“In my opinion, this hotel captures Bruges' spirit with its charming, old-world feel and incredibly welcoming staff. I was particularly struck by the location, a short walk from the main square, and the thoughtful touches, like eggs cooked to order at breakfast. For those seeking a personal and authentic Bruges experience, this hotel seems an excellent choice.”
