Good memories from Brugge as my partner shocked me by proposing whilst there, we stayed at this hotel last year and although the hotel and staff were lovely, the room we had was uncomfortably small. We realised afterwards that we had actually been given a single room with an extra bed in it! We are hoping to go back to... More

Stayed here because it cost much less than comparable hotels, and we were pleasantly surprised at how close it was to the city center for the price. We were able to walk everywhere from our hotel door. The free breakfast was also very good, with food that was very fresh and filling. It was a breakfast that I would have... More

I stayed 3 nights at the Floris hotel with a friend .We booked Eurostar on the web and also the hotel. The hotel is 3* and we found it very satisfactory. It is close to the centre of the city and next to the dual carrageway. We walked to the centre market square in about 7 mins., the railway station... More

We used a Groupon deal to book this hotel therefore making a saving of about 50%. We were given rooms on the ground floor. On first sight there was a nice patio outside and the rooms were small but clean. However during the night a staff member walked up and down the corridor outside our room (wooden floors outside bedrooms,... More

We checked in at the Floris hotel and were immediately charged an additional 25 Euro on top of our pre paid reservation. I thought it might have been extra taxes (we travel around Europe often and this is fairly common), but no explanation of the extra charges. The front desk clerk was very unprofessional. They do not any free parking,... More

This is an hotel with a chequered history. Up to 4 years ago it was privately owned, but sadly the owners did not invest any money in the hotel and it became tired, jaded and very dirty. The hotel was then purchased by the Floris group and they too did not initially inject any money into the hotel. However, all... More
