Wonderful unique and historic property. Has all the modern conveniences one would expect of a luxury hotel (with the exception of a television- which I did not miss). Great location to explore Leith.

We came to Edinburgh to celebrate a special birthday and thought it would be fun to have a unique experience. The Ocean Mist certainly lived up to that label, offering a very high standard of accommodation and service on a recently totally refurbished boat on the River Leith. From the moment we stepped on the boat our experience was extremely positive. Every member of the crew we encountered was extremely friendly and helpful. We had a room on one of the upper decks which offered a very high standard of accommodation. A great amount of thought had been put into the refurbishment of the boat resulting in a very high standard of decor with a nautical theme. The staff had offered to decorate the room for my partners birthday which was a lovely touch. Most importantly the room was extremely clean. In addition to the guest rooms the boat boasted two outdoor seating areas on the upper decks one of which was attached to a bar/breakfast room. This offered guests the choice of an inside or outside seat depending on the weather. Breakfast was of a continental nature as the boat does not have cooking facilities onboard but was perfectly adequate. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Ocean Mist and would definitely stay there again.

All aboard for an elegant place to stay.
Our stay was a weekend away and Ocean Mist didn’t disappoint.We were warmly welcomed by Brian on reception -reception was manned 24/7 which isn’t always the case -and he explained everything we needed to know and said if we wanted anything to just let him know.Although our room was a little on the small side -it was really well equipped and had everything we needed and we didn’t find its size a problem.All the staff were extremely friendly and helpful and our continental style breakfast was served in the bar area which had fantastic views. We will definitely be back to visit and Leith has plenty going on to keep you entertained.

Breakfast continetal buffet style excellent shame yhe facilties for cooked breakfast not available would be 5* apart for the damp musty smell in the room and parts of boat but i suppose your on a boat on the river.

I can't say enough good things about this place. From the moment we checked in, Daniel and the other crew made us feel at home. They went above and beyond to be kind. The room was fantastic, the bed was comfortable, the breakfast was my favorite part of the day, right up there with relaxing in the lounge in the evening. When I come back to Edinburgh, this is the only place I'll stay. Thank you to everyone there for making our trip amazing.

From stepping on board the crew were amazing, they treat you like royalty and it’s like stepping back in time and absorbing a slice of history. Our room ‘The Steering Flat’ was fantastic and quirky. The bed was mega comfortable and the en-suite very plush with a wonderful shower. The bar is tremendous and the cocktails sublime. The breakfast is continental but the choice is vast so don’t let that fool you. The surrounding area is crammed by lovely restaurants and pubs and the general atmosphere is friendly and vibrant. We had a ball and definitely didn’t want to leave.

We LOVED our stay at The Ocean Mist. All of the staff were extremely nice and helpful. Breakfast was simple but very well done. Its a ship.....so expect smaller hallways and such but that shouldn't deter anyone from this fantastic experience.

What a different type of accommodation, very intermit with only 17 cabins. Was relaxing with a reading/ games room up on the top deck as well as a well stocked bar and knowledge staff. Our room being one of the cheaper ones was a bit cramped, in that I couldn’t open my bag fully and lie it on floor. Bathroom had plenty of room with great body wash etc. I get seasick but as this ship is attached to wharf there is no movement loved it would stay again.

We couldn't get over how cute this was! We only had one night there and would have wanted a larger room for a longer stay, but it was perfect for what we needed. The staff was very helpful and the bartender was very good at his job, as well as being an interesting person to talk to. Would definitely go back!
