Best Business Hotels in Bruges

Occupying a 17th-century monastery, the NH Brugge looks quaint from the outside, though dated interiors and modern add-ons detract from the picturesque first impression. Its position is particularly convenient, however, as it's easily accessed by car, train, and especially bus -- and is also just 10 minutes' walk from Bruges' medieval center. Room quality can vary, with Standard Rooms looking tired and higher-tier rooms and suites finished with higher-end, period-inspired furniture. A cozy bar with a fireplace makes for a very pleasant place to unwind with a Belgian beer, and the restaurant caters to both families and business guests.

The historic Grand Hotel Casselbergh Bruges is a spacious and charming hotel with an amazing downtown location. It’s within walking distance of restaurants, shops, public transportation, and attractions. The property is full of character and includes original, historic touches such as fireplaces and exposed wood beams. Rooms are big and quiet with antique details and beautiful, modern bathrooms, but some rooms pick up street noise and in rooms with vaulted ceilings, the wood beams can be a touch low. There is free Wi-Fi, on-site parking (for a fee), an excellent breakfast at the restaurant, and meeting spaces available. 

Hotel Dukes' Palace is one of the top luxury hotels in Bruges, and offers a luxurious experience throughout, from the doormen service to the tasty breakfast buffet (which is a highlight). The 110 rooms are classic in style with features such as beautiful paintings, dramatic curtains, and chandeliers -- though double beds are made up of two beds pushed together, and not every room has coffee facilities. Features include a fitness center, spa with sauna, a fine dining restaurant, and a stylish lounge. The hotel has six venues for hosting events, making it a good pick for business travelers. In warm weather, guests can enjoy the outdoor terrace that looks out on the beautiful garden area. 

The upper-mid-range Hotel Prinsenhof Bruges has an excellent central location and is within walking distance to shops, attractions, and restaurants. Rooms are updated with contemporary floral decor but have retained their historical charm and the bathrooms are modern and large. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout and the hotel is pet-friendly; however, pets incur a daily fee. There is on-site parking (for a fee) but some rooms receive parking area noise. This hotel does not have a fitness center, meeting rooms, or spa, but there is a lovely outdoor terrace, business center, and free guided tours.  

The 45-room Hotel De Tuilerieen mixes the historical and the contemporary in an upscale way, creating a comfortable, welcoming atmosphere throughout. It is in the heart of Bruges on the Dijver Canal and within walking distance to restaurants, shops, and attractions; however, this sometimes results in noise reaching the rooms. Grand furniture, pops of color, and thoughtful extras decorate the elegant yet modern rooms and the bathrooms are large and appealing. Original features can be seen throughout the hotel and there is free Wi-Fi, a wellness center, and butler service by request. On-site parking is available, but costs a daily fee, and the breakfast, although wonderful, is expensive.
