Very nice clean cozy room with upstairs kitchen facilities, cozy as this beautiful town of Brugges. Owner very nice and friendly, even we arrived late he was very nice to meet us and didn’t give us a hard time about it. Room had little welcome things, a bottle of wine, bottle of water, candies, even a nice welcome sign with our names. Well done! Place is in an excellent location! Highly recommended!

Stay here!!
Such a lovely spot!! The location was just out of the tourist walk route so the room was very quiet. Instructions to access our room and parking was very easy and thorough. Waiting for us in the room was a bottle of wine and water, which was delightful. The bed was also amazingly comfortable. Our hosts were, of course, always easy to reach and provided spots around town to check out. I highly recommend this place!

Lovely place to stay in a great location! The owners was great and very accommodating when we arrived early. The room was really nice and the bed and bedding was just lovely. The only negative would be that there was no full length mirror, but we would definitely stay here again when we return.

Great place to stay!
The room was clean, comfortable, private, and very nicely decorated. Very accommodating. There was a welcome basket with wine, glasses, water, and a list of some recommended nearby restaurants. The owner is extremely nice, and actually spent a good bit of time trying to help us on the phone to track down an item we had lost on the train, since the language barrier made it difficult for us. The location was convenient, about 3/4 mile from the train station, close to the Market Square, lots of restaurants, shops, etc. WiFi was great. There is also a laundry facility not far away where they offer self service or full service. We really enjoyed our stay!

Picturesque City Break
Absolutely loved our few days in Bruges. Our stay at Ambiente rooms was extremely pleasant. We arrived Wednesday afternoon to a basket containing a lovely complimentary bottle of red wine with 2 glasses. The perfect welcome to our break away whilst unpacking our suitcases. We stayed in the green room which is very spacious and clean. Lots of storage space and natural light. The apartment is located just of the River Dijver which is great for getting some fabulous pictures especially of an evening of the Rozendhoedkaai. The Markt with the Belfry and Burg Square are only a short walk away as are all the other landmarks you would wish to visit. We got the train to Ghent for the day too which is well worth the trip as this is also another fabulous place steeped in history with its castles, churches and Belfry. I would definitely recommend Ambiente Rooms to family and friends.

Ideal spot to explore Bruges from.
The Abiente Rooms are ideally placed to explore Bruges. Situated approx. 15-20mins walk from the Station and another 10 mins from the main hub of the city, the Market Square, with everything in easy reach. The road is quiet which extends to the room which is tranquil and relaxing, making it the perfect base.

Amazing location and great place to stay :)
This place is more like a B&B (but without the breakfast). It has a nice (/really cute) communal lounge and kitchen with facilities for tea and coffee. The room was warm and clean, and the bed was super comfortable! The location was also great - just a few minutes to the main square. The owners also gave us a map with restaurant recommendations and we went to two of these (both excellent). Would highly recommend!

Mosquito nightmare
Upon checking in we were pleased as the room is nice and Veerle was hospitable and pleasantly brief. As with most places in Europe there is no cooling system so the windows were wide open with no screens upon check in and we left them that way not knowing what was to come. Fast forward to 2am when I was woken up by the several mosquito bites I had gotten in my sleep. I tried to wrap myself in the blanket but was driven crazy by the sound of mosquitos buzzing in my ears every few minutes. We were both awake (my husband hadn't slept at all because of the buzzing) and spent an hour hunting mosquitos in the room (we swatted about 30 in total). We spent the next day tired and cranky as we had barely slept and when I mentioned the issue to Veerle she simply said, "Oh, there's supposed to be a plug-in in here, I will get it." We were sure to keep the windows closed the next day and night, and I am certain that the plug-in solution made no difference because I still woke with more bites. In total I left with about 25 bites upon check-out. Don't get me wrong, I understand that visiting in summer definitely affects the bug population and that to some extent it is out of the control of the hotel, but there were no screens on the windows, the windows were left open for hours, no heads up was given that the mosquitos are bad at night, and the only "solution" was not implemented until day 2 after we had lost a night of sleep.

Dear guest, Sorry to read your discomfort. It is really the first thing we read about it and it's to bad you do it anonymously. We are always there for our guests and do provide you with anti mosquito plugs from the start. Of course we want to ventilate your room since it can be to moisturised after a good shower and sleep. If we wouldn't do this you would complain about the humidity. I understand sometimes thing do not go as planned but again we did our best to provide you with all the best we can offer..

We were given a warm welcome and the accommodation was as stated, very comfortable and in a good location. Ideal for exploring Brugge and the surrounding countryside. The walk to Damme takes about an hour and is well worth it, Damme is a lovely village and the boat ride back was ideal.

This place is astoundingly gorgeous. Would be perfect for a couple, for sure, though I enjoyed it on my own too. Fantastic bathroom with large tub, wonderful bed, mere steps from the main square in town although on a quiet street. Willem, the proprietor, is super friendly and provided maps and recommendations for what to do in town. There is no reason not to stay here.

The location was just far enough from the busy tourist area that it was quieter than the more busy areas. Bruges is small enough that almost everything is within 20 minute walking distance. Veerle and Willem provided many excellent tips and suggestions. We cannot wait to return!

It's a B instead of a B&B, but's an A rating!
Veerle and Willem are attentive hosts, even though they do not live on the premises. While there is no breakfast served, there is a wonderful kitchen and common room with all the amenities so you can bring in your own breakfast. They started our stay with excellent directions to everything we needed; their recommendations were right on the number. Thanks, Veerle and Willem

Wonderful, welcoming hosts!
The Abiente Rooms are charming and incredibly well-located just near the Markt in the heart of Bruges. It only takes one look at the photos on the webiste and one minute onsite to realize the loving care put into these fanstastic accommodations by our gracious hosts. Upon our arrival, we found treats, annotated maps and personalized restaurant recommendations . Our room was pristine, spacious and aesthetically pleasing. The living room and kitchen area upstairs was great for making coffee in the morning and storing a few treats from the Markt. Our hosts were warm, welcoming and thoroughly accommodating and helpful. Highly recommended! A great value!

This room was a great central location. We figured out the bus stop to take instead of walking from the train station. No breakfast was included, but there was a shared microwave and little fridge and dishes so we made some of our meals there. When we arrived, he sat down with a map and gave us some restaurant recommendations which was nice information. The room was clean and comfy.

The guest house is very clean and comfortable, the owners are very friendly. Our room was beautifully decorated and spacious with many extra touches to make a guest feel special; lovely arm chairs to relax in, fresh bottle of water, a welcome bottle of wine which was a lovely touch. Guests have the use of a bright attic room with lots of skylights, to sit and read or enjoy complimentary coffee, tea and the use of a fridge.

Upon arrival to Bruges, Willem greated us at the Abiente Rooms and provided an "orientation" to the town. He provided a list of restaurants, chocolate shops, bakeries, bars and tourist attractions, and highlighted them on a map that was our to keep. The additional level of care provided really made our experience in Bruges that much more enjoyable. We will definitely be staying at the Abiente Rooms if/when we return to Bruges.
