The hotelier was extremely welcoming, available for all issues, very friendly and helpful across multiple languages The staircase to the family room was very steep & tricky with a large suitcase Also the pathway outside was uneven and my daughter tripped over at night Otherwise the guesthouse was wonderful. Quiet neighbourhood in walking distance of Bruges with a lovely owner

Quaint haven
This is the kind of place you visit once and then always look forward to coming again. A quiet, calm guest-house which makes you feel somehow separate from the rest of the world. The owner is very friendly, always helpful and ready to provide advice and suggestions about the city. Rooms are clean and well-equipped, breakfast always delicious. If you're looking for a place where time seems to have stopped for a while, don't hesitate.

Very Satisfied
The guest house in itself is ideal. located about 20-25 mins walk from the city centre for restaurants museums and shopping. On rainy days there are four restaurants close by and a Supermarket 5 mins walk away. Hans the owner is very personable and full of Bruges knowledge. Very good breakfast......it is difficult to find fault with this guest house.

This is a lovely guesthouse and the owners were extremely helpful and hospitable. The breakfast and personalised service were delightful and our only criticism was that in the shower water came out of both the overhead shower head and the hand held shower head but that may have been due to my lack of operating knowledge.

Fantastic older home but with updated clean & modern rooms. The host Hans makes you feel at home and helps set you up for a beneficial strategic tour of Bruges with the benefit of his long association with the town. The breakfast is fantastic also. There is a bit of a walk from the B&B to the center of town (10-15 minutes). Parking right on sight. Carrefours (Major store) right around the corner to help you address some travel necessities at some of the lowest prices around.

Gasthof Groenhove @ Brugge
This is a nice cottage sort of lodging with much local flavor. The manager is very helpful & gave us a description of the sights & F&B available in Brugge & nearby. Brugge is about 20 to 25 mins walking distance. There is a Carrefour nearby if you need to get water & groceries. Breakfast provided is very good as well.

A very nice and comfortable hotel outside the city centre, situated in a quiet garden. Very welcoming and a good breakfast. The only thing that would improve it for an English visitor would be tea and coffee making facilities in the rooms.

Perfection!
The Gasthof Groenhove is an imposing luxury establishment set in extensive grounds yet very close to the historic centre of the world's most beautiful city, Bruges.My wife and I have just had two 2-night stays and both of our rooms were of 5 star standard, the beds were both very comfortable and large and the bathrooms were superb with abundant hot water. The views from the large windows are of the immaculate gardens and it is difficult to believe the hotel is in a city. Both of our rooms were beautiful,enormous,light and peaceful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stays in this wonderful hotel!

Just out of town hotel but good for getting around
We went to Bruge for a two night stay and were made very welcome by the owner and and although we arrived in the morning and were too early to get into our rooms we were given lots of information as to how to get into town and what to see. It was about 20 mins walking into the city so we left the car and did everyone on foot. Very comfortable hotel with ample continental breakfast.

Needs a great deal of upgrading, but excellent breakfast
We chose this guest house according to most of the positive reviews I had read. We had not wanted to stay directly inside the center of Bruges, and this place was a fine location as to being a 10-15 min walk to the town. It was not the easiest to get to but that is just b/c of the traffic set-up. our room was okay, small, a bit too warm and having the window open with no screen allowed a few pesky mosquitoes in at night. The condition of the guest house interior was not very updated. For the price we paid, and the fact that it appeared to be fully booked, there could be a bit of the profit put into some upgrading of the carpet. The enclosed patio eating area was quite lovely and the breakfast served was excellent. Our hotel host was polite and friendly, but I wouldn't say he was as warm and welcoming as others described. We were wondering if it was due to being American (not to feel insecure) but he did seem to be more engaging with the other hotel guests who clearly were from other countries other than the US. Overall, we felt this was our least favorite out of all of our hotel stays while traveling to many locations throughout our 2 weeks in Europe.

Nice Room
A well maintained room with good bathroom in a nice hotel but be careful going up the stairs from the lobby as carpet is worn and could be a trip hazard. Unfortunately, we found the owner to be a little intimidating. We were disappointed with breakfast, having been told that this would be available between 08.30 and 09.30, we arrived at 08.50 and were bluntly told that there were no more eggs or croissants and we had to make do with what was left.

