There's absolutely nothing not to like about Hidden Gem. It is spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, has comfy beds and even a fridge with a small selection of beverages should you get thirsty at inconvenient hours. Katrien received us personally, greeted us like we were old friends, and was generally very helpful. She gave us tips and directions, even had prepared a little map with the key features of Bruges. She even knew where to find the stop for the Flix Bus! :-D It's a shame we were only staying for one night as the property itself is so beautiful. We'll definitely be coming back for a longer stay. Hidden Gem is located literally opposite the main station in a small side road, but you can't hear a thing - no traffic, no trains, no people. A dream!

Absolutely nothing to dislike

Staying here at Hidden Gem was no different to booking a room in a hotel. However this room and facilities surpassed a five star experience in that the host Katrien welcomed us upon arrival and proceeded to book us a table at her favourite restaurant for that evening. There was everything you needed in the room and wonderful little personal touches are available that went above and beyond any hotel or apartment I have ever been to. The host and lodgings are exceptional, and it is a short walk to the centre of Bruges.

Stayed here for 3 nights in Bruges. Great offroad secure parking. Location was great, not far from the centre, just a short nice short stroll into historic Bruges. We didn't need it but it was also very close to the bus/train station if you are arriving that way. Lovely room with Aircon, Nespresso coffee machine (with pods provided) and all you could need along with lovely helpful hosts. Would definitely use again.

Perfect for our couple of days in Brugge. Safe parking and right by station, but by canal and nice short stroll straight into historic town. Private comfortable room with heating and Aircon. All spotless.

Nothing to speak of, wish I could have stayed longer.

From the moment we walked in, as had a lovely handwritten sign on the wall welcoming us & directing us toward our room, was very cute to say the least. We had welcome coffees waiting for us at the Nespresso machine included which was a welcome touch indeed! It felt like a home as soon as we walked in, with a lovely garden view backing onto some forestry and a small canal. Our host was very informative, helpful regarding the roadworks & very quick to respond to me & most of all, warm and friendly!

It must be noted that contrary to the Booking.com description, this is NOT a bed and breakfast. Breakfast is not offered. This point was not noted until I paid, the non-refundable fee. It would be better to know this from the description so you can properly compare prices with other venues that are proper bed and breakfasts. We walked into the town to find a place for breakfast. The room was chilly when we got up at 7am, radiators were cold. The heat came on at 8am but for early risers at it being December , it made for a chilly start.

The location was perfect for walking into town. It was lovely to be able to leave our car on the driveway in this residential neighbourhood including on our day of departure. That was very much appreciated. The room was spacious and nicely decorated. The tea and coffee was a lovely welcome. The room is nicely separated from the rest of the home. You enter via the hallway but then enter through a door to a private hallway containing the toilet, shower room and bedroom.

Room was slight small but not much different from what we have found throughout Europe. Ok for two people.

Right down the street from the train and bus station. You can walk, even with your bags. Fairly near to the city center. You can walk or bus it into the historic areas easily

Mosquitoes given its location to the canal, but room has repellent plug. Will definitely return for the Christmas markets.

Very comfortable, clean and local to the train station (4 minutes walk) and historical centre (15 minute walk). Beautiful gardens in a quiet area. The hosts were warm and welcoming. The modern facilities had a nice touch from the host, with attention to detail.

This really was a hidden gem! Katrien has thought of everything and the little details make this a wonderful place to stay. Spotlessly clean, the room was comfortable and close to the centre of Bruges, enabling us to easily walk in to see all the sights. Communication was easy and good, and the car parking space was really useful. Thank you so much for the free fridge magnet - a really thoughtful little gift as a reminder of our visit.

Nothing negative during our stay.

The park place inside the house is very practical. Arrival very well organised by our hosts with a warm welcome and small kindnesses. The centre of Bruges is just at 15 minutes walking and the way to go is very pleasant. Very beautiful garden view from the room. Very calm, not a single noise at night. In short: a must-do to for visiting Bruges.

We liked everything: the host is very friendly, the room is great with a very comfortable big bed, bathroom is big and very well furbished, everything is spotlessly clean, free coffee (we got extra) and location is perfect: quiet street not 10 minutes away from city center. Oh yes, and it has a free parking!

Great location for catching the train. Directions to the property were clear and easy to follow. The accomodation was lovely, very clean and comfortable. Only stayed one night as catching the train to Germany the next day. Would definitely recommend staying here.

The pillows were firm. We would have preferred softer ones, though this is a personal preference.

Great location near the station. Attentive hosts. Lovely outdoor space. Separate shower and toilet increased flexibility of use.

There is nothing I did not like about this place.

This little studio was perfect for what I needed. It was bright and cheery with a view of the back garden and lots of little extra touches. It is very close to the train station where there is a free shuttle into the center of Brugge.
