Top hotels in Sint-Anna Quarter

Canalview Hotel Ter Reien
The hotel's location was good, a little far from the city center, but walkable. The room was nice, with a great view of the canal. By American standards the room was cool, set at 68, but the duvet was more than enough to keep warm. The breakfast was very good.

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 ...

ibis budget Brugge Centrum Station
Room was clean with shower cubicle in the room and separate toilet. Hand soap and shower gel was provided along with hand and shower towels. If driving then park on the upper floor of the station car park as it is easier to go to the hotel. The market square is 20 mins walk away from the hotel.
