Expert reviews
“Moored next to the Cité de la Mode et du Design exhibition center (and night life haven), the streamlined and chic 58-room Off Paris Seine is a floating hotel with a popular bar-restaurant.”
Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Paris on the Seine.
“There’s no forgetting you’re in Paris at this groundbreaking hotel afloat a stylish boat on the River Seine. Designer rooms are a nod to Le Corbusier, while the fashionable lounge-bar with dipping pool begs guests to switch off and relax in one of the city’s loveliest new lifestyle spaces.”

Off Paris Seine, Paris is a unique, floating four-star hotel and food bar on the Seine river in Paris, just a stone’s throw distance from the Latin Quarter, Marais, Notre Dame, and the Austerlitz and Lyon stations. The quickly transforming surroundings offer an eclectic mix of modern and traditional styles.
This unique and first-of-its-kind hotel provides guests with rooms with views of the Seine river’s Right and Left Bank. Guests can take pleasure in an astonishing glance of life on the Seine’s banks as well as the famous Gare d’Austerlitz train station. Guests can stroll along Seine’s banks and arrive in the center of the city where they can explore Notre-Dame de Paris, the Eiffel Tower, and other famous landmarks.
Off Paris Seine’s two Horizon suites offer panoramic views of the Seine and are ideal for viewing Paris in an entirely different light. The OFF bar and restaurant provides guests with a broad array of drinks and tapas platters
The restaurant prepares delicious breakfast for guests on weekdays, while guests can relish an exquisite brunch on weekends. The bar is also the ideal spot for a weekend party with live music by musicians on Fridays (Live Fridays) and DJ sets on Saturdays (Saturday Fever).
In June, Green River Cruises invites the guests of Off Paris Seine guests to cruise them to the Eiffel Tower. Guests can also make themselves comfortable at the boat and order drinks and refreshments during the trip to the iconic landmark of France.

Very comfortable, very friendly and helpful staff
The only bad thing was that the restaurant and bar are not open on a Monday

Wonderful location, staff, and room condition!
Staffs are super friendly and helpful. Coffee is on the house if you're not interested in getting the whole breakfast. Room is pretty clean and right on La Seine. Walkable distances to many attractions, including The Place of Bastille, Paris High Line, the botanical garden, and even Notre Dame de Paris shall you wish.
I would highly recommend that the window should be designed to be prevented from being looked at from outside. The pedestrians on the bridge can still look into the rooms if they want when the curtain is not up.

Very different from normal hotels but we enjoyed it
It was on the water and special
Background noise from the trains could be very noisy if you open your window (That we prefer) But if you close the window it is fine

Pleasant stay with quick,friendly service and thoughtful details that made for a carefree experience
The booking process was very smooth. After making the reservation, we had a few questions which we asked via chat. These were answered quickly and kindly. During our stay, we needed a few extra items, such as an iron and ironing board. Upon request, the staff brought them to our room right away. Although we had one rainy morning, the staff immediately offered us an umbrella. These may seem like small details, but they truly make a stay more enjoyable. It’s great to feel so well taken care of.

A different place to stay!
Great location next to big metro station. Hotel is unique, modern and nicely decorated.
Noisy area at times - was a party boat going on until 4am one night. They do provide ear plugs and windows are good at sound proofing though!

When I open the window, the Seine River is right in front of me. Everything is perfect.
There's nothing particularly bad about it.

Something different
Nice very tidy room with a great view over the river, I had an issue with the toilet and they immediately changed my room
The shower head kept sliding down the pole

Unique, clean, tidy, staff friendly and would defintely go back!!
Loved the location and type of property. We had no idea it was on a barge though :) more our fault but as soon as we realised we were super excited. Stunning and well looked after. Rooms very modern and facilities were very good. Shower was really good. You have to have a good shower! Great you can chromecast from your phone to watch prime/ Netflix on the tele.towels fresh everyday and bedlinen all clean. Loved the view from bar/pool area in to la Seine. Staff were all super friendly and helpful. We checked out early 6am ish and had no issues finding someone. I was worried the boat would be rocking but hardly felt nothing and really cool to open your curtains and there just be water outside!!
The hotel must be very new, which is lovely which made little things like stains on the middle wall way carpet down the barge more noticeable especially on cream carpet. We were in room 31, and arrived at night and when we got to the room door it was so dark in the corridor and couldn’t see the room number. Might be worth just putting a light to light up door number like the other rooms.

After 5 days on water, i was kind of moving even on the steady ground 😊
Everything was pleasant. It was really nice to stay in a quiet place in Paris, and not be surrounded by buildings
It was all good, nothing to add

“Stuck” in Paris for 4 days turned out to be extraordinary.
Breakfast was excellent, albeit a bit expensive.
We liked everything. We stay here every time we come to Paris. Would only love to see the barge relocate in future to test out future locations along river, perhaps a bit closer to the core. But it was excellent.

