We had a warm welcome from the moment that we got there. The room was so bright with windows/doors down to sides of the room. All that yoj would need. A lovely sun deck to to relax on and enjoy the late summer sun. Location for Rochester City center & surrounding area was spot on. In the morning the continental breakfast was really good to start the day. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/991FAEF40B3CF0643A9EDF57572AB8B75687C3C01694808518767.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/BA56B48E22AAC6BF40B4D26DF28976384A357A351694808583270.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5F1D0491B7E194333D625CE08752023A55137A961694808651465.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/CB44D3AF1C07CA52E424226A003962919D5894561694808676439.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Kevin Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tina Sep 18, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Feel of the Med on the Medway 😎 What a treat staying on a boat! Well worth it. So glad we chose this place. At a marina so a little out of the way. Lovely food at The White Horse Borstal. Hope to return. Need to have reasonable mobility because of steps and hill up to the pub. Jeremy and family were great hosts. We hope to return soon. Thanks for your hospitality. The breakfast was superb. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/87CDFECFF7B9A561E4BAC81AC094442D23A255171695040999597.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3C8A69E52995039FF34DFD75C1470A67A22B70C41695041055272.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/18C6C35A4B2AF0831AFF234CF141DDE788933BCD1695041315985.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Tina Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Juliette Feb 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We had a such a wonderful time on this beautiful family run boat. My husband and I stayed in the comfort quadruple room with our two young boys aged 6 and 8 to explore Diggerland and Rochester a few minutes away. We were even able to spend a day at Port Lympne Safari an hour' drive during the half-term break. Jeremy and his wife were so warm and hospitable and every little detail on the boat is exceptional. We looked forward to the fresh breakfasts every morning from croissants, pastries, breads, yoghurts, fresh fruit and best of all themed pancakes what the boys loved. Thank you for a memorable stay! ##### Juliette Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Emma May 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Emma Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Martin Apr 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Martin Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kim Dec 29, 2024 ##### Kim Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Thorsten Aug 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Außergewöhnlich, mal was anderes... Eine Nacht auf dem Schiff im Hafen ist mal was anderes. Zwei Zimmer stehen zur Buchung zur Verfügung, davon ein Familienzimmer mit einem Hochbett. Zimmer und Bad sind liebevoll eingerichtet. Frühstück gibt es unter Deck, im warmen Sommer sicherlich auch auf Deck. Gastgeben leben selbst auf dem Schiff und sind sehr freundlich und nett. Gesicherter Parkplatz auf dem Hafengelände ist fussläufig zu erreichen. Der Ort Rochester ist per zu Fuß oder per Auto (schneller) zu erreichen. Gerne wieder... ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1632BD5CFF861CC01B4EFF11977A19007AE1E5AB1723107935600.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/EE115C619F0063CE962961E2AA5CF0595C4801F01723107935565.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3DFBE0D36A5AC6037896E3F0B1F5A7E3DD974F7E1723107936074.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Thorsten Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Terence Jul 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Unique place Unique place to stay.
