B&B Royal Swans - Adults-Only Boutique Stay in Bruges

Beautiful & historic Nothing - it was great!

Quaintness, wonderful owner. She was most delightful and helpful. Delicious food. Very clean. Great location. Definitely a favorite.

Our themed room was beautifully detailed as if we stepped into a wealthy home of long ago, yet with all the creature comforts of today! We chose our breakfast each night including home baked Breads, jams, and granola, and it was delivered outside our door at the time we chose on a quaint trolley with accouterments reminiscent of a high tea in a luxurious hotel. Much much more than a simple breakfast! Each afternoon we were surprised with a deli’s homemade baked sweet too! Any drink we could imagine was stocked in our mini fridge and of course we could make our coffee and tea served in gorgeous china cups. We loved everything from the dried rosebud atop of face pads in a silver container to a kitchenette secreted in an antique wardrobe!

Griet and Maarten are exceptionally kind, helpful and generous hosts and provided a comfortable, cozy home base for our 6 night stay in Bruges. Their B&B is located in a quiet residential area about 15 min walk from town center. There is much to see in Bruges and beyond. After busy days of walking and exploring, we were happy to return to the Royal Swans which honestly seemed like home and there was always a delicious baked treat awaiting us! Having breakfast quietly wheeled to us on a trolley and left outside our door was convenient, a relaxing way to start the day and enjoy Maarten’s always delicious breakfasts. Nothing

Comfortable, well appointed, with a wonderful breakfast. Griet and Maarten were excellent hosts. We enjoyed the breakfast, the attention to history in the room and with the lovely overview Griet gave us. We were .7 miles from city center, very easy to walk. We were 1 mile from the train station, and very close to a walking/running/biking path. We used several of the recommendations for restaurants and sites to see from our hosts and were very pleased. Nothing - it was all lovely

Hosts were amazing, they gave us every care and attention, nothing was too much trouble. The room was wonderful and breakfast was terrific. It would have been nice to have a shorter walk home

A beautiful room with very unusual touches like the gorgeous stained glass bathroom window. Super comfortable bed and breakfast was fantastic. We both really liked having tea and coffee facilities in the room I liked it all!

Griet and Maarten were fantastic hosts! When we arrived, they gave us a small tour and pointed us towards local events we may wish to check out. The breakfast is quite good (especially the pain au chocolat). The location is also nearby to both a bus station and within short walking distance of the city center. I would recommend Royal Swans to anyone looking to experience Bruges.

An excellent stay, Griet and Martaan were very kind and provided tasty gifts each day, as well as a wonderful breakfast. The room was very comfortable and in a good location to explore the city.

Location was perfect, hosts were friendly and knowledgeable. Our room was beautiful, decorated with a Christmas tree also, which we appreciated! and our bed was so comfortable. Breakfast each morning was delicious and the little details were very thoughtful. Nothing, we'd definitely visit Bruges and Royals Swans B&B again.

The host Griet was absolutely fantastic, she made us feel so welcome with homemade treats each day and went into a huge amount of depth on what there is to do in Bruges and even the history of the city. The facilities are lovely and the decor is warm and beautiful. Breakfast was superb offering a wide selection and fresh high quality ingredients. The bed and bathroom were excellent. Thank you so much for having us and making our trip extra special! It is a little further out from the historic centre but still very much within walking distance.

Really lovely little B&B. Just outside the old city boundary so easy to walk everywhere and also easy to get the bus from the station. There was a varied spread for breakfast but we also go cake both afternoons as well! The owners also offered us an early check in and provided us with a balloon and extra pancakes one morning for our wedding anniversary. Everything was excellent. Some travellers from the UK may prefer more cooked options for breakfast.

Lots of character and comfortable. The hosts are lovely and bring breakfast to your room every morning. I am coeliac so needed gluten free food and they catered for me perfectly. My friend required an accessible room and she was able to get in and out with no issues. Was a bit chilly at night

Waiting for us in the room. Definitely recommend when visiting the enchanting city of Bruges. Nothing

Superb

It was a short, pleasant walk into the city so location was perfect. It was very close to the main park and Medieval gates. The room was very quirky with an amazingly decorated wall that disguised both the bathroom and kitchen area. Yhe bathroom was a large, fully accessible wetroom. The host was extremely welcoming, giving us home made delicacies each day and the breakfasts were delivered to our room as per our order from a wide selection, again including homemade items. We were given a map and extensive suggestions what to visit, including much local history knowledge. It was definitely a stay to remember for accommodation, but Bruges captivated us, being beautiful with a great vibe, lovely bars and great food. The Belgian beers and chocolates are a must. Nothing!

We have stayed in hotels and B&B's all over the world - literally -but we have NEVER been met with a such a warm and informative welcome. Griet and her husband could not have been better hosts, their attention to detail, however small, never ceased to surprise and impress. The little touches were too numerous to mention here, suffice to say, our stay was memorable - for all the right reasons! This is NOT something that WE disliked, in fact it suited us perfectly well BUT it might not suit everybody. There is no dining room on the premises, so your breakfast selection - ordered the previous day - is delivered on a trolley outside of your room, at the time you requested. In our room was a microwave, toaster, kettle and all the necessary for making tea and coffee, so you don't have to worry about your breakfast going cold if you decide to sleep-in.

Every thing, from the moment we were greeted by our host at the front door to the moment we left they could not have been any more helpful. Our breakfast was outside our door at the right time (all fresh and very tasty) our bed was made for us and on our return from our days adventure there was fresh cake in the room. nothing loved it all