Good experience in Paris
It is the unique hotel. the chamber was not shaking, very comfortable. And stuff is friendly and kindly. The bar restaurant was a little shaking. it was good for new experience.
The chamber was a little small. Especially, the shower room is too narrow. Therefore, I felt it was a little expensive.

Everything is perfect! The only negative was that the room was not heated by the heating system and was cold.

T'was a significant birthday celebration and your hotel was the perfect Paris venue. Thank you.
As serious boat owners we were delighted with the view of the Seine and all the commercial boat activity. The location of the hotel is also perfect for public transportation and the whole experience was wonderful. Thank you.
We had trouble knowing where to park to unload our luggage when we were about to check in. We phoned the reception and was given a clearer description. All was well.

Loved it. Except for the woman sneaking into our room.
Breakfast was great. Staff was superb.
Not much . The party barge across the river with strobe lights and bass thumping until 6:00am Best to stay Sun-Thursday. Love this location so much.

Good experience
The bar was very nice and the fact that the room was on the river side
Room cleaning was not as thorough as expected. And you could hear all the noise from the room specifically doors opening and closing

Wonderful experience for a birthday week celebration.
This was so unique! A completely memorable experience. And so convenient! Easy to get to from CDG. And so easy to navigate the city.
Only 1 thing - the HVAC. Weather was all over the board during our stay. And we could not get the temp to regulate in the room (one of the suites on the end). So it was either very cold (on cold mornings) or very warm (on warm afternooons).

Lovely hotel worth the money
It was something different than a regular hotel just because it’s a boat on water and it has some lovely views
Little bit too cramped but it was awesome

Great hip hotel on the river Seine
Stayed at Off Paris Seine for an extended weekend. Location is perfect, a stroll from Gare d’Austerlitz so by metro you’re in the busy city center in no time. Jardin des Plantes is around the corner and if you excercise, don’t forget to bring your trainers to have a run along the Seine or swimsuit to have a swim at the piscine municipal Josephine Baker among the locals. The staff of the hotel is super friendly and helpful, we had some issues with the safe in the room and the issue was solved immediately. In the evening we wanted to have a drink at the bar but unfortunately the bar was closed for a private event and the guy from the reception got us drinks on the house. The interior of the hotel was clean and stylish and there was a nice and small photo exhibition in the common room. The hotel room was clean, small and efficiently furnished (with a separate toilet from the shower) and the windows of the room could be opened for fresh air. We didn’t make use of any breakfast/lunch at the hotel, nor made use of the hotel pool. There was a functional safe and fridge in the room. I highly recommend this hotel.
It can be quite noisy in the surroundings of the hotel since the trains cross the bridge next to the hotel and there are clubs on the boats on the other side of the river with lots of music and voices, so the complimentary earplugs in the room are not a luxury. But with earplugs in and the windows closed during the night any noise was limited (my teenage kids in the next room didn’t hear anything and didn’t use any earplugs).

Ana amazing experience in a unique hotel
Beautiful view of the seine, in an amazing central location. Really helpful staff and a great experience.
The room is a little cramped but understanable as space is limited on a boat.

Cool concept with nice amenities in a great, accessible location
The decor, view, the pool being open for a midnight swim, and the location across the street from Austerlitz Station.
The room was a little bit small for my tastes, but still rather enjoyable.

It was hard communicating with the front desk from the Room.

All in all it was a good stay and most of the staff were really attentive
A very unique property
The breakfast was quite average. The eggs are left out for you to cook yourself which I tried after having broken a raw egg first as I thought they were cooked eggs. The second egg didn’t cook so I had a second raw egg on my plate. There were three staff standing around and no one offered assistance.

Beautiful hotel, great staff, wonderful stay
We loved everything! We came just three days after our wedding so this was our honeymoon - the staff had decorated the room and we felt extremely welcome from the moment we arrived! They were so helpful the whole time. We had a beautiful and very comfortable room overlooking Seine. Great location right next to train station and it’s so easy to go all around. There are toiletries and I must say the smell of the shower gel is something else!😍 We would stay there again!
Nothing to dislike!

A gem of a hotel. Good location, excellent restaurant, unexpected facilities such as swimming pool. Rooms small but adequate, staff very welcoming. I'll go back!
Rooms are small but with all necessary facilities.

A barge on the river with the waiting pool heated provides a respite from a busy city.
The pool with cocktail bar service poolside!
The location is a bit far on foot, but only across the street from Gare Austerlitz.