Friendly staff and quiet location
We were very satisfied with this B&B for our stay in Bruges. My wife and I both enjoyed the walk to the city limits (10 min) as it was quite peaceful and safe. City centre was then only another 10 minutes walk from there. The B&B owners were polite, helpful and accommodating. They answered any questions we had and provided insight into the must-sees in Bruges. Breakfast was standard and the check-in/check-out was smooth. Be sure to let them know when you'll be arriving so you know they will be there otherwise you will have to call the number they have posted.

Bring a kettle with you
Rooms were lovely, but main reception a bit shabby. Breakfast is limited so get down early before some one else eats all the pies. The Hotel doesn't supply hot drinks after breakfast so if you have been out all day make sure you take a kettle with you for a cuppa when you get back. Opening times for restaurants vary and its a good 20 min walk to the main town of Bruge so wear sensible shoes - especially on the cobbled streets. But you can always fill up on munchies from the Careforre supermarket next door to the hotel Also if you are planning to use their bikes - you cant as they have been left to be garden ornaments as apparently it is to expensive to get them serviced, bring your own.

A comfortable hotel and a friendly, helpful owner.
My fiancee and I very much enjoyed our stay at Gasthof Groenhove. The beds were comfy, the rooms had everything you would expect for a short stay, and the bathrooms were finished to a good standard with a nice hot and powerful shower. Hans, the owner, was very friendly and accommodating of our few, small queries and requests. Within a few minutes of arriving he had given us a useful run down of the main attractions of the town, marked on a map. Breakfast was tasty - a variety of bread rolls, cheeses, cereals, yoghurts and pastries, along with hot boiled eggs. The hotel is a nice, 20 minute stroll from the heart of the city, in a quiet residential area. We spent all our time in the city proper, so cannot speak for the quality of bars and restaurants in the immediate vicinity of the hotel.

Clean and friendly
Guest house/hotel about 20 mins walk from the centre of town. Hans, the proprietor is pleasant and will spend time when you first arrive to give you a map and explain where certain things to see are. The hotel is clean, and the rooms were spacious. The hotel is quiet, has pleasant gardens, and there is parking.

beautiful house in convenient location
We travelled here by car so the parking facilities were excellent. The hotel is well located being an easy 20 minute walk to the city centre.The owners were very helpful in finding us an alternative hotel as we arrived a day early. They took a lot of trouble to show us interesting places to visit in Bruges using books and maps. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious, served in an attractive conservatory. The quality of the coffee, jams, yoghurts, cereals was firstrate.

A super hotel with a first class host!
We spent a most enjoyable 4 nights at the hotel on a recent visit to Bruges. The host, Hans, was an absolute superstar and nothing was too much trouble. Upon arrival at the hotel, we were briefed by Hans and given a map of Bruges with all the must-see places marked up for us to visit. The rooms were immaculate and the whole experience, from arrival to departure, was superb. Highly recommended!

A real gem
We are a family of 5 so always tricky finding rooms to accommodate us easily. The family room here was perfect for us and our 3 young children. The staff were extremely helpful and polite. The hotel is a little away from the very centre of Brugge, but no more than a mile so a short walk is all that is needed. From memory there are only 7 rooms, so you do get a very personal service.

Typically Belgian
The Hotel is more like moving into someones home for a few days, so the decor was more typical of a Belgian house than a hotel. The outside parking area is a bit scruffy, but don't let that put you off. The welcome was wonderful, and the Hoteliers put you at your ease straight away. When we needed a fan (it was a hot couple of days) one was provided immediately. The room was spacious, clean and very comfortable. Nice shower, but the towells were a bit tatty. Breakfast was continental, and plentiful. Its a 20 minute walk into the centre of Bruge which is a fantastic City, but very expensive to eat in. Al lin all, this Hotel is ideal for anyone on a driving holiday. We would happily stay there again, which says it all really

Great Option for Bruges
We were met at the door by the owner and immediately put at ease. He got out a city map and told us how to get to the heart of town and must see places. The family friendliness, flowered grounds and spacious room all made our stay memorable. Breakfast was excellent and the coffee was strong and often refilled. We'd stay here again and suggest it to friends.
