Boat Hotel de Barge

Клопы повсюду. Так что будьте осторожны, если останетесь здесь. Номера не чистые. Они очень пыльные. В сочетании с бедбургами... Спал я не очень хорошо. Также нет кондиционера. Очень тепло. Только завтрак был хорош.

Hotel is not particularly clean , boat is clearly old and hotel not had any money invested for a long time . Restaurant didn’t open , breakfast expensive and limited. The worst though was Bed bugs , I was bitten literally hundreds of times. Had every thing from the small lave to the fully grown dark red ones running over the beds,I have never experienced the effects of BED BUG bites but it is dreadful . Imagine mosquitos and x by 10 , huge swellings that itch non stop but only show some days after, by which time you are home and you’ve brought them home in your luggage, this hotel has had bedbug complaints dating back to 2019 ! They cannot be exterminated by chemicals ,

I stayed here with 3 friends and had a great experience. Very friendly and courteous staff. Very clean and something a little different. Excellent breakfasts. One of the staff, Emily was very kind and took the time to explain many aspects of life in Belgium. I can highly recommend this hotel.

A beautiful barge and a comfortable and welcoming hotel. The only reason I have given 4 stars instead of 5 is because the restaurant (which has amazing reviews) was closed, but they did tell us in advance. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful and the hotel is in an ideal location about a 10 minute walk from the station and about a 20 minute walk into the town centre - all on the flat too!

Agree with other reviews it is a quirky place and we had an excellent stay. Relaxing and quiet and lovely watching the big barges sail by from your bedroom window. Not particularly clean. I don't think they actual pay much attention to this as the wardrobes were covered in dust and lots of fluff under the bed. My one big concern was their charging policy. (And there a lot of reviews about this on ***********) and I wish I had taken heed. They take full payment before your arrival and then charge you again on checkout. It has been a nightmare trying to get this extra payment refunded. They now say the payment has been released manually but still no refund into my account. Now they say they can't help any further and I need to contact my bank, so I have had to now register a claim with my credit card company. So, I would love to stay again, and it is a lovely place and nice stroll along the canal into central Bruge however I stayed for two nights 19th September and still have not been refunded the extra payment. This has put me off and I wish I had taken heed of the other warnings on ***********. It has really spoiled the experience of staying in this lovely barge hotel. The owners need to address this as lots of reviews are commenting on it and they are obviously taking no notice for some reason.

Lovely position on the canal and unusual as you’d imagine, with nautical themes and surroundings. Breakfast was good, but the room was more than a bit tired and not especially clean. Bed and pillows left a lot to be desired. Parking was ok in the surrounding area and the location was quiet as away from the main town about 20 minutes walk.
