B&B Alphabet - Luxury Guesthouse and Art Gallery

Wonderfull owners, great big room with large bathtub in separate room. Delicious homemade breakfast. Central location. We got lots of usefull information about Brugge from the owner. High recommened!

Nothing.

The room was super. Breakfast excellent and the hosts welcoming and friendly.

Nothing. Rarely has a trip ticked so many boxes.

This B&B is a little gem. The location is perfect: on a quiet street at a walkable distance from the train station and very close to the historic center. Our room was lovely, spacious with a stunning view of the garden and the church. The bed was one of the best we have ever slept on with a high quality linen. The bathroom was unbelievably spacious with a huge bathtub, fantastic walk-in shower, and well-lit sink with mirrors. We've traveled a lot but have never seen a bathroom of this gigantic size. It is more like a big second room. We kept our luggage there. The WC is in a separate little room hidden away at the far end of the bathroom, so there is a lot of privacy. Breakfast on the glassed-in terrace was delicious and beautifully presented. Our hosts Annick and Michel were delightful. Annick is a licensed tour guide. Her tours are excellent and at a reasonable price. We had a 2-hour walking tour with her and it gave us a good base to explore the town.

There was nothing that we didn't like about this accommodation. We highly recommend it.

excellent breakfast , the owners were very nice and helpful , very clean place , excellent breakfast

Annick was absolutely wonderful! We were travelling whilst I was six months pregnant and she couldn’t do enough for us - the breakfast was fantastic, the beds were beautifully made every day and her history tour (and knowledge of the local area in general) was wonderful!

The best stay ever. We stayed a week and every day was a treat, the room was luxurious and tasteful, it had a big bathroom with bath and shower. The view was beautiful on the gardens and a church. The breakfast was a treat, linnen table cloths, with freshly cut fruit and the best cheeses from the farmers nearby. The hosts Annick and Michel are the kindest people you can imagine. We had a wonderful week.

It was perfect!

Had a wonderful stay at B&B Alphabet in Bruges. The room was clean and comfortable, the property was beautiful, and breakfast was delicious. The host was super helpful with great local recommendations. Highly recommend!

Our room was spacious and comfortable, with a view onto the garden and the church spire. The host was very welcoming and knowledgeable. She gave us lots of useful tips on places to go and things to do in the city. The breakfasts were excellent, with fresh fruit and and choices of eggs, ham, cheese and homemade preserves. The location was quiet, yet very near to main visitor attractions and several good local restaurants. We really enjoyed our stay and would strongly recommend this property.

There was nothing that we didn't like about this accomodation. We stayed for three nights and would happily return if we visit the city again.

The location is fantastic, very close to the old centre. There was convenient parking nearby. Our room, the king suite, was spacious and pleasant, with a lovely view towards the Church of Our Lady. The breakfast was generous and delicious, with a fine selection of breads, meats and cheeses, fresh fruit and yogurt that started our days in Bruges very well. Our host, Annick, was pleasant and helpful with a good insight into the long history of her beautiful city. We would highly recommend this property.

Nothing - all good!

Annick and Michel were wonderful hosts and made our stay delightful. They did their best to anticipate and accommodate all of our needs. We enjoyed our morning conversations with them over a delicious breakfast. The room was very nice and the bathroom was unbelievably spacious. We would highly recommend Annick and Michel’s B&B to anyone visiting Bruges.

A beautiful bright, spacious and large room of high quality standard. The bathroom was enormous and well appointed with shower, centre room bath and 2 separated basins/ mirrors. Great location. Fantastic breakfast with local products. Our host was very attentive, friendly and helpful in offering local advice.

We loved everything about our stay at Alphabet B&B. Annick and Michel were wonderful hosts and made our stay in Bruges more rich. They shared their knowledge of the area and gave us wonderful travel tips. The room was extremely comfortable with every amenity. Breakfast was delicious. We would highly recommend a stay here.

Everything was perfect !!!

Relaxed and elegant townhouse with wonderful hosts.

Nothing

Very central, friendly hosts, tasty breakfast.

