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.

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

Period property in the heart of Bruges, this is however a basic hotel. No tea, coffee maaking facilities in room, no bedside cabinets and despite asking 3 times for someone to look st our faulty in room safe, this did not materialise. Basic continental breakfast., with a little work on rooms and facilities and maybe some more staff, it could be a gem in Bruges

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.

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.

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.

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.
