Sunborn London

Docklands, London, England, United Kingdom

• Full Review
• A floating super yacht hotel with serious novelty factor
• Moored right opposite Excel conference center
• Minutes' walk from DLR train station
• Easy access to London's City Airport
• Relatively spacious rooms, most with water views
• In-room Lavazza coffeemakers and Sony tablets
• Restaurant and terrace bar with water views
• Far from tourist center
• No fitness facilities

Bottom Line

The 136-room Sunborn London is an upper-mid-range hotel in the form of a 394-foot super yacht moored in London's Royal Victoria Dock. Rooms are pleasant, surprisingly spacious, and most have views over the water, though decor is more cruise liner than luxury yacht. Some rooms have spacious decks and big soaking tubs; all have coffeemakers, minibars, and flat-screen TVs. Eating and drinking options are solid though lack of fitness facilities feels like an oversight. Overall, for maritime enthusiasts with business in the area it's perfect, but tourists wanting to explore the capital's attractions should look elsewhere. Wi-Fi is free throughout.

Oyster Hotel Review

An upper-mid-range floating hotel set on a super yacht .

The Sunborn London is not only the capital's only floating hotel, it's the only one occupying a 394-foot super yacht. Built without an engine, however, it was towed from its native Finland and opened as upper-mid-range water-based lodgings in 2014. From the outside -- with its sleek marine lines -- it looks every inch the luxury vessel. Inside , however, the look and feel is deliberately more traditional, with polished brass railings, teakwood paneling, and the occasional nautical touches across all five of its floors. The resulting vibe is certainly more cruise ship (albeit an attractive one) than billionaire's playground. There's plenty of outside space on deck for enjoying the surrounding docks -- if not the most attractive of views -- accompanied by the sound of planes taking of and landing at the nearby City Airport. A solid pick for the novelty factor and for guests with business at the nearby conference center, this hotel is a bit far from main tourist attractions.

Moored in Royal Victoria Dock to the east of London's Canary Wharf

The hotel is permanently moored in the London ’s Royal Victoria Dock in the Docklands area in the east of the capital. The city's largest conference and events venue -- the Excel Center -- is located right opposite while the DLR (Dockland's Light Railway) station of Custom House is just minutes away on foot. From here it's just about 15 minutes by train to London's business district of Canary Wharf. While it's not ideally located for tourists, public transport links to the city center in around half an hour. City Airport however is right nearby and takes less than 10 minutes by car. 

Relatively spacious rooms with Sony tablets and Lavazza coffeemakers

The hotel's 136 rooms are certainly a lot larger than your average cruise ship cabins, but all follow cruise liner styling with plenty of polished teak, brass trim, and maritime touches. Unlike a cruise ship, all rooms are outward facing and most have large picture windows overlooking the water (some have small furnished balconies too). Amenities include free Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs plus sitting areas, and a Sony tablet for web browsing and ordering room service. Lavazza coffeemakers and minibars with free water also come standard. Clean, well-maintained bathrooms provide wall-mounted hairdryers, walk-in showers, and Molton Brown products. The top-end Yacht Executive Suite we saw had its own private sauna and large balcony.

Restaurant and terrace with water views, free Wi-Fi, and a small spa with massage treatments

The hotel's Lands End restaurant provides a pleasant space awash with mirrored glass and teak paneling with large windows overlooking the water. A la carte and set breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus are served with British, Asian, and Mediterranean influences. The adjoining bar provides house cocktails, snacks, and meals as well as an outdoor terrace with views of Canary Wharf and the O2 arena. A small spa also provides a range of massage treatments though there are no fitness facilities on-site. Wi-Fi is free throughout.

Overall rating

Came here for a late sunday dinner (a la "sunday roast" style) with a friend, and had a great evening. The boat is gorgeously decorated, and maintains a slight nautical feel...without an overtly present style. I think this place is great for people who enjoy dining by the water..but also get seasick. Make sure to ask for a table close to the window! The service was great, and our waiter was not only polite, but also managed to show a bit of personality (which i can appreciate). The food was really very good. We had a turkey and a beef roast...with all the trimmings. The meats were both cooked to perfection, and the trimmings were fantastic...though the generous selection of vegetables could have been a little more interestingly cooked...or at least been served with a good gravy (which was scarcely spread on the meat) The dessert was probably the least impressive part. It was good...but not quite as good as the starter and roast.

