Why Sunborn London is the Best Yacht Hotel
1. A Grand Entrance
Fit for Royalty
From the moment you arrive, Sunborn London captivates. The
entrance evokes the golden age of ocean liners, with a sweeping double
staircase, sparkling chandeliers, and a dimly lit golden glow that transports
you to a bygone era of glamour 127. Guests often compare it to stepping onto
the Titanic—minus the iceberg drama! The lobby’s opulent mahogany finishes,
mirrored ceilings, and nautical decor set the tone for a stay that’s equal
parts luxurious and whimsical.
