This Freycinet barge, built in 1956, has a rich and unique history. Originally operated as a hotel barge, it was later converted into an event boat. Today, it presents a rare opportunity to develop a luxury floating accommodation concept, such as a floating boutique hotel or upscale guesthouse. Additionally, its valid Community Certificate, which runs through 2031, ensures a safe and compliant operation under current inland navigation standards.

At the bow, the wheelhouse opens onto the skipper’s apartment, which includes a double cabin and a private bathroom—perfect for providing an independent space for crew or a live-in manager. Furthermore, a fully equipped kitchen with stovetop, oven, microwave, and 220V refrigerator makes onboard living comfortable and practical. A washing machine and dryer complement the onboard amenities, offering full autonomy.

Midship, the spacious communal living area includes a cozy lounge, dining room, and bar, all benefiting from panoramic views—creating a welcoming and social environment. Three generously sized cabins, each featuring a double bed, en-suite bathroom with shower and toilet, and a dressing area, provide guests with optimal comfort and complete privacy.

Outside, a large deck with sun loungers invites relaxation or the organization of open-air events with stunning views over the water. In addition, the hull was serviced in 2025, ensuring it is in excellent condition and technically up to date.

Please note: the listed price is excluding VAT.

In summary, this 28.50-meter hotel barge offers the perfect blend of historic charm, modern comfort, and commercial potential—a unique opportunity not to be missed.
