Excellent stay for me and my family (3 children). We stayed in the family room and had lots of space. The room was in need of some repairs (broken tiles in the bathroom) but the location is perfect, the staff is amazing and the breakfast every morning was just enough to fuel ourselves for a day of exploring the beautiful area of Bruges.

Friendly Place

Little hotel with a friendly attitude. Located off the main touristy areas and a short walk to train station. Welcoming and helpful staff, excellent breakfast, simple yet pleasing room and nice little outdoor terrace to end the day with a cold local brew. The only issue was the hot and stuffy room due to the warm weather and not being able to keep the window open due to mosquitos. Otherwise, good vibe and good for solo travellers.

In general, the hotel is average low for the price charged vs the benefit provided. We understand that there was no AC, however, the fan was quite small and inefficient. Towels were quite used and seemed old. Breakfast was average.

Great location, but sadly not well-cared for

Pros: - magnificent building - great location - tasty breakfast - stylish interior Cons: - not really well cared for - cleaning lacks attention to detail - front-desk seems strangely uninterested Additional info: we were able to switch rooms but nevertheless our experience didn't change a lot - it's definitely not worth the money, but could be improved a lot easily by a better, more caring management.

Not what I paid for. Had to reserved another place

I reserved a big windows to the canal room. 200 euros!!! When I arrived I had an attic room with more than small windows. I had to go back to the reception area and after half an hour of showing the pictures and my reservation papers I was so tired of debating that I decided to leave. Careful, the photos are deceiving. The place is worn down. The only good thing: Balthasar, who handled the situation like a professional. Avoid the place, I reserved another hotel, less expensive and more amenities. I wrote an email and have not received anything as an answer. Spare yourself the bad experience.

Excellently placed hotel with onsite parking

It was a bonus to have a hotel with on-site parking (needs reserving in advance and attracts additional fee). The location was excellent being easy to get to the centre of Bruges which is just a few minutes walk away. The staff were all very welcoming and mainly eager to assist - some appeared much more experienced than others. I was told that gluten free bread was unavailable but do not know whether that would have been the case if I had asked other members of staff - there was a buffet selection of meats, cheeses, eggs, salad, cereal and fruit so there were alternatives available and all of it looked fresh and appetising. A lot of the crockery seemed to be damaged but it was clean and always available. The standard of housekeeping varied quite considerably between the 2 days we were there - first day the duvet was straightened - second day all the bedding was beautifully restored. The USB socket in the room did not work but if we had raised it with the staff it would more than likely have been sorted out - we forgot as we had improvised using the socket on the back of the TV. The room was clean and comfortable with a pleasant view. There was not much storage, seeming to be better suited to short stays but it was absolutely fine for 3 nights. The safe was useful. There were no tea or coffee making facilities in the room but they could be purchased at the bar - a price list in the room would have been useful. We would consider staying there again.

Estuvimos en la habitación cuádruple, con nuestros hijos. La estancia fue buena, la habitación es amplia y silenciosa y estaba muy limpia. El baño es enorme pero es extraño no tener mampara o cortina en la ducha, por lo que se moja todo el baño. La taza del WC era muy alta, un poco "columpio". Había jabón, champú y crema en el baño. Los colchones eran cómodos y el desayuno estaba bien, aunque no había apenas bollería. La ubicación es céntrica sin estar en las zonas más transitadas, por lo que se agradece la tranquilidad. Estuvimos cómodos y volveríamos a este hotel

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.
