    Request a room away from the street for less noise and a more restful night.

    disappointing dining

    The Ship provided a comfortable room with a pleasant atmosphere, and the staff were efficient and attentive. Great location near the Historic Dockyard made it convenient for my work commitments.

    Dining experience was disappointing with subpar food quality.

    excellent dining
    beautiful garden
    small room

    Had a lovely time enjoying dinner and breakfast, both exceeded my expectations. The garden area was perfect for chilling out, and I appreciated the cozy seating and beautiful views. The only downside was the room felt a tad cramped with two suitcases, but it didn't ruin my experience. Would definitely recommend! 😊

    limited menu
    missing options

    i had a lovely stay at the ship during my recent trip. the double room was spacious, offering a great view of the marina that truly enhanced my experience. the breakfast was particularly delightful, with fresh pastries and a variety of options that exceeded my expectations.

    disappointing sandwich

    Great modern vibes!

    Had a lovely 2-night stay! The room was super clean and cozy. I really enjoyed the food at the restaurant – the steak was on point! But watch out for that ham sandwich, total letdown. Staff were friendly and helpful, which made it even better. Perfect location too, close to everything.

    Quirky facade adds character, with free parking right outside. Rooms offer generous space, particularly the modern bathrooms, and the view of the harbor provides a nice touch for evening strolls.

    Had a couple of meals that didn't leave a good impression. the kitchen seemed overwhelmed, leading to cold dishes and long waits. The bathrooms in the reception area had a bit of a strong smell at first glance, and the decor in the rooms could use a refresher—chipped paint and dull colors felt a bit neglected for the price paid.

    modern decor
    excellent dining
    small design flaws
    slightly cramped corridors
    minor noise issues

    The double room featured both modern and historic elements, enhancing the overall ambiance. The selection of teas and coffees provided was lovely, making the stay more enjoyable. Dinner and breakfast were outstanding and offered a wide variety of choices. While the decor in the corridors was well-maintained, a few small details kept the experience just shy of being perfect. I'd gladly return to this stylish location again.

    great room but noisy downstairs

    The room exceeded our expectations with its high standard of cleanliness and modern fittings. We appreciated the thoughtful selection of teas and coffees provided, which added to our comfort during the stay.

    The noise from the pub below was noticeable during our stay.
