it was very comfortable. The room is very spacious and with a view to some iconic landmarks. The hotel is near to the main attractions

Hasan Panama

Location, friendly staff, very very good breakfast

Chetan Netherlands

The view from the room was beautiful. Great location. Clean rooms. We were really lucky with the room view as not all rooms of the hotel have the same view. Great value for money

Görkem Netherlands

Location is nice, not in the very centre but within 5-10 minutes walk. If you are looking for a more romantic vacation, you may be looking for street hotels near the canal with a higher budget. Room was clean and comfortable. One issue, there is not any privacy in toilette as there is not really a door, rather and iced glass. It was not a problem for us (in the photos it is already seen) If you are not a couple this may be a problem for you (even if you are a couple). Comparing the prices with other hotels, this is a good catch if you are looking for a budget one with decent location and comfort/clean and pays off the value.

great location next to public transportation. wonderful staff

Kjsutt United States of America

This hotel is in the heart of Brugge, steps from everything. The service was great and there’s a nice restaurant that is part of the hotel with a good outdoor seating area. The breakfast was a buffet with great selections, including bread, cheese, meats, eggs, yogurt, fruit, cereal and outstanding croissants at a reasonable price. The centrum parking garage is extremely convenient and easily accessible to the hotel. We will definitely stay here again.

Sue United States of America

Nice location, comfy room, friendly staff. Very satisfied stay!

Dong Germany

Great location for central parking and Saturday Market. Convenient, hearty breakfast. 3-person was air conditioned, neat, clean and simply furnished with plenty of space. Nice coffee maker in the room with plenty of coffee!

Thomas Belgium

Good breakfast selection; quiet comfortable room/

Joyce United Kingdom

The hotel staff was friendly and provided great information about where to eat nearby. The room was comfortable and had a good view over 't Zand. Public parking is available in a garage located immediately across from the hotel and at a reasonable rate. Breakfast was good.
