Reviews of Velotel Brugge 4 stars

Really well geared up for cycling, good location

The room was comfortable, clean and quiet and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Good location although I'd have preferred to be more central. Plenty of parking and easy to find.

The room was huge and modernly furnished – with a drawing of Freddie Mercury singing 'Bicycle' in the toilet. :-D The beds were super comfortable and the breakfast buffet was huge and very tasty. You can park in a parking garage or simply right in front of the hotel on the street. The surroundings were very quiet and safe. However, the city center of Bruges is about a 40–45 minute walk away.

The staff member at the reception told me that in Bruges you can only park in the (quite expensive) parking garages. After doing some research online – unfortunately only the next day – I found out that you can actually park in the historic center (1€ for 30min/18€ for 4h) and even for free for up to 4 hours with a parking disc, just outside the core historic area (blue zone). This would have saved me a 1 hour 20 minute walk the day before, but exercise is good anyway. ;-)

The hotel is themed as a bicycle property. It is a bit outside of the city center, but you can rent bikes in case needed. There is free parking, which is very convenient when you come by car. If we had come by airplane, we might have chosen a place closer to the city center. But for travelling by car or if you come there for bicycle routes the hotel is very convenient. The restaurant is also decent. Just remember you will have to book table in advance.

In general the hotel completely lived up to what it promises. They only thing we were a bit disappointed about was that unless you book a table, the only food you can get is the tapas food.

Pleasant old fashioned hotel

Facilities

The staff were very helpful and friendly, free parking lots were available. They brought the baby’s crib within 5 minutes and it was very nice and clean.

Great cycling themed hotel with great secure bike storage. Great taxi service to and from town too. Great breakfast.

Nothing

Rooms and staff !

All was great

I loved the cycling theme of it the hotel - obvious by the name - but the homeage to past Tour De France riders, small bike touches reflected in the furniture and art. Staff were very friendly. Location was good, most people cycled into the centre of Brugge but it was only a 40 minute stroll into town.

Parking was a bit tight - inside parking you have to pay and then outdoors is free - but gets very busy.

Good hotel set up well for cyclist. The hotel has numerous maps of routes aroung bruges which helped us make the most of our short stay. Hotel is located out of main centre but is walkable to the centre. We intend to return again in the future

Everything was fine 🙂

Peaceful surroundings, modern rooms, nice matresses, tasty breakfast and a very good guidence to where to go and where to eat.

The room we had was a little small and the extra bed for our daughter had a less good matress.

Staff was friendly and helpful. Restaurant staff were very accommodating. Cost was very reasonable. Free and easy parking. Room was very clean, though somewhat dated decor. Nice breakfast!

View from bedroom was directly across occupied apartments.
