'Hamilton', a stylish renovated house in Hanseatic medieval centre

Hamilton, a delightful, stylish house situated within easy walking distance of the market place and the historical, gastronomic and cultural highlights of Bruges is located in amongst the canals of the 15th century Hanseatic area of the city.
The recent restoration - a successful marriage of the old and the new - created a peaceful environment, recommended for a two-to-four persons luxury holiday, or for a family with up to two children. With a little bit of luck, there is a parkingplace in front of the house, but a car is not necessary to enjoy Bruges and his surroundings.
Two bikes are provided for your enjoyment, and both walking and cycling in Bruges, and the surrounding areas is easy and fun. The seaside is easily accessible by road or train, or by bike for those with a little more stamina. You have the entire house at your exclusive disposal. Away from home, but at home. All in, you have only to bring with you your tea bags and slippers. Further information and pictures available on our website. Address of the property ; 8000 Bruges, Krom Genthof number 9.

My friend and I loved staying at Hamilton House for our big birthday weekend in Bruges. The house is a beautiful and relaxing environment, everything you might need is provided, and Raphael was easy to contact. The location is very good too; it's only about a 12 minute walk to the Grote Markt, and Jan Van Eyck Plein a few minutes walk away has some really nice cafes and restaurants (book for breakfast at weekends though - we struggled to get a table everywhere and didn't even get to the Blackbird Cafe because it was either fully booked or closed). Top tips: the no 2 bus to/ from the railway station stops at either end of the street (get the train to Oostende or Blankenberge and you can be at the seaside in half an hour), and the Carrefour Express supermarket around the corner is convenient (although it closes at 7pm and apparently fresh milk is not a thing in Bruges!). Recommendations: the old and atmospheric Vlissinghe pub just across the canal for its great food and cute dog; Bruges has lots of little hidden almshouses with gardens where you can sit and enjoy a moment of quiet; if you want to buy Belgian chocolate but don't want to spend a fortune on the fancy stuff, the Chocolaterie Jan De Clerck on Academiestraat is a nice little independent sweet shop. Finally, the Choco Story Museum does chocolate-making classes - and you can take home everything you make!

Lovely Property
Overall a great stay. The rooms were good size and had pretty much everything we needed. The location was excellent, quiet street but a short walk from the main part of town,.the grocery store.and a night shop . The bicycles were a very nice and appreciated addition. Using the code for entry made check in and out easy and means you didn't need to keep track of keys. Some observations (not criticisms): the stairs up to the bed and bathrooms are narrow and winding, they need some care in going up and down. The bed is quite soft (if that matters to someone) but we nevertheless found it quite comfortable. Fans were nice given the unusually hot weather. The washer/dryer took some effort to figure out; Google translate was helpful as the instructions were in French. But having a washer was great. While the bathroom was fine, there was no shampoo or other toiletries so be sure to bring your own. The kitchen is well equipped. TV was nice and worked well. As some others have mentioned, the host came by during the week- he messaged in advance. Not a usual thing in other rentals we have had but not a problem either. We would recommend this property and host!

Picture Perfect
Location was perfect...one lane away from the main road so everything was peaceful and quiet. The owner is clearly a lover of antiques and it made us feel even more like we lived in this fairytale town rather than just visiting. This house is worth staying at just for the books kept there on Bruges. I waited until my last day to pick up two in particular that might have changed my whole visit if I had paid attention to them earlier in my trip. One book is dedicated to the excavation of De Burg and a second is the complete architecture of what must be almost every house in Bruges. I actually walked down the street with it to compare the current look of some neighboring buildings to the way they used to look a hundred years ago. That book could have been its own tour guide to the city and it is fascinating! Thank you so much for providing bicycles. We made a day trip to Damme and it was the highlight of our trip. There is not a more picturesque setting for a picnic than the apple orchard behind the cemetery at Our Lady Ascension Church. We were visiting from America and our host made check-in and check-out very easy and stopped by to introduce himself. We loved our stay and would stay here again without hesitation.

Lovely townhome in the historic center of Bruge
This is a lovely, nicely appointed, and comfortable 3-story townhome in Bruge, close to all historic sites, on a cute little private street. The beds were comfortable. There were ample cooking supplies (pots pans, dishes), two bikes for us to use (very convenient), lots of towels and blankets, and easy access via a code on the front door. Raphael was great with communication ahead of time and checking in was a breeze. The home is filled with art books, historic books on Belgium and bruge, games, comfy throws on the sofa, etc. Everything was very thoughtfully and carefully set up for a family on vacation. We did have one issue worth noting though: Raphael (the owner?) stopped by when we were out and came inside the house twice unannounced. On the second visit, he entered all of the bedrooms and opened the windows. He did leave a note saying he had been there (after the second visit), but we felt he should have given notice ahead of time he would be coming over. We didn't understand the purpose of his visits and have never experienced this before with a vacation rental. We messaged him about this, and he did not reply. Other than this unusual incident for a rented house, everything was great with the stay.

A perfect place to stay
We are a family of 4, with 2 adult children in their 20s, travelling together. We like to dive into the thick of things, then retreat to a quiet spot to relax and re-energize. Though we like eating out, we also enjoy having our own food and doing some cooking. This rental met all of these needs. It is perfectly situated, only minutes from lots of activity but on a small, quiet street off the main path. It was very clean, very well-stocked and the beds were very comfortable. Raphael was very communicative and responded to questions very quickly, though we didn't have many. It is on three floors, so it would not be a realistic place to stay if you have mobility challenges. One bedroom on third floor, one on second, and living area / kitchen on ground floor. The separation of everything was very nice in terms of quiet and not worrying about disturbing others who might be sleeping. We highly recommend this VRBO. Thank you, Raphael!

Quiet, well-equipped property
We really enjoyed our stay at Hamiltonhouse. It’s a short walk to the centre and very well laid-out. Raphael let us know we could get a taxi from the station which was 14 euros. We figured out for our return there is also a very convenient free shuttle which took about 15 mins. The loft is a great space for kids, and the living areas have everything you need. Beds were very comfortable and we appreciated the laundry facilities (once we translated the dials and figured out how to use it!) The only thing we found a bit unusual was that Raphael came by on the second day when we weren’t there. He adjusted the windows upstairs and down and left a note on the table and in the bedroom. Normally, hosts let you know before they come in, but perhaps Belgian customs are different. Apart from that, we thought everything was excellent. Thanks very much

Great location and wonderful host
This is a great location for exploring Bruges. It is tucked into a a quiet residential neighborhood away from the crowds. The house is nicely furnished and the kitchen is well stocked with dishes, cookware and appliances. There are also quite a few books and maps about Bruges. The host stopped by to make sure everything was OK and gave us several restaurant recommendations. I would highly recommend staying here while visiting Bruges.

Lovely stay
We had a very nice time staying five nights in this house. It is compact yet comfortable. Neighborhood is quiet, but it is an easy walk to the center and multiple bars. Beds very comfortable. Shower nice. Tap water tasted good. Note, the only shower is within the 1st floor bedroom, so the people sharing house need to be very comfortable with each other. Better for parents and children than two couples. The owner is very nice. There weren’t many rules and instructions with the house, a change from the full page of instructions we typically get with a holiday home! The kitchen is tiny with a small microwave/oven combo and no freezer, but we managed. Do go to the market on Wednesday morning for delicious cooked takeaway food you can bring back to the house and eat for dinner. We made use of the included umbrellas.
