Hotels Near De Scute vzw in Blankenberge

I am really surprised by the negative comments on this hotel because we spent a great family trip with our dog (which was very well welcomed with a €15/day surcharge). Positive points: very well located just next to the dam and shops, adorable and completely bilingual staff, renovated room and just spacious for us 4, comfortable bedroom, office, camping spaces, connected TV, lift, The Aazaert Hotel is located just apart, with the open pool up to 23:00, the breakfast offered at the Aazaert or Saint-Sauveur hotel (which are partner hotels) is certainly very expensive (€18/person) but very excellent (sweet/salt buffet and really very varied). The small negative notes: the hotel's offered parking price (30€/day), but to note that you will not find a really cheaper parking nearby, the whole centre is limited to 2 hours and private parking costs 27€/24h in the weekend! We parked our car outside the center and market ... Also, the absence of takes next to bed was a bit binding. Attention, there is a lift, but you still need to go a few steps (sometimes without ramps) which can be complicated for people with reduced mobility. I see several comments complaining about the sound of the rooms ... I really don't care about notifying. So I recommend this hotel and I will not hesitate to go back there if I return to Blanckenberge.

Immaculately presented fairly new hotel right beside the railway station, but without any disturbance from the trains. I'd a front facing room overlooking the church and the noise insulation was faultless. The weather was very cold but the room was easily kept very warm. Enough room for a solo guest and sufficient storage - only negative was none of the coat hangers had a bar on them to hang trousers over. At quiet times the reception desk is unstaffed and you need to check-in at the adjoining Mercure - breakfast is also served there on quiet days. The buffet selection at both hotels is to very good standard. A very secure hotel as you need a 6 digit PIN to access the main door, lift and bedroom. The price however wasn't ”Budget”, but was in line with an expensive cost of living compared to the UK where I live. I'd be delighted to stay here again.

I stayed at Hotel Astoria with my family in August 2022. This is one of the priciest hotels in De Haan which itself is an expensive city. To start with the hotel does not have a step-free entrance, quite shocking in this day and age so if you are travelling with lots of luggage, have a family with a push-chair (like us) or a wheel-chair user rule out staying here straight away. There are about ten high steps to access the hotel, staff offer no help instead they actually look at you like you are a nuisance. At arrival, the check-in staff tried to charge us for the extra bed in the room without bothering to see the booking so be careful if travelling with a family. We were told we can have a complimentary drink from their bar. When trying to claim this offer the staff makes you feel like you are a freeloader, pure rude behaviour followed by a list of drinks that the offer doesn't cover. Basically you can only have a beer or a soft drink. They say they have parking on premises but it's actually just free off-street parking. On the day of our departure there was a fare in the city center so we had to park our car 2miles away. The staff prefers business from walk-in customers in bar and restaurant over hotel guests. Attitude towards children was specially cold and distant, again making us feel like we are causing them extra work.

The location of this hotel is excellent, in the alley next to the market square, low-key and quiet. Breakfast is very rich and healthy! There are several pictures in the hotel that are very noticeable, should be a biking cross-country news picture, and clippings of major historical events.

So pleased we found this gem of a hotel. Ideally placed for wandering around Bruges, we were able to store our overnight back in the luggage store, then explore before check- in opened. We were warmly welcomed by all staff whenever we had interaction with them and the service was very efficient. We stayed in room 002 which was located through the car park, but was nicely tucked away and quiet….. other than being able to hear the coffee machine through the wall of the breakfast room! It wasn’t a problem though. The room was spacious and had all amenities you would expect to find. The bed was comfortable and air con is available. We did request a double rather than twin, but had two beds pushed together with a single quilt each. It wasn’t a problem for us, but not what we asked for. We didn’t mention it, but I’m sure if we had they would have sorted it. The shower was good, and teas & coffee is available in the room. There was a fridge, but no milk. I’m sure you could ask for milk at reception if desired. All areas were exceptionally clean, and we did check out the spa, but it’s a bit dingy in the basement. Shame not to have a pool, but there is a small gym for those who need more than the extensive walking you’ll be doing when exploring Bruges itself! We did consider parking at the hotel, but they wanted us to leave a key and access is tight! We have a large car, so decided to park on Bevrijdingslaan, one of the free parking areas just a short walk from the hotel. Other car parks are available, but we were able to leave our car here for free overnight. The hotel were very helpful prior to our stay in advising the closest car parks to the venue.

Was a nice little old-fashioned hotel. Unfortunately, it was not equally clean everywhere. Especially above and below the bed. My daughter dropped something and it hadn't been cleaned under the bed for a long time. Old bottle of water. Very nice and breakfast was perfect. The location is great, but beware of parking.

This is a good place to stop over. The bikes at 10 Euros makes it a very good location. Very family orientated. A bit annoying having the laundry lorry outside your room at 7am but overall I would recommend and return. Towels are very small for some reason
