"In a quiet corner near Bruges’ Lake of Love, Dukes’ Academie offers a city break with just the right amount of poise. A 2023 renovation brought fresh life to this 90-room hotel, where gentle tones, arched breakfast rooms, and a leafy terrace set the tone. The Grote Markt, Halve Maan brewery, and the city’s storybook streets are all within walking distance, but the real surprise might be how tempting it is to linger inside." - Tablet Hotels
