Hotel Albert I

Breakfasts were totally superb! Exceeded expectations considerably. Location is very good for arriving by car- right next to huge underground parking. It is also right outside the old part of town: close enough and no need to navigate narrow crowded streets. If you are visiting the concert hall definitely recommend to stay in this hotel. We stayed in the family room- perfect choice for 2 adults and 2 small kids. With 2 separate toilets we didn’t disturb each other sleep.

Room was modern, large bed, best use of space, modern bathroom and AC. TV and coffee/Tea making facilitis, USB chargers. Location was literally 5 minutes walk into Brugges, 10 minute walk to the train station and free shuttle bus at the door. The breakfast was excellent choice of cereals, bread, cheese, meats, eggs, spreads, coffee, tea and juice.staff were fantastic, helpful, made you feel welcome, happy to chat and engage, very attentive. Parking underground nearby - 3 minute walk with case to the hotel. Parking was 16 euro a day, alternatively parking was available at the train station at 5 euro a day with free bus travel. We chose to pay extra secure car park and close to the hotel. Access to more than Brugge, we took a train Brussels and shopped till we dropped and a mere 58 euro return for 2 and we also went to Ghent on the train as well took in the ahops and sights. Anyway about the hotel and staff, location and facilities - FANTASTIC!!! Christine was great offering advice on where ro go etc and the owners mum also helped at breakfast.

The room was exceptionally clean, and the staff was very accommodating. The room overlooked the bus station on the street in front of us so there was some noise, but by shutting the windows, the noise level was cut down considerably. The breakfast served in the morning was delightful and consisted of hard rolls, several selections of meat and cheese and choices of yogurt and fruit.

-Breakfast was amazing! The ladies are so nice and kind :) Because is not buffet, they ask you what do you prefer. Eggs, cereal, juices, tea, coffee, etc. They are very generous with the bread (many types! ---> Croissants, brown bread, white bread, etc ), Fruit salad, different types of cheese and ham. -We were 4, we asked for a large bed and 2 individual and we got what we asked :) -There's air-conditioning, TV, coffee/tea maker... I just missed a small frigo bar :) -The location is very central (in front of the bust station) what makes things a bit difficult when you came by car and with lots of luggage. Around the hotel the streets are only allowed for public transport. A good solution is to park at the Train Station parking (around 6 euro for 2 nights), it's safe and cheap (10 min walking). -For sure we will back to this hotel in the future !!!

The location was great. Easy, pleasant walk from train station, even in the rain. (Once we arrived, they had umbrellas we could borrow). The neighborhood was safe and convenient. Located on a large square, and just on the other side of the square were the streets of the old town. So convenient. We were even more happily surprised to find that the next day was market day at the square, so we bought something and could take it right back to our room. The following day we happened upon a cute holiday show for kids on a stage in the square. The hotel has the vibe of a warm, friendly, family-run B&B. The gentleman at the front desk was kind and helpful. He helped us carry our bags up the steps and made a dinner reservation for us at a restaurant. The breakfast room was quaint and we were served by a sweet lady who brought us trays of goodies, as well as eggs cooked to order. Good coffee. Plenty of food and friendly personal service. Our room was nice, bathroom was nice. Quiet and comfortable.
