Nice host. Relaxing atmosphere.

“Very pleasant stay”

Original experience, very clean and pleasant stay, kind owner

“Excellent place, slightly outside the tourist crowds.”

Absolutely everything was great. Didn’t expect we can get so much space and facilities on a boat.

“this is not just a place to sleep, it's a whole experience.”

I spent a week travelling through France and Belgium through various cities, and this accommodation was the highlight of my holiday in terms of character and a good night's sleep. It's little details, like looking out of the porthole window in the main bedroom, and discovering a tiny miniature boat figure (purely for decorative purposes), or the sailor knot examples with QR codes next to each one so you could find out more about them. I loved having access to all the speciality teas, a teapot (it is SO annoying in many hotels to have small cups which you constantly have to refill), and the kettle was even filled for me on arrival ready to be used. The double bed mattress was comfortable and I was grateful for the extra quilt option when I went to sleep. A good location (very quiet) within walking distance of lots to see and enjoy in Ghent. I was able to visit several museums easily without needing to get a bus.

“Lovely stay with friendly host”

Place was fab! Spacious, clean and so quirky! Really lovely place and host was very welcoming

It was a unique opportunity to stay in a boat! There was a lot of space (2 bedrooms, and also a bathtub). It's located in a non-touristy, authentic and quiet area of Ghent, which is about 30 min walking distance away from the train station and the city centre.

“Great!😊”

It was lovely to stay on a boat. Breakfast was fantastic and Bart was very helpful. (Hope your ankle is okay!). A bit out of town but there is a tram stop close by and it was rather nice to enjoy the peace and lovely cat 🐱 x

This hotel is definitely unlike any other. An old barge converted into a hotel is a real treat; the stay and the location are well worth the price. A very nice and friendly host. The bathrooms and kitchen are well-equipped. The kitchen has everything you need, including a generous supply of coffee, tea, and sugar (a big plus). The bathroom has a wide selection of toiletries. Another plus is the parking space in the underground garage across from the boat (about a 5-minute walk). Overall, the place has a few drawbacks, but it also has a wonderful soul.

“A Unique and Rewarding Stay”

The host, Bart, was an awesome guy: super helpful, friendly, and accommodating. The place itself was really unique and cool, and a ton of care clearly went into it.

“Couples visit to Gent”

Unique to stay on houseboat for couple of nights. More spacious than at first glance Great to have shower room and separate bathroom. Fabulous breakfast produced by Bart and his hens and one day weather cooperated and we had breakfast and evening drinks sitting on deck. About 25 mins walk to edge of city centre along canal. Parking a couple of minutes away with clear instructions

The boat was fine, decent facilities on baord. The host was nice.

“Thanks a lot for wonderful experience!”

Amazing atmosphere!!! Everything is thought out to the smallest detail! All our family really enjoyed in this place - comfortable but so unusual! Wonderful experience! Funny chickens and rooster 😊

Host was great and breakfast was lovely. Even prepared a "to go" breakfast for my early wake up at 5am. Thank you

“Really great place to stay in Ghent”

Really novel experience to stay on a houseboat. It was very comfortable and our son LOVED the toys!!

“My family enjoyed, especially the little one - couldn’t get enough of the toys”

Super cool & unique themed accomodation

More comfortable and cozy and warm that I would expect from a boat. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in Ghent, especially with a child (lot of toys).

“Interesting and worthwhile location”

Quirky, attractive. Good to have a kitchenette. Helpful owner. I wasn’t feeling well so was able to eat on board

“Wanna be a pirate captain?”

Nice atmosphere, good location, comfy bed and a kind host.

“Loved our stay”

This was a bit of a treat for us. The idea of staying on a boat was hard to pass up. We loved our stay. Bart, our host, looked after us very well. The accommodations are surprisingly spacious for a canal boat - ample for us as a couple, with rooms to spare if you have children. Bathrooms (yes plural) were great. Breakfast was really laid on, more than we could eat and there's basic refreshments in the kitchen with a very reasonably priced mini-bar in the fridge. Breakfast on the deck if the weather permits. Bed was super comfortable and the area was quiet. Walk of about 30 mins into town or tram stop only 500m away.
