We had a great overnight stop here. The hotel is located a short drive into the centre. We were disappointed not to be able to have lunch or evening meal at the hotel, particularly as food was being prepared for a small private party. After a very long drive, a light snack and a chance to rest would have been very welcome. There are no restaurants close by so we were directed to the centre of Brugge for food. My advice would be to make sure you do not arrive at the hotel tired and hungry! Other than that. This was a very pleasant stay.

Unfortunately, they had an event in their ballroom, I was told 150 people. Hence it was very noisy, and it would have been better if we had been told before so we could get ear defenders! It was too late to ask for a different room. Our room overlooked the road at the front of the hotel. It is in a good location for a meeting I attend twice a year, and I will try for a better room next time.

Beautiful hotel in a lovely location on the outskirts of Bruges. Easy parking available. Rooms spacious with excellent shower. Lovely rear views over the garden. Great breakfast choices in a splendid restaurant. Staff friendly and welcoming. One minor gripe - no tea/coffee making facilities in the bedroom. Will definitely stay again when next in Bruges.

It was a really nice experience for the price. The grounds are beautiful and there is a lovely pond in the back. The rooms were a bit run down but the beds were fine. The bathrooms were also surprisingly clean. Breakfast was simple but tasty, especially considering it was included.

Lovely building, grounds, and breakfast

We needed a one night stay in Bruges and this hotel just outside the city worked perfectly for us. You will need a bike, car, or taxi to get into the city. It is too far to walk. There’s no one working the check in desk, but when you ring the bell, someone comes within a couple of minutes. Check-in and check-out went smoothly with no issues. The grounds in the back are spectacular and there is a nice walking path around the pond. It is such a beautiful setting. The room we stayed in faced the gardens in the back and away from the street. Toilet & shower room were your typical smallish European style. Soap & shampoo were provided. Our booking included breakfast which was very impressive. We sat at our own cloth covered table. The food and beverage buffet was top notch. It included eggs, bacon, multiple cheeses & bread, cereal, yogurt, coffee, tea, and orange juice. Also fresh croissants and pain chocolate. We will definitely stay here again the next time we find ourselves in Bruges and would recommend it to others. Overall a very nice stay.

A badly managed hotel

We booked a room facing the lake ( rather than a busy road). On arrival we were placed in a noisy room overlooking the road. Only on our direct complaint was a room overlooking the garden/lake forthcoming. On our arrival a full dress wedding was getting under way. Despite having advised the hotel that we would want dinner, we were told that the dining room would not be available to us and we would have to find a restaurant outside the hotel. No effort was made to suggest a suitable restaurant in the area, still less to make a booking for us (which on a Friday evening turned out to be vital). We were therefore left to walk up and down until we found a restaurant able to take us.
