Full Review

Scene

A welcoming, family-owned historical hotel

From the moment guests walk in the door, they can feel the family atmosphere and generous welcome at Hotel Ter Duinen. Classic architecture in the
breakfast room includes a decorative ceiling medallion and tall doorways; there
is a modern, artistic ceiling light as well. The vintage wooden chairs and antique fireplace also add to the traditional feel. A bright, glassed-in
conservatory lounge is off the lobby and provides comfortable armchairs and
lots of natural light. A patio garden includes many flowers and shrubs, but has minimal seating. The common areas are open and include vintage Belgian art
pieces as well as soft yellows and grays in the furniture and on the walls. Even
though it is a historical building, the exterior is well maintained and charming.

Location

Near central Bruges, within walking distance of public transportation, attractions, shops, and restaurants

Away from the central city traffic is the
Hotel Ter Duinen on the Potterierei canal. In a mostly residential area that’s
quiet, this hotel is also walking distance from Grote Markt, Burg, Bruges
Belfry, Bruges Town Hall, and dozens of shops and restaurants. Minnewater,
Concertgebouw, and ‘t Zand Square are a six- to seven-minute drive from the hotel, but public
transportation can also connect passengers to all attractions. Renting a car
is only necessary if you plan on leaving the city center to explore the countryside.

Rooms

Antique yet modern rooms

Rooms are quiet, minimalist, and stylish,
with reclaimed wood desks and cushy vintage chairs in the seating area.
Although the design is simple, the room is clean and modern with a mostly
neutral palette and pops of color in the pillows, drapes, and art. Original
windows add to the historical features of this hotel and some rooms have
beautiful wood beams and small balconies with lovely views of the Potterierei
Canal. Aqua Line amenities are in the contemporary tile bathrooms, but some bathrooms are tiny and only have tubs or showers, not both. The walk-in showers do have
rainfall showerheads though, and there are heated towel racks. No coffee/tea
items or minibar are available, but there are decent-sized flat-screen TVs and
bright lighting.  

Features

Free Wi-Fi, no business or fitness centers

Features at this hotel more closely resemble a bed and breakfast than a full service hotel. Although the Hotel Ter Duinen
lacks business and fitness centers, there is a breakfast room that serves a
continental-style meal of fruits, juice, meats, cheeses, boiled eggs, breads,
and coffee; it receives excellent reviews from past guests. Room service is available and free parking can be found in front of the hotel; however, private
parking costs a daily fee. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout as is a rate reduction card for 10 local museums.
