“Nice comfortable bed and room but breakfast 20 euros for a self service , hot plated food , inc a glass of champagne! Bu”
Noisy plumbing had to be moved ! But I don’t think that I was treated fairly because the night I stayed I had no sleep! And too late to complain! So in the morning I did complain but it was an ordeal!

The Barge Hotel was different and lovely looking over the canal. My stay was during a heat wave and the cool breeze off the canal was appreciated.

“Great quirky hotel in a great location”
What a fabulous hotel. We booked the captains cabin at the back and we loved it. Very quirky. Quiet location. Easy 20 min bimble into the city centre . The honesty bar was a great touch and very reasonable price wise. Lovely outdoor seating area. The breakfast was delicious and really good value for money. The staff were all fantastic.
