Saved us in a pinch. Evening staff was excellent. Be aware our double room bathroom had glass walls and no door. Open room concept. So no privacy from your travel companion.

It’s a nice hotel in a great location . The rooms are clean and quiet but the room configuration or layout was very awkward. It may be irritating for some. In our case, the toilet opened up directly next to the head of the bed!

Hotel was very central in a walking city. Locating Hotel and parking was extremely difficult without simple instructions or direction which would have made it very easy and simple. Hotel should include parking instructions in its offer. There is very convenient public parking under the square immediately in front of the hotel with elevators that emerge right at the hotel entrance. Without knowing this, it is extremely challenging to drive to/park as hotel is located in center of pedestrian restricted zones.

The property is located strategically at the busiest part of town. The only down side of the property is the shower area is see through. It should be covered by a thicker curtain instead.

A fantastic place to stay!

I would stay there again in a heartbeat! The location was perfect. Close enough to all of the sights but not in the "center" so it was nice and quiet at the end of the night. We stayed there for an anniversary and the team did a great job setting up flowers and cava in the room for when we arrived. It had an all modern vibe which was nice and super close to the train station for an easy arrival and departure. I would stay again and again

The receptionist was extremely helpful. We had a hard time finding how to get to the parking garage thru the streets of Brugge which made is almost late for a scheduled tour. She was very helpful in trying to help me contact the tour agency and very good with giving us directions. A more detailed description on how to access the parking (underground) should be added to the hotel website.

Wonderful boutique type hotel, very friendly helpful staff. Parking garage underground with elevator is just a few steps away. Everything is walkable from this hotel. It was perfect. If you're wondering about the modern glass open type bathroom, the toilet is in a seperate area with a door. There is a thin sheer curtain but not a door. We opened the storage door near one twin bed and it obscured the view. It worked fine for us. Just sat on the other side of the halfwall with the tv to provide privacy for the person showering. Location cant be beat. Views were great too. Book it, you'll be happy with the decision! Highly recommend.

The property was located on a large square with lots of bars and restaurants. The parking was a large underground car park at the square and was very convenient to the Hotel. The hotel is located near all tourist attractions and is a lovely place to stay. The family room was very spacious, with a huge bath tub. We enjoyed a lovely stay here and would definitely choose this hotel again.
