Staff were very helpful and amiable, and accommodated our later arrival. The room was a little weather worn but served its purpose for a quick weekend break. We were on the ground floor right at the front of the hotel which meant that was a bit of noise of an evening and had to keep the curtains closed all the time or would be on view to everyone walking past ☺️ Breakfast was fab and all in all a pleasant stay in Brugge

From the moment we arrived to the time we left the staff couldn’t have done more to help us. Every request we made was done with a very welcome smile.
We will definitely be going back in the future and can definitely recommend the hotel.

My son and I stayed here for a city break in Bruges. We loved the location, the hotel is right in the centre, 1 minute from the square. We felt very safe walking back in the evening. The staff were very friendly and let us keep our bags in the hotel once we had checked out. The breakfast was great, lots of options and freshly cooked egg to your specifications. Lovely, spacious room, and the bathroom room had 2 sinks. The bath was very big. We will definitely come back!
