Reviews of Péniche d'hôtes MS Elisabeth

Beautiful inside,location 3 mins from town center bars ,shops. Host.

Very warm.inside. Didn't sleep well.wasnt allowed to open windows as its almost below river level and waves from passing boats could leak in .

The owners of the boat were super friendly and helpful.

We had a problem in our room: the carpet was soaking wet in half of the room and it gave off a bad smell.

The Staff was fantistic, outstanding breakfast!

Everything was great

Second bed too small

The location. It's on a boat! We didn't realise!! Even more amazing.

We couldn't get the WiFi to work

The boat has a great location, just under te Citadell of Namur. From our room we had a special and beautiful view of the river and the houses on the other side of the riverbank. Our room had a very comfortable bed and we had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend. I can recommend this place wholeheartedly if you are up for a not ordinary stay in the city of Namur!

The breakfast is delicious, the room is nice and cozy, the view of the Meuse is authentic from the barge itself, the bed is very comfortable, very friendly and welcoming owner and the experience in the barge is authentic and giving ne alot of maritime vibe too it.

I normally never take the time to write reviews but I feel it is my duty to do so on this stay. Having worked myself in hospitality for many years, experienced top notch properties all over the world with excellent service. The boat is located at the center of Namur, everything is just a stone throw away. You can easily walk within minutes to the center, to the citadel, to the casino (fun at night time). Bernard, the host (I hope I remember his name correct), is very kind and social, his Flemish is cute! He arrives in the morning to prepare your breakfast but then leaves so you can just hang around the boat and do your thing, leaves you to your privacy. Before arrival Bernard asked if there was a special occasion for our stay, he did the effort to get a bottle of champagne as it was my partner birthday - at no cost. Breakfast is amazing, ask for boiled eggs and he brings in this thing that will make the perfect crack in your egg so you can spoon it out. I give this stay, the MS Elisabeth - Péniche Hôtel and Bernard my top rating!

Nothing !

Unique experience of staying on a boat, we’ve loved it! The location is great - city centre (with some nice restaurants) is only a short walk away, and there’s a big parking garage close by if you’re coming by car. Also, the host was very nice and welcoming.

Great stay in a lovely moored boat on the river. Room was typical of the type expected on a boat, but all needs were met.

Had a lovely breakfast with all home made goods, however at 18 euros each, it was pricey.

Beautiful privately owned boat, superb host, great location, quality breakfast

All good

Interesting staying on a boat. The owner was charming and the river views were lovely.

The single beds are a bit narrow.

Lovely night on the water. Don't bother going into town at night, just get some food and a drink and enjoy the setting from the rear deck. Some reviews say it is difficult to find by road - just follow the fence alongside the riverside road to its downstream end and turn left.

A great location, and something different. Martine the host was very welcoming and friendly. Was lovely having breakfast on the deck looking at the river.

The eggs, bread and croissants were very fresh but it would have been nice to have had some fruit and cereal offered as well at breakfast.

Brilliant location just a short walk into Namur centre. Very nice to be on the river. Our host was very welcoming and helpful and the rooms were very good. We loved Namur and enjoyed the bars and had an excellent meal at Le Temps des Cerises .

We declined breakfast which seemed quite expensive for what was on offer. In fact the price had gone up compared to what had been quoted on Booking.com. We opted to walk into Namur to breakfast there which worked very well.

Beautiful barge on the river

Nothing

Friendly helpful staff. Breakfast was wonderful. Location perfect for exploring Namur.

Beds were small and a bit uncomfortable

We arrived quite late but received clear guidance from the owners regarding where to park and how to access the boat. The only temporary (few minute) hitch resulted from stupidity on our part regarding how the door onto the boat works (it slides) We were the only ones staying on the boat so we had the deck to ourselves and spent an hour and a half relaxing and sipping wine (that we brought) while enjoying the night. We had the room with the double bed and it was extremely comfortable. I had to get up early to do a few hours of work and appreciated the Nespresso machine in the room (not so uncommon these days, but still a nice touch). I was able to sit out on the comfortable deck and work while watching the sun come up. The breakfast was excellent. My wife and I were very sorry that we were only spending one night. We definitely plan to come back.

Beautifully restored old boat. Extremely nice and helpful host. Location in the middle of the city, yet calm and quiet.

Cosy, clean, comfortable, classic, creative
