Hostel Description

You'll enjoy a warm welcome, lots of tourist information and a delicious breakfast buffet.

The hotel is easy to reach, 10 minutes walking from the market square
plenty of free parking facility near the hotel. Why look further?

The name 'Gulden Vlies' originates from the order of knights that was founded in 1430 by Filips de Goede in Bruges.

The house was build at the beginning of the 20th century and changed into a hotel in the 80's. You can find it in a nice lane with other stately mansions.
The rooms have all been refurbished and are really nice and comfortable. We have chosen for a stylish combination of beige, aubergine and ebony wood together with antique wardrobes and a good eye for detail.
Each room has its own bathroom with shower, washstand and toilet. There is a TV and a hairdryer in every room.

The superior rooms are spacious rooms with a refurbished bathroom with bath, shower and toilet.
The superior rooms can be used as family rooms (up to 4 people).

Bruges is an open air museum. It doesn't look big on a map but there is so much to see : museums (Groeninge, Gruuthuuse, Saint John's Hospital...) offer a collection from the Middle Ages up to contemporary art.
Churches: There are at least 10 churches: eg. Church of our Lady (with white marble Michelangelo statue).
Breweries - Straffe Hendrik, with excellent beer tasting
Chocolate museum, history, demonstration and tasting of chocolate
New architecture: Concert Hall, Toyo Ito Pavilion, Coupure Bridge, Barge Bridge. Bruges didn't get stuck in history but wants to integrate modern architecture - which is a challenging task;
This and a lot more - everything in walking distance from the hotel.

Possibility to add extra beds for children

Hostel Directions

By car the easiest way is to follow the E40 until you see a sign for Brugge (exit 8). You stay on the N31 until you see a sign for Brugge (center). You're on the N351/Bevrijdingslaan . At the third lights you turn left onto the ringroad (R30) up to Ezelpoort ( one of the old entrance gates into the center over the water). The hotel is on the right side of the road.
On our side of the street there is a parkinglimit of 4 hours (from 9am to 7pm). It's best to park the car on the other side of the street where you can leave the car as long as you want for free.

If you come by train you can take bus nr. 3 or 13 up to busstop Ezelpoort. Our hotel is just diagonally across the street

Bon voyage !
