Excellent location, a 10 minute drive from the market square in Bruges city centre. A large carpark outside the hotel which was convenient, great selection at breakfast & dog-friendly rooms! Lovely grounds at the rear of the building to walk our dog when he needed to go.

We stayed at Hotel Lodewijk Van Male during our visit to Bruges for the Christmas markets, and it was a wonderful base for the trip. The hotel is set in a beautiful, peaceful location just outside the city centre, offering a welcome sense of calm after busy days exploring the markets and historic streets. The building itself is full of character, with a warm and traditional feel throughout. Our room was comfortable, clean, and well presented, providing everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The grounds are particularly lovely and added to the charm of the experience, especially during the winter season. The staff were friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, making us feel at home from the moment we arrived. Breakfast was a real highlight, with a generous selection of fresh and tasty options to set us up well for the day ahead. Overall, this is a charming and comfortable hotel that offers a peaceful retreat while still being well connected to Bruges. We would happily stay again and would strongly recommend it to anyone visiting the city, particularly during the Christmas markets.

Not as advertised

Not what we were expecting, very dated, room in desperate need of an upgrade the amount of spillages on the 30+ year old carpet was disgusting. The room was a non smoking room which stunk of smoke. We didnt even stay for the Breakfast that we paid for. We were told No breakfast till 8am. It also had the most unsecure doors ive ever seen and the bathroom door didnt shut .cant believe the great scores advertised.

We had a great overnight stop here. The hotel is located a short drive into the centre. We were disappointed not to be able to have lunch or evening meal at the hotel, particularly as food was being prepared for a small private party. After a very long drive, a light snack and a chance to rest would have been very welcome. There are no restaurants close by so we were directed to the centre of Brugge for food. My advice would be to make sure you do not arrive at the hotel tired and hungry! Other than that. This was a very pleasant stay.

Unfortunately, they had an event in their ballroom, I was told 150 people. Hence it was very noisy, and it would have been better if we had been told before so we could get ear defenders! It was too late to ask for a different room. Our room overlooked the road at the front of the hotel. It is in a good location for a meeting I attend twice a year, and I will try for a better room next time.

Beautiful hotel in a lovely location on the outskirts of Bruges. Easy parking available. Rooms spacious with excellent shower. Lovely rear views over the garden. Great breakfast choices in a splendid restaurant. Staff friendly and welcoming. One minor gripe - no tea/coffee making facilities in the bedroom. Will definitely stay again when next in Bruges.

It was a really nice experience for the price. The grounds are beautiful and there is a lovely pond in the back. The rooms were a bit run down but the beds were fine. The bathrooms were also surprisingly clean. Breakfast was simple but tasty, especially considering it was included.

Lovely building, grounds, and breakfast

We needed a one night stay in Bruges and this hotel just outside the city worked perfectly for us. You will need a bike, car, or taxi to get into the city. It is too far to walk. There’s no one working the check in desk, but when you ring the bell, someone comes within a couple of minutes. Check-in and check-out went smoothly with no issues. The grounds in the back are spectacular and there is a nice walking path around the pond. It is such a beautiful setting. The room we stayed in faced the gardens in the back and away from the street. Toilet & shower room were your typical smallish European style. Soap & shampoo were provided. Our booking included breakfast which was very impressive. We sat at our own cloth covered table. The food and beverage buffet was top notch. It included eggs, bacon, multiple cheeses & bread, cereal, yogurt, coffee, tea, and orange juice. Also fresh croissants and pain chocolate. We will definitely stay here again the next time we find ourselves in Bruges and would recommend it to others. Overall a very nice stay.
