Hotel de Orangerie Bruges

Nestled in the heart of Bruges, only minutes away from the boutiques and city sights, Hotel de Orangerie is 15th-century former convent, in a charming waterside setting on the picturesque Den Dijver Canal. An elegant haven, Hotel de Orangerie is packed with engravings, old paintings, reproductions of tapestries, silk-lined curtains and antiques, so the hotel retains a certain nostalgic charm. The blend of antique furniture and contemporary pastel-coloured paintwork gives the hotel a cosy yet fresh, modern feel. Enjoy a champagne breakfast or English afternoon tea on the waterfront terrace or get cosy in the oak-panelled dining room or on a sofa by an open fire. Step outside Hotel de Orangerie and you are in the heart of the city. Explore the sights by canal boat or by horse-drawn carriage, before dining in one of Bruges' many gourmet restaurants Hotel de Orangerie has 20 rooms and suites that are all magnificent and have been completely renovated and furnished with exclusive fabrics, antiques and 'objects d'art. Breakfast is served with champagne and lots of fresh fruit. In winter, English Afternoon Tea is served in the cosy lounge by the open fire; in summer, it can be taken on the terrace by the canal. Soaking up the romantic atmosphere of the city on foot, in a carriage or by canal is one of the essential pleasures of Brugge and it is a comforting thought that the hotel's cosy fireside sofas in the panelled lounge are never far away.
