"Such a cozy and cute place. You get to meet the owners which is so nice! Location is beyond phenomenal, next to 2 major lines that take you pretty much to central London or directly to the airport. One thing to keep in mind is due to the structure of the ship there is a lack of wifi inside the rooms. Highly recommend it for the experience and lovely owners alone. "

"Even better than described and pictured! James was so helpful and patient and an excellent host. Luxury linens, comfy furniture, and a view that can’t be beat. The surrounding area is a bit busy but we experienced nothing but peace and quiet during our stay. Very convenient location for Uber rides, too! We hope to have the chance to return. "

"This place was amazing. If you are looking for a cosy, unique, super cool place to stay this is the place for you. We loved it and want to return on our next trip. The communication was great, boat had everything you needed for your stay and was very comfortable (even the pull out couch bed). Fair warning the water pressure is low but the shower temperature was perfect. Can’t wait to go back and hope they add the their fleet. "

"We weren't sure what to expect as we've never stayed on a boat before but we were all pleasantly surprised. Check-in process was easy, we had great communication with the host and Sara met us at the entrance of the docks to show us everything we needed to know regarding the in/out procedure with the dock and anything else regarding the boat. There are two bedrooms, each one on opposite sides of the boat. One bedroom has a queen bed and the other has two twin beds with a smaller bed between them...

"If you want an accommodation just slightly outside the chaos of London and a bit original, don’t hesitate to book. Limehouse basin is a picturesque setting, with easy public transportation access to all of the main events of the city. Extremely quiet and original place to stay. Dealing with property manager and on site personnel was also easy."

"The boat was charming, clean and super convenient - thumbs up!"

"Great fun to be in the middle of London and yet be "off grid". LV is a delightful suburb too."

"We had a lovely time on the Lady Florence. I'm sure we shall return"

"On first impression, the Matrix is beautiful. It has lovely gathering spaces and is in a gorgeous setting in the marina. It was peaceful and relaxing EXCEPT there was no hot water for 3 out of 5 days of our stay and no one available to fix the issue over the weekend. The only means of communication was via email and sometimes it would be hours before we received a response. This was extremely stressful not being able to talk with a person, not receiving timely information nor to be provided with...

"This is a fun place to stay in so much as my room had a massive outside area, the bed was great and I could look out over the water to watch the fun of Canary Wharf Its very very basic. I had no shower gel etc in the shower, the toilet is a marine toilet, no water offered (or available) so needed me to visit a local shop. Its near all the bars so quite noisy. I'd stay there again but not for that price. Its too expensive for what it is. "

"What a lovely “out of the box” experience for us Canadians. Slowly rocked to sleep under such a cozy comforter. Every neighbour we met with so friendly in the area. Lovely pub nearby. Highly recommend this boat and the experience with the owners. Thank you so much and we will back "
