Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. The room, though clean and well-presented, only had a plunge bath/tub with no shower, which was a bit inconvenient. The service was efficient and the staff was friendly and helpful, but the dining options were limited. The location, right next to the center on a lovely cobbled street, was excellent despite some minor flaws. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.
The hotel is set at the top of two flights of narrow stairs, making it challenging with heavy luggage, but the lovely courtyard attached adds charm. The rooms, contrary to the appearance in pictures, are not as aged and dingy as expected.
The hotel offers spacious and comfortable rooms with a grand stone fireplace and a very comfortable six-foot bed. The rooms are beautiful with a lot of character, and the modern bathrooms are huge and pristine. The cleaning service is excellent, the staff is friendly, and the breakfast is top-notch. The location is perfect for exploring Bruges without feeling overcrowded, but minor noise issues can arise sometimes.
The hotel is a gem in the heart of Bruges, offering beautiful rooms with character, a huge and modern bathroom, and excellent cleaning service. The staff is top-notch, and the breakfast is delightful. While the location is perfect, the rooms at the back require a short walk through the courtyard. A comfortable stay with all essential amenities.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was fantastic, close to the Markt and all the lovely Bruges attractions, but the rooms were not as per advertised, old and run down. The staff were very pleasant and helpful, making the service quite enjoyable. The dining was good, with eggs prepared on the spot, but the facilities were lacking in some areas.
The hotel offers spacious and up-to-date rooms perfect for three adults sharing, albeit a bit too dark at times and in need of better lighting. The service is exceptionally helpful and friendly, making the stay enjoyable. Its convenient location close to the historic center of Bruges adds to its appeal, perfect for exploring the city. The dining experience is a highlight with delicious options and plenty of choices. The hotel provides a variety of facilities catering to guests' needs.
I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The rooms were lovely, the food was high-quality, and the service was impeccable. However, a few more dining options would have been great. Overall, a classy and modern hotel that I would recommend.
The hotel's rooms are large, tastefully decorated, and comfortable, with adequate air conditioning on hot days. However, the smoking policy may seem outdated. The service is marked by a cheerful and helpful staff, offering a warm welcome even after a long drive. The location is perfect, just a short walk to the main square in Bruges, ideal for sightseeing. The dining experience varies from basic to beautiful and abundant. Overall, a great choice to stay in the heart of Bruges.
I felt like I was staying in a painting of the Old Masters with top-class facilities. The room was beautiful and exceptional, making me want to recommend and happily stay there again. However, it could have been more inviting.
My stay at the hotel was delightful! The room, although a bit noisy in the morning due to its proximity to the stairs, was extremely large and charming with beautiful wooden floors and a very comfortable bed. The service was top-notch from the moment we arrived until we left; the staff went out of their way to be helpful and even took us personally to secure parking. The location was excellent, just a few yards from the square and old part of the city, making it easy to explore all the restaurants and bars in the area. The dining experience was good with plenty of continental choices, but could have included more hot food options. Overall, a very relaxing and chilled out hotel that I would definitely recommend and return to in the summer months.
The hotel's location is fantastic, just a few minutes' walk from the main square and surrounded by good restaurants and coffee shops. The rooms, while clean and comfy, could use better placement away from the reception. The staff is incredibly helpful and friendly, making our stay welcoming. The dining experience, especially the breakfast, was good but could offer more variety. Overall, a good and clean place for a reasonable price within walking distance to the town's attractions.
My stay at the hotel was exceptional. The location was perfect, close to the most touristic places and within walking distance to shops. The room 'over the archway' was exactly as shown in the photos and exceeded my expectations. The service was top-notch with attentive staff who made me feel welcomed from the moment I arrived. The breakfast buffet was plentiful and delicious, offering a great start to my day.
