I hadn't realised, but I had booked an apartment in the centre of the town underneath the famous clock tower rather than in the hotel itself so Valerie came to meet us at the clock tower to give us our keys and show us the apartment, which happens to be in a very famous French film! It was a lovely surprise and our two boys absolutely loved the apartment. It had everything we could've asked for and more especially as we had been planning on a hotel room so we went out into the town and bought dinner to heat up at the apartment instead of eating out (our son has ARFID so eating out is difficult). The town is so cute & the people were incredibly friendly that we wished we had booked more than one night. It was really interesting looking at the photos from the filming and trying to figure out where in town it had been filmed. We had a great nights sleep and went up to the hotel in the morning for a lovely breakfast hosted by Valerie. The Hotel was fabulously decorated for Christmas, which our boys loved (the apartment wasn't decorated). We had a wonderful time and will definitely be back at some point.

Only one small thing, but at night there is a very bright flood light the lights up the clock tower. It didn't affect the bedrooms as they had shutters so thankfully it didn't affect our sleep, but there were no shutters in the living room so we were blinded when walking around the kitchen & sitting in the living room. It was also easy to see in from the road with the lights on too (in my pictures the kitchen is the dark window on the left, but shows the movie poster in the hallway in the lit window in the middle of the 2 dark windows) so it could possibly do with some curtains/blinds/shutters for privacy at night.

Usefully located for the ferry or train if you need an apartment, and everything works well. Steep internal stairs, so not for those with mobility issues, but overall the apartment is comfortable and everything works. Breakfast is good without being outstanding - stanadard continental with a decent number of choices and good quality, but not notable enough that I would see the breakfast itself as a reason to choose here over other places. Overall it is a good option for the area.

Nothing in particular. Communication could have been better, as there is only street parking, but we got no warning that the street in front of the apartment had been torn up for roadworks. We also had to directly ask about breakfast, rather than it being included in instructions. Fairly minor things, as we found street parking very close by, and the owner is responsive, but just easy things to make the process smoother when you've already been travelling all day.

The breakfast is a great mix of French and continental, with fruit and nuts, yoghurt and cereal, pastries and preserves and of course, French cheeses and cut meats - all in a cosy room next to the kitchen. We have stayed here many times and always have our evening meal in the restaurant - simply excellent! All rooms are delightfully decorated in different themes and our dog has been welcome in all! The town's old defence system provides ample space to walk the dog and let him run free.

it's all great - nothing to moan about

The apartment is in the belfry tower in the centre of Bergues. The location could not be better, and although it is in the belfry, it is quite sound proofed and therefore you are right in the thick of things but not bothered by noise of the clock or the town centre. Valerie was very welcoming and attentive, and we enjoyed delicious breakfasts. The beds were comfy, and the apartment had everything we needed, including TV with ability to stream through netflix and disney+. We enjoyed the fact that it was the location of the Ch'ti film. Bergues is a sweet little spot, (shame they were digging up all of the square and roads when we were there), it's a short drive from the beach and Bruges is also quite easily accessible. No issue parking in the square in front of the belfry. Handy for eurotunnel - we would definitely return.

My only small complaint is that there was not a comfy sofa for our family of 4. There was a small sofa which was quite hard and not that comfortable which could sit 2, and there was one arm chair which was ok, and a second hard chair. so one person was always sitting on the hard chair, or otherwise we were 3 squashed on the sofa. Otherwise everything was perfect.

A very friendly welcome from Valerie and husband on arrival. Our room was lovely and comfortable with a super shower . A residents lounge with tea ,coffee , water , port 😀plus sweets , all very welcome We ate in the attached restaurant and the food was lovely and extremely reasonably priced. Breakfast was good as well. All in all a very nice stopover on our long drive to Italy and only 30 minutes from the ferry No hesitation in recommending this property.

Nothing

The staff was super friendly. Even though I arrived after the kitchen was officially closed, they made me a nice dinner, all the while being good humored. The room was big and nicely decorated, the bed comfortable. The bathroom had one of these multi-functional showers. Very nice. The breakfast was good, albeit could use a little more choice.

For the breakfast I would have preferred to have a better choice of salty things, e.g. sausage to put on my bread. Also more choice in bread.

Interesting apartment in the Tower itself, styled according to a film made in the town. Quirky and comfortable. There were music lessons in the same building, which added a nice ambiance. The flat itself was quiet.

Our son has an egg allergy, which we mentioned to everybody in the restaurant. However his plate still arrived with a little dish of mayonnaise. In the end it was fine, but it didn't feel like allergies were well understood by everyone involved, so is a little stressful. Our meals were otherwise excellent.

Good location and we where able to park in the street across from the hotel. Booked a meal in the hotel at night which was excellent but the menu wasn’t in English and the waitress didn’t appear to speak English so we had to get our phones out to translate the menu. The hosts where a lovely couple and very friendly unlike their waitress.

The breakfast was only continental and not much choice but was adequate. Would of liked tea and coffee facilities in the room, that said they had a separate guest lounge that you could go in for refreshments which was a nice touch.

In was in the centre of town with an interesting wooden spiral stair case Bathrooms were well equipped including a washing machine and dryer Spacious rooms and lots of them The main hotel is lovely approx 2min walk Dinner was very good and the staff excellent Valerie treats her guests as friends.

Breakfast was good but we would have like to seen some hot options

This was our second stay, two weeks earlier on our way down to Austria, and then our last night before the Channel Tunnel and home. Once again we had a very comfortable stay, with an excellent dinner, and Valerie was again a kind and thoughtful hostess. In a way it was a pity that we did not have more time to explore this interesting and historical region.
