Best Hotels in Bruges with a Canal View

Bruges is known for being a beautiful fairytale of a destination, but the most charming and historic part of Bruges sits within the loop of the main canal. This is where the most impressive of Bruges’ medieval architecture is clustered, along narrow, cobbled streets, which open out onto grand squares, or tiny parks or bridges. If you're planning to book a hotel in this part of town, it would be an even better idea to book one with a canal view. We've searched through our recommendation for the city and below you'll find what we think are the best hotels with a canal view in Bruges, from chic B&Bs to five star luxury pads.
