Perfect

This hotel was one the best, gorgeous decor when you enter. Receptionists helpful. Room was very spacious. Bathroom clean but could do with an overhead more modern shower to go with the modern room. We couldn't get the air con working but this was fixed. Breakfast was vast - every dish you could want, fry up, cereals, pancakes, breads, cheeses, meats, yoghurts, fresh fruit. If we went to Bruges again we would stop there without any hesitation

This hotel was very nice. Some facilities such as the Ironing were not in the room (in a communal room on another floor) but this was not a problem to access. It’s good that the rooms have air conditioning as many other hotels in Brugge don’t! Staff were friendly and helpful.

This charming hotel is steps away from Lovers Lake, the Brugge swans, a lovely chocolate shop, several cafes, and the historic district. I loved that they offered large rooms with multiple beds making it convenient for our family to stay together. The layout of the hotel is a tad confusing, but not a problem once you get the hang of it. The hotel us much larger than it appears. Parking spaces are tight and limited, so if you are bringing a rental car with you call ahead and let them know so they can reserve a space. The overall atmosphere, cleanliness, and quaint charm make this place an absolute win for a visit to Brugge. I would definitely choose to stay here again.