This is only a small point and not meant to discourage potential bookers: There are tea/coffee facilities in the room but a small charge of 1€ is made for each cup of tea or coffee. We got our own milk and tea but for this cost of room it would have been nice to have complimentary drinks.

Cosy atmosphere, comfortable bed, the bathroom was brilliant, tasty breakfast with wonderful view.

The property is centrally located, quiet, cosy, and has a lot of charm. The hosts are welcoming, knowledgeable and warm. Annick knows a lot about the area, has good historical acumen and advice on what to do The breakfast is delicious, copious, and the great view is peaceful. The room itself is in my opinion charming, the bathroom stunning and the view transports you back in time.

No notes to add

We stayed here for 4 nights. Annick and Michel are incredible hosts: they have a beautiful place and our bathroom was definitely one of many highlights. They had lots of suggestions of great things to do and an expansive knowledge of the area's history. The breakfasts were very tasty. Location is perfect for exploring Bruges. Thankyou to you both for the stay.

Location, comfort, breakfast & the hosts.

Beautiful breakfast each morning overlooking their garden. Very accommodating with requests and very friendly. Bathrooms were enormous, beautiful and very clean.

Nothing we loved it!

My husband and I stayed her for 3 nights for the first leg of our honeymoon and we couldn’t have loved it more! The room was perfect, comfortable bed, beautiful bathroom with shower and tub. Location was excellent- walking distance to everything! Annick & Michael were so sweet and accommodating and their breakfast each morning was fresh and delicious! Annick gave us some wonderful suggestions on things to do/see in Brugge. We are so glad we chose to stay here and would love to come back and visit!

The location was great, a short walk to the Christmas markets and high streets. The bnb itself is lovely, our room had a big bed and nice decor, the bathroom was incredible. The hosts were very friendly and attentive, they had plenty of suggestions for things to do and places to visit. Would recommend!

Beautiful breakfast Lovely hosts Perfect location for exploring Bruges Massive bedroom and bathroom Comfy bed

Superb B&B in Bruges ! Annick and Michel are great host. The room is very comfortable and decorate with taste. I loved the huge bathroom with bath and walking shower. Breakfast was excellent. Every thing is fresh and the view of their garden peaceful. Perfect location within 10 min walk from the market place. Finally Annick and Michel are very hospitable. Annick gave us a lot of recommendations and make sure that we enjoyed our stay. Thanks for the peaceful weekend.

Everything, perfect location, large, modern and clean rooms, excellent breakfast and the best hosts you could hope for.

Nothing, it was perfect

The room(s) are amazing, so large and luxurious, particularly the bathroom. it feels like you have more than one room!

Only one minor issue is that we weren't sure whether the tea and coffee facilities in the room were free.

The house was stunning, great for art lovers with an ecliptic mix of art throughout the house plus the perfect hosts and being so close to the centre it was the perfect place to stay. Rooms were great with amazing bathrooms to each. Delicious and plentiful continental breakfast with fresh fruit and bread, local cheeses and ham made a perfect start to each morning. Great tips and ideas from the hosts for things to do and see.

High level of cleanliness throughout the house, nice seating are within the room, beautiful artwork everywhere, privacy with the drapes open, tasty high quality breakfast options and lovely breakfast presentation in a warm and inviting room, on top of all that the owners were friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again when in Bruges.

Leaving

Annik and Phillipe were delightful and welcoming hosts. The breakfasts and conversations were phenomenal. The bathroom was huge and well appointed. We would recommend The Alphabet B & B to anyone and everyone!

We were a little surprised that there was a charge for in-room coffee ☕️ and tea.

What a lovely B&B! It has everything you need and is close to everything by foot. Annick and her husband have wonderful taste and have decorated the house in true style. The breakfast area overlooks a gorgeous, tranquil garden and the variety of croissants, cheese, fresh fruit, eggs and raisin breads with home-made jams is the perfect way to start your day!

The only down-side is that we had to leave!

Reality exceeded our expectations. This place delivered over and above! Really spacious suite with artful decor. Quality crisp linens. The bathroom was enormous! Very clean. The suite had everything we needed. Not to mention coffee, tea, fresh cream, waters and wine, restocked daily. And! A fabulous personalized breakfast each morning in a glass atrium-like room facing the garden. Host Annik was very sweet and helpful. We departed very early our last morning not having time for a sit-down breakfast, but she kindly packed a goodie bag filled with warm croissants and pastries and sandwiches she had made that morning for our train ride to the airport.

