Lovely one night stay. A quirky alternative to staying in a traditional hotel and at a great price for the standard of accommodation. A warm friendly welcome at check in. The room was beautifully furnished in traditional ships style with a comfy large bed. Breakfast was very tasty and plentiful served in the ships bar. Situated on the water at Leith with shops, cafes and restaurants on the doorstep yet a short taxi ride into the centre. A fantastic short stay.

From embarking to disembarking it was 100% amazing as were all the staff.
Friendly welcome, amazing room (my only issue was the noise the hummidifer was making but on our second night it had been taken out the room) great bar staff & drinks sitting on the deck, tasty & plenty choice with good times for breakfast & just nothing was out of place or an issue for the staff. I didn’t expect the Ocean Mist to hold so much history & the staff were happy to answer questions. Would love to go back & upgrade the room. What a weekend on board this amazing boat.

What a wonderful experience! Staying on the Ocean Mist was a truly memorable experience. I loved all the little quirks of the ship and the bar was amazing. Having breakfast outside on the top deck this morning was fabulous! Bed was comfy and the bathroom was modern and beautifully appointed. Everyone on the staff was so lovely too. I’ll be back!
