    A unique stay at a well-equipped houseboat! I enjoyed my one night stay from the curated playlist to the birdwatching. I would recommend taking your binoculars with you, as there are plenty of different type of birds around. The boat is located in...

HOTEL AM SPORTPARK, ABT. Lore
The Lore is our second boat in the Duisburg Marina and is equipped for 4 people. The Lore has a double bed and a bunk bed as well as a bathroom, a full kitchen, a living room, a small balcony and a large terrace with a gas grill. The houseboat is comfortably and warmly furnished and of course has internet access and an LED TV with DVBT-2 for you. When you have breakfast in the morning you can look out of the large windows and watch the geese, ducks, herons and boobies. In the evening you can watch the sunset over the Duisburg skyline from the roof terrace while barbecuing.
Our family has been hoteliers in Duisburg since 1974 and we have been running the hotel for 10 years in the second generation. We have already renovated the hotel, placing a lot of value on individuality and designing each room differently. In 2019, the Rhein Yacht Lexa was added, a 17 meter long luxury yacht that is also located in the Port of Duisburg and is rented out by us. In 2022 we then bought the lorry in order to be able to offer something else again. We hope that you will like the lore as much as we do.
The Lore is located in Duisburg's inner harbor and is therefore only 5 minutes away from the center of Duisburg. The nearest grocery store is 250 meters away and restaurants, bars and pubs are 500 meters away around the inner harbour.
