And, it was not the patrons who were making the noise. During breakfast, the staff cleaned the floor and vacuumed arround us. We felt we were in the way. All that should have been done prior to the patrons' arrival. ##### Dominique Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Keith 22 Feb 2025 Stay was great and service was excellent ##### Keith Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susan 20 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The Boathouse is on the river and next to the Grosvenor Park with is very pretty and a nice area to walk through to get to the city centre. We watched a rowing club practise right from our table at dinner. The wait staff in the dining room were very friendly and accommodating. It was a convenient place to have dinner and the food was good. We didn’t opt for breakfast. Our room was stylishly decorated and had a king size bed which was a nice change from other places we had stayed. The shower was very good and the bathroom also was nicely decorated. My only comment is that it is very dimly lit.
