Perfect romantic getaway!

Wonderful location with a great proximity to the town center yet enough distance for a quiet and peaceful environment. Heidi welcomes you into these quaint and cozy accommodations and provides a personalized breakfast. The property is perfectly maintained and beautifully decorated.

Grwat little hotel with very homey suites

Very clean hotel, with fantastic rooms. It is a very snall hotel with just a few rooms, so it feels very homey. There is a small are with a hot tub, and a littlw stocked bar, and they use the honor system for when you take drinks. I will for sure return!

Great, small B&B with excellent staff that fully accommodated our needs. Heidi and Natalie were awesome. Our room was spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious and the common room had a lovely fireplace. We made use of the hot tub, but it was a bit too cool to use the pool. Secret Garden is in a great location within a 10 min walk of all central old Bruges, but far enough out on the fringe to not be overrun with tourists.

Beautiful Room and Stay in Brugges!

The accommodation was amazing. Beautifully made up, spacious and with a fire to make the evenings really cosy if you stayed in, or when you return from out. The BB also has a lovely hot tub in one of the downstairs room which is on at all times so you're able to make use of whenever you like. Breakfast was a small buffet with a choice of cooked eggs, but plentiful to set you up for the day. Even a glass of free champagne was offered if you wanted! The location is lovely, down a quiet street pedestrian street right next to the canal, but still within 5 mins walking distance to the main square. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend if you're looking to visit Brugges.

Love the location, pool, hot tube, bar service, room, bathroom, and Heidi was beyond welcoming! We were eaten alive at night by mosquitoes and were unaware of mosquitoe heaters tucked away in the closet. We didn’t sleep very well for two nights, but other than that, the secret garden was the luxury of a lifetime!

Perfect location, awesome service, a special place

I can't imagine a better place to stay for a visit to Bruges. If you like to stay in beautifully designed, boutique properties which provide exceptional, personal service and are a refreshing change from the uniformity of big chain hotels, this is absolutely the place for you. Located at the confluence of three canals at the end of a cobbled street where no cars pass, The Secret Garden is less than 5 minutes from the bustling centre of town but far enough away to be peaceful and quiet. The garden is lovely - pool was being warmed when we were there but despite lovely warm spring weather it wasn't quite warm enough. Was noticable that sometimes when we came back curious tourists wandered into the entrance area to peek through, drawn in by just how beautiful the place looked. Our room (the green one) was spacious, with sitting area, large supremely comfortable bed and bathroom with walk in shower and bath with Hermes toiletries. Breakfast was a mix of cheeses and hams, pastries, breads, eggs to order and, if you wanted it, a glass of champagne. All served by Heidi who is a charming, multi-lingual host. During the evening & night, guests have the place to themselves. It's not a traditional hotel with 24/7 service; if that's what you need, this isn't the place for you. But if you like coming back to a gorgeous property in the evening & having the sense that during that time it's almost all yours (including to use the hot tub if you choose), then you'll love it. We did.

Det er The Secret garden <3

Helt fantastik ophold på The Secret Garden. Navnet siger alt. Vi nød værelset - poolen og ikke mindst morgenmaden serveret i haven var dejlig. Samtidig perfekt beliggenhed i forhold til byen og stadig i et roligt kvarter. Ville gerne have været der længere men alt var desværre optaget. Så glad for at vi lige fik en overnatning. Vi kommer bestemt igen. Samtidig så skal Heidi også have 5 store stjerner - hold op en service og imødekommenhed :-) så kan bestemt anbefale et besøg her og i Brugge som er en helt fantastisk by
