The hotel is lovely, the staff are friendly and polite, the location is good. On the advice of our booking guide, we reserved a superior room overlooking the canal. This particular stretch of canal terminates just past the hotel with the result of a constant flow of boat trips all with loud microphones taking visitors on tours, which rather spoiled... More

This is a lovely hotel with a friendly staff. Great location, near the center square while overlooking a canal. Rooms are beautifully decorated with upgraded bathrooms and great windows. Wi-fi is a bit pricey if not included in your rate but there is a computer in the lobby for guest use. More

What a great location! Ofcourse the canal is beautiful, but the Jan van Eyck square, the little coffeeshop around the corner, the proximity of Cafe Vlissinghe, Bistro de Refter and Restaurant De Karmeliet make the location even more perfect for a weekend in Bruges. We booked a romantic package for 2 nights. The champagne was fine and breakfast was good... More

Dear VCNAmsterdam, Thank you for taking the time to share your experiences with our future guests. We are very pleased to read that you enjoyed the hotel’s location.

Just stayed in bruges for a long weekend and had the fortune to be in this gorgeous hotel. Room 5 and 29 I can vouch for as absolutely beautiful. (ask for one of the superior rooms). Totally quiet, right next to a pretty canal basin, really handy for the main square, bars, etc. Didn't take breakfast in the hotel as... More

We were there in June 2011. The hotel has a delightful location almost next to the main plaza of the city and perfectly located next to the canal. We had a lovely location with gloriously peaceful views of the canal - btw, the rooms that overlook the garden in front are equally lovely! The lobby has a romantic old world... More

Hotel Martin's Relais is ideally placed in the 'Goldilocks' zone. Not to far and not too near the centre of Bruges. When we arrived, the gentleman behind reception (Frederick) was extremely helpful and pointed out some of the attractions he thought we might like to visit and gave us some background information which was very useful. The hotel building was... More
