BOAT STAYS AT ST KATHERINE DOCKS 2 AVAILABLE, SELECT USING ROOM OPTIONS, London

St Katharine Docks is a calm, secure marina with key-card access and 24-hour patrols, providing a peaceful base right in central London. Tower Bridge (450 yd) and the Tower of London (250 yd) are within a 5-8 minute walk. Tower Hill and Tower Gateway stations (each about 400 yd away) connect you to the Tube and DLR. London City Airport is 8 km away (18 minutes by car). The marina itself offers a wide choice of restaurants (Honest Burgers, Natural Kitchen, Cafe Rouge within 200 yd), a Tesco Express a 2-minute walk away, and plenty of bars. The location is suitable for sightseeing on foot, by riverboat (Clipper to the O2), or via public transport, and feels safe to return to late at night.

The Superior Cabin (motorboat) has a twin/double room with 2 beds, a private bathroom, lake views, a fully equipped kitchen (stovetop, fridge, microwave, kitchenware), desk, outdoor dining area, TV, and heating. The Family Cabin (sailboat) offers a family room with 3 beds (including bunk-style singles), a shared bathroom (marina shower block is private and well-maintained), the same kitchen kit, lake views, and outdoor dining. Both boats have new heaters, heated mattresses, tea/coffee facilities, carpeted/parquet flooring, a sitting area, a TV, and free WiFi in some rooms. The boats feel spacious for 2-4 people, and sitting on the deck with a drink is a highlight. A welcome pack includes milk, water, tea, coffee, and toiletries. There is no balcony.

There is no restaurant or breakfast service on the boats. Instead, the surrounding St Katharine Docks marina has a diverse range of restaurants, cafes, and bars within a short walk: Honest Burgers, Natural Kitchen, Cafe Rouge, Zizzi, Strada, Tom's Kitchen, and a Costa Coffee all within 50-500 yards. A Tesco Express is a 2-minute walk away for supplies. Each boat's fully equipped kitchen (stovetop, fridge, microwave) and the coffee house on site make self-catering easy, especially for breakfast or a light meal. Many enjoy sitting on deck with coffee in the morning or wine in the evening from the marina's takeaway options.

The property does not have a spa, swimming pool, or fitness centre. Leisure on board is the experience itself: relaxing on the sun terrace or outdoor furniture with views of the marina, Tower Bridge, and the Shard. The secure marina offers a quiet escape from the city yet is steps away from London's landmarks. Nearby activities include walking along the Thames, visiting the Tower of London (250 yd) and Tower Bridge, or taking a riverboat from the pier. Water sport facilities are available nearby at an additional charge, and live sport events or movie nights are also available off-site.
