or double as meetings/events space. Opened recently in the summer of 2014, this venue is quick to catch up to speed with the service and support of the most seasoned hotel properties in the area...and has worked through most of the learning curve issues that most brand new most of the learning curve issues that most venues painstakingly take awhile to work out.

Sunborn Yacht...great location for hotel or meeting space if you are attending the ExCel Convention Center

Just okay, but honestly not as nice of a hotel as we anticipated. The view from our room (the side opposite the water) is pretty disappointing. Our room tablet says the hotel bar is open until 2am on Saturdays, but late Sat night when we planned to order service, reception at the front desk told us those are old hours and it actually closes at 1am; staff said these hours were valid a year ago. Not sure why this hasn't been updated? Very well-made cocktails in the bar, but pricey. The queen bed in our room is actually more like two beds pushed together (there is a gap in the middle) which makes it a bit more uncomfortable for my fiancé and I to sleep closely. We can frequently hear very loud footsteps outside our room reverberating through our room, and there is no ventilation in the bathroom which has made our room stuffy. Service in general has been decent.

I wish I had the same experience as everyone else here but I did not at all! We arrived and were put into room 1030. When we got in, we noticed it was quite warm and stuffy so we turned the air down. We had plans so we left our stuff and came back, and it was still warm. I looked at the temp and it was 25* when we had turned it down to 15*. We tried dealing with it, turning it off and on, etc and nothing worked. My boyfriend and I don't like complaining so we just went to bed. I woke up an hour after falling asleep drenched in sweat, the temp was now 26* and I am mad and sweaty. I call down and they switch our rooms. SAME problem at 1046! The air is like on 23 when we get in, we turn it down to 16, and it has stayed above 22 all night, ranging from 22-26! SO annoying! I feel like others have had this problem before in these rooms and they put us in these rooms anyways! The carpet has huge brown stains, couch had brown stains, bathroom was tiny, everything is so outdated! Not worth the money I spent at all! When I told the staff at checkout, she said that if we paid for another night they would upgrade us to the water view! As if that was any kind of reconciliation. Ugh will not be back ever ever.

Sunborn London Yacht Hotel review

Editor-in-Chief Alex Fisher ventures aboard the Sunborn Yacht Hotel in the London Docklands

WHAT’S THE BUZZ? A trip into London, whether for shopping or visiting friends and relatives, might be daunting for some who live in quieter locations beside the sea, but the Sunborn London Yacht Hotel offers a calmer setting, moored on the River Thames in Docklands. After a busy day you can retire to this quieter spot and have a cocktail while you watch the sun setting over the river and re-energise for the following day. The rather grand décor – with its chandeliers and brass fittings –and welcoming reception staff combine to create an unusual atmosphere for a London hotel, it almost feels as though we are heading off on a cruise! Just a five-minute walk from the Emirates Air Line cable car link, it was great fun to head skyward and travel over the Thames in what felt like a giant glass bubble, before jumping on the Tube at North Greenwich Station to swiftly travel into town.

WHAT ARE THE ROOMS LIKE?  So much bigger than a regular room in London at these kinds of prices! Many of the rooms have space for a desk, small table and chairs as well as an en-suite shower room, TV, tablet, air conditioning and Wifi. The wood, brass fittings and portholes give the rooms a nautical feel, which is set against a plain chocolate brown and fawn colour scheme. Cleanliness is paramount and the hotel has attained Visit England’s ‘We’re Good to Go’ Covid standard.

BEST SEA VIEW? Obviously, there’s no sea view, but there are uninterrupted views over the Thames from the bar and restaurant. Many bedrooms also have a great river view and their own little balcony.

HOW ABOUT THE FOOD?  The Sundown Bar offers a menu with classic appeal including fish and chips and a rib-eye steak served with thyme-roasted tomatoes. The gin-smoked salmon starter with horseradish was very good (priced at £13.50) and my friend enjoyed the ham hock terrine with homemade piccalilli (£12.50). The main courses start at £14.50 for a chicken Caesar salad or a club sandwich, rising to £29 for the steak. The Sunborn also offers a classic afternoon tea.

ECO-CREDENTIALS?  The company states that its purchase policies take into account the options of either going without or reducing plastic and say the environment is an important part of its decisions. All the glass and recyclables are separated from the rubbish to help with recycling.