The restaurant has been doing a Groupon promotion and we took advantage of it to have Sunday lunch here. The service was pretty good, friendly but a bit quirky (no spoon for the soup!). The food was fine, good soup, main course was a generous portion but my roast beef was a little chewy in places, my partner had a vegetarian lasagne which was tasty. The dessert raspberry sorbet was a generous portion and tasted good. Wine was well priced and perfectly drinkable. The very best bit of the whole experience was the location, it was lovely to look out over the Thames without anything to get in the way. It was worth going just for the location. I would go again, for the location more than anything else, but I would be wary if I had to pay full price.

friendly atmosphere, on the riverside of london, you ll be dancing on a boat from midnite till 5 in the mornig. u can even leave earlier if u have to work the day after..don t worry...it doesn t move ;-) free on g list

I've been to more than a few events here over the years. We call it the Boat that doesn't move, accept in extreme winds. Its had 1 refurbishment, which has definitely made it a better looking place. There are 3 rooms.. with the one on lower deck being the best looking one. The sound system in the room to the right of the boat upstairs is the best. We used to also have barbecues on top deck in summer, which then gives a 4th area. Only thing that lets this place down is the toilets - please refurbish them! ... Do remember that when you leave the entrance will be much further upright, as the tide would have come in, just a point for ladies with heels.

STAY AWAY! On arrival there were five waiters standing around with only two other tables with guests and yet it took over 15 minutes for someone to take our drinks order. Then we waited patiently for another 15 minutes for our drinks to arrive. In the meantime another table that arrived after us had their order taken and drinks served. I actually had to ask the waiter for our drinks. We were with my boyfriend's parents and the service was soo poor, it was embarrassing. To make things worse, the waiter got our drinks order wrong and tried to serve white wine instead of red. When I went downstairs to use the bathroom, I found the toilet seat on the floor of the cubicle. They only just opened for dinner service but clearly noone checked the toilets to ensure they were clean. Starters were average, main course was very chewy beef, most of it left on our plates and then we had a waiter ask us for our dessert order which they have already taken at the beginning of the night but seem to have forgotten since. I obviously did not leave a tip and left feeling pretty embarrassed. I would have received better service in a Weatherspoons pub. The staff were so disorganised, rather than having one waiter look after our table, we had five who didn't communicate and made constant mistakes. I actually bought another lazy sunday meal I was originally going to give to my parents but after last night, I can only warn others to stay away. A beautiful venue ruined by below average food and very poor service.

Staff were friendly and very helpful, beautiful. My partner had his 50th birthday and he had a fantastic time

Absolutely stylish and stunning looking yacht. The views are amazing to look out from. To have an afternoon tea or to go for a evening meal or to actually stay on the yacht is an experience. Most definitely 5 stars. From receptionist to bar staff to waiters to even the cleaners everyone is accomadating. Our afternoon tea and evening meal and breakfast I most definitely could not fault at all. The cleanliness was outstanding as constantly cleaners didn't stop. For parking. I'm disabled and there is parking litterly right outside yacht.

Breakfast was very nice, staff very friendly, room was nice

Loved the novelty factor of staying on a boat, and it was a great location for me and my bedroom was lovely and big. All staff were really friendly.

The room was lovely (executive room) with a balcony looking out to the water. The Lands End Restaurant was fantastic. We had a table with a wonderful view jf the O2 and cable cars and the Lonfon skyline, the service, food and ambiance were wonderful.

Excellent location with good access to wider London

There was an exceptionally warm welcome when we dropped in our bags. Helpful tips and advice of places to visit near to where we were heading. The friendliest welcome we have ever had on the Sunborn. We were given a room upgrade to a river view which was a bonus especially as we had a really good rate on our room to start with. The room was clean and well presented. Since our last stay, liquid hand soap and shower gel has been added into the bathrooms which we really liked. Breakfast was good. There was enough choice for both of us and vegetarian options were available if requested. We love the location of the hotel as it is convenient for both the DLR and the Elizabeth line which means quick and easy travel around London.

Boat is lovely, staff delightful, but us oldies struggled with the beds and low furniture in the bar.Even the staff said they would prefer higher tables to serve on .parking was also a problem .but we had a wonderful time and would probably go back again.

Staff were very friendly and the location is lovely. Our room was spacious with a river view and balcony which was fantastic after dark with the city skyline lit up. Our meal in the restaurant was lovely and value for money. All in all it was a nice relaxing day.

