This new floating hotel in Paris is unlike anything we've ever seen

A new hotel has opened in Paris. It might be more appropriate to say it's been launched, since the Off Paris Seine isn't a structure built on dry land, but a floating barge anchored in the middle of Paris' River Seine.

That might sound anxiety-inducing — the exact opposite of what you want in your Paris vacation.

But not to worry — the boat never undocks from its 13th-arrondissement neighborhood, and it's packed with cocktails by renowned mixologist Nicolas Munoz, a plunge pool, and every modern amenity you can imagine.

Take a look around this new kind of hotel, which opened to guests and visitors on June 23.

The Off Paris Seine is a hotel like Paris has never seen before.

Situated on a barge in the Seine, it is quite literally a floating hotel.

The poolside bar area is unique in that it is completely open-air, and has the feeling of a roof deck. It will be enclosed with glass in the winter.
