Good find, short walk from centre
Lovely hotel, basic but comfortable rooms, 15 minute walk from Bruge Centre. Rooms basic with no kettle but lovely bar/coffee shop at extra cost. We didn't have breakfast as it seemed very costly and plenty of places to eat in Bruge. 20 minute walk from Bruge stadium for football if you go to a game like we did. Would stay again.

Recommend this hotel
Check in was very quick and easy and gentleman at the desk was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast options were bread, cereals, cold meats, fruit and some hot food (sausages, scrambled eggs and bacon). Although choices were limited the breakfast was good. Room was clean and spacious. No kettle in the room, but I later found out we could have asked for one. There is a bottle of of water, which tasted like tap water and not replaced on following days. Parking although not an issue as we found parking nearby, the hotel itself doesn't have parking. It is only within around 20 mins walk from town centre. It is pet friendly. It doesn't serve lunch or dinner, but there were a few places to eat nearby and also some shops.

A little bit mis-leading to advertise free parking. There is free parking in two local car parks but they were both full when we arrived. If these are full then parking is an issue

Lovely hotel which is a 15 minute walk from the old market square. Bed was comfortable and room was spacious and clean. Parking is in a local park which is a 2 minute walk from the hotel. Area felt safe and secure. Didn't have breakfast so can't comment. Would happily book again.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Olympia. The rooms are simple yet comfortable, while the hotel itself boasts a style beyond its price range. The guy running the place was incredibly friendly and helpful and seemed to not miss a beat while doing everything himself. The free street parking nearby saved us a great deal of money and was ideal for a property located less than a 20 minute walk from the city centre. The only negative would be that the bar closes too early for you to make full use of it. However, this can be forgiven if you appreciate one person is trying to operate everything themselves. Overall a great experience and we will definitely consider staying at the Olympia again when we return to Bruges

Honestly didn’t really use the hotel for more than a bed to sleep in! Although we did sample the beer from the bar a couple of nights. Staff very helpful. About a 25min walk into centre of Bruges.

Lovely Friendly Hotel.
Friendly and extremely clean hotel. Nice quiet location, just a short walk from.the city. Breakfast was excellent with plenty of choices. Very welcoming on arrival (although room wasn't ready for check-in, the only negative). Would definitely recommend and will use again when in Bruges.

Recommend this hotel, arrived in pouring rain and staff only to obliging to sort out a taxi to go to xmas market and main attractions and we could pre pay at hotel which was very reasonable. Peter was exceptional when we arrived back at hotel when we realised we forgot our shopping bag at the restaurant we had eaten dinner that evening and had only a vague idea where. He managed to locate the restaurant and we picked up our purchases the next day.

This was our third visit to the Olympia, and our first since the refurbishment. It is a great base to explore Bruges, and has become our stopover of choice on our way back to the Channel ports. Happy to recommend, and look forward to our next visit.

One staff member ruined it for all
The hotel was in a very nice location, within easy walking distance of the city centre. There was good parking opportunities and the people on reception on arrival were very helpful on this. I was overall impressed upon arrival, however the person there on the Sunday evening was nice than welcoming, and appeared to be more concerned about getting home than visitor cordiality. I asked if it was possible to have breakfast fifteen minutes early because of my required departure time but I was told abruptly and impolitely 'No', with no further acknowledgment. This sadly was my last staff interaction and left a bad feeling. Apologies to the other staff who were excellent.
