Hotel Barge La Nouvelle Etoile
La Nouvelle Etoile has been designed to offer a very high level of comfort and convenience, to provide a blend of traditional elegance and modern-day facilities.
The spacious, air-conditioned saloon with its attractive cocktail bar, piano, and elegant furnishings provides a truly sophisticated setting, while other amenities include an exercise room and an elevator.
Each of the four generous 200 sq ft cabin suites is lavishly equipped and the en suite bathrooms feature double hand basins and oversized showers. On deck there is a large sun deck with comfortable loungers and a spa pool, as well as bicycles for you to pedal along the nearby towpath.
This cruise on the luxurious La Nouvelle Etoile is a journey back in time through a picturesque landscape along two delightful canals, including France’s oldest, the Canal de Briare.
If you’re looking for an experience that is different to a standard week-long canal cruise, La Nouvelle Etoile offers a number of voyages of exploration that covers a larger distance in the same time period. From the majestic windmills of Holland to the historical beauty of Belgium, from Bruges: the ‘Venice of the North’ all the way to Paris: the ‘City of Love and Lights’ and through the fairytale castles and sloping vineyards of Germany and Luxembourg.
