Stylish and comfortable, this barge provides an unusual solution to finding a charming base in Paris. It’s located right on the Seine, close to Place de la Concorde and Assemblée Nationale. From its position on the water, you’ll be able to admire views of the Eiffel Tower, which can be enjoyed inside as well as out on the two terraces. We love how much glass there is – this is a bright, welcoming home. It’s also equipped with everything you might need for a comfortable stay – we’re ready to pack our bags.

Local guide


About Louvre - Palais Royal

Where to begin with one of Paris's most majestic and central districts? This was the stomping ground of historic kings, and now its grand palaces and squares are home to museums, galleries, government offices, and luxury shopping. With no fewer than three Royal palaces, the attractions are plentiful in this neck of the woods. If checking out the Mona Lisa with throngs of tourists isn't your thing, we recommend exploring some of the area's quieter hidden gems. Colonnes de Burennes has a gorgeous secret square and Alain Ducasse's world-famous French restaurant 'Le Meurice' is just around the corner.
