Lovely hotel in a great location

Lovely hotel with friendly welcoming staff and an excellent location near to the town centre . The room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was a continental buffet with a good choice of cereals, boiled eggs , cold meats and bread . Unlimited hot drinks during the day until 10pm from the dining area was a bonus as well .

Amazing property - right on a canal and original interior. If you want to stay in Bruges I recommend this hotel - very friendly staff, clean rooms, authentic Bruges style. If you’re looking for modernity - try somewhere else. If history is your thing - you’ll love this place

Overall, a very cosy stay. It's a family run hotel and the staff we did meet were very friendly. The location is very convenient too. A couple of downsides are involving the room, it could get incredibly warm even with the radiator turned down and the pillows weren't very comfortable. It would also be nice if they had tea and coffee maki facilities too.

Very thin walls, otherwise ok

Basic nice hotel with the nice view and location. Walls are very thin though. You can hear everything, including the alarm of your room neighbor which they did not turn off fand it was ringing for many minuts and waking us up too. Also we could hear them having sex at 4.00 am.. Don't expect much from the breakfast- it does not have fresh fruits, mostly bread and cheese.

Great location and the comfiest of beds! Our room was basic, no tea/coffee or fridge etc but that was fine for us, there was water though. Like others have said, there are areas that are in need of some tidying up but none of it would affect your stay. Breakfast was great, i wasn't expecting much after reading some reviews but it was all fresh and plentiful. All in all, it was a very pleasant stay, we were just there for a night so maybe I'd prefer more room facilities if i was to stay longer.

Minimalist rooms done nicely, in a great quiet location on the West side near the train station. The canal view was as promised, but be careful of mosquitos sneaking into the room. An extra plus for the breakfast, though I did wish there was tea and coffee for the rooms. Two minor minuses - There was an issue with hot water, but this was sorted out and I was able to check out later because of it; One of the glasses wasn't clean (with leftover lipstick), but there were plenty of other clean looking glasses available. I'd happily stay again.

Perfect ... could not ask for more

We loved this place. Staff were amazing. Chatty and informative and helpful. We asked for a kettle and it was done no problem at. The view was amazing... it was of the canal and we spent time watching the water birds and really enjoyed the kingfisher. The walk into town centre was easy and quick. Breakfast was continental and tasty ... with wonderful fresh bakes each day .. scrummy !! Unfortunately when i checked my coat i found id forgotten to hand in the key... so i guess i will just have to go back and return it ... oh damn !! Lol
