We stayed for three nights at the Golden Tree Hotel in Bruges and truly enjoyed the charm of this historic property. The room had an old-world character that felt cozy and inviting. The bed and carpet were very comfortable, and the lamps added a lovely touch of homeliness.
Housekeeping did a great job throughout our stay, keeping everything clean and tidy. The only issues we noticed were that the bathtub tended to clog frequently, and it would have been nice to have a hanger near the mirror for towels, as well as a proper spot to place our luggage.
Breakfast was excellent — served in a dining room that looks like a small palace, with crystal chandeliers and elegant vintage furniture. The hotel is about a 13-minute walk from the Old Town Square, making it convenient yet peaceful.
A special mention to the night staff — she was amazing! Though we didn’t catch her name, she went out of her way to share local tips, restaurant recommendations, and even provided us with a city map. Unfortunately, our interaction with another male staff member was disappointing; he was quite rude to my spouse, who had only asked about the location of the steam room. His attitude really contrasted with the otherwise warm hospitality we experienced.
Overall, despite a few hiccups, the Golden Tree Hotel offered a charming and memorable stay in beautiful Bruges.