ACCESSIBILITY? There are 10 designated accessible bedrooms on the yacht. The hotel also has a lift and there is Blue Badge parking just outside the Sunborn too.

WHAT WILL IT COST? Rooms start from a very reasonable £120pp, per night. To book, call 0203 7148111 , email [email protected] or visit sunbornhotels.com/london .  Please check current government travel advice before booking any trip.

Lands End Restaurant: Take Your Taste Buds on a Voyage of Discovery

A break on board our luxury super yacht is designed to be a treat for all the senses. We want our guests to not only be able to relax in beautifully designed rooms, or to be invigorated and inspired by our sumptuous décor and spectacular setting, but also to have their palates taken on a journey of discovery by our team of dedicated, ground-breaking, and highly talented chefs. That’s why we’ve put as much thought, care, and attention into the creation of our stunning Lands End restaurant as we have to every other aspect of this Sunborn Hotel.

Lands End Restaurant Menu

Lands End Restaurant Wine List

In our beautiful and elegant restaurant, you’ll find an array of striking and memorable flavours, an inspiring range of local and seasonal ingredients, and menus and wine lists specifically curated to take you to new heights of sensory pleasure. Thanks to the deft hands and visionary approach of our Executive Head Chef, we’re able to serve our esteemed guests dishes which capture something of the dynamism and thrill that is the very heart of London culture. As a result, to dine on board Sunborn’s luxury superyacht is to go on a voyage into a realm of flavour, aroma, and texture, and to treat yourself to something truly out of the ordinary.

The Setting

Our restaurant takes its name from the original moniker of the Victoria Docks in which our vessel is moored. We wanted Lands End to have a deep connection with its setting – after all, this is the dockland from which the British Empire was expanded, and a location which helped shape the world as we know it today. Just as diners can enjoy unparalleled views of the lights of the dock twinkling from the ever-changing waters of the Thames, they can also indulge in a sense of history, of time and place, and of Old World elegance and sophistication.

Our dining room effortlessly blends the old with the new, the classic with the contemporary, and the vintage with the avant-garde. Spacious, beautifully ambient, and boasting the kind of views unattainable from anywhere else in the capital, to dine on board our vessel is a delight for the eyes as much as it is for the palate.

London is one of the most culturally diverse and colourful cities on earth, and Lands End Restaurant successfully captures some of that dynamism on the plates we curate in our state-of-the-art kitchen. Our Head Chef is as passionate about delicious and quality ingredients as he is about constructing dishes which sing of fusion, flavour, and cross-cultural references. As a result, you’ll find dishes which take their influences from all across Europe, as well as Asia and elsewhere in the empire once discovered from this historic harbour.

Here at Sunborn, we believe in giving our guests the true freedom of choice, and in ensuring that each choice on offer is as sumptuous and inspiring as the next. That’s why we offer a beautifully elegant and classic set menu for both lunch and dinner between Monday and Thursday, and an exciting and varied a la carte menu each day of the week. We have no doubt that within its pages, you’ll find something perfectly suited for your own personal taste, as well as plenty of new favourites to uncover.

No great dining experience would be complete without a wine list which does justice to the delicious dishes on offer, and Lands End Restaurant truly excels when it comes to the bottles in our cellar. Our trained sommeliers have hand-picked the red, white, rosé, and sparkling wines on offer, and would be more than happy to recommend perfectly-paired wine by the bottle or glass to match the meal of your choice.

We also have a stunning range of fortified wines from across Europe, as well as quality and exclusive spirits and other drinks for your delectation.

*Our Dress code is smart casual. As one of the premier dining venues in the UK, Lands End Restaurant regrets that entry will not be allowed to those wearing shorts, flip flops, sports clothing.” A strict and respectable smart casual dress code applies in order for all our guests to enjoy an exclusive and elegant experience on board the UK’s only super luxury yacht.

The Five Foot Traveler

Reaching new heights, sunborn super yacht hotel review (gibraltar).

by Sarah Gallo | Feb 15, 2016 | Accommodation Reviews , Europe , Gibraltar , Reviews | 0 comments

Many people have heard of Gibraltar, or at least the Rock of Gibraltar, but likely know little else about this small, British territory. Gibraltar may be known for only a few things: the massive limestone ridge that rises high into the sky overlooking Gibraltar itself (the aforementioned Rock), and its proximity to Morocco. Gibraltar is also a little piece of England in the south of Spain where prices are in British Pounds, shops and restaurants speak English, and they even have those iconic red phone booths on street corners.

