I can't say enough good things about Huis 'T Schaep and about John, one of the owners and our host. John and Rob have restored the former home and studio of famous glass artist Samuel Coucke with such love and attention. It felt like we were staying in an exquisite home of friends who couldn't do enough for us. The art and stained glass were museum quality--I couldn't stop taking pictures of everything. The breakfast was outstanding, and I highly recommend people include it. The room where breakfast is served is enough to warrant a '10' rating for this property. The location was excellent, as well, minutes away from everything. Definitely ask John for his recommendations for dining and where to buy hand-made chocolates (rather than the more commercial places).
We loved everything about the property except getting there from the train station. We walked when we arrived, but we took a taxi when we left. While this property is within walking distance of the train station, the historic cobblestones are everywhere, and it really isn't pleasant to have to roll one's bag over them for long. We learned the hard way.

The owner sets a platinum standard right from the beginning, showing us the facilities and giving us tips on dinners and sights. Our room was spectacular, a super comfy bed, amazing furnishings and lots of light. The bathroom has double sinks, a standalone deep soaking tub and a walk-in shower. Breakfast was gourmet and plentiful. The staff was so attentive, and even helped us with laundry (we'd been traveling for more than a week). This is the best place to stay in Bruges.

Extremely clean and well looked after. John and his brother Micheal were very knowledgeable about the local area and gave us some great places to go which we had never been to before, and this was our 4th visit. We would definitely always stay here when we come to Bruge as we love it, and this B&B was the best place we have stayed in. The breakfast was exceptional, all fresh and cooked when ordered, and there was so much offered. The B&B was immaculate.

The location is perfect, walkable to all main points and not far from train station. Michael greeted us early and even upgraded us to a room that was available earlier and took the time to go over some recommendations and things to see. Breakfast was incredible, such great service and we were so full each time. Also got breakfast a bit earlier on the day we had to leave no problem. The building is also beautiful. Would recommend for anyone coming to Bruges!

The owners and family were exceptionally friendly and helpful and tried to do everything they could to make my stay perfect. From the checking-in process, when they shared their recommendations and went through the city map with me until I was checking out when I was also able to leave my luggage there while I went to explore some more. The breakfast was outstanding, and I was so sad that I was always too full to be able to try everything offered. Also loved the location. It was about 10 minutes walk (with short legs) to the main square and most of the other main sights, and 3 minutes to a main shopping area. I only had time to try 2 of the bars that were within 5 minutes walk from the B&B that were also amazing - one with an amazing atmosphere and the other a beautiful cocktail bar. I felt safe walking around that area relatively late by myself (whilst avoiding tiny, quiet side streets). The history of the house, with its antiques and gorgeous breakfast room, made it a privilege to stay there while being comfortable with the modern bathrooms and AC.
The bed was a little hard, and the pillows were a little flat. However, I didn't mention that to the owner/family, so they didn't have the opportunity to correct that. There were enough pillows so that I could double/triple up, so that wasn't a huge problem.
It was a shame that there is no elevator as I would have loved to stay in the top bedroom suite (although my room was beautiful too) as the top set of stairs is a little tight. However, that is the trade off with an historic home.

John and his brother are hoteliers of the highest caliber. You can tell how much attention to detail went into the space, with period-appropriate pieces throughout the property. We had a truly lovely stay and experience here. Their recommendations were invaluable, and when we continued on to Amsterdam, John provided some wonderfully unique suggestions. Breakfast was a real treat — the pastries were excellent, and the dishes were both delicious and satisfying. A charming stay overall; we would return in a heartbeat and hope they open more properties with the same warmth and character.

Absolutely everything was perfect about our stay at B & B Huis T Schaep. From the moment Michael started to show us on a map what to do where to go you knew everything would be perfect about our stay. John as well would chat with you and always very nice and very helpful with everything. Also Bruges is a very busy place and so easy where we were to to get to the shop and restaurants and yet the street Huis T Schaep is in is nice and quiet but beautiful inside and such a charming place. Food was perfectly done and John was so helpful in making you what you want. And the price for the stay was also really good when you consider how good the place is. Michael also gave us an upgraded room which had a 52 inch Television and a superb sized room and the shower and everything was superbly done. And also what was brilliant was from Huis T Schaep me and my girlfriend Geraldine walked with our case to the Station and was directly just walked for 15 minutes where we always needed a mini cab so 100% sure we will be going back next year and cannot wait. A couple we meet said the same thing so many good reviews have been left and so many people say good things about Michael and John that the very high rating cannot be not true as they are so good with you. Would recommend this play to any one and even if you only go to Hotels try this B & B for once you will love the place.
Absolutely loved everything.
