7. Cosy Canal Boat in Little Venice for Family & Friends

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...

Top Purfleet Hotel Reviews

Royal National Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"all staff welcoming, polite and helpful. beds very comfortable. good value in that price range. Will visit again."

Hotel Riu Plaza London The Westminster

8/10 Good

"The hotel was better than I had expected, for such a large property. The room was lovely, had a scandi vibe and quiet, due to the internal door separating the bedroom from the hallway. Facilities in the room were great too. Steamer, iron/ironing board etc. Breakfast was good, but the area was chaotic. It was so big and packed that the noise was quite overwhelming - I’d maybe go before 0800 for business and after 0930 for leisure, to avoid the chaos."

Bluedaws Private Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very basic accommodations,, but perfectly nice. Know what you're getting yourself into. It's very good for the price, but you're not getting top of the line quality. Amenities? No. There room was clean enough, everything was washed, though it showed some wear. The room is extremely basic, it really is just beds and a sink. One small piece of hand soap. No hand towels, no shampoo, no face cloth, etc. The shared bathroom should be a consideration for anyone coming here. It's a single bathroom with a single toilet, and a very small shower with little water pressure. It can be very inconvenient if another guest leaves a mess. There's one floor mat to share with other guests out of the shower. The whole place could do with some renovation. The toilet lid doesn't stay up and crashes down. The toilet doesn't flush every time easily. The TV antenna was completely broken. The shower head is old and doesn't seem in decent condition. The beds are small, not very comfortable and the bunk beds are very noisy, as is the street (and you must leave the window open to get some airflow). Just extremely basic. But the staff is really kind, the breakfast included is perfectly good. If you go in with right expectations, it's a nice stay. But if you expect any amenity or anything beyond a basic bed, you're asking too much for the price."
