The Adornes is a 20-room, mid-range, historic
hotel in a choice location away from the bustle of the city center, but still
within walking distance of restaurants, shops, public transportation, and
tourist attractions. Rooms do not have air-conditioning and include only the
essentials, but there are charming antique accents such as wood beams that make the
space feel cozy and welcoming. Noise may be an issue for front-facing rooms, though there
are beautiful views of the Potterierei Canal and other historic buildings from this vantage point. There is free
breakfast, Wi-Fi, and parking; however, the Wi-Fi is only available in public
areas and the parking is off-site. This hotel is pet-friendly (daily fee) and offers
free rental bikes and an advantage card for discounts on attractions.

Scene
A family hotel with historic accents on a pretty canal
Antique wood beams, windows, and brick
decorate the historic Hotel Adornes and give it a comfortable, lived-in
atmosphere; out the front door are the canal and picturesque views. The breakfast
room houses an original fireplace, simple hard-backed wood chairs, and
red tablecloths, as well as big, bright windows. A cozy 17th century
sitting room in the cellar has a unique gorilla-shaped wood-burning stove in
addition to plush leather and red fabric seating. There is free Wi-Fi
throughout the public areas of the property and the Hotel Adornes is
pet-friendly (only small pets, with a daily fee). Although there are
few luxurious extras, the hotel has a quaint, homey feeling.
Location
In central Bruges, within walking distance of restaurants, shops, public transportation, and attractions
The Hotel Adornes is located on a beautiful
tree-lined, quiet street on the Potterierei Canal and is within walking
distance of Market Square, the Choco-Story Museum, the Basilica of the Holy
Blood, and the Groeningemuseum, as well as many restaurants and shops. About a
five-minute drive away is Minnewater, the Lake of Love, and public
transportation can take passengers to any of the popular sites around Bruges. Renting a
car is something to consider if you’re coming from the airport since it’s about
35 minutes from the hotel, or if you want to explore outside of the city center;
however, public transportation does run between the Ostend-Bruges International
Airport and the Hotel Adornes.
Rooms
Clean, minimalist rooms with historic charm
At the Hotel Adornes, rooms vary in size
to accommodate different kinds of travelers. While the Small Double Room is
indeed small, the Large Double Room and Triple Room have enough space to accommodate
families. Antique exposed beams, original windows, and wood furniture make the
space feel intimate while red accents in the paint, pillows, and curtains add
much needed color to the otherwise stark design. All rooms include a decent-size flat-screen TV and simple toiletries. Some bathrooms are small
while others are much larger, but all include a shower/tub combo and bright white tile. Coffee/tea items are available only upon request. Mosquito nets are
provided as there is no air-conditioning and guests may have to open the windows
to cool down. Front rooms have exceptional views of the Potterierei Canal and
historic buildings across the street; however, there is traffic noise at
certain times of the night. None of the rooms have Wi-Fi.
Features
Free breakfast and free rental bikes, plus free parking nearby
Since this hotel is small and in Old Town
Bruges, it does not have a fitness center, business center, or on-site
restaurant; however, the breakfast room serves a daily free continental
breakfast and there is bar service in the cellar until 11 p.m. Wi-Fi is free in the public areas. The Hotel
Adornes offers free bikes to borrow for riding around the city, a free advantage
card for discounted attraction prices, and a small guest computer area with a
wealth of informational tourist materials. Free parking is available, but at a
nearby location. Babysitting is provided for a fee.
