The hotel has the best location in town, right by the canal. It’s easy to access all the main attractions. Our room was clean. The breakfast was delicious and staffs were super friendly.

I can't imagine a better place to stay if you're in Bruges. Lynne is an exceptional host that thinks of every detail and is so kind. The breakfast that was included was so fresh and of great quality with fresh fruits, eggs, cheeses, breads, juice, and jam. Our room was very comfortable with a beautiful bathroom and the rooftop and lounge were very nice intimate spaces to relax. The location is very convenient, yet tucked away and still quiet. I only wish we could have stayed longer.

We loved our stay here! The hospitality was amazing, and the accommodations were absolutely beautiful. We stayed in one of the suites and it had a jacuzzi, which was so relaxing. It is super central and the views are fantastic, not to mention the delicious breakfast prepared by the hosts of fresh fruit and eggs each morning. We would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Bruges, and also recommend you book very early especially if you’re coming at a high tourist season.

Perfect! Better than our 5-star hotel!
We thought this would be our only trip to Brugge, but this B&B was so great we want to make a special trip any time we are in Europe! We had stayed in a 5-star hotel the night before, and prepared ourselves that this wouldn't be as good -- we were so wrong, this was way better! Great blend of modern conveniences (like motion-sensing lighting) in a historic setting, beautiful rooms and every convenience you would want - so don't worry that it will be less comfortable than a more modern place, and the owner is so sweet and attentive if there is anything at all that you need. I had completely missed when I booked that instead of the usual fruit and bread assortment elsewhere, the owner does a multi-course champagne breakfast complete with made to order omelettes! The location is amazing - right in the heart of everything (you can watch tourists going by and photographing the building), two minutes walk to myriad great restaurants, but the B&B itself is quiet and designed to be a respite from all the busy hustle bustle of Brugge. We only wished we had more time to spend on the roof deck garden -- we will just have to make the sacrifice to go back again! It really was the perfect end to our two weeks in Europe - we could see the city, but get away from the tourists and just rest and recharge before heading home, which was just what we needed since we had our six-month old with us!!

We spent a city-break week-end at Bonifacius. Really great experience overall. Location is perfect, close to the main sites and the train station. Breakfast was amazing, more than we could wish for. Great services, we will definitely come back.

A charmer
A stunning city and Bonifacius is a tourist attraction because of the position right on the canal. It is a 15th century charmer beautifully restored and decorated. Lyne is a lovely lady and nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was delicious. A must stay in Bruges.

Disappointing shabby interior
For a hotel with exclusive in the name it was hardly that. My room was furnished with shabby antiques and the room decor in depressing colors. door was locked when I arrived and no one on premise to open it. The entry way had a bike and a beat up bench and it took 3 locked doors to open to get to your room. The breakfast however was so superior it really made up for the dingy interior.I would suggest owner creates a budget for redecorating.

Authentic and Enjoyable stay
We stayed at this B&B for one night between some time in Paris on our way to Amsterdam. The B&B was wonderful and in a great location central to everything in Brugge. The room was amazing including a lovely jacuzzi tub. The breakfast was delicious. I would absolutely recommend this a great great break from hotels and an nice romantic stay.

Best location ever!
It was a perfect location right on the canal. We loved the character of the 16th century home (leaded windows, wooden shutters etc) Our hostess was delightful and very helpful about things to do. The breakfast delicious and plentiful. My only regret is that we only had two nights there : ( Next trip we need to plan for a longer stay : D Can't wait to go back!! The town of Brugge could not be more romantic and beautiful. It truly is a must see!!

