Sunborn International is pioneering the development of exclusive accommodation in the form of super yacht hotels. Launching two new hotels in March 2014, Sunborn London will be operated by ISS Hotel Division London and Sunborn Gibraltar will operate under Sunborn International.
Symbol of wealth and exclusivity
Super yachts have become the world’s ultimate symbol of wealth and exclusivity and Sunborn’s unique concept combines the privacy of a super yacht with all the amenities of a luxury hotel. Sunborn has invested over €200 million in the two new super yacht hotels and both have been designed to the highest specification, offering exquisite accommodation, facilities and exceptional service.
Sunborn London
Will be located in the prestigious Royal Victoria docks, next to the ExCeL Exhibition Centre, London. Originally serving as Sunborn Princess at the renowned Naantali Spa in Finland, Sunborn London has undergone a complete refurbishment of the exterior and interiors and will be brought to London in time for its opening in March.
120 metres in length, Sunborn London will offer 138 spacious yacht bedrooms and suites over 5 floors with entertaining space, including a fine dining restaurant, bar, auditorium and conference rooms, state of the art gym and vast outside decks and private terraces.
The recent regeneration of East London and the Newham Borough makes this an ideal location for Sunborn London. The hotel will primarily attract corporate clients, with its close proximity to ExCeL, which alone expects to welcome four million visitors during 2014, London City Airport and Canary Wharf. However the hotel’s luxury accommodation and facilities will also provide the ideal base from which to enjoy the local attractions, including the O2, Greenwich and the Emirates Airline.
Commenting on the new Sunborn Yacht Hotels, Hans Niemi, owner, says:
“Our goal is to expand the Sunborn Yacht Hotel concept to well-known locations around the world. The new hotel in London, currently the world’s most important city – together with a dynamic Mediterranean location in Gibraltar, gives us a an important platform for the Sunborn brand and business concept, Our yacht hotels are hotel properties which deliver significant benefits”.
David Pegler, CEO ExCeL London commented:
“We are looking forward to the arrival of the Sunborn Yacht Hotel to ExCeL London to enhance our world class infrastructure and facilities. We are continually looking at ways to improve the experience for our visitors and this stunning hotel will increase the number of on-site hotel rooms to over 1600. Using the mooring for a floating hotel echoes the heritage of London’s Royal Dock. This latest development focuses on people and services, boosting job creation and transactions as the docks did in their heyday.”
