Radisson Blu Hotels in Bruges

Spacious comfortable rooms in a beautiful building. Situated at the edge of a pretty, quiet residential area, the hotel overlooks a square, and is across from the Concertgebouw Brugge concert hall. The hotel also has outside seating in the back in a quiet garden. There are shops (food market, drugstore, bakery, cheese market, specialty food and more) and several cafes and tea shops just a few minutes away on Smedenstraat It is about a 5-10 minute walk to the center ”touristy” area around Grote Markt etc. We were very happy to be staying away from that busy area. Very helpful staff.

The hotel is in the perfect location to visit and experience all that Bruges has to offer, it is literally 2 mins from the Belfry and the main square. We drove to Bruges and used their secure underground garage for the duration of our stay. The rooms are basic but very comfortable, the bed in particular was very comfy! We had a very small balcony overlooking the road, which was lovely to get the atmosphere. We would have liked tea/coffee making facilities in the room and there was no iron / ironing board (although they were available from reception is needed). The bathroom was spacious and clean, with plenty of hot water for the shower. Although the hotel has a terrace, you can’t use it past 10pm due to noise restrictions, so we moved inside and were served by the stand out star of the hotel for us… Vlaktko the excellent bar man. He makes the best Moscow Mules! He was friendly and attentive and went over and above to help us. We found the check in / check out service to be a little slow. Overall, I would recommend this hotel without hesitation, it is just perfectly located and if you stay then say Hi to Vlatko!

This Hotel exceeded all expectations and we thoroughly enjoyed staying here. As well as being absolutely beautiful inside, the Hotel had a lovely ambience, the staff were very friendly and helpful and everything - rooms and public areas- was spotlessly clean. We very much enjoyed the bar which was very reasonably priced, and the very friendly bar tender makes the best ‘Old Fashioned’ cocktail my husband has ever had apparently! The Hotel is very well situated - 10 minutes walk maximum from the main market square where most of the bars and restaurants are situated, and even less than that to the plethora of chocolate shops! The hotel offers underground parking for £25 Euros a night.

We stayed here for 3 nights and had room 32 which was upstairs, with one window overlooking the garden and another (the bathroom) overlooking the rear street of the hotel. The room was immediately accessed from the lift (literally one step away). First impressions of the hotel in general were great - Jan Brito, converted to a hotel from a grand house in the 1990s, certainly retains its C16th feel with high ceilings and original features. The owners have taken care to maintain its unique heritage. Pluses were the location, the quietness of the hotel, pleasant staff and the size of the bedroom (much bigger than normal) & the roomy, modernised bathroom which included a shower, a separate bath and a good magnifying mirror. Both rooms had plenty of storage space. The bed was spacious, firm and had clean linen. TV had BBC 1 & 2 - a bonus abroad! Breakfast was fine with good choices of cooked and cereals/continental breads etc in lovely dining area, though the self-service area was small so I can imagine it being difficult to negotiate during busy times. Minuses in Room 32 - the shower was lukewarm and had nowhere to put soaps/shampoo so you were bending all the time (I advise taking a shower gel with a hook). The bedroom was quite dark without lights on and needed refreshing. TV straddled 2 pieces of furniture, for example, and I was worried the bathroom handle would drop off, lovely as it was! On balance, I'd definitely recommend the hotel as a place to stay but would opt for a different room. PS: Our bathroom overlooked a small cafe/bagel bar which was popular/vegan friendly & looked enticing. Handy supermarket round the corner for water etc.

We stayed here overnight during a brief visit to Bruges. We chose this hotel because the hotel was centrally located and the building itself was charmingly renovated with nice views of the city and it blended in nicely with the ambiance of the historic center. It was also very close to the tram stop from the train station. Most locations of interest are within a very short walking distance of the hotel. The staff was accomodating. The room itself was clean, quiet, and comfortable and we slept very well here. Our room did not look out over the canal but had a very very nice city view from the top floor. The room itself is small but pleasing. The breakfast was very average but satisfying. We paid €12 per person and thought it was worth no more than that. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely stay here again when in Bruges due to its central location and its charming ambiance.