For the night before our departure for Morocco, we booked our stay at the Sunborn Super Yacht Hotel in Gibraltar. The Super Yacht is docked in a fairly ideal location; it is a fifteen minute walk from the border with Spain and to the lift that brings you atop the Rock of Gibraltar. The hotel is right on the boardwalk, with access to plenty of bars and restaurants if you'd like a bite to eat when you're out on the town.

Upon entering the Sunborn Super Yacht, I immediately felt like a VIP as I walked through the grand lobby and reception area to check in.

Sunborn Super Yacht Hotel Gibraltar Entrance

That feeling continued as I opened the door to our room and my jaw dropped. Our modern room with a king sized bed and beautiful balcony overlooking the harbor was outstanding.

Sunborn Super Yacht Hotel Gibraltar Suite

Everything was controlled by touch screen displays, curtains opened with the flick of a button, and an open bathroom added a romantic ambiance to our room.

Outside the room things were just as fantastic. The classy and sophisticated restaurant and bar was located on the uppermost deck, and overlooked Gibraltar and the bay.

Sunborn Super Yacht Hotel Gibraltar Deck

The top deck also housed the best fitness center I've seen at a hotel, and had a gorgeous view to help you push through tough workouts. The gym was fully equipped with machines for weights and cardio, in addition to free-weights and more.

The infinity pool and adjacent bar are also located on the top level.

The Sunborn Super Yacht Hotel is magnificent. For anyone that enjoys gambling, you won’t want to miss the Sunborn Casino located at the stern either.

We reluctantly left the Sunborn to explore Gibraltar. There is not much really to see, and everything is far more expensive than in Spain. So, it came as no surprise that the trip to the top of Gibraltar Rock was pricey. If you want to go up yourself and walk the length of the Rock, explore some caves, and see the monkeys, it will cost you something in the realm of $100 USD. We decided, however, to drive our car up the Rock for free after 6pm.

We were astounded by the views sunset offered. What a view it was from the top of Gibraltar Rock at night.

If it fits into your schedule, sunset from the Rock of Gibraltar is not to be missed! For accommodation of the highest class, book your stay at the Sunborn Super Yacht Hotel. You most definitely will not be disappointed!

I selected the mixed marinated olives as my starter, and my dining companion opted for the Gazpacho. Both arrived quite quickly and were tasty and fresh.

When the food did arrive at the table, it looked well presented, and while the fish fillet did look relatively small, the risotto was somewhat more substantial.

Ages of children, sunborn london.

At the regenerated Royal Victoria Dock in east London, a gleaming moored ship is home to the swish Sunborn London. This yacht hotel's spacious 'cabins' offer a very different night’s stay in the capital.

Telegraph Review

Facebook Icon
WhatsApp Icon

Sunborn London is right by the ExCel London exhibition centre and a short walk from Custom House DLR; it certainly adds a touch of originality to the revitalised Royal Victoria Dock – once the largest of the three royal docks. It also sits next to the high-level footbridge (accessed by lift) to Silvertown. You can see the O2 Arena (now planned to be a designer shopping village), and the eye-catching Emirates Air Line cable car is nearby too.

Along the dock, The Crystal has an exhibition about sustainability and a good café, the attractions of Greenwich are a couple of stops away, and in the summer, the popular Royal Victoria Beach opens again with a sandy beach, deckchairs and bouncy castle. City Airport isn’t far away either – the planes can be noisy and distracting early in the morning.

Style and Character

The Finnish-built yacht may have never graced the ocean waves – it has no engine and was pulled by tug down to its current berth four years ago – but it looks the part. The gleaming white 420ft design with its distinctive prow is set over five decks and is awash with shiny brass fittings and mirrors, cream panelling and Finnish oak stained with a distinctive orangey hue. The curved double staircase in the centre is complimented by a grand chandelier and the overall feel is of a ship keen to make an impression. Sunborn has another yacht hotel in Gibraltar and two spa hotels in Finland.

