The Pand Hotel

My husband, adult son and I stayed in two rooms (Junior Suite category) at The Pand. We stayed in six different hotels as we traveled through Europe and The Pand was my favorite one. It is a very small hotel - just 26 rooms I believe. We were on the top floor and our two rooms were the only ones up there. It was so private! In fact, we questioned whether we were the only people staying at the hotel (of course we weren't, but it felt that way!). The hotel is decorated so lovely. Just up a few steps from the check in area is a library and bar. Everything feels like you are staying in a (very rich and cultured) friend's home rather than a hotel. The breakfast was fantastic as well. Fresh breads, the most perfectly ripened fruit and a selection of different egg dishes prepared to your liking. The staff was very friendly and accomodating. And Bruges is a gorgeous and historic city. Ten out of ten. I will definitely stay here again!

Hotel is lovely. Staff are amazing. Very relaxed atmosphere. Breakfast is good. Location is perfect with some very good restaurants very close by. Charming room is adequate, There are bigger rooms. Depends on what you want to pay. Would recommend.

What a lovely Boutique hotel! There is no other place I would want to stay in Bruge! The Charming Room was very pretty and clean. Rafael, Fleur, and Monika at the reception were wonderful and provided great recommendations for places to eat and see! Thank you to all of them! Breakfast was delicious and the lady who was in the dining room was so nice to talk to as well. Thank you so much! I hope to get back and stay one day.

We had a wonderful stay at The Pand Hotel with friends over the New Year. The hotel was perfectly placed on a quiet street, yet only yards from the heart of this beautiful city. The hotel was immaulate and offered a restful and luxurious retreat when we needed it. The decoration and furnishings were of the highest quality and the period charm shone through. The staff at the hotel were exceptional and nothing was too much trouble. They made us feel so welcome and catered for our needs perfectly. Breakfast was remarkable and a real highpoint of our stay. Our room was charming, although the bathroom was quite tight! The whole atmosphere of the hotel was relaxed and low-key. You were really made to feel at home from the moment you arrive. We will defiantly visit again and will ensure The Pand will be our destination.

We stayed for a couple nights right after Christmas for the Bruges experience and markets. Have been to Bruges many times but not at Christmas and it was absolutely beautiful. It is a boutique hotel at a great central location in a small side street from a main tourist road, so not overwhelmed by tourists outside the door. There is a lovely lounge area off reception where you could relax and enjoy the fire, a wonderful opportunity especially at Christmas. The staff were all very helpful and polite, with special note to our breakfast server who could not do enough to help but was never over bearing. Speaking of breakfast, it was wonderful and included Champagne. Do NOT miss this. We had a deluxe room which, while not huge, was cosy and well-appointed. Bathroom was excellent (though incredibly hot for some reason!) and everything was very clean. Only slight criticism of the room is the TV was small and in a silly location (but honestly, with Bruges to explore in the evening, not a big issue). Parking can be a problem with limited spaces outside the hotel but they were very helpful in listing the public car parks available to try. It took us a little while and eventually opted for large public car park available near the station which we knew was then just a pleasant walk back to the centre. This is not a hotel problem, just a fact to be aware of if, like us, you are daft enough to drive into Bruges and given the great location right in the centre. Top tip, on checking in they provided a map with a couple of suggested walks, including a longer one that takes you to the windmills. A lovely walk, especially early on a chilly, sunny morning before the town gets busy. A final, lovely touch were the chocolates and personal note on leaving. Thank you to all the staff for making it such a memorable short stay, We do not hesitate recommending the hotel, especially for a romantic getaway, and we will be back!
