A wonderful hotel with lovely character and a lovely lady to match- very helpful with suggestions for Bruges and it was in a lovely, easy location to walk around all the sights. A nice continental breakfast with fresh orange juice.

Really nice hotel, we’ll maintained and staff were very friendly.

An excellent hotel in a historic building close to Bruges Market Square. Thoroughly decent buffet breakfast and friendly very helpful owners.

Excellent service, friendly knowledgeable staff. Perfect central location. Continental breakfast with a lot of variety, fresh fruit each morning, cheeses, cold meats, pate etc.

A very well situated hotel for exploring Bruges.In a very old ,what was once I would imagine a private residence.The front is a shop and the hotel is above and behind the shop,which only lends to its charm.Our bedroom was clean and comfortable with a generous sized en-suite,and it seemed newly decorated.A good choice at breakfast which included freshly squeezed orange juice.excellent coffee and fresh fruit.Madame who ran the hotel was a delight.This will be our first choice next time.

Hotel Alegria is in a wonderful location just 2 mins from the centre of Bruge. I stayed in 2 rooms and would suggest the back with the view of the old buildings is preferable, but the front of the hotel is just as comfy. The breakfast is great, and Veronique goes out of her way to make your stay a memorable one.

The owners of this 16 room hotel live onsite and treat their guests like family. When (not if) we stay there again we will opt for a larger room. Overall, a lovely experience.

Hotel location was excellent - very close to the square. We were warmly greeted and room was good - bed very comfortable.

Lovely hotel,great location, excellent breakfast and helpful host. Perfect!

Perfect location, charming garden that we used to visit with our Belgian relatives, and a good breakfast. The bathroom was up to date and the bedroom was tight but who stays in the bedroom when in Bruges?

Great location, fun host and nicely decorated with a high standard! NO AC but a fan in the room, missed that info myself when I booked the room.. (own fault)

We loved our stay at Hotel Alegria. Wish the sign for the hotel would have been at little easier to see, we drove past it twice before we saw the sign on the window. A van was parked in front of it and we could not see the writing and the traffic and people in the area make it difficult to slow down and look closely.

Great hotel, very central and convenient for all the attractions. Friendly staff, excellent breakfast which included freshly squeezed orange juice brought to your table by the owner which was a nice touch. Clean and comfortable. Given plenty of information on arrival including a loyalty type card which can give you discount in restaurants and attractions. Bike hire available from local hotel. Bus/train station 15 mins walk or 3 Euros.

Bruges is a beautiful city and Hotel Alegria is a perfect place to base yourself. It is a few steps to the market square and the world famous Belfry, yet it is quiet and peaceful. Our double room over-looked the small garden and the Unesco tower, amongst a higgledy piggledy selection of red tiled rooves making up a typical Brugean scene. The room was immaculate, and the owner could not have been more friendly and helpful. Breakfast was fresh bread and pastries, cheese, ham, fruit and yoghurt, delicious jam and freshly squeezed orange juice - more than enough to sustain us for a leisurely walk around the sights of the town.

The hotel is so close to the Markt but not noisy at night. The location is perfect for exploring the whole town on foot. Veronique was extremely welcoming, helpful and friendly. We were 3 in a room but the room was not cramped. A very comfortable stay. I will definitely stay here again next time I’m in Bruges.

The stay was wonderful, what a nice place... I will be back! You can not match the attention to detail the owner gives to each family. She takes care of everything from food preferences all the way to coming out to the street to say goodbye when you are leaving. The entire place was supper clean and the location is excellent, just a few meters from the main attractions. More than a simple hotel visit, it really made you feel at home.... thanks

A mixture of strengths and weaknesses. On the positive side, the hotel is well located near the main square, but has no Brugge atmosphere as such. The room was clean with a well equipped bathroom (though no bath - shower only). Breakfast was weak for the following reasons :- (1) The fresh orange juice that some reviewers have mentioned is there, but is not on the buffet table. One is handed a glass with 1 inch (2.5cm) of orange juice in the bottom - I'm not joking! (2) The buffet table is far too small for the number of guests staying in the hotel. This both restricts the amount of food items available and also makes it difficult to access. (3) Regarding eggs, there is the following notice "Eggs are only available on request...and with patience please". I interpreted this as "Please don't ask for an egg". Looking around, that's how everyone else had interpreted it. (4) Pastries all gone 1/4 hour before stated end of breakfast time. The breakfast offering gives the impression that the hotel is trying to keep food costs to a minimum and this together with having to pay on arrival means that the concept of hospitality has been subordinated to the purpose of revenue collection and maximization. One understands that a hotel is a business, but there is a better balance to be struck here. Back on the positives, the staff were very helpful in giving directions.

This is one of the best receptions we had from our European tour. The owners were very helpful explaining all about Bruge and gave us discount cards for local event. They were very knowledgeable about the whole area and very interesting to talk to. We will definitely use this Hotel again on our next visit.