Service and Facilities

Service is bright and efficient, beginning with the warm welcome at the reception desk. The small Decleor & Carita Symphony Spa has two therapy rooms with a variety of massages and treatments. There are useful in-room tablets that offer everything from hotel details to news updates and what to do in the area and even a potted history of the capital. The Sunday Movie Club is a regular package including a film in the auditorium, afternoon tea, glass of prosecco, and popcorn during the film.

Room service

The 136 rooms and four suites are the chief attraction because of their size – they are much bigger than most in the capital (even the Classic rooms are 23 square metres). All have solid doors and are spacious and very comfortable, if a little underwhelming on the design front. Pictures range from London scenes to ships, and windows are porthole-style. There’s also an in-room tablet and a Lavazza coffee machine. Bathrooms are of a decent size with showers and White Company products. The Executive suites are great fun, with whirlpool baths, showers, a sauna and a huge balcony. A wrench to leave.

Food and Drink

The bright Sundown Bar – again all wood and gold fittings – offers views across the dock towards the O2 Arena; you can sit outside too – great for sunsets. Cocktails start from £11.50. The Lands End restaurant is another bold room offering Docklands views and a varied Mediterranean menu with Asian influences; the seared tuna loin with cracked pepper (£14) and braised pork belly (£24) were both very good. Breakfast is fine, a small buffet selection and à la carte choices such as the full English for £20.

Value for Money

Doubles from £160 year round. Buffet breakfast included. Free Wi-Fi.

Access for guests with disabilities?

There is a lift, but the rooms are not particularly accessible.

Family-Friendly?

The novelty aspect may appeal to younger guests, there's a children’s menu and rooms are suitable, but overall, it's more of a grown-up atmosphere, and the location is not that child-friendly.

The only mild issue during my stay was the AC: in our room it wasn't working, but fortunately it wasn't too hot and I could keep the window open. Other minor criticisms were the tidying of the rooms in the afternoon - I have a preference for having my room cleaned in the morning - and the entrance/exit with the lift, which I found a bit inconvenient especially when there was a queue.

The place is very pleasant, nicely furnished and it gives the vibes that you would expect from a yacht, the staff is helpful, the location is convenient and very efficiently connected with the Elisabeth line to Canary Wharf, the City and Central London and all the major airports. Rooms are clean and spacious, and beds are comfortable. The food at the bar on the top floor is delicious. Breakfast is very well organised with a buffet well replenished and good coffee. All in all a great place, which I will be happy to book again.

• Executive Family Room

Not all facilities were in use. Breakfast could have extended it´s finishing time considering many people use this hotel for O2 concerts and therefore have late evenings! Our room was situated next to the main door and so therefore was extremely noisy! Also, the doors were so very stiff and slammed shut abruptly, very noisy and heavy, however I do understand this is usual for a boat!

Breakfast was very good. The outdoor terrace bar had amazing views. Excellent location.

My allergies are fish nuts and dairy products and although I appreciate safety will be the main concern every other hotel we have stayed at has always been able to cater for me.

Review: the 5-star Sunborn Yacht Hotel, Gibraltar
A 'standard' hotel on the edge of the marina would have the same views and could also have a full-size pool deck. To that extent, the Sunborn is a wasted opportunity. You won't get any better in terms of interiors or design in Gibraltar, however. My Superior room cost £644 for two nights.
Sunborn Yacht Hotel London review
Sunborn Yacht Hotel London room. The Yacht Classic Riverview Room I had booked appear to only be on the lowest floor. The room did promise "excellent river views" which I got since I was practically in it, but I couldn't see much else. The upgrade that it promises for booking direct (subject to availability, of course) was not forthcoming ...

Sunborn Super Yacht Hotel Review (Gibraltar)
The Sunborn Super Yacht Hotel is magnificent. For anyone that enjoys gambling, you won't want to miss the Sunborn Casino located at the stern either. We reluctantly left the Sunborn to explore Gibraltar. There is not much really to see, and everything is far more expensive than in Spain. So, it came as no surprise that the trip to the top of ...

Gibraltar may be known for only a few things: the massive limestone ridge that rises high into the sky overlooking Gibraltar itself (the aforementioned Rock), and its proximity to Morocco.
