Brugge and the North Sea Coast Hotels

Brugge is a popular weekend escape, full as it is of romantic suites and secluded hideaways. You'll find old-fashioned accents at most hotels in the "City of Swans." The tourist office can help you make reservations for lodgings in Brugge and the surrounding countryside. On www.brugge.be you'll find an extensive list of hotels. The Bed & Breakfast page has more than 100 entries; staying in these often very picturesque places might be the easiest way to make contact with locals. Rates, which are sometimes higher than in regular hotels, usually include a hearty Belgian breakfast of bread, cereal, cold cuts, cheese, yogurt, eggs, and fruit. Half-board meal plans are also frequently available.
