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.

We loved our stay at Hotel Van Cleef. The hotel staff were outstanding -- super helpful and inviting. They went above and beyond to make our stay special. The property itself is awesome. The space is very well-decorated with several spaces to sit back, relax and hang out. We honestly wish we had more time to enjoy the space! Our favorite part of the property is the terrace overlooking the canals, where you can enjoy a coffee, tea or cocktail most hours of the day. We'll definitely find our way back to this amazing hotel. Highly recommend it for others as well.

The place is simply wonderful, starting with the reception and its staff, whose smiles never leave their faces and who handle the check-in procedures as quickly as possible. From there, to the hotel lobby made up of several lounges, designed and furnished in a modern way that suits the historic character of the place, then to the warm and beautiful room and the dining hall. Simply put, the place creates a beautiful memory that lasts.

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.

Wonderful and unique boutique! Historic house turned into a very classy and quiet hotel. Just a block or two from the action. We had a cool loft room with a big bed for my wife and I and a loft bed for our son. Service and staff were friendly and accommodating. (The photo is the view from our room ❤️)
