I spent 3 nights at the Portinari during a congress in Bruges. We selected this hotel amongst the hotels proposed by the congress organization for the location: walking distance from the congress center, and from the restaurants. The hotel is affectively nicely located, with a very convenient (and cheap) public car park. The hotel claims 4 stars, but the room... More

Overall good hotel. Slight smell as you walk into the lobby. Luckily we were on the 5th floor so the smell disappeared. Great location overlooking T'Zand square. Excellent new years eve celebrations in the square. Staff were very helpful during our stay, breakfast was good with plenty of selection including hot options. Decor throughout the hotel was very modern and... More

This hotel is in a great spot in bruges just 5 minutes walk from the town centre. There are many bars and restaurants nearby. The hotel itself is not 4star. Breakfast is ok but our room was really dated and shabby and the staff could have been friendlier. More

We stayed here in September for one night and really regret it. I read other tripadvisor reviews about the smell and hoped (mistakenly) that the problem would have been fixed, however our room and all of the hallways were filled with an unpleasant smell. Aside from this, the rooms were VERY basic, haven't been refurbished or even cosmetically maintained in... More

As soon as we arrived in the lobby we were greeted by the smell of an open sewer. The lady who checked us in was very business like. Not a single smile on her face. All the way to our room we were surrounded by a combined smell of air refresher and sewer. Our junior suite was not very clean... More

We are sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy your stay in our hotel. The value for money that we offer, and which is appreciated by many does not seem to meet with your standards. Our check-out time is 11.00 a.m. If you consider that too early, you can always ask at the front desk if you can stay in... More

Bruges is an incredible, fairy-book city and this hotel is in its center. The hotel is within a 5 or 10 minute walk to most of the major attractions, and is also situated next to a couple of great restaurants, and about 10 minutes (walk) from the train station. It's a perfect place to stay if you're in Bruges for... More

The Portinari is a very nice small 4-star hotel in a very good location in mid-town. Check-in was very easy by friendly staff. Elevator. Clean room on 3rd floor was facing the front square, no street sounds to hear due to double, double-glazed windows, even though the sqare and neighboring establishments can be very lively, amazing. Room was of adequate... More

Hotel Portinari is in a great location in a fabulous city. We could walk to everything in Bruges. Many restaurants and sites are just steps away. The hotel is modern and tastefully decorated. Staff is helpful and accomodated our every need. You can't go wrong if you stay at this hotel. More
