Our experience at B&B next Door was excellent. Peter and his wife were very kind and friendly. Peter helped us a lot with arranging transportation and the day we left we had to leave very early and Peter made sure to leave us a delicious breakfast in our bedroom. If I had to return to Brugge I would go to B&B Next Door.

Peter was a fantastic host and could not recommend this B&B more to anyone looking to stay in Bruges for a few nights. Its a good 20 min walk from the train station but its just out of extremely busy inner core of Bruges. Beautiful Park around the corner unwind in after a long day of crowds.

Absolutely amazing place to stay. The hosts were fantastic and welcoming. They made us feel as though we were staying at a relative's house. They went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. The breakfast was delicious and plentiful. The location couldn't have been better. Its a quiet street and the center of town is only a 7 minute walk. Overall i would recommend this place to anyone.

Fantastic place, with a nice room, and a convenient location for exploring the city (very close to the centre of tourism, but just outside the zone of crowds). The host was very friendly and extremely informative. The breakfasts were lovely, too.

Fantastic location and wonderful hosts
We drove from the UK, the hotel was easy to find, we parked the car and unloaded our suitcases and then parked in an underground car park which cost 14 euros per day. In hindsight we could have parked for free on the ring road which was close by. This is a fantastic place to stay, Pieter and his wife are lovely welcoming people who can not do enough for you. Our room was very spacious, clean and comfortable. You could not fault the breakfast, lots of choice and more than enough. The only thing I would say is our room was quite hot at night and a fan would have been very much appreciated

Such a friendly family run this hotel, they provided lots of tips on where to go & how to get places. Really excellent breakfast. A million miles from your average monotonous chain hotel. They could not have done more for us.

Peter was an excellent host and this place made our Bruges experience. Breakfasts potentially the best I've had in Any hotel. Room was comfy and had everything you need. Location also ideal, a short walk sees you in the thick of it in about 5-10 mins.

A great place to stay
We stayed in the Master Suite - a large room, nicely furnished and with a comfortable bed. The bathroom is next door (along your own corridor) with a walk in shower and large bath. The provision of bathrobes and slippers is a welcome touch. Outside of your own suite you can climb a flights of stairs to access a small kitchen area with free tea and coffee. Pieter is the perfect host - welcoming and around just enough at breakfast to ensure you have enough tea/coffee and food but never invading your privacy. Would highly recommend (with the exception of those who might have mobility problems - the stairs are very steep).

This is more of a small boutique hotel than a B & B. Our room was very clean and spacious and the bed was extremely comfortable. It is only a short walk to the centre of Bruges and there are several restaurants in the vicinity. The owner is very pleasant and helpful. Definitely would stay again.

Great location. Very nice breakfast room with good spread of food should meet most tastes. Parking can be a challenge in Bruges. Pieter provided some tips beforehand but it is can help to look at a map to identify the in-city parking. Still the outer ring road is very close and has free parking which was what Pieter recommended when we arrived. Know that payment in cash is required.

Great stay in Bruges
We had a lovely time at B&B Next Door in Bruges. The owners were very nice, polite, helpful and friendly. The B&B is in the perfect location for visiting the city; we often nipped back to our room to drop shopping off as it was so close, before nipping back out again. Our room was the master suite; a spacious room with a comfy bed, settee, multiple mirrors, TV (which switches on by the tiny faint marking at the bottom of it) table and chair and plenty of storage space (not so much in the way of hanging clothes, however). The bathroom too was spacious with a separate bath and shower. The breakfast is tasty with a range of continental options. The only let down was having noisy neighbours in the room above!

The bed and pillows were a bit firm for us but this appeared to be a theme in Europe. Overall extremely happy with our stay. The owner was very quick to respond and made us feel very welcome. They even made us a special breakfast as we departed well before breakfast started. I would highly recommend staying here.
