Brugge Hotel

Hotel is in an amazing area! So close to everything.Safe and beautiful block. Beds are comfy No persons at front desk after 6:00 pm Rooms are small, but we never care because we are never in our room except to sleep. Cleaning lady knocked on our door at 9:30 am to clean room which is fine but there was so much dust balls under our bed that it came out from under our bed. Maybe they should try dusting the rooms better especially under the bed. Hotel is a no frills hotel.Area of hotel perfection.

I want to say that this is a lovely little hotel. Room was small and clean - breakfast bar was lovely and staff were helpful. However I am rating at a 2 because what we didn't know is that it backs up to a club that is open from 10pm - 4am and we could hear the music loud and clear and the DJ speaking. It was aweful and we did not get any rest. This alone is why I am rating it at a 2. Our room did face the back of the property and maybe the front facing rooms are different but be aware. It made our short stay in Bruges disappointing.

Clean and simple hotel, we stayed one night, all staff were lovely, room was basic but with everything we needed. No noise from other rooms and on a quiet street with cheap parking just down the road by the library.

As soon as I made the booking, the hotel staff contacted us to ask our time of arrival. As we were arriving after the reception was closed we were informed how we could get access to the the hotel and our room with access code, which worked with no issues - they even send us instructions with pictures which was very helpful! The room was good, comfortable and clean. The hotel also has storage to leave the luggage before/after the check in/check out, however this service doesn't work 24h - the staff was very friendly and came up with an alternative that suited us. I would highly recommend Hotel Marcel and would stay there again the next time we visit Bruges.
