to get started.

This place was great. Staff was top notch, location was great, super clean.

Steven, United States of America

The location of Hotel de Barge is awesome, just outside the city center on a peaceful canal. With 10-15min walk to the city center through a beautiful park. We had a riverside room which was awesome! Being able to wake up, open window and see the river is such a unique experience. We were traveling with a dog and they prepared a little bowl and poo bags for him - really thoughtful!

Lan, Slovenia

The nice boat theme! Furthermore the breakfast was great.

Ron, Netherlands

Loved the check in with the owner. The breakfast is superb, and the decoration was really cosy. Overall it was a very nice experience is staying in a boat.

Marta, Spain

I liked that it was on the water and away from craziness of tourists.

Michelle, United States of America

What a surprise. We were assigned to the Officers' Quarters that ran across the back of the barge. Lots of windows and light. A reasonable walk through a park got us to "old town". Great selection for breakfast.

Michael, United States of America

An unusual and fun place to stay. It was nice to have the breakfast included. An easy, short walk from the train station. Also, a free shuttle into town ! Kevin, on the desk in the evening is Great!!

Stephanie, United States of America

A bit quirky in a good way. Great breakfast. Bit different. Was a nice room/experience.

Peter, United Kingdom

Loved the atmosphere of being on a boat. Breakfast was great. Chocolate around was a big plus. Friendly staff. Quiet and relaxing.

Lori, Germany

Great way to enjoy the town either by public transportation or car (not so drastic). Ideal to enjoy a night on a real boat. Dinner was delicious on board. Location is 5 minutes from the old town - use parking spots next to the main square.

Coffee wasn't replaced in our room and the cups were left on the sides. Two single beds / single duvets - prefer a double bed in a double room Distance to the centre was 15 / 20 minutes. The walk to the centre is beautiful, but when we come back to bruges, we'll probably stay more central. (taxis pretty much non-existent)
Quirky hotel, glad we stayed here. We were in room 6, downstairs and at the end, so had a nice view of the canal. waking up to the ducks was nice
