We are very happy to introduce to you the latest addition to our Legendary Services: the Little Queen Elizabeth. Our very own saloon boat dates back to 1915 and is hence a floating monument. The boat has been entirely restored and is now equipped with all the latest equipment. She has her own jetty right in front of the hotel and sets sail every morning at 10.00 for a one hour cruise.
You can also rent the Little Queen Elizabeth for private boat tours and enjoy the delicacies of Restaurant Bridges on the water!
