The house boat is a quite amazing experience and highly recommended. It was much larger than we expected and has a great boat home feel. Location is simply amazing and the perfect starting point to explore Paris. The ability to park directly on the dockside near the boat is also a great plus in such a central location. A real hidden secret, highly recommended. Top Tip: turn the heating off overnight to avoid "clonking" from the heating system. Buy some earplugs if your sensitive to noise, your on a boat after all!
