Lovely hotel, great location, modern and spotless. We opted for a duplex suite for 2 adults and 2 children which was a really special room. Breakfast was also great with lots of variety

ibis budget Brugge Centrum Station
Room was clean with shower cubicle in the room and separate toilet. Hand soap and shower gel was provided along with hand and shower towels. If driving then park on the upper floor of the station car park as it is easier to go to the hotel. The market square is 20 mins walk away from the hotel.
