Rooms

Amenities

The Ship Inn offers free parking on weekends, a rare perk in central London. Guests have access to a quiet garden area for relaxation. Bathrobes and slippers are provided in each room for shared bathroom use.

Rooms

The hotel has only three rooms, allowing for personalized guest service. Each room includes a flat-screen TV and a continental breakfast delivered to the room. Shared bathroom facilities come with a hairdryer and complementary toiletries.

Location

The pub is a three-minute walk from the River Thames, with easy access to sightseeing river paths. Island Gardens DLR station is six minutes away, providing direct connections to Canary Wharf. The O2 Arena in Greenwich is a 14-minute drive from the hotel.

Dining

The Ship Inn serves stone baked pizzas made on site, along with real ales, craft beers, wine and cocktails. The pub menu includes specialized local food offerings not found in chain hotels. In-room continental breakfast is provided each morning.

Pub & Garden Experience

The Victorian pub maintains a lively atmosphere with friendly local clientele. A quiet garden area offers a contrast to the bar's energy. The limited number of rooms means guests receive attentive service from the same staff running the pub.

Highlights

Location: 3-min walk to the Thames, 6-min to DLR, 14-min drive to the O2 Arena

Parking: Free weekend parking in central London

Rooms: Only 3 rooms for personalized service

Dining: Stone baked pizzas, real ales, craft beers

Amenities: Bathrobes & slippers, in-room continental breakfast

Atmosphere: Victorian pub with quiet garden

“The Ship Inn, with its Victorian pub setting, presents a cozy alternative to London's larger hotels, especially for those visiting Canary Wharf and the O2 Arena. Its charm lies in blending accommodation with a lively local pub atmosphere, complemented by stone-baked pizzas and a wide drink selection, and easy access to the Thames. While some rooms share bathrooms and present minor drawbacks, the Inn distinguishes itself with a homely feel and weekend parking-elements often absent in bigger establishments.”
