Hotel Van Eyck

Definitely not great. To be fair, part of that was due to the unexpectedly hot weather while we were there. With no air-conditioning at the hotel, and a large room (quad) that only had one small window that we could open, it made for an uncomfortable, sleepless night. Front desk is a bit odd - you can supposedly check in until 8 PM, but the front desk closes at 6 pm. Fortunately we arrived on time for check-in, but by the time we settled into the room and had a question, the front desk was already closed for the night. The room was OK, certainly big enough. Yes, there was a big tub in the bathroom, but it had lots of scuff marks and the tile was rusty and showing signs of age. The toilet was crammed into a tiny space between the wall and the tub with barely enough space for an average sized person. They provided the essentials for a shower, but the shower gel was in individual foil packs, not necessarily convenient for a shower. The hotel did provide a tower fan in the room, but that didn't help much. At the end of the day, the hotel can't do anything about the extraordinary weather. The location is also excellent. But it would have made for a much better stay had the hotel put in a little additional effort to provide ice and/or cold drinks somehow to offset the uncomfortably hot room. Our experience is that this is just a basic hotel in a great location, nothing fabulous about it.

Beautiful place - fantastic location. Breakfast was delicious - be sure to book it the day prior. Extremely friendly host - we arrived very late and I think we woke him up but he was still very friendly and patient. The room was charming with high ceilings and pretty decor. Would definitely return!

A clean, comfortable and friendly place to stay, conveniently located near the main attractions and only 20 minutes away from the train station. Lots of nice restaurants and cafés just round the corner. Nice view of Belfort Tower from our room.

Quaint little B and B conveniently located in the city centre, ideal for anyone wishing to spend 2 or 3 days in Bruges. Clean and comfortable, with friendly and helpful staff. Bathroom small but perfectly adequate. Free WiFi. Recommended.

A hidden gem of a hotel, tucked in behind the Market Square. Room was small but absolutely fine for a solo traveller. I slept amazingly well in this hotel. So quiet, while also being very central. The only negative was that breakfast had to be booked in advance for a particular time and wasn't available until 8.30am.

Very cute spot with lovely customer service: thank you!

Excellent location, my room had a stunning view of the bell tower. The host was incredibly kind, spent a lot of time recommending the best things to do in Bruges while I was checking in. The room was comfortable and clean, although admittedly could do with some paint touch ups and aesthetic upgrades but that's to be expected when you're in such a small and likely quite old hotel like this. Overall a great experience, highly recommend!!

The walk to the hotel from Brugge station is very scenic and beautiful. Host was very hospital and knowledgeable of Brugge which was helpful when asking for places worth visiting during our stay! Room was cozy with a nice view of the church, hearing the church bells in the morning was lovely. The hotel is very central, within a couple minutes walk of restaurants, bars, shops, chocolatiers and the market. There was a bit of mould around the shower however, the room was good value for money for a one night budget stay in Brugge. Would recommend!

Bed bugs!! I emailed them the day after check out once I realized that the bites we were waking up with looked exactly like bed bug bites (neither of us had had them before). Staff responded by trying to convince me that we do not have bed bug bites and it is probably mosquitoes (these are most certainly not mosquito bites).
