Reviews of B&B Barabas

We enjoyed our stay. The place is breathtakingly beautiful with nice views. The rooms are nice and clean. Smell, good and well arranged. The breakfast was nice, too. We were 7, 4 kids, and 3 adults.

“This was, without question, one of the finest stays I’ve experienced in Bruges. From the moment of booking, the communication was seamless, with clear instructions that made arrival effortless. Once there, the hosts went above and beyond, offering thoughtful recommendations that helped us experience the city like locals. The rooms themselves were exquisite—tastefully designed, comfortable, and full of character. While Bruges offers no shortage of luxury accommodations, few manage to combine charm, comfort, and genuine hospitality as effortlessly as this property.”

Nothing. Perfect

Wonderful place in the middle of Brugge. Everything is walkable. The host Bert is very nice and the backyard and the breakfast are awesome! The rooms are very stylish. We can 100% recommend this B&B and will definitley come back next time in Brugge.

Since it is an old house, it can be a bit noisey, which dind't bother us, but if you are sensitiv to that, you habe to be aware of it.

Rooms were well equipped with everything Ie shower gell, shampoo beds comfortable. Coffee machine and a selection of teas in room. The breakfast is exceptional. Served like an afternoon tea, a wide selection of meats, cheese, croissants, and breads. Homemade yoghurt and eggs are also freshly cooked with bacon or smoked salmon. The b and b have an honesty bar where you can help yourself and write down if you use anything. There is a courtyard or lounge area available to use. Bert and Hilda were both very good hosts and seemed like nothing was too much trouble. Thank you for a lovely stay.

All good.

A beautiful property in a good location. Great breakfast included. Proprietor was very accommodating handling our luggage.

It’s a very old building and the stairs are steep. If you need the ground floor unit, there is one.

Amazing location and attention to detail

Absolutely nothing

Lovely large room Personal breakfast service in the Garden on the canal. In the evening this was available for relaxing drinks

A suggestion The location is on a cul de sac right in the middle of town. Understandably there is no parking available nearby. That is part of the charm. The parking is some distance away. This is not a complaint but is a reality. Having walked the area, we wondered however if there might be some Bag drop off advice to save most of the fairly long walk from the car park dragging the cases over cobbles. This could prove a challenge but for those who dare to try, some instructions including perhaps a detailed map to navigate the one-way streets would be very useful.

We booked the family room for 6 and it was perfect! The breakfast was amazing, location was great and hotel staff were very helpful. Highly recommend!

Perfect location, super cute, great breakfast and fantastic host.

In the attic room there is a beam that if you are barely six feet tall you can hit your head on. Perhaps a bright stripe, a piece of foam or both would help.

Position, rooms.

The replacement breakfast staff, were variable.

Excellent location and beautiful setting.

The property is beautiful. The rooms are extremely comfortable. The staff are exceptional. The breakfast is particularly delicious and presented elegantly.

Nothing. It surpassed our high expectations.

Absolutely stunning location! The breakfast on the canal patio was certainly a highlight...fantastic selection and service! The honor bar was helpful but would also reco adding a small fridge to rooms so if you grab a bottle of wine you can keep it cold! Staff were generally great but had a few hiccups during our stay.

Our A/C wasn't working for the first day and a half of our visit. They were able to scramble and get it fixed by day 2 which was appreciated. They provide laundry services but word to the wise - make sure to give them 24 hrs. We didn't realize that (and they didn't mention it) and handed ours over at 6pm when we were checking out the next day at 10am. The morning of checkout we waited an extra hour for the clothing to dry but it was still very damp when we needed to leave. Ended up needing to spend another 20 euro to dry them all at a laundromat on the way to our next stop. We understand that things happen but would have appreciated if the laundry fee was waived or some of our honor bar items were comped to make up for the inconvenience of the A/C issue and the partial laundry service provided.

Fabulous location in Bruges. Good communication with owner. Breakfast lovely. Enjoyed homemade yogurt with view of beautiful canal. Friendly staff. Stayed in the two separate Attic rooms upstairs, we thought they were connected but they are separate, which was fine for us. Stairs steep if carrying a lot of luggage, but worth it as attic rooms are stunning and very tastefully refurbished. The washing machine is communal and in use mostly by the B&B, but staff were helpful in folding my laundry when it was finished. Would love to come back and see it fully finished. There were workmen onsite, so probably won’t take long to finish.

We only booked one night 😏 Although the rooms are beautifully modernised they weren’t quite finished. My kids room didn’t have lighting in the shower or toilet, just wires sticking out. In our room there was a terrible smell coming from the drain in the shower that smelt like cabbage. Owner kindly offered to let us change room, but it was late, we had already taken all of our luggage up the steep stairs and settled in. We ran the shower and the smell got a little better. The overhead shower head had virtually no water coming from it, it was a trickle so used the hand shower which was lovely and powerful. (Probably just teething problems.) The air con unit had all exposed wiring, not yet finished and some skirting board off. Probably shouldn’t allow anyone to stay here until it’s finished, but glad they did as it’s still beautiful. We blocked that of the room off with our bags so our dog couldn’t hurt herself.

Location excellent..room large, bed exceptional and breakfast super!

The location was excellent, breakfast was fabulous outside along the canal. Loved the traditional feel of the place. Also highly recommend Bert’s other business Sansaveria for out of this world bagels. Very grateful to have air conditioning due to the heat.

Just a note for those with mobility issues, our room in the attic had a very narrow step stair case to climb. Totally fine for us but a note to request downstairs if any issues with stairs.

The B&B location, the view, the breakfast! That breakfast was so exceptional, I was pleasantly surprised when we were led into the breakfast room, and what waited for us there was an amazing spread of breakfast items. Their homemade yogurt was so good! And I enjoyed the hospitality.

Nothing! Would come back to Bruges again and this is where I would stay!

Beautiful, spacious, the most comfortable beds and absolutely delicious breakfast.

It exudes charm and is near everything. The AC was a wonderful touch. Bert’s canal side breakfasts will be remembered as some of the best memories of our trip.
