Good location especially getting off the bus from the station. Canal room was great! Just what I hoped for. Quiet in the evening on this side of town too. Had a great breakfast at @tatties in the next block very near, and a good mid point for walking to the windmills etc. had a great time. Stairs are a bit of a trick, you’ll get used to them but keep in mind luggage or up and over the stairs between their 5 connected buildings. Adds to the quirk of it all.

We really enjoy staying at this hotel. Check in was very easy, the actual location made it very easy to walk to all of our activities, even though it's on the outer edge of the downtown area, it is so easy to get right into the heart of market square but yet stay far away from the big crowds, only a 9-minute walk. The only thing that I did not love about the hotel which cannot be controlled by the hotel itself, we had a beautiful room that overlooked the canal but unfortunately as the cars drove by who is very noisy from the street. Nothing the hotel could do about this, just something that if somebody is very sensitive to noise they should consider a garden view instead. Also there are a lot of stairs, so this should be considered if anybody has trouble navigating stairs. We would definitely stay here again.

Convenient stay

The hotel has a very good location, which made it convenient for getting around. However, my room was on the first floor, right next to the elevator area, so I could hear everyone passing by, which made it a bit noisy. Another downside was that there were no ramps for luggage, which made moving bags around less comfortable.

Good location of hotel. Central but quiet. Rooms were large but in poor condition. Beds were old and uncomfortable. No usb ports. We had issues with mosquitoes coming into the room. Breakfast was below average for a 4 star hotel and I expected better choice. Staff were okay. Could do with a revamp but we enjoyed our time in Bruges nonetheless.
