Our group had a wonderful stay at Dukes while visiting Bruges! We loved our top-floor rooms - spacious, comfortable, and perfect for unwinding after exploring the city. The breakfast buffet was fantastic, and the location couldn’t be better, right in the heart of Bruges and close to everything!

We actually stayed at a different hotel from the group, the one we booked was sold out but expedia made a mistake so they transferred us. They let us know in advance and communicated very clearly. We had a comfortable stay but I wouldn't say these hotels are 4 stars, more like 3 or 2. A funny moment was we went down to reception to ask for robes and the lady at the counter said yes the rooms don't come with them, you have to ask reception. We both had a moment of silence with me thinking aren't you reception and have I not just asked for a robe? Then she asked if I would like one so it was all sorted in the end. Breakfast was great! Many options and since we went early, it wasn't crowded at all. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable but for the rate we paid our expectations were higher. We didn't get to try the spa part though so maybe that would have made a difference.

Overall, a really enjoyable stay. The breakfast was nice and the location was really good. Room was clean and refreahed daily. A few areas of particular annoyance: there is little soundproofing between rooms so we were regularly woke up via talking, television and snoring in adjoining rooms. There is a light sensor in the bathroom, but due to its location, it didnt know if anyone was on the toilet and kept turning off. The only way to get the light on again was to get up and walk around after 2 minutes. This was extremely poor and annoying. I didn't expect to need my phone for light when using the toilet in a four star hotel.

Room was spacious and clean and nicely decorated with a view of the courtyard. The bar and other general areas including the courtyard were lovely and relaxing. There was on site parking which was excellent but I would book that ahead to make sure you get a space. The staff were friendly and very helpful.

Nice hotel in a perfect location

The hotel was very well located and within walking distance of all key sites. Staff were friendly and the hotel is in good condition. However rooms were very hot even though we could open the windows. Air circulation and air conditioning needs fixing.
