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.

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.

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

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 strongly advise to avoid booking a room in this hotel. Absolutely below any standards. Hotels.com shouldn’t be promoting this hotel in the first place.

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.

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!!!

Perfect spot in Brugge
The lady running the hotel was super friendly and offered local places to eat and see. She also made breakfast and seemed to always go out of her way to ensure our comfort. We stayed on the first floor and had a lovely double window which opened right onto the street while letting a nice breeze blow through. I would highly recommend this place and would certainly ok again!

Great bed and breakfast, convenient location
We were a group of four who stayed here for two nights in the quadruple room. The owner was great and friendly! She gave us tons of information about the events going on and where everything is located. She also gave us a hotel card that gave us a small discount at museums and other places. The building seems outdated but it was clean. The stairs leading to our room were steep and narrow. We didn't have any problems with it, but others might. The hotel is located right behind the theater and was walking distance to everything. Breakfast was fresh and offered many options. Would stay here again!
