Top Bruges Hotel Reviews

Canal View Hotel Ter Brughe by CW Hotel Collection

8/10 Good

"Charming hotel and a wonderful staff. Room was very small - cramped!"

Grand Hotel Casselbergh Bruges

10/10 Excellent

"I've stayed in dozens of hotels over the years and this was among my favourites. It's a great location close to the center of historic Brugges, beautifully decorated, and our room was quite lovely and a decent size. The breakfast buffet, in a renovated room with lots of seating, was included and had a variety of delicious, high quality options (salmon, cheeses, meats, as well as traditionalenglish and american style options). We also enjoyed tea one evening in their beautifully appointed lounge area and had great service. I found the decor in this hotel to be charming, a modern take on classic design. Every room, hallway, etc, was thoughtfully put together. Usually a hotel is a place to sleep but I enjoyed spending time in the hotel common areas. Most importantly, my husband became unexpectedly ill and staff quickly helped me find an online doctor for a same day appointment for him, and then showed me where to find the closest pharmacy. They helped make an overwhelming situation very easy to manage. Staff were warm, welcoming and helpful from check in to check out. I 110% would recommend this hotel and stay here again."

Martin's Relais

10/10 Excellent

"A beautiful hotel in a beautiful town, close to restaurants, bars and yes, chocolate. With a view of the canals, just about perfect. The breakfast was superb, the staff friendly and helpful and the evenings quiet. My own wish: The return of the cotton blanket. Comforters sometimes require sir conditioning, and that just doesn‘t make sense on a pleasantly cool night."

Martin's Brugge

8/10 Good

"Great location and very clean. Good size bathroom. Beds and pillows are not comfortable. I did not liked the fact that they do not have double beds, only two twins put together. It would had been great to have a coffee machine in the bedroom."

Hotel de Orangerie by CW Hotel Collection - Small Luxury Hotels of the World

10/10 Excellent

"The perfect place to stay in Bruges. Room was clean and we had amazing views of the water. The patio was gorgeous to have a drink on. Staff was so nice and helpful. Only suggestion would be to upgrade the hair dryers, but 100% would stay again!"
