Great place to stay in Belfast

The barge is really comfortable and well decorated. Very clean and a novel place to stay.

There's no way to really cook anything but we worked around it

Unique accommodation in a convenient part of Belfast

Unique property, in a great location, with great views and lovely lounge.

Bunk room really not suitable for 2 adults, as the lower bunk too little headroom. This wasn't obvious in the pictures

7.0 / 10.0

A unique opportunity and bit of an adventure

Cosy, beautiful boat and location. Really comfy beds and nice and warm. Lovely hosts.

Weather was poor and may have impacted this as we found the extent of the rocking motion of the boat challenging and the noises from this. Hard to sleep, and with rain noise on roof. Also no hot water one morning.

1.0 / 10.0

Disappointing - glad we only booked 3 nights and not longer.

The location of the barge is excellent.

The barge flooring - cabin deck is damp giving off a musty smell - the swollen flooring made opening and closing the bathroom door very difficult - the door opening into the main cabin had a similar issue. The barge is tired and needs maintenance and updating. It does not look like the pictures displayed. It is not made clear on booking that you are not booking the entire barge but half on it. The barge is split into 2 separate self contained accommodation units. It could be wonderful but I wouldn't book it again.

Great quirky location

Location excellent in Titanic quarter. Comfortable and cosy. Quiet and secure. Easily found by taxi. More facilities than explained in the advert, eg galley kitchen with cooke and fridger, hair drier, shower work towels and hand soap.

Not sure I would easily have found easily without the taxi drivers help. Was lots of tea and coffee but no decaff. Slight holiday caravan smell, which is understandable and not intrusive

Nice weekend with my dad

Barge was lovely clean and warm, u didn't realize when booking it that other people were staying on it as well, I thought it was the whole barge other than that was nice

Close to arena

Loved it. Looking forward to coming back in 2026. Thank you 😊

Visiting friends in Belfast, Barge at Titanic is the perfect place to stay in terms of both location and privacy of own space, You can easily get out and about or alternatively have an amazing space to chill if that’s what you want.

There’s nothing not to like. Super clean barge with everything you could need for a stay, fab location, brilliant comms with host. Already been twice and we’ve just booked for 2026.

Possibly the best ever stay on a vacation!

The Barge at the titanic was amazing! We feel so fortunate to have been able to stay their during our trip around Ireland. The hosts provided excellent directions and were easily accessible. Thank you for our lovely stay!

Great experience - amazing location - definitely different!

We loved the location, and the experience of staying on a houseboat. Great memories were made.

Some small details were missed in the cleaning before our arrival (e.g. there was a full ashtray left on the seating outside, and there was not enough toilet paper)

9.0 / 10.0

Fantastic location

Fantastic location and loved the view of the water and the seagulls eating mussels. Accommodation very clean and well thought out. Great living room and sitting out area. Pleasantly surprised that boat didn't move too much in the strong winds!

Bunk bed room a little cramped for tall teens.

10.0 / 10.0

Quirky fun stay in perfect location!

Something a little different while having everything you need in an amazing location! We had fun with the kids at all the local attractions and everything that the Odyssey has to offer during the day and then chilled on the boat at night. Self check in for relaxed check-in but the owner is only a text message away. The kids will be telling people for months about how they stayed on a barge!

There was absolutely nothing we didn’t enjoy about our stay!

Didn't live up to our expectations

Loved the location

Very cramped. The outside space our end was tiny. The photos of it, made everything look alot more spacious than it actually was. Bit grubby.

8.0 / 10.0

Cool and convenient

Views were beautiful. Nice to have outside space. The shower was an amazing size considering it's on a barge. Location was very cool. Very near to the Titanic museum and there were shops and food right nearby. Also a good location for walking along the river into Belfast centre.

The lock on one door was broken, though they did send someone to have a look. Not the front door, so no biggie. Not really their issue, and they do mention parking is cheaper elsewhere, but the most convenient parking right next to the barge was very expensive. It was a toss up of convenience over cost.

9.0 / 10.0

A most enjoyable stay. We were entertained watching seagulls breaking open mussels.

The location was superb and the lounge area was a real bonus.

A little difficult to access the bed if you have mobility issues.