Everything! Warmly welcomed by Annick and Michel. Large rooms, very comfortable bed, incredible bathroom, lots of towels, small touches throughout that made our stay so special. Wonderful breakfasts in the sunroof each morning. Great restaurant recommendations Our stay couldn't have been more perfect!

Leaving.

Everything about our stay exceeded our expectations! Annick our host was friendly, informative and wonderful. The breakfast was the best we've ever had at a Guesthouse - fresh fruit, pastries and fresh bread, eggs and homemade preserves. We loved the quirky crockery and breakfast ware and eating in the pretty conservatory looking out onto a picturesque garden, watching the birds. Attention to detail throughout was perfect - from the artwork and lighting in the room, the bathrobes and slippers, the oh so comfortable beds and the beautiful bathroom with roll-top bath and luxury toiletries. Annick really had thought about everything!

Nothing - we loved it all!

Beautiful, spacious accommodations. Spa bath. Centrally located. Phenomenal hosts. Wonderful breakfast. 5-10 minute stroll to restaurants, churches, squares. 15-20 minute walk to the train station.

The room was lovely.. clean and very comfortable and a wonderful bath and view. But best of all were the breakfasts and the wonderful hosts who took the time to make it all special. Thank you for everything!

A fabulous house,the room was so comfortable. The breakfast was amazing. The hosts were so friendly and knowledgeable and chatty. I'd go back.100% recommend.

The hosts were wonderful and were very helpful throughout our stay. The impeccably clean room was comfortable and large with an equally large bathroom. Breakfast was fresh and delicious and served in a beautiful garden room. We would definitely stay here again!

Superb location and really comfortable room. Annick was a fantastic host and the breakfasts were amazing. We loved the huge bathroom. An absolute gem and highly recommended .

Nothing!

The bathroom was incredible The breakfast was amazing The location was fantastic It was really quiet and peaceful despite being in the centre of Bruges

Everything is just perfect: the decoration in the bedroom, amazing bathroom, probably the nicest and biggest I have ever had while traveling. The breakfast is very tasty, healthy and fresh. The attention to details is above what we could expect. The location is perfect close to everything but away from the crowd. The hosts give valuable tips on Bruges and are the nicest people. Annick gave us a little treat for our train ride.

nothing everything was perfect

A lovely breakfast with home made jams, fresh breads and pastries and choices of cheeses and ham.

Nothing!

It was near the centre of Brugge which is very helpful and the building and inside premises is absolutely stunning. Facilities are excellent and I found the rooms massive which I thought was incredible for the price.

Everything!!!

Central location, fabulous breakfast, beautiful house and lovely hosts.

Beautiful and comfortable guest house in great location. Annick is lovely and looked after us.

Breakfast had so many options, wonderful. Exquisite bathroom larger than the bedroom with everything you could think of. Bed and bedding left nothing to be desired. And as for our host, wonderfully helpful.

Nothing

Everything. The hosts of this place put so much love into everything they do. It is ideal place to relax and take your time to enjoy your stay at Bruges. I was provided with all possible information I needed to explore the city. Even with the book with possible walks described. Annick can tell you so much about the city and its history. The food recommendations were also spot on. Breakfast at this place deserves special mentioning. You get amazing home made jams, fresh bread and even home baked pasties and much more. Perfect energy boost. Haven't felt so much at ease in any B&B before. Very grateful to hosts for all attention and care. Highly recommended.

Immaculately presented, clean, spacious room with huge bathroom. Very well placed to walk and discover Bruges with private parking just a minute walk to the front door. We were made to feel very welcome and the owners shared lots of information and recommendations to make our trip better. Breakfast was amazing, plentiful fresh produce, always served with care and attention. I highly recommend Alphabet B&B and we will return for sure!

Nothing

Loved everything! The hosts are amazing and have a beautiful B & B! The room was extremely spacious, very well appointed, and bed was so comfortable! The bathroom was AMAZING and bigger then most European hotel rooms!

