The transportation is very expensive

They have a ship tour which tell us about the history of the ship and and can see the engine room. Breakfast half buffer half ala carte, the taste is very good.

Low ceiling, blurred windows and inaccessible to most places

Quaint and historical

While we understand that the property is very new I think it would be much more profitable for them to have water activities given the wonderful location.

It was unique and interesting way of preserving a relic from the past.

Breakfast was absolutely delicious. Staff was so wonderful: kind, helpful, welcoming and always smiling. I would not hesitate to return there if I were ever lucky enough to return!

The spa facility was unfortunately under renovation. There's also not a lot of options around for grocery shopping.

It was a unique experience and the ship hotel was very impressive.. Conveniently located next to the ferry terminal and easy to book activities within Bintan Island.

The balcony is very sweet and make me feel very peaceful. Sea view is fantastic. Staff is very kind. The room is unique, tall people need to be careful to hit the ceiling if raise hand but it was a cruise before so understand. I would definitely come back again when more facilities open in the future. Like the vibe and also the theme of this hotel.

The food is very bad, and also the breakfast. This is even a bigger problem as the hotel is isolated from the island more crowded areas. So, you need to pay a 30USD each time you want to go somewhere. They should have put in place a regular shuttle to Langoi Bay.

The hotel is original and the rooms are clean. A nice swimming pull with a sea view. The people are also very nice and helpful.

Journey was quite far away from central area

Facilities was not as much as we know

The food, although tasty, could have benefited from higher quality and a more extensive menu selection to cater to a wider range of palates. Similarly, the breakfast options, though satisfactory, were somewhat limited and could be expanded to offer a more fulfilling start to the day. Despite these points, dining with a view of the sea was an absolute delight, adding a special touch to the meals and enhancing the overall culinary experience.

Our stay at the Doulos Phos The Ship Hotel was nothing short of remarkable. Nestled in a unique location, this hotel offers an unparalleled experience that blends nautical charm with luxurious comfort. The fact that it holds a place in the Guinness Book of Records adds an extraordinary touch to the stay, making it not just a hotel visit but a part of history. The cabins are beautifully appointed, combining the quaint essence of ship life with modern amenities, ensuring a comfortable and memorable stay. However, what truly sets Doulos Phos apart is its crew. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to ensure guests feel welcomed and valued. Their attention to detail and genuine care enhance the overall experience, making it a must-visit destination for those seeking a blend of history, luxury, and warm hospitality.

No swimming beach on site.

Unique concept, beautiful sunsets, staff were very friendly. Very close to ferry terminal

As it is located far from outdoor activities or city centre, would be good to have more facilities, for example outdoor activities like rock climbing flying fox, jet ski, etc.

Comfortable, clean

Living in a hotel / ship / museum was a new experience for us! We also had the pleasure to participate to the ship’s heritage tour and find out about its history and the long journey to its now permanent home in Bintan, meeting also Mr Eric Saw, the man behind this ambitious project. Definetly a worth while experience that made our stay in Bintan a very memorable one! It is also a very relaxing location… also the infinity pool is super nice and the staff is super friendly and ready to help out.

the location and the slow services

I was expecting more options in the breakfast menu

Stayed in October 2023

For the purpose I went for, it was great. However, there are not many facilities and activities. Pool bar was not open but not a big issue as you can order from the restaurant and they serve you at the pool.

The number one thing about this place is the people. The staff here are very friendly, warm and hospitable. Nothing was ever too difficult for them. They always did their best to help. Next was the pool. Amazing view and great infinity pool. The room was comfortable and spacious. Had an amazing trip. The location is next to ferry terminal so very easy to get there. Breakfast buffet was great. So much variety. I liked the tour they gave about the property. Very great history about this ship.

It was a wonderful experience. The cabin was clean and was tastefull and gave a ships experience. The staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast and diner were of good quality and the staff made us feel special, and went out of their way to see to it that we had a great time. The ship has a long history and is well presevered. The fact you can still see the engineroom and walk down the tunnelshaft made it special. When walking the deck past the life boats and standing on the bow gives it a real shipsfeeling. The swimming pool next to the ocean adds to the experience, especially at sunset. We are happy we got to visit the Doulos Phos and reocmmend this unique experience.
