Brugge (West Flanders - Belgium)

Luxury boutique hotels in Bruges

Home to Europe's best-preserved medieval buildings, Bruges is Belgium's most visited town. Suspended in time 500 years ago by the silting of its river, this 13th-century city is blessed with two medieval cores, the Markt and the Burg, and some of the country's most compelling art collections.

In the middle of summer Bruges teems with tourists; out of season its beauty is an easier delight to behold. The whole historic centre of Bruges was added to Unesco's World Heritage List in 2000.

The heart of Bruges, surrounded by an almost continuous ring of canals, is the best preserved example of medieval Flanders. Bruges, known as 'the Venice of the North', is an ideal destination for a romatinc weekend in a charming hotel.

Locals will tell you Bruges is a city of fine and fair weather. They might have a point come summer, when the weather is temperate, climbing to around 23°C (73°F) but there is little let up from the cold between November and January.
