  • The Basilica of the Holy Blood is a Roman Catholic minor basilica in Bruges, Belgium. Originally built in the 12th century as the chapel of the residence of the Count of Flanders, the church houses a venerated relic of the Holy Blood allegedly collected by Joseph of Arimathea and brought from the Holy Land by Thierry of Alsace, Count of Flanders. Built between 1134 and 1157, it was promoted to minor basilica in 1923. The 12th-century basilica is located in the Burg square and consists of a lower and upper chapel. The lower chapel dedicated to St. Basil the Great is a dark Romanesque structure that remains virtually unchanged. The venerated relic is in the upper chapel, which was rebuilt in the Gothic style during the 16th century and renovated multiple times during the 19th century in Gothic Revival style. Bruges is the capital and largest city of the province of West Flanders in the Flemish Region of Belgium, in the northwest of the country. The historic city centre is a prominent World Heritage Site of UNESCO. Along with a few other canal-based northern cities, such as Amsterdam, it is sometimes referred to as The Venice of the North. Bruges has a significant economic importance thanks to its port and was once one of the world's chief commercial cities. Bruges is well known as the seat of the College of Europe, a university institute for European studies. #LIFEATEXPEDIA #TRAVEL #HILLBILLYINPARIS #BRUGES

Nice hotel in the center of Bruges!

Perfect for what we needed whilst we enjoyed beautiful Bruges and the beers! We were met upon arrival and given our key for the room, a number to call if anything was needed and the option to eat next door at the family restaurant if we wanted. We spent most of our time out and about and had our hotel room to shower and sleep in. Thank you.

Despite reviews citing thin walls, we did not experience that. Yes, you can hear other guests, but only if they were talking loud or coughing, etc. The stairs are steep, and the steps are narrow. There's no elevator, but that's part of its charm. Nice room, with a good mattress, instant hot water, nice shower (the height adjustment was missing, but not an issue for me). One of the two large windows opened fully, allowing us to get chill night air while we slept. Not much of a view, but we didn't care since we were not in the room much. Very clean, but no daily housekeeping. I'd stay here again, especially considering the host changed or room to the nearest at the top of the steps due to my wife's knee condition.

After reading the reviews, we were apprehensive over our stay. Our first impressions was that it was a direlict home, but someone’s home non-the-less. The person on front desk explained the family room had bed bugs, therefore they had given us two bedrooms right at the top, it was a trek (and we are a healthy fit family), 6 flights with narrow steps. The gentleman helped me with my bag. This was the last we saw of him. Having stayed for 3 nights, we can see what others have commented on. The rooms we had (only ended up using the room with the toilet and shower) were small. The shower can only be described as a portable shower that has been fitted into the room (rather than a shower room), it was small. But had good strength and heat. The room was not very clean (squashed gnat marks on the walls). Floor was rather dirty (thankfully we brought our flip flops. Only a fan, no other facilities (like tea/coffee). We only used the room to sleep in at night. The beds were comfortable, but on the last night, we did not have the fan on and my son was bitten by gnats and what looks like lots of little bites (possible bed bugs). Would I book again, most likely not. The only real positive was the location. Very central to everything we needed.

The place itself is very very dirty, it has a lot of mold. Me and my friend went and we were feeling lightheaded. Please don’t stay here, it’s not healthy and it’s an unsafe please. There was no one in the reception and when they guy appeared he went to the room to close the window, that can tell you something. This place it’s not appropriate for people. We only stay there for less than 2 hours and we lost our money. Please, please don’t stay here. It’s a really bad place to stay.

DONT STAY HERE!!! Extremely over priced stayed here for 2 nights and the first night was kept up to 3am with young people shouting and running about with no staff to be seen to keep them quite. The building had very thin walls and was very old with the stairs extremely steep and nearly falling apart. Bed had bed bugs in and have come home with lots of bites all around my body. Only good part was the positioning of the hotel other than that it was a shocking stay for the price. Pictures look so much nicer than it actually is and there is not restraint or breakfast

It does not have an elevator so it is difficult to access with suitcases and small children since the stairs are very vertical. I didn't like that the toilet was not well done. The walls near the bed had snot stuck to it for a long time. Some accessories such as the shower were in poor condition and the bathroom curtain was dirty, and when you bathe you throw a lot of water on the floor.

We booked last minute after an issue with our original accommodation. When we arrived the door was locked and nobody answered the phone for about 30 mins. When they finally answered we were told that the hotel didn’t work with hotels.com, but that they could provide a room for cash. I said that we wouldn’t be paying again at which point the owner became very rude and hung up the phone. Ended up staying at the lovely Hotel Rosenburg. Avoid Hotel Cavalier at all costs!!!

This property was not up to standard. The desk was not staffed at all, the linen was worn and had stains, doors to the bathroom wouldn’t close, the shower and towel rails were falling off the wall. There was mould on the walls, broken door handles, curtains didn’t cover the window. Pillows were uncomfortable and the contact number did not work. Location was the only good thing, but that’s because Bruges is a walkable city. Would highly recommend looking elsewhere.

I would not recommend this property. We found bed bugs during our stay, fortunately we were only staying two nights and saw them on the second night so did not have to rearrange. Could not tell the owner/manager as apart from when we checked in there was never anyone at the desk. Tried to contact the hotel after our stay but never received any response. Expedia also attempted to contact with no luck. I would have expected at least an apology for the conditions, so rude and extremely poor service. The hotel is also pretty run down, very expensive for what you get. The location is the only good thing, very near the centre.

Bedbugs and run down hotel. Stay Away!

Bedbugs and run down hotel. Doorhandle fell off and smell of mould when entering. At checkin they charge touristtax in cash eventhough touristtax already was payed to hotels.com. We woke up in the middle of the night with hundreds of bedbugs crawling all over us and the bed. Had multiple bites and had to get out of the room around 0300. We had 2 different rooms, so since we had 3 kids with us, we spent some hours in the other room before escaping the premises around 0600. Had to wait a week before they gave the money for the room back, and only got refunded one of 2 rooms since we "used the other one". Stay away!

No thanks!

Unfortunately I had little time to shop around for somewhere else to stay for my trip to Bruges as everywhere was getting booked up quickly, I found the hotel, saw there were few rooms left, quickly checked the photos and star rating and hoped for the best ..my logic was A £300 3 star hotel can't be that bad.. cant it? Later that day when I had more time I read the reviews and researched the hotel properly. After reading reviews ,I discovered the 3 stars advertised were really 2 stars, and the reviews were not good at all. Lots of negative reviews ,numerous mentions of bedbugs ,dirty rooms ,dirty bathrooms etc.. With the risk of potential bed bugs I decided not to stay there and requested A refund ,the hotels.com staff did what they could but the hotel refused to give me my money back. An expensive lesson ,and admittedly my own fault for rushing in. The idea of sharing our bed with bugs and infesting our home on our return put us off completely.
