Bruges by Boat or Carriage

Discover Bruges in a romantic way by boat or horse-drawn carriage. Cruise along the picturesque canals and admire the historic architecture from the water, accompanied by graceful swans. Prefer a touch of nostalgia? Choose an intimate carriage ride through the cobbled streets, departing from the Market Square. At a gentle pace, with views of historic squares and streets, time seems to stand still — pure romance.

A Tasty Tête-à-Tête

In Bruges, culinary indulgence goes far beyond a classic candlelight dinner. Start your day with our generous breakfast in a romantic setting. For lunch, we recommend Bagelsalon Sanseveria, loved for its cosy, homely atmosphere.

After an afternoon of strolling through the city’s picturesque streets, it’s time for a refined pause. Treat yourself to an afternoon tea in our elegant art-deco salon, only possible in the weekends & also open to non-hotel guests. Ease into the evening with a cocktail or local beer in our bar, and finish with a candlelight dinner. Choose the refined Less Eatery or the warm, timeless charm of ’t Nieuw Walnutje — both perfect settings for an evening filled with flavour and romance.
