Fine dining and charming cabins, all aboard a unique floating barge-hotel on the picturesque Bruges-Ghent canal, just 20 minutes' walk from the Market Square.
  • Sleeps: 1-2
  • Bedroom: 1
  • Bathrooms: Ensuite
  • Minimum stay: 1 night

Floating serenely on the shimmering Bruges-Ghent canal, Boat Hotel de Barge is the perfect sanctuary after a day of exploring the lively city.

You’ll find each charming cabin decorated in classic, clean-lined nautical style, boasting canal or garden views (upgrade to a superior room with a spa bath if you prefer a little extra luxury!)

After a sound night’s sleep, tuck in to a breakfast spread of fresh fruit, bread and pastries, to set you up for an enthralling day of taking in the sights and sounds of Bruges. The Market Square and the Belfry of Bruges are just 20 minutes’ walk away, so you won’t have far to go.

Later, sit back and relax on the barge terrace to savour the sunset over a glass of bubbles, before making your way to the on-board fine-dining restaurant, The Captain’s Table, for regional dishes at their most mouth-watering.