A spacious and stylishly decorated room with an amazing bathroom. Fantastic breakfast in a sun room overlooking the garden. Friendly hosts. Overall it was a wonderful experience.

Exceptionally clean, quiet and very central in Bruges. Perfect host ensuring we had all we need. Excellent breakfast. So close to everything Bruges has to offer.

Nothing

Great location to walk around the city. Very quiet. Giant bathroom with a spacious walk-in shower. The breakfast is exceptional, with a lot of fresh products. The owner is very kind and will try to accommodate all your needs.

As a small note, be aware that there's no actual door between the room and the bathroom (but they cannot see you showering from the room unless they stay in the entrance). The WC is in a separate small room at the end of the bathroom, with a door, so there is privacy there. Also, if you have troubles sleeping with some light, you might want to bring an eye mask because it can be bright in the morning.

The location was fantastic as were the hosts. Breakfast was great! Couldn’t fault anything.

Wonderful B&B in a perfect location in Brugge. Parking available was a plus. The hosts are perfect. From the moment we arrived Ami was welcoming and took the time to explain everything about the rooms (which are large, comfortable and beautiful). The breakfast is exceptional and it was a welcome treat to have Ami accommodate our granddaughter who is gluten free. Alphabet and Brugge were the highlight of our trip. Looking forward to visiting again.

Nothing

The room was very nice. It has the largest bathroom that I have ever seen! The hosts were lovely. They even helped prepare the double bed to twin beds. The breakfasts were delicious. The view in the breakfast room was simply amazing. Great location too.

We loved everything.

Upon arrival we were welcomed by Annick, the most amazing hostess. We left our luggage downstairs as our room wasn't ready (our fault, we got there way too early). Annick gave us wonderful tips on where to go and upon our return our bags were already in our room. We felt slightly guilty as they were pretty heavy. Opening the door to our room was what I assume stepping into heaven must be because it didn't stop there... the bathroom was on spa level. Enormous shower, free standing bath, cosy dressing gowns and slippers and all the toiletries you could ask for. After a fabulous dinner we returned to our room and had the most wonderful night's sleep in an enormously plush and comfortable bed. The following morning my husband and I venture down to breakfast and are welcomed into a sunny winter garden overlooking a beautiful inner courtyard with views of the host's garden and a nearby church. The smell of fresh coffee fills the air and a table decorated (I use that word because it was a masterpiece of food) with fresh pastries, homemade jams, cheeses and much more. If that wasn't enough, Annick asks if we'd like more coffee, the answer was of course yes. She brings us more coffee and says 'more coffee always comes with something sweet'. More coffee and two delicious pancakes later and we were set for our day. So the title to this review is 'Delightful' because every single thing about the Alphabet is. 'Dreamy' because you are guaranteed a good night's sleep and 'Delicious' because the breakfast is beyond superb. Thank you for our wonderful stay, it was amazing!

Luxurious environment, fab old house. Couldn‘t better the helpfulness of the hosts! The breakfast is extraordinarily good.

The stairs….although that may partly be because we‘re older folks. However, if there was a way of making them a bit more stable, that would perfect the experience.

Perfect location. The most knowledgeable, friendly and helpful hosts. Delicious breakfast.

It felt very much a part of historic Bruges. We had a very spacious and luxurious space, and the breakfast was fabulous. The host was lovely and provided many helpful recommendations.

absolutely beautiful old converted house in super convenient location, no more than 10/15 minutes walk to all of the sights of gorgeous Bruges. Really interesting alms house just across the road. Annick & Michel were the loveliest of hosts - lots of interesting local information and have decorated their house so beautifully full of unusual and intriguing art. special mention has to be made about the delicious breakfasts prepared. truly something for everyone. The bedroom and bathroom were impeccably designed and so spacious. Would not hesitate to go back and recommend, thank you for having us!

Everything! it’s a beautiful building and the rooms are out of this world. The bed is big and comfortable, the linen is quality and the comfy chairs are ideal to curl up with a book in. The bathroom is as big, if not bigger, than the bedroom with a bath central and a shower with waterfall head. Everything has been though about and considered - it feels like a very special place to stay.

