A hidden gem! Perfect Brugge Boutique hotel. Everything is top notch--the atmosphere, location, service, etc. It's quite unique--only 17 rooms, and open ONLY to hotel guests . . . Great patio by the canal, truly a magical experience. Thanks Benjamin and Arnoud!

A world class 5* boutique hotel, easily an attraction worth visiting on its own. The space is elegantly designed with top notch furniture and finishings, super comfy beds and zillion details. The staff is very attentive, they advised and booked everything for us; the breakfast and drinks on the terrace is a must. Thank you, Frederick, Benjamin and the rest of the team.

Our stay at the Hotel Van Cleef was an absolute delight. From the attentive staff, the wonderful breakfasts and easy walk to central Bruges made it a great place to stay. Very safe and quiet, one also needs to sit in the area next to the canal to enjoy a meal or an adult beverage. We’ll be back!

The hotel was beautifully decorated, with unique and decoration all around, cozy and the personalized attention was wonderful. The view on the canal for having drinks, coffee, or reading a book was amazing. It was a wonderful location - close walk to everything we wanted to see in Brugge. The breakfast was excellent - very fresh fruit, delicious pastry and bread options and we loved the coffee made to order. The bathroom was modern and beautiful as well. the only issue we had, which was of our own making, was that we did not review the laundry prices before sending out, and it was much much more than we had anticipated. We would have not used that service had we known, but again - it was an outside service and it was our mistake not to inquire as to cost.