I’ve recently returned from a holiday in Belgium during which I spent three nights staying at the less than impressive Ibis Brugge Centrum. Due to travelling with a friend I didn’t stay at the hotel in Bruges where I stayed when visiting the city in November 2022 and unfortunately stayed here at the Ibis instead. We arrived and checked in just after 3pm. I hadn’t been in my room long, and was just sorting out my luggage before going out, when the bedroom door was opened and a man walked in, the hotel had given my room to a second person. The man went off to reception to get a different room and I followed shortly after to complain about the error. The staff on reception were casually apologetic but told me that these kinds of errors had been happening since a new computer booking system was installed and treated the who issue as though it wasn’t a big deal. I’m aware that implementing new computer systems are never without problems, but in a hotel I would have thought that trying to ensure that the room booking system doesn’t issue a room to multiple people is a pretty basic requirement. As a woman travelling alone it is not a pleasant experience to be in a hotel room and have a stranger walk into the room, it would have been terrifying if it had happened when I had been in the shower or bed, and for the remainder of my time in Bruges I never felt relaxed when in the hotel room. After making my complaint to reception I returned to the room to find that the key card no longer worked. This happened again on my second day at the hotel after a day of sight seeing, and after my previous experience left me wondering if the room had been allocated to someone else while I was out. Even without the experience of the room being allocated to someone else I wouldn’t be planning to return to this hotel; the shower ran cold more than hot, the bed was not comfortable with the mattress feeling like it needed to be replaced, there were only two sockets in the room, one of which was partially blocked by the curtain rail (due to the room being on the top floor the ceiling sloped near the window and the curtain was weirdly hung at an angle), there was mould on the wall beneath the hooks in the bathroom and just a general need for refurbishment. My friend spent the first night in the hotel unable to sleep due to deep vibrations which she assumes were from a nearby generator. The floor was literally shaking. She changed rooms for the remaining two nights of the stay and got the impression that she wasn’t the first person to have complained about the noise problem in room 211. Positives are that the hotel is easily walkable from the train station (although you will be dragging your suitcase over cobbles) and breakfast was a reasonable spread.

The hotel is less than 2 kilometers from the train station and close to the attractions. It is quite easy to find it along Google Maps. The hotel has a nice setting and it looks like a very emotional hotel. The room we stayed on was on the first floor, so as not to walk up and down. The toilet and bathroom in the room are separated from the wet and the wet, and the sink has two basins for washing. The bed is a bit too soft, and people with low waist may feel tired after falling asleep. There are no slippers, toothbrushes and water in the room. Please pay attention to this. Basically, the rooms are relatively large, and a good hotel for a day or two, after all, the price is relatively cheap.

Hotel very well located for centre of Bruges, and a fantastic price as part of a deal. Room was a bit dated but functional, bathroom a very good size and excellent facilities. Staff very friendly and accommodating, room was very clean. Didn't spend a huge amount of time in the hotel as we were visiting attractions etc, but would happily stay here again.

We loved the Dukes Palace. We had no idea of its history but the palace structure, the layout and the large courtyard hinted at the opulent life of its former inhabitant, the Duchess of Burgundy who presided over the area in early history. It's a marvel what they had done in terms of creating beautiful rooms out of the palace space. The location was perfect, right on one of the main commercial streets in the old city center. They had elegant corridors, well-decorated spaces for informal lounging. The rooms were tastefully furnished. Breakfast was good, with an egg station. They brought coffee to you in nice porcelain containers. And interestingly, they had slabs of white, dark and milk chocolates that you could cut pieces of. This was pretty unique. All the staff were courteous and very accommodating. My wife complained of an unpleasant smell as we would come out of the hotel - but not sure what that was - cat's poop? The pillows were too large round and hard - my wife complained but they didn't have any other type.
