Overlooking a scenic canal, Die Swaene encapsulates the quiet romance of northern Europe. This elegant Conde Nast Traveler Gold List award-winning property resides in the intimate city of Bruges, in northwest Belgium. Select among accommodations in the historic main building, dating back to the 1400s, and those in the newer, water level Canal House wing--you'll surely want to sip your morning coffee on the terrace that hugs the canal. Begin each evening with an appetizer in the restored Guild of Tailors meeting room, and then savor a candlelight dinner in the vaulted dining room sheltered by 14th-century columns.

Nous avons passé un séjour absolument merveilleux, un personnel aux petits soins, une chambre incroyable où les petites attentions ont fait leur effet. Le sourire de la réception, les attentions du petit déjeuner, le cadre absolument magnifique, nous y reviendrons, absolument sans faute. Merci pour votre accueil. À très bientôt.

We travelled to Bruges to spend new year at die Swaene. It is a wonderful hotel in a perfect location close to the historic centre. All the staff were very friendly and so helpful in particular those working at reception and those serving breakfast. Nothing was too much trouble. The breakfast incidentally is excellent with plenty of choice and warm egg dishes made to order. Perfect. A lovely historic and quirky hotel with many period fixtures and furnishings. However, if you like your hotel to be sparse and minimal then this is not a hotel for you.

What a wonderful hotel and now my favourite in Brugee. We’ve stayed in a lot of hotels over the last 10 years in Bruges. They’ve been noisy and small. This hotel was perfect. It’s so quiet. Our room overlooked the Canal and we didn’t hear any traffic or tourists. The hotel is very well decorated and so are the rooms. Our room was very big to say we were staying in the centre of Bruges. We have two very large dogs and they were made to feel very welcome. Yes, our dogs were very well behaved, but it was nice to know our dogs were treated with so much respect and love. This is very much a pet friendly hotel. The staff couldn’t do enough for us. They were extremely welcoming, the rooms were very clean as was the rest of the hotel. The food was phenomenal and plenty of it. We’re talking high end food with freshly squeezed orange juice, scrambled eggs and crispy bacon, fresh fruit and pastries and so much more!!! Everything looked so pretty inside. We love the decor, very Bruges!!!! Thank you for the best four days we can’t wait to come and visit again Diana, Stuart and our two dogs Abbie and Patchy ❤️

I cannot fault this place. It had such a wonderful unique style, the bathroom was modern and wonderful (double sinks, hot towel rail, separate toilet, strong hot shower). One of the only places in Bruges with a sauna and swimming pool too. The staff were the highlight though - they went above and beyond for me and my partner, finding us places to eat when we arrived late at night and vegan friendly spots too. There’s parking and the breakfast was amazing with so much choice - again they really catered to us - special thanks to Lionel! Thanks for making our stay in Bruges so much more wonderful.