Breath-taking canal-side retreat
I am not a person to write reviews, but in this instance, I will make an exception. I was looking to step back into time and indulge in a bit of luxury and comfort. My expectations were met. Located at the heart of medieval Bruges, yet cut away from the hustle and bustle. The junior bedroom was charming, the bathroom well fitted, together with a jacuzzi tub ideal to unwind. The breakfast room was a picture. Enjoyed fresh fruits, selection of breads, pastries, cheeses, cooked egg dish... Great attentive service... Wonderful start to a day of discovery. The weather was with us and we had a good bottle on the terrace. Wonderful time ponctuated by the mesmerising chime of the belfry and steeples all around... Will go back in a breath. Wish I was there still xxx

Great location, friendly service.
This is a wonderful little guesthouse in a great location with fantastic service. The room we had over the canal was great but it was somewhat of a photo attraction for tourists so we had to keep the shutters closed. Note this guesthouse is just your room and a breakfast room - but that's all we needed.

Beautiful Guesthouse
The guesthouse only has three rooms and you will be greeted by Lynne and shown to your room. Lynne is the owner and has done a wonderful job thoughtfully restoring the place. Whatever you need, she is there to help. If you want to feel like you are living in Old town Bruges, you should pay a visit. It is situated right next to the Church of the Old Lady and a short walk from the Belfort. Lynne will also gladly show you where to find the best waffles, food, museums. She and her family have lived in Bruges all their lives.

A fabulous stay at the perfectly located Guesthouse Bonifacius. The room was stunning, the breakfast was amazing and the staff couldn't do enough while at the same time giving us complete freedom so it felt like we were guests in a friends very lovely house. I can't recommend it enough - one of the best stays we've ever had.

My wife and I stayed two nights at the Bonifacius B&B...what a wonderful experience. The B&B is situated in the heart of the old city, easy walking distance to all sites and shops. The room was spacious and well appointed, breakfast was delicious and substantial. Lynn was a gracious hostess, and helpful with advice about the town and 'must see' sights. HIGHLY recommended.

This is the loveliest place to stay. So luxurious.
Quaint and very historic, the Bonifacius is modern, roomy and very comfortable inside whilst still retaining the antique decor. So welcoming and a very helpful hostess. Fabulous breakfast. A quiet lane but very central to the activities and sites of Bruge. I give it a 10.

All the Bells & Whistle but!
Great location - In beautiful old historical building - First Class breakfast - Congenial host ...BUT... Room was very small and the abundance of furniture made it seem even smaller-- While breakfast was excellent it was available primarily on host's schedule- Complicated entry required passing through three levels of entry locks to gain access

For a comfortable and well located stay you can't get better than this guesthouse. Attention to detail and a fantastic breakfast completed a good night's rest. This is the guesthouse many would like to stay in as the avid photographers across the canal click away at its charming exterior.

Long weekend getaway
My husband and I took a quick trip to Bruges. The inn was right in the middle of everything located on a beautiful water way. The inside had so much character yet was very modern (old met new); it was simply amazing. The caretaker was so friendly and accommodating and walked us through everything upon check in. I would absolutely recommend staying here. Thanks for the incredible weekend!!!

Best B&B during our honeymoon
Our stay at Bonifacius was amazing! We stayed 2 nights during our honeymoon trip through Belgium and it was our favorite! The B&B is a beautiful house right on a canal. The suite was perfect and larger than we expected. The small rooftop terrace is an ideal place for afternoon drinks (we bought some belgium beers at a shop down the road). And the breakfast was delicious with a great view of the canal. Lyne and her team were so very attentive and welcoming. I wish we could have stayed longer!

Spent the first weekend of 2015 at the Bonifacius. Perfect in every way - comfy, homely and in a great location. We loved every minute of it, would not hesitate to recommend. Breakfast here is worthy of a mention - superb. This will be our choice of accommodation on our subsequent trips to Bruges.

Fairy Tale Home Away From Home
It would be impossible to praise Bonifacius Guesthouse too much. Lynne is a wonderful hostess. The inn is charming and the location is excellent. We felt like guests in a friend's private home. The daily breakfast is magnificent. Lynne's hospitality is second to none. Her recommendations for activities and restaurants were excellent. Book a room with a canal view and don't forget to check out the rooftop garden for great views of the city, especially in the evening.
