What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Reviews highlight the comfortable and clean accommodations, with many praising the friendly service and excellent breakfast, especially the made-to-order eggs and mimosas. However, some guests found the staff at reception to be unwelcoming and the beds to be narrow. Noise from a nearby railway bridge was also mentioned as a drawback for some.
"Cannot appraise this place enough. It ticks everything on our list. The rooms, or actually cabins, are super comfortable. The level of cleanliness is spot on and there is not an inch of wear and tear. Comfortable beds, fluffy pillows. We slept like babies!
Firiendly service and the breakfast had everything we could wish for. Even if the buffet was a bit limited it had all items you can expect. Eggs to order and mimosa are my precious!
We will be back for sure."

"Very weird staff. I wanted to ask a question and was waiting out of the door of the reception. Someone came and directly said private ship please get off. Maybe you shouldn't call it a reception if people are jot allowed there? If it's private maybe you should also not write HOTEL and CRUISE on it?"
Max Rossi
"Great location, very clean rooms, great breakfast (except the coffee - that was mediocre) and good views (if you get a riverside room). Negatives: narrow beds (80cm), very early check out (10:30)"
