Bruges Hostels

"This is one of the best places I've ever been. The city is lovely, as well as the hostel itself. It is built inside a stone building, with maze-like stairs connecting the base and the first floor. The receptionists and people working in the bar are pretty cool. The bar itself has more than 20 different types of Belgian beer. The accommodation is really cheap, 11 euros for a twelve-bed room, 12 euros for a six-bed room. The rooms are clean and big. The only problem is with the showers. You have to hold down a handle, which tries to let go,...  more »

Place was great, especially the bar. people were great. we'll be back in '07. best stay in our trip to europe." … "I stayed at this hotel/hostel in August and had a real good time, especially at the bar where you can meet a lot of people. The staff were also very kind and friendly. If you have nothing better to do at night than sleep, take a couple of ear plugs!!!" … "This is more like a great bar with a...  more »

"Woderfully welcoming, I was greeted with a good beer and better people - The Lybeer is a really great hostel. It was the fourth hostel I had stayed in and it was by far the best! All of the staff is really nice, helpful, speak great English, and several speak multiple languages. The owners also opened a restaurant that's not particularly close to the hostel, but we made the walk (fifteen minutes or so) and it was well worth it. The food was tasty and plentiful and we even saw the bartender from the Lybeer eating dinner, so he made us some...  more »

"We stayed here in April for the Tour of Flanders and really enjoyed the Passage. The location was great, right off the main shopping street. The rooms were clean and a good size. The restaurant was a good value and the ribs were excellent. It could use a common room though. I would stay here again if I went back to Bruges." … "This is a decent hostel. There is a really nice restaurant downstairs. It's really nice in the sense that it is cool, not fancy and over-priced. The only downside of the restaurant is that it is the only social...  more »

"I thought this place was OK. The bar was good fun, it was cheap, the breakfast was basic but nice. It's very central but quite noisy. The rooms and washing facilities were average." … "I was staying on the second floor so there was no noise. Great location. The staff were friendly enough and the rooms clean. I had to keep pressing the shower to get water out and then — there was no hot water. There were enough lights in the corridor when I went; and though they did mix genders in my four-bed dorm, it was not a problem. Overall: a...  more »

"It's a bit far from the town center, but it's really comfortable, clean, calm and cheap. Good choice." … "Average. - I visited the hostel on a school trip and found the facilities were to quite a high standard and I quite enjoyed the meals. I felt secure in my room and was fairly comfortable, and impressed that we had our own space in the form of a common room. However I was extremely unimpressed by how myself and other members of the party were dealt with by the staff. They were very unfriendly, unapproachable and sometimes just plain...  more »

"Good price - The rooms are good, bathroom facilities quite standard, free internet a definite plus! Not much happening, but this was october. People are unable to understand a non-smoking sign, but that is no fault of the hostel. The hostel is a tiny bit out of the centre, but once you know where you are going that is no problem. Good price to stay close to such a wonderful town!" … "The best Hostel I ever been - Excellent!! I love it! Very Clean, the staff are very kind, the rooms, the toilets, showers, the situation, everything is...  more »

"'t Keizershof is really nice. The host family, which owns the hostel and lives in it, is very friendly and helpful. This hostel is very charming and the owners are delightful -- and they speak several languages, which can be a help to travelers. They accept cash only. The price is expensive if you are just one person, since you must book the entire room. However, in the winter they are flexible on paying the price for the room and not per person. The hostel is smoke free and there is no lockout. There is a continental breakfast included in...  more »

All rooms have ensuite facilities. The hostel is part of a rowing club. Other rowing clubs can use the training facilities (contact hostel directly).
