A very charming hotel, beautifully decorated as the cyclists hotel that it is. Didn't need parking and it was about 4km from the tourist areas of Bruges but a local bus was easily caught. Staff - mostly were very friendly & efficient apart from one encounter.with a female staff member at breakfast who saw me put my salad from their small bowl to my own larger container (to mix with cheese I brought and couldn't bring back to the UK.) In front of everybody in the restaurant and before I even sat down she told me I had to buy some special sandwich package but she would let it go this time. I took it as being a lost in translation thing and we were both polite (and I ate my salad with the rest of my breakfast) but she embarrassed me in a busy room and made me feel like a salad thief. On that basis and the 4Km out of town my next visit to Bruges I will stay elsewhere, with apologies to all their other very professional staff.
