“This hotel strikes me as a restored patrician house that artfully blends historical charm with contemporary convenience, near the Belfry and Market Square; its location, while central, maintains a quiet atmosphere. The extensive breakfast and canal-side terrace stand out, as does the friendly staff who offer personalized local insights, in my opinion. A solid choice for those wanting a Bruges experience that balances history and relaxation.”

Really good Stay at This Wonderful Place

canal viewperfect locationbroken blinds
The staff was very friendly and helpful. I had a room with a canal view, beautiful!!! The parking was perfect!!! It was great to have a clean room in a perfect location for everything!!!
I found that the room lacked sufficient amenities. There was no kettle available, and the blinds on one window were broken. I also noted only two coat hangers and no other spaces for storing clothes.

the breakfast choices were plentiful, a definite plus.
i booked a superior double room with a canal view, but the room was quite worn. there was damage on the walls and an unsecured blind on the window facing another patio. mosquitoes were awful when i opened the windows since there was no air conditioning.