Breakfast good Room good Bar overpriced Location great

109m superyacht Bravo Eugenia arrives in London

The 109-metre Oceanco superyacht Bravo Eugenia has arrived in London and berthed at Butler's Wharf Pier in Tower Bridge. According to BOATPro , the yacht began her journey to the UK capital when she departed from Lisbon approximately two weeks ago, which included a stopover in Rotterdam, the Netherlands last week.

Bravo Eugenia is famously owned by American businessman Jerry Jones, who also owns the American football team, Dallas Cowboys. Delivered in 2018, the motor yacht is christened after his wife, Eugenia Jones.

At 109 metres, Bravo Eugenia sits in the same size category as Lady Jorgia , Kaos and the newly delivered Renaissance (though the yacht doesn't quite qualify for the top 25 largest yachts in the world ).

The superyacht first hit the water in November 2018 sporting a slender, low-profile designed by Nuvolari Lenard . Jerry Jones has the inside of his yacht firmly shielded from the public eye, with interior photos hard to come by. But with a 16-metre beam to play with and British studio Reymond Langton Design at the helm, Bravo Eugenia 's interiors are surely impressive. Naval architecture is owed to   Lateral Naval Architects .

Oceanco described Bravo Eugenia as "a prime example of [our] new wave of forward-thinking yachts”, being highly efficient in spite of her impressive length. Powered by a hybrid propulsion system, she can run on a "quiet electric mode" that allows her to consume 30 per cent less fuel than other yachts in her size class.

Bravo Eugenia is one of the largest yachts to visit London in recent times – her last sighting on the Thames was in January 2022.

Large superyachts visiting London, England on the river Thames are an exciting spectacle, but also a fantastic base to access events and the central parts of the city, making London a very interesting yacht charter prospect. There are also luxury yacht marinas and berths available with more currently being developed.

On such marina is the historic St Katharine Docks in central London which has berthage for 200 luxury yachts and historic barges. A haven of tranquillity and nestled in the heart of the City of London, St Katharine’s is directly adjacent to the iconic Tower Bridge and next to the Tower of London. The marina is home to visiting and local superyachts and also provides space for private and corporate events amongst the associated commercial buildings.

St Katharine Docks has a thousand years of dramatic history to its name, making it one of the most interesting marina histories in the world.  King Edgar originally gifted 13 acres of land to 13 knights in 1125for trade. St Katharine’s docks have been used ever since throughout the ages for one purpose or another and then in 1825 construction began on the docks, laying down the framework for what you see today.

When visiting the UK with London on the itinerary, yachts also dock in the city of Southampton in south-west England. Many vessels drop anchor at Ocean Village Marina or Hamble Point Marina. Expect a coach or train journey time of around 1 hour 20 minutes from Southampton into South London.

London, the UK’s exciting capital city attracts visitors from around the world. Go shopping in Oxford Street, Regent Street as well as famous department stores like Harrods, Harvey Nichols or Selfridges. How about a night out at the theatre? Watch a play, musical, drama or ballet at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, the London Palladium or the Old Vic. There are many places to visit in London. It’s such a diverse city with some of the world’s best sights, attractions and activities. 

See the city from above on the London Eye, meet a celeb at Madame Tussaud’s or examine the treasures at the British Museum. Sightseeing couldn’t be better. Check out the underwater creatures at Sea Life London or marvel at the strange objects in the Science Museum. There really is something for everyone in London and plenty to do to make up a luxury yacht charter itinerary.

Buy a day ticket for a London, red double-decker bus on-off tour. What a great vantage point to catch fantastic views of the Houses of Parliament, Big Ben, Trafalgar Square, St. Paul’s Cathedral and of course, Buckingham Palace. You’ll get a birds-eye view of London Bridge, Tower Bridge, Westminster Abbey and the Changing of the Guard. Spend an afternoon at London Zoo, home to more than 16,000 animals like tigers, hippos, and giraffes. 

A little outside London is Kensington Palace, an intriguing Royal Palace that also houses an exhibition of Princess Diana’s dresses. Find out where Queen Victoria lived as a child and see the wonderful collection of paintings from the Royal Collection. To keep you in holiday mode, take a river cruise down the River Thames. Relax and enjoy the magnificent views as you sail past Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre, Cleopatra’s Needle, The Shard and the London Eye Pier. After so much excitement, it’s back to your superyacht in Southampton for the next part of your voyage.
