Real guests • Real stays • Real opinions
The property staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly, and the hotel featured numerous comfortable common rooms. One could enjoy a drink from the bar in one of many extremely comfortable sofas which we enjoyed on a cold weekend, but the hotel also has outdoor areas on the canal which would be delightful in warmer weather!

LebanonWe read that there was no other nor better place to stay in Bruges than Van Cleef and having stayed there we now know exactly why. Just brilliant. Don't think twice, just book it - you will not be disappointed!
United KingdomAbsolutely one of our favorite hotel experiences! Everything was perfect! The staff and service were of the highest level, the decor was elegant yet comfortable. I wish we had more time to just hang out in the hotel and relax. Loved the Bellinis and little bites of deliciousness they bring you when you're in the lobby.
United States of AmericaThe staff, especially the night manager, Ben, was exceptional. The hotel was close enough to the main areas to walk the entire old city. We received recommendations for dinner that both turned out to be wonderful. It was a wonderful place to take a break from walking the city and having tea or coffee while overlooking the canal. The people were friendly everywhere we went. If you like to walk then this is the place to visit.
