Do not book this hotel
The hotel cancelled our reservation 2 days before we were due to arrive, this caused us a lot of inconvenience as we had to find somewhere else to stay. We had paid Fortuna Boat Hotel in full for our reservation. Despite this, neither Fortuna Boat or Hotels.com will refund the money we have paid.

Nice position. Lovely views along river and short pleasant walk to Parliament building. I tried this boat as a quirky alternative to hotel. Didn’t work for me. The rooms are very small hardly room to move around at all. The worst thing for me was total lack of facilities. No bar No food or snacks available. No lounge or seating area to chill out. Fully accept I visited in winter and it might feel different in summer when there would be opportunity to sit out on roof terrace. I recommend if you do want to try this out go for superior room with river view and check before you travel to confirm they have allocated you the room you paid for.

Unique and cute.
Hotel is in an out if the way location but on the water with a view of the Island and just a few minutes walk from the #2 tram stop. Rooms are small, as to be expected in a boat, but clean with everything you need. Staff was very helpful in arranging airport transfer at a set price of 38 Euros for when we left.

The shower is literally in the toilet. I say shower but it’s not a shower in my eyes (it’s actually just a hose attached to the wall aimed at your chest, You can’t move the height of the hose making it a nightmare to wash my hair. Also very dangerous slippy floor as the floor has no shower mat or screen to stop the water pooling around the toilet.

Clean, quiet and comfortable. Great to be on the River Danube with lovely views. No tea making facilities available all the time. Restaurant area dated. Limited hot meal menu, maybe due to it being late September and not high season.

Rim was more basic than I initially expected the air con was on when I arrived so it was nice and chilled considering the 29 degrees outside. The TV was set up properly or not working as every channel was a deep red colour. Otherwise a adequate room with passable decor. The toilet / wet room was very cubical like so you could’ve showered whilst on the toilet. But was adequate for what I needed. The plug for the sink was missing but got around that with a bit of tissue. Staff were very welcoming and helpful I paid extra for the breakfast which consisted of 3 types danish, the hit food was a dodgy looking stumbled eggs which was oily and two types of sausage a frankfurter and a spicier small sausage. Nothing else. So I’d say you’d better look in town for a breakfast. It’s opposite Margret island so little way from the centre of town where I stayed before so if you want a shop you have to walk about 10mins across the dual carriage way. But it was perfect if you just want a quick stop off for the odd night