I can’t think of any negatives.

Superb bedroom, fantastic bathroom and very friendly and knowledgeable host. Excellent breakfast.

Nothing

There is nothing not to like!!! What a fantastic bed and breakfast. The location couldn’t be more central, so close, however, beautifully quiet and peaceful. The two rooms are more like suites, large, bright and airy decor, exceptionally clean. Very friendly hosts who are extremely knowledgeable with regards tours and places to visit . The breakfast was above and beyond. A mixture of tradition as well as homemade jams, fresh pastries, fresh juice, eggs and even a little pancakes for my husbands birthday. The icing on the cake was the gated parking facility a stones through away, perfect for my husbands sports car. If you prefer something more personal than a hotel with the added bonus of beautiful, quirky and interesting artwork then this is the place for you. Such a brilliant find, thank you Annick for your hospitality.

great place to stay with lovely hosts! The beds were incredibly comfortable, and everything was nice and clean. The most outstanding things to me where the great bathroom and the wonderful breakfast.

No negatives to add. Everything was great!

The breakfast was so amazing! The room was comfortable with a great view. The bath was great after a long cold day of walking around the city.

Centrally located but in a quiet neighborhood. Excellent breakfast.

Annick & Michel were fantastic hosts, with great local knowledge and happy to make recommendations, and within the house everything was provided for us but the house felt super relaxed and cosy. The bedroom and bathroom were enormous, we had everything we needed and more! Annick had considered every detail and it really showed. Breakfast in the morning was excellent and surpassed our expectations. The location was also excellent, a short walk from the train station as well as all the city sights but without being on a main thoroughfare. We would recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing city break in Bruges.

Nothing at all!

Annick and Michel were perfect hosts providing us with lots of local information and help.They went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. The continental breakfast was the best we have ever had.

There wasn’t anything we didn’t like about our stay.

It is very homey, clean, comfortable, welcoming place and wonderful hosts. It has all the necessary amenities and the breakfast is fantastic! Location is great, close to everything you need. We highly recommend this accommodation and we would be happy to stay here again.

Beautiful view of the garden and the church spire from our breakfast table. The bathroom was amazing and the beds were so comfortable

The heating went off just a little too early

Home from home with all the added luxuries. Can't recommend highly enough. The location is perfect, a nice walk from the train station and a very short walk from the main square. The breakfast is very special, with a wonderful view of the spire and includes pastries, fresh juice, cheese, ham, yoghurt fruit and hot eggs, pancake and French toast. The room was clean, stunning views with a huge bathroom and toiletries included. Would definitely stay again

Can't think of anything

Our stay was remarkable, above and beyond all expectations. Annick and her husband were extraordinary hosts. The breakfast was a 5-star experience every morning. The room and accommodations were perfect. It was one of the best B&B stays of all my travels. Easy walk to the train station as well as the town center. The home and room stay is impeccably clean, comfortable and homey. It's a lovely atmosphere for those who like to meet other travelers in a friendly environment, as well.

Very spacious room with a superior bathroom. Nice and quiet location even do it's located in the centre of the city. Great breakfast served in a garden view room. Last but not least; very friendly people who do their absolute best to make you're stay as comfortable as possible. Would definitely recommend!

My health ;).. had to stay in the room for half a day. But a comfortable bed and a nice bath made it much better. Nothing that we didn't like.

The location was excellent and very quiet. Beautifully styled, comfortable and very spacious rooms with gorgeous large bathroom and lovely views. The breakfast was great - very tasty and freshly prepared. Gorgeous hosts who provided excellent service - going above and beyond to make us feel welcome and enjoy our stay - even sorting out some transport issues for us. Thank you. Highly recommend this place. 10/10.

Absolutely perfect! The bath, comfortable bed and lovely homemade breakfast with a beautiful view were the highlights. The owners were so welcoming, happy to talk and made wonderful recommendations. The location was perfect and a few minutes walk from many famous views. I hope to stay again and recommend this stay!

