Where can you enjoy London’s floating stays with The Boathouse

Paddington East – perfect for events and private dining with a difference

Paddington East is our dedicated private dining and events boat—an adaptable,
light-filled barge framed by water and skyline. Host a single feasting table or
configure for canapés, strategy offsites, wedding lunches or press dinners; the
space comfortably seats up to 30 guests and transforms from daylight clarity to candlelit glow as dusk falls.

Event logistics are beautifully simple: our team can arrange everything from relaxed
lunch feasts to five-course menus and all of your tablescaping. Pre-drinks on deck, offers an editorial backdrop that photographs effortlessly. With superb transport links and supplier-friendly access, this is a city-smart canvas for brands, hosts and modern celebrations, crafted to feel personal, never generic.

It’s the kind of venue that makes a 30-person dinner feel like a headline moment.

London’s floating stays with the Boathouse: Paddington West

Moored on Merchant Square’s Floating Pocket Park, our flagship hotel boat feels like a private oasis in Zone 1. It’s literally just steps aways from Little Venice, Notting Hill and Marylebone, yet blissfully calm once you’re on board. The design is
contemporary and cleverly detailed: timber textures, soft lighting, a spacious lounge and a private rooftop for golden-hour drinks over the water.

Inside, you’ll find a serene bedroom, an elegant bathroom with a beautiful roll top bath and thoughtful touches throughout. Morning coffee on deck, sunset apéritifs, then a lanternlit evening with the city quietly gliding past—that’s the rhythm of a stay here.

With Paddington Station minutes away, the boat works as a romantic escape, a stylish base for shopping and galleries, or a design-led bolthole for creatives. Guests love the setting, an “oasis of calm”, and the feeling of discovering one of London’s most photogenic secrets, anchored amid cafés, restaurants and canal walks.

It’s boutique hotel with a waterside soul: intimate, polished, memorable.
