City of Westminster

"We had a peaceful, lovely stay. Little Venice is an easy walk from Paddington Station, while also being a world in itself. The boat is cozy with a nice seating area near the entrance, a very workable kitchen, and room outside for two or three to enjoy drinks or a meal. It is a treat to see swans and other water birds out the windows. Rather than run the engine for hot water, we used the stove to warm up water for personal hygiene. The host left wood for heat, but we didn't need it. The...

"Pros: Das Ambiente ist traumhaft. Für uns ist es klar, dass wir nächstes Mal wieder ein Hausboot mieten werden, wenn wir nach Hamburg kommen. Cons: Mit dem ÖV (spricht mit dem Bus ab Bahnhof) kamen wir nicht wirklich zurecht. Wir sind keine Stadtmenschen und sind uns überhaupt nicht gewohnt mit dem ÖV unterwegs zu sein. Für uns war es am Einfachsten mit der Regiobahn zu Fahren und dann zu Fuss zum Hausboot. Die 15-20 Minuten zu Fuss war für uns kein Problem."

"We had a excellent night's stay in this hotel. Clean, quiet, modern and comfortable and an excellent location just a couple of minutes walk from Victoria station. Our room on the 9th floor even had a pretty impressive view. Breakfast was very good with a huge choice - something for everyone. We would most definitely use this hotel again."
