Sleek Bruges hotel near the historic centre

• Artsy abode: Step across the Hotel Portinari threshold into a hushed, calming atmosphere with a design that blends the city’s rich cultural heritage with a contemporary edge. A lick of dark paint, hardwood floors and chandeliers set a lavish tone for your arrival, and modern, chic guestrooms each gesture to a great Belgian painter.

• Dine in style: Your hotel’s steakhouse and winebar is a snug and sleek space to enjoy some mouthwatering fare. Decorated with dark wood furniture, black marble, plants and glowing backlighting, the restaurant is the perfect spot to savour a succulent steak just how you like it or sample some wines with a tip from the sommeliers. You can also enjoy sharing plates out on the sunny terrace.

• Historic scenes: After a delightful breakfast of fresh pastries, coffee and more, wander out onto your hotel’s cobblestone street and soak up some old-world magic. One of Bruges’ medieval city gates is just a stone’s throw away, and ’t Zand Square is also very close – a lively and atmospheric square lined with trees and lovely cafés.
