Pros:

Wat een fantastisch hotel! De locatie is perfect, de bedden slapen heerlijk en het ontbijt is écht genieten. Het enige minpuntje vond ik het douchen in bad—ik geef zelf de voorkeur aan een (inloop)douche met een grote stortdouche. Maar eerlijk is eerlijk: de badkamer was verder vlekkeloos schoon, net als de slaapkamer, en dat is uiteindelijk waar het om draait. Absoluut een aanrader!

Albergo che sembra arredato da Wes Anderson a Amsterdam
Pros:

Albergo ci. Arredo art deco molto stiloso fuori dal centro ma con mezzi a un minuto comodissimi
Ottima colazione e ristorante

Cons:

Inizialmente ci hanno dato una stanza che non corrispondeva a quella prenotata ma dopo le rimostranze hanno subito risolto cambiandoci camera e facendoci anche un up grade

Superbe hôtel au centre de bruges
Pros:

La décoration et la situation centrale pour un prix adapté.

Cons:

Les indications pour réserver le parking. Mieux proposer le parking situé à 10mn à pieds pour environ 14 euros les 48 heures.
Le bruit des voisins de la chambre au dessus. Ajouter un socle pour valise.

Ok but could probably do better overall
Pros:

Excellent location, very nice and clean

Cons:

The bed is too soft and pillows too hard, so body is lower than the head. Had neck ache all week. Bathroom light goes on automatically and is incredibly bright even in the middle of the night. Staff came in bedroom even with do not disturb sign. And the gym is absolutely horrible and not aired.

Pros:

La ubicación es magnífica para visitar la ciudad. El personal muy atento y la habitación limpia y cómoda. No está muy actualizada, pero está todo cuidado.

Cons:

Es difícil llegar en coche por las restricciones de la zona de bajas emisiones. Aunque nos dieron indicaciones no lo conseguimos y aparcamos en una zona azul cercana.
