Ok so there are two different buildings for this hotel and you will have totally different experiences depending on if you are in the from historic building with elegant rooms and facing the castle or if you have to go all the way to the back to that scary ugly building that in no way feels like you are in Brugge. Good luck we where first put in back and I went to desk and asked and they put us in main building with gorgeous room and perfect view of castle from our window.

Parking is a challenge but we knew this prior to our arrival. Hotel staff did a great job communicating with us prior to our arrival. The area around the hotel is shutdown to vehicle traffic mid to late July due to 10 day music festival (fun time - great energy). AC unit was not working properly but windows open - not a big concern. Bed extremely comfortable. Room was clean - nicely done. Would stay again.

Great time in Bruges!

The location is the best. The hotel is comfortable nothing negative to say. The young lady employee at the breakfast room was very helpful giving us useful touristic information I could not get at the front desk.

Is a very nice hotel. Definitely an older one but is well kept up. The location was fabulous. It’s diagonal to the Gravensteen castle. Very short, walk to canals and all the eatery places as well as tourist attractions. Check in staff were extremely helpful.

The location cannot be faulted. However the room we were allocated was not of the standard we expected. No mirror in the room, other than the one in the bathroom (which you could not get close too). Very tight space around the bed. Towels were of poor quality. Considering what we paid we expected better quality overall.

2 Days in Ghent

The hotel was located a short walk from the castle on a pretty cobbled street with shops and restaurants typical of Ghent. The bed was really comfortable, the room spacious and the bathroom well appointed with a good shower. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful and a good continental breakfast was provided.
