Quiet Bruges base with beer-lovers charm

Dukes’ Academie keeps things calm on a charming cobblestone street in Bruges’ historic golden triangle, pairing gentle-toned interiors with a homey, peaceful feel. Mornings start in a brick-vaulted breakfast room with a generous buffet, and evenings can wind down with locally brewed Belgian beers in the cozy bar and lounge. When it is time to explore, the most-loved sights are an easy walk away.

  • Vaulted-ceiling breakfast buffet

    A rich spread in a historic brick-vaulted room sets an easy pace.

  • Leafy terrace downtime

    Open-air drinks on the summer terrace, perfect after sightseeing or shopping.

  • Steps from Bruges icons

    Walk to Minnewater Park and the Begijnhof in about three minutes.

I stayed here at the Academie in Bruges 11 years ago and it was a great place then. I have just come back from another 4 night stay and it was just as good. I couldn't fault the hotel or the staff. The breakfast is amazing. I think the only way they could improve on perfect would be to get some Yorkshire tea!

Let belt hotel in a great location. Very well equipped room, extremely comfortable bed! We didn’t have breakfast as we thought the 30e per person per day was a bit steep - but we spoke to other guests who advised it was very good.
