Hostel Lybeer Private Rooms just for two! is located in the Historical Center of Bruges.

The location was convenient and easy to get to from the train station (by bus) or to the grand market square. Room was spacious for a shared space with a few others, beds were comfy and sturdy even for bunk beds. The communal space was large and spacious. The décor was also very medieval and cute! Wi-fi was fast and reliable as well.

Charlie Rockets Youth Hostel, hotel in Ostend

Located in the center of Bruges, 1148 feet from Market Square, Charlie Rockets Youth Hostel offers functional accommodations, a bar and a restaurant.

It's as you would expect, don't ask for much. There's a bed, a sink in the room (bonus points for that although the mirror was completely useless), and a place to keep your bags after check-out. On the hallway outside our room there were two shared toilets (people waiting a couple times) and a corner with two showers. The showers had doors that locked, a hook and a shelf, semi separated from the shower (so it's possible to take your things there thou unlikely to keep completely dry).

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The hostel is nice but unfortunately they could not accommodate me in the private room I booked. I was offered a shared dormitory room. It was okay so I opted for staying there and I had a good sleep. There weren't any issues. You could lock your valuables in the lockers.

    Very pleasant to stay. The hotel is right between the city and the sea. It's a big big bonus you can take your dog with you to the hotel room! The hotel has an urban vibe that makes it feel more like youth hostel. It is the right place to stay with friends or family during a weekend getaway.

    Much better than your average youth hostel. Needing to take your own towels (bizarely still standard in International Hostelling) and the lino floor were the only real downers, but it was very clean. Well placed for beaches, port and town centre. Firendly receptionists. Great hostel kithchen. Good, hearty breakfast included. Even the huge school group from UK were remarkably well-behaved. We expected a disturbed night and didn't get one. It was a double room, so no need to cope with a dorm.

    Nice room, bathroom door didn’t lock which wasn’t a problem for us. Very noisy family in adjoining room, a little more sound proofing would be an enormous help. Reception staff were great, bar staff was a little sullen, and bar was very badly stocked, we had to go out to drink sadly. Overall though I would recommend you, great location, lovely breakfast and very helpful staff on the whole.

    Great location! Clean, safe & quiet, even though in the center of the city. The stay really felt like being in a protective cocoon!! I also appreciate the convenience of self check in.

    Possibly the best breakfast in any hotel we've stayed in. Faultless fast wifi throughout. Comfortable bar/lounge area. Quirky decor. Great location close to the beach and the town centre. Is this a 'backpackers hostel for grown-ups'?

    Great location- they could have advised us to reserve parking though as it was full when we arrived. Lovely big family room with separate bunk bed room for the kids. Wonderful breakfast.
