Reviews of Les Chambres des Barques

Kind regards, Andrew

The location was fantastic and it was great value.

Great location near the canal, parking nearby, large room, comfortable bed and decent shower, quiet at night.

The decor was very much in need of a refresh - quirky but very tired decoration and furniture.

Good value and great location

Code to enter unreliable

The house is in a very central location in Narbonne: 3 minutes to the covered market, less than a minute to the canal and 15 minutes walk to the train station. The communal kitchen was a bonus - it is spacious and well equipped. There are several small Carrefour Express supermarkets close by so it was easy to cook.

The street noise was noticeable even with the windows shut but it was market day so this could have been more pronounced than on other days.

Very central property and excellent recommendations made by host. We really enjoyed our stay in Narbonne!

It was a bit run down, but it matched the vibe of the town in a positive way. We are not too picky, so we were overall pleased with the room.

Spacious room

Had to phone up host to get admission to property.

Great communication with Craig. Beautiful old fashioned French accommodation .Excellent location next to the market.

It was good value for money and everything was comfortable enough.

The terrace is not very pleasant to sit out in, and is completely blocked in with no view. It was quite noisy from the street and there was a very loud fight break out around 1am. Obviously not the fault of the establishment but I didn't feel particularly comfortable as a lone female.

Perfect location right by the canal, but still not very loud. Self check-in made arrival easy, and we didn't have to stress about arrival time.

Beds not super comfy.

Location, historical building

Super central stay in Narbonne. Easy self check-in. Spacious room and free tea and water kettle in the room.

Some cracks here and there in the room.

Location and price unmatched. Our rooms were huge, clean and comfortable and we even had a terrace in one room. Access to a large, well equipped kitchen downstairs. Perfect start to our holiday in the region.

We loved the kitchen. Very well equipped an roomy.

Jacuzzi did not work, pictures are misleading. Ground floor room was a bit to dark an a bit to cold for us at the end of winter. Pictures on booking did not come from our room: Cold tile floor with a big step in the middle of the room.

Very charming property, and spacious. It's walkable to the canal, the Cathedral, Les Halles, restaurants (including Les Grandes Buffets), and the train station. Shared kitchen facilities are convenient! Layout of the 2 bedroom suite has a toilet in the entry hall, sink in the double bedroom, and a shower & tub in a side area.

The location, character, facilities and value. Love the complete quirkiness of this property. A1 host 👍

Perfect location in the centre yet quiet. Very large room with old charm, high ceiling. Recently redone bathroom. Comfy bed. Checking was easy with the code. Recommended

Good location

Tricky to access

Easy to access. Instructions were in multiple languages.

I didn't know which room to go to when I arrived. I stayed in the first room as it had the keys in the door. I found out later which room I was assigned when going out for dinner. By that time it was too late to change rooms. It could be avoided by sending a message in the morning which room is assigned.

The location was very central, close to the central square and canal through town. I was only there one night, so didn't experience that much. The kitchen set up was very nice, large, could easily prepare a meal there if you were staying longer. There was large refrigerator to store items and access to laundry facilities too, I believe. The room was quite large and had a small balcony off of it which I didn't expect. I was able to easily walk to a grocery store and a yummy bakery. Also, while a sort of long-ish walk with a large bag you could walk to the train and bus stations from this location.

I really didn't have any issues. All the communication was via the app and never actually had to deal with anyone in person which was easy, but as a solo traveler sometimes it's nice to see/speak to someone in person. But really it was perfectly fine as I was just there for one night en route to another place.
