Exquisite all-around experience! Velvet Morning is moored a short walk from the major transit point Paddington Station, ideal for those going to/from Heathrow, yet in a quiet and leafy residential area and in a lovely stretch of the Regent's Canal where swans regularly cruise by. She's spacious and beautifully appointed with much care put into the refurbishing of this more than 100 year old craft. A romantic and unique treat to experience boat life for those willing to put up with a cassette toilet and water pump and a little less headroom than usual. We loved it and would leap to stay here again. Check-in, wifi, and response time all outstanding. Plus Sam made some wonderful recommendations of local spots for dinner (Summerhouse), lunch (Waterway) and breakfast (Clifton Nurseries), and went the extra mile with us when scheduling. We very much hope to return!
