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.

The room is small but comfortable and modern.
Its location to the train station.
It’s unique location and something different.

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.

Fabulous
Service was excellent. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The concierge at night Yanis I believe it was, was so great. The experience at the hotel was unforgettable, I will definitely recommend it.
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 great pleasure to stay at this hotel at the start of our holiday.
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.

Wonderful stay
The boat !

This was one of the most unique and memorable places to stay. I can not fault anything at all.
The whole place was amazing. Very unique and a beautiful place to create memorable experiences. The rooms were bigger than I expected. The view was amazing to be right on the water, the staff were so kind, thoughtful and generous, the food in the restaurant was phenomenal. The staff were very accommodating and caring with my spouses health needs As you can tell. We loved it!
We loved everything.

Special concept
The concept. It is really something special to spend the night in the Paris Seine River. I liked the hotel crew, all very friendly and with fluent English.
Coffee machine not working but the problem was in 2 minutes solved by a friendly room maintenance responsible. Vegan breakfast not so clear but still enough for a amazing meal at the sunny restaurant in the Hotel. The crew was even instantly available to low the price of the breakfast in case of an unsatisfying meal.

Instagram worthy pool
Stunning property right near Gare d’Austerlitz and only a short walk from Gare de Lyon. Pool was small, but stunning and very clean - not open all the time.

Beautiful place.

I really enjoyed my stay on this boat hotel
Very nice location at the side of the river Seine. Smaller rooms due to the fact that it's a boat but this makes it extra special. Very nice restaurant with a small swimming pool in the middle.
Everything was very good but you sometimes felt a little bit the movements of the boat (very lightly) which is off course also part of the experience.
16 August 2024
Quirky little place on the river, a must try experience.
Excellent quirky, clean and comfortable. Very different experience being on the river but really beautifully executed with excellent high standards.
Slightly isolated but some may enjoy this, beer was very expensive.
14 August 2024
Great view at the sena River.
Like the poll and the Staff.
Didn’t like the pool close sometimes at the day and the check in is 4pm.
14 August 2024
Fabulous
Loved the view of the Seine.
Night staff weren’t so helpful.
13 August 2024
Wonderful staff, exceptional views, and an overall perfect experience.
The staff was exemplary, even if things were slightly strained due to the Olympic opening ceremony. Everyone was friendly and helpful and the restaurant was PERFECT. We enjoyed a fabulous dinner overlooking the Seine.
The pool is a little too small to be considered a true amenity, and its location in the middle of the restaurant makes it borderline unusable, but this is my single complaint.
12 August 2024
Fantastic hotel
Great location, very helpful and friendly staff. I would recommend staying here!
Everything was great
8 August 2024
Great hotel, value for money, location and style
Stylish, well designed, comfortable beds and pillows. Great location. Great view. The windows are soundproof
Nothing to complain. People coming to this hotel need to take in consideration that is a house boat (péniche) therefore there will be waving, boat noise, and other specificities. I was very pleased
8 August 2024
Perfect to live on the river.
Everything is good.

Lovely boat hotel on Seine, rooms very good with very good aircon
Very good location near station so great for the olympics
very small shallow pool
5 August 2024
Really amazing little hotel. Will definitely come back!
the bedroom was so beautifully designed. Compact but so well laid out. The bed was extremely comfortable and the view right outside the window was superb. There was a waiter there (can't remember his name) he saw we were unsure and reassured us by saying to my wife 'tell me everything'. He was amazing. He also served our drinks. The hotel was also so close to the Metro too!
Maybe some information about wifi. We forgot to ask. Also our room key kept failing so we had to keep coming up to reception to get it reprogrammed. We weren't really told about food and how it works or options available to us.

Beautiful hotel with amazing food
Beautiful view (river view), well designed rooms - very clean, modern and industrial look. Had brunch on Sunday and the quality of the food was incredible (best hotel breakfast I've ever had). Very nice to have a pool overlooking the river.
It was a little far out of the main city (Eiffel Tower etc) but next to a train station so not the end of the world. The toilets were eco-friendly vacuum toilets, which is great, but were quite loud when flushed (fine normally but middle-of-the-night trips weren't ideal).

Original, different, magical
Great concept, great views, great atmosphere, great entertainment, great staff, great architecture and decoration
The trains riding on the bridge at 80 mtrs every 5/10 min from the boat was super noisy killing its magic when there was no music
25 July 2024
Very pleasant and staff were amazing
Very unique
Small rooms and should have a stocked fridge for drinks.

Amazing staff, lovely location & really clean hotel
The friendly staff, super clean & just a really nice vibe. Perfect location! Wish we could have stayed longer
Not a single bad word to say, it’s probably one of my favourite trips :)

Fabulous
The staff were very friendly. Although the rooms were small they were very comfortable and we all slept well. The location was great. We liked the location for two reasons: it was easy walking distance to the Gare de Lyon, which is how we left Paris. And it was easy walking distance to the Batobus, the hop-on, hop-off boat up and down the Seine River. The view of the river is beautiful, although our view did have bright orange construction rope due to the set up for the Olympics.
Be warned that there is a metro train bridge just by the hotel - bring earplugs so you can sleep without it disturbing you. A train comes by every minute or two. The breakfast was a little pricey at 22 euros a person (even children) - it was a good breakfast, but that is a little steep. My kids really wanted to try out the little pool, but the pool is only open when the restaurant is not open....that's not very much. So we never got to jump in the pool. We were hoping for early check-in, but that was not available.

Great memory created
Special location!
Nice design
16 July 2024
Great location for Station. Looks amazing and staff very friendly
Location to station and quirkiness. Very modern.
Bar straight across from room and there was a party going on until midnight but tbh, you don’t visit Paris for an early night 😉
16 July 2024
All good, staff very helpful, loved the fact we were on the river and close for travel.
Great for train access, and loved the bar over the way.
Nothing really, train noise with window open .
11 July 2024
It was an amazing experience
The hotel rooms was perfect for 2 people
The shower facilities didn't provide enough privacy
10 July 2024
Great location & views of the Seine
Lovely hotel in a great location, very close to the metro which meant your could get anywhere within 30 minutes. Beautiful setting on the Seine with a great bar onsite and some nearby.
The pool was quite small, more of a feature than something useable. I didn't have much interaction with the staff to be honest.
8 July 2024
Very good
Great location.
Small rooms & showering area. The smell of urine in bathroom was unpleasant.
7 July 2024
Excellent & Unusual Hotel a short walk from Gare de Lyon.
A short walk from Gare de Lyon with an excellent restaurant, and there’s a lovely common area in the middle of the boat where you can wile away an hour with a coffee and a good book.
Nothing springs to mind.

Fabulous
Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was clean and lovely views.
Breakfast could be a little more healthy. More fresh fruit perhaps.
24 June 2024
This was a perfect home base for our stay in lovely Paris.
Its location was both beautiful, being right on the Seine,and convenient, being right across from Gare D’Austerlitz. It was fun to see the boat traffic right from the water. The staff could not have been nicer nor more helpful. If my eight year old grandson was writing this review, he would be sure to mention the pool, which he loved.