Very disappointed

The views

Wasn't what we expected nothing like the photos and not very clean at all and you only get half of the boat and bunk beds are very small

8.0 / 10.0

Fantastic location

Great location Marina facilities and restaurants so close Lots of power points Some teabags and coffee no milk Nice decor and comfy bed

Very compact - tiny fridge, Oven old. No hanging space for clothes other than a few hooks for coathangers. One bag rack. Tiny bathroom would benefit from a shelf and another in the shower other than the porthole sill No PowerPoint for dryer in bathroom but there were 2 hair dryers Lounge very low and soft ugh Most of the blind “pulls” were broken Only 1 teaspoon in cutlery Noisy neighbours (other half of barge)

Big disappointment! Needs a good clean.

The location!

I wish I hadn’t booked this property it is really a health hazard! 🤮 It could do with a good clean, glasses, cups, plates and cutlery were so greasy they had a grey film of dirt! The kitchen sponge hadn’t been replaced in months. We had to wash items before we could use them, big chips in the cups. The damp and mould issues were horrendous especially if we had children. The cord on the blind was broken (this was reported 3 years ago) plus mould on the back of the blind near a light fixture that was covered in black mould. Near a bunk bed for sleeping. Apparently, the boat had been cleaned! It was clear that this had been very minimal as there was really no evidence of cleaning. Black mould under all the kitchen cabinets. The cover of the settee was filthy it hadn’t been washed in months. The whole place looks lovely in pictures but in reality it is a filthy hazzard! I would definitely not book again. Not enough space to show photos!

9.0 / 10.0

Unique stay, great location!

The little kitchenette was great and we could sit on the small balcony with a glass of wine at night. The kids loved the bunk beds. Easy walk into the Cathedral Quarter and to the Titanic Museum.

From the photos we didn’t realize how small it would be. It was fine for 2 nights but I don’t think our family of 4 could have stayed longer.

Superb and Unique.

The Barge is beautiful and has everything you need. We were a group of 4 and enjoyed every minute. It's location in Titanic Quarter is great as is its proximity to the city centre. It's a special and unique experience. We will be back.

A bigger fridge if space permits.

Lovely novelty and made our stay in Belfast that extra bit special

Beautiful boat, very tranquil setting with loads of amenities and tourist attractions on your door step.

The barge has a motor that runs for the toilet which run almost consistently and this noise was irritating when trying to sleep as it’s right next to bedroom but this is obviously part of the deal when choosing to stay on a barge.

Lovely wee boat, perfect location!

Great location and my kids (9 and 11) absolutely loved being on a boat! The Spar was a lifesaver for a quick breakfast and snacks. Easy walk into town for dinner, and loads for the children to do in the area. The boat had a small TV and Firestick on it. The weather was perfect for our trip so we were really lucky. We had a great time exploring NI and hopefully will be back again.

Nothing! It is small, as you would expect for a barge, so probably not to everyone's taste, but if you're looking for something a bit different and novel, it's perfect, especially for primary school-aged children. I probably wouldn't recommend it for younger children.

Unique, comfortable accommodation in perfect central location but private and quiet ! Loved so much

Location excellent just a few steps from the arena for concert we were attending !

Would have been great if a toaster rather than using the very small oven which was fiddly to use..

10.0 / 10.0

The barge host ensured a great holiday for us ..... Despite a battle against mother nature.

The host informed us that the Marina was closed due to the recent storm damage. However, the host ensured we found suitable alternative accomodation for our stay in Belfast. Obviously this was out of the host's control, but the host handled it with excellent professionalism throughout to reach an above and beyond conclusion for my family.

Our only regret is that we didn't get to experience the barge. We had a walk down beside the barge and it looks really good from the outside 👍, and very handy for Titanic museum, being only a short walk from the rest of the city centre.

Great!.

Lovely quirky little place to stay in a great location!.

Expensive parking & perhaps a few extra bits to make cooking easier but otherwise very enjoyable!.

3.0 / 10.0

Didn't end up staying on the boat as the owner made us feel uncomfortable, & booked somewhere else.

The view of the Harbour was superb but the boat was moored in between two other bigger vessels impacting privacy in and on the boat.

The owner insists to meet upon arrival, felt he was intrusive, made it about himself to talk and overstay his welcome without regard for our own holiday itinerary or time. Stated initially I didn't need to know the keypad code to the boat until he had finished his spiel. Essentially refusing to leave until he was finished talking. It was not necessary for the owner to meet and greet at the boat! Didn't feel right!