It was amazing, would give it 11 out of 10 if we could. Annick was simply the most amazing hostess, it was outstanding and she had thought of every thing even down to home made gluten free bread, chocolate bread and pancakes for breakfast. Never have we stayed in such a fantastic place and that’s after working and staying in 5 star hotels. We will definitely be back and very soon, didn’t want to leave!

We couldn’t fault anything - It was perfect.

In my life, I would never have expected to have the privilege of staying somewhere like Alphabet B&B. Luxury is an understatement. Anikka and her husband have created a home and inn that surpasses anything I would have expected from even the best hotels in Bruges. Art lines every wall, and our room was no different. The interior decor was designed such that you know artists live there—for who else could have such an eye for detail? Even the functional details were accounted for; screens were provided to keep the windows open and mosquitoes out. The furnishings were plush and comfortable. Everything had a place and purpose. The views were impeccable. Even the bathroom was crowned with a double shower and separate soaking tub. Both owners were hospitable and kind, never overbearing, and provided lovely conversation in both English and French. The breakfast was thorough and delicious: fresh fruit, viennoiserie, coffee, cheese, eggs—anything we could want was provided with a kind smile. Location-wise, getting to the center of Bruges couldn’t have been easier, and the home is just blocks away from the beautiful swan gardens Bruges is famous for. Restaurants and stores are minutes away. And for anywhere further, private parking was available for a modest fee. All in all, this was the most excellent place we could have stayed in the entire city. I was sad to have to leave.

Nothing. They thought of everything.

We had four nights in Brugge and we couldn't have chosen to stay anywhere more perfect. The B&B is ten minutes walk into the main square which was ideal. The room was spacious and very well equipped with a lovely large bathrooom with roll top bath and separate shower cubicle. Breakfast was amazing. Annick and Michel go to so much trouble to provide everything you could possibly want including freshly squeezed orange juice, pastries, different breads, homemade preserves and fresh fruit. You can also choose to have yoghurt, eggs and ham. Annick also brought us each morning either her delicious pancakes or French toast. It was outstanding and all served in their conservatory overlooking their beautiful garden with views of a cathedral in the background. It was hard to believe you were in the middle of a city in such a tranquil setting. It was perfect, can't recommend enough.

Nothing, it was perfect.

Hostess was superb! Everything exceeded our expectations, especially breakfast!

Nothing.

Ou room was wonderfully large, clean and well appointed. The bathroom was huge. Linens and appointments were all first rate. The breakfast was the best we have had in our three week trip. Our hostess made sure we she offered us eggs, coffee, whatever we wanted. she even made a cappuccino which was delicious. private parking was very close to the property,and the owner came out to show us where to park and help carry our bags.

there was nothing to not like. it was wonderful

Annick and Michel are such wonderful hosts. Guest rooms are bright,spacious and immaculate. Breakfast served is outstanding, Annick always has a special treat to serve her guests.

Everything. It was perfect. Lovely hosts, beautiful, spacious, comfortable room. The breakfast was exceptional with organic, home made food with a view over the garden. Can't rate it highly enough.

Nothing. It was all exceptional.

Annick was the most welcoming host, nothing was too much trouble. The location is superb, only a 10 minute walk to all attractions, restaurants, bars and shops, and a secure car park very close by. Annick’s home is a peaceful haven, the rooms and bathrooms are very spacious, clean and airy. She serves a wonderful breakfast and is always on hand to offer suggestions. We felt very privileged to have stayed here and will be recommending it to our friends and family, and hope to return ourselves. Thank you again Annick for taking such good care of us.

There is nothing to dislike, it’s superb!

Gracious and generous hosts! We enjoyed a week in the room overlooking the gardens and cathedral. The bathroom was spacious and luxurious, with a walk-in shower and free-standing bathtub. Annick and Michael prepared a breakfast which included fresh-squeezed OJ, croissants, whole-grain breads, homemade preserves (Michael’s), cheeses, cold meats, fruit, yogurt, eggs prepared as you prefer. The house displays many pictures and other art pieces of great interest. Cannot praise the hosts enough- kind and very generous with their time. They want you to enjoy Bruges and are happy to help you understand it’s history. You will not be disappointed with your stay!
